Melbourne Snake Shops

Whats the best Snake shops in melbourne, there are plenty of reptile shops. but most only have 2 -3 snakes on display.. im wanting to go to one that has a decent variety..

So far i have been to Upmarket Pets in the city, and Amazing Amazon in Glen Waverly..

i was gonna try and check out "melbourne reptile warehouse" in Preston today..

anyone know of other good shops ?..

is Melbourne reptile warehouse worth checking out?

Is this for a snake or for supplies? If it's a snake you're after IMO you'd be much better off to go through breeders rather than stores.

Melbourne Reptile Warehouse has lots of animals on display but do yourself a favour and

a) Got to the VHS reptile expo


b) Visit the Herp Trader at http://www.herptrader.com.au

Kersten is right - you will do much better purchasing directly from the breeder. Any Tom, Dick or Harry can buy a bunch of snakes and sell them off. A breeder on the other hand must know what they are doing or they will not succeed.

bunnerong in frankston is good as far as petshops go,helpful staff, healthy animals and a good selection to look at..buy from a breeder though
the first shops you mentioned are not good examples of good shops
