We will aim to ship orders as soon as we can, often within the next day or two. Any enclosures that must be built or customised will obviously take longer to dispatch and we will keep you informed of our progress and any changes to dispatch date via email.

Please refer to our shipping and returns section for prices and returns practices.

Please refer to our shipping and returns tab for any and all shipping and returns rates and terms

We will try our best to give you a mixture of both genders if you have ordered several inverts, however due to the difficult nature of sexing any juvenile insect (and a lot of adult ones!) we can not make any guarantees.

We keep put invertebrates in a collection of adequately sised storage boxes with air holes or in mesh cages for the best ventilation. We do our best not to let any of our containers get too crowded and most are kept in the greenhouse with the plants for the best temperature and humidity control.

We have an indoor greenhouse equipped with specialised growing light and air humidifier for optimum growing conditions

We first treat and freeze the branches and logs we get to kill off any initial organisms which night cause issues. We then strip the bark and less aestethic looking parts off of the branches by hand and sand it to give a nice light wood finish that will look great in any terrarium! We then freeze the log once more to be sure that will be no contamination or issues. Shaved bark like this is very good for millipede enclosures as they will love chewing on the soft deadwood underneath.

Our bioactive soil is teeming with detritivores and microorganisms such as springtails whilst being (mostly) clear of negative organisms such as fungus gnats and harmful mites. This bioactive soil will need to be changed and cleaned far less often than just regular soil - especially when paired with some ispods!

Due to the nature of posting live animals and plants we can not offer delivery to outside the UK on them at the moment. If you wish to order an enclosure from abroad please send us a message on the contact us page and we can sort out a postage quote for you.

Absolutely! Just drop us a message on the contact us tab and we'll see what we can do

For the time being plants will be sent potted in the pot size indicated on the listings

We are more than happy to accept bulk orders on enclosures but due to us only just starting out and colonies still establishing we can't offer wholesale on the other products in our store. If you're unsure you van always drop us a message in the contact us page and we can try to work something out.

Our stock will be constantly evolving, growing and changing so drop us a message with any requests and we'll see what we can do.

On receipt of a livestock order during winter it is very important to warm them up SLOWLY. They animals may get quite cold during transit, which shouldn't do then any harm provided they are left to warm up to room temperature for a couple of hours BEFORE they are moved into any heated enclosure. Sudden changes of temperature can be harmful for cold blooded animals.
