    Reptile Supplies

    Where you go to get your reptile supplies, it could be at a store or on the web it doesnt matter, also where do you get your reptile racks or cages ( the ones that are all connected like racks but with glass infront, im not sure what there called.)

    Re: Reptile Supplies

    I buy bedding(when I don't use newspaper) from walmart, or tractor supply. I got some of my racks from Neil Golli at GolliReptiles.com and others from Boaphile(don't reccomend them unless you have plenty of time to wait) and also from the snakeshak people(mind is blank.. who is that?). Incubator from the same folks.. geez... I can't think of the name.. Nature's Spirit? I think that's it.
    Rats from my local supplier and from Rodentpro.com
    I think that' about all I ever buy.

    Re: Reptile Supplies

    I get supplies from wherever they are cheapest, but still good quality.

    Some places are:
    Petsmart (due to mngr discount of friend) - for rodent bedding and small odds and ends.
    ReptileBasics.com - for cleaning supplies, heat supplies, and cage advice.
    ReptileSupply.com - for small odds and ends like decor.
    Feed stores for rodent food (Mazuri 6f)
    reptile expos for snake bedding (Harlan Teklad)
    and LOWES for everything else! I prefer building my own display cages and racks.

    Re: Reptile Supplies

    Online especially for flexwatt/heating stuff www.reptilebasics.com (tell Rich BPNet sent you LOL)

    For bedding I go to WalMart or TSC but never pet stores since they seem to overcharge on their stuff.

    For hides and such I hit the dollar store and get inventive.

    For racks we build our own (tons of plans and examples here on this site and all over the web). Tubs we buy from WalMart (employee discount - gotta love it!).

    For feeder rodents, we breed and raise our own and make their housing ourselves out of big plastic storage bins.
