As a 5* licensed reptile shop, we provide expert advice on choosing the right pet, along with guidance on their care, diet, and suitable enclosures.
Reptiles for Sale: Our collection includes a variety of species, all bred with full pedigrees, so you’ll know the exact morphs, traits, and hatch dates of your new pet. Whether you’re looking for a gecko or snake, we allow you to choose based on your preferred pet’s personality and how they interact with you.

We’re also happy to arrange viewings in advance, either online, by phone, or email. Want to meet a specific reptile? We recommend booking a viewing before visiting, as we host reptile experiences on Saturdays and weekday mornings/evenings.

Cassandra Chapman30/10/2024 Thank you for such a lovely reptile experience today. We thoroughly enjoyed handling and learning all about your beautiful reptiles. You guys were super welcoming and friendly and very knowledgeable, could tell you really have a passion for this and it really shined through. In our group we had Autistic children and they had the best time, surroundings were clean and calm and the reptiles looked well cared for! Look forward to coming again :) Emily Fisher21/07/2024 DJL exotics have been amazing. I phoned them with an enquiry regarding stripe corn snakes. They had eggs incubating at the time and offered to call when they hatched. They phoned me as promised and had some stunning baby corn snakes! We travelled quite a way to see them. They have lots of beautiful reptiles and we were lucky to purchase one of the perfect little baby corn snakes! Highly recommend! Paul White30/06/2024 We visited as as a family of 6 for a handling experience for a 12 year old's birthday and had a brilliant time. David and Helen were very friendly and accommodating and their wealth of knowledge was fascinating. We saw, stroked and held a wide variety of snakes, geckos, and skinks, all of which were calm, friendly and safe to handle, the whole experience was very inclusive and hands-on, even for our youngest toddler. Very clean facilities and the animals were clearly healthy and well-kept. A much better insight and world of reptiles than you might experience elsewhere as the knowledge and devotion was clear to see. Would recommend. Many thanks to DJL Exotics. R02/06/2024 What a wonderful place! We booked a group booking for my reptile mad daughter’s birthday! We were greeted by Dave and Helen who were such wonderful hosts and had a wealth of knowledge about all of the lovely species. I would highly recommend DHL exotics to anyone, they were fantastic with the members of our party who were a little scared too. Fabulous 5* experience, can’t wait to visit again! Terry Dwight14/05/2024 I live very near to Dave and Helen, owners of DJL Exotics and they were very happy for me to visit with my young granddaughter for an animal experience. As she is just 4, I thought our visit might be quite short but Dave and Helen gave up an hour and a half of their time and we were both treated to an amazing hands on experience! I certainly learnt a lot and my granddaughter couldn't wait to tell mummy and daddy. The couple are friendly, extremely knowledgeable and responded to our questions appropriately. The animals are well cared for, handled regularly and most have a fascinating story regarding their personality and preferences for people. I have since looked at their website and blog which are excellent. It was an amazing session which I can recommend. Farran Wright23/12/2023 We have just bought our first leopard gecko from Helen & David. Their website is full of helpful advice and guidance, and on top of that they have answered questions any quickly! They are really knowledgeable, and clearly love what they do! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. Thank you again x Xanienu XANI26/11/2023 Brilliant people very friendly and very helpful, highly recommend to anyone looking to buy a gecko!! Joe Lennon04/08/2023 Got my Kenyan Sand Boa from DJL and honestly I'm super impressed with their service and would happily recommend them to anyone looking to buy a KSB. Even months after the purchase David was happy to answer a silly question about KSB behaviour during feeding. Their customer service is second to none. If I ever decide to get a Gecko you can guarantee DJL will be my first contact! Tina J29/07/2023 Full of knowledge and so very helpful. My son is overjoyed with his gecko. Super couple and a great place to get our first reptile. Thank you guys. Nova Jarratt01/05/2023 Thoroughly impressed and happy with Helen and David's service! Got my first little gecko (now named Loki) last week who was delivered to me Via Courier. Got here super chill and in amazing health. He's still settling in a bit but he has gotten used to me and is eating well. He's a little feisty boy and a mischievous one aswell. Both Helen and David were super helpful in giving me loads of info about him and organising a courier for him to be delivered to me. Would highly reccomend DJLExotics! Thank you so much Nova and Loki💛
