“Long Time Satisfied Customer”

Brian M.

5/24/20

I've done business with Underground Reptiles for probably close to 8 years now. I've visited the store a number of times and have had some of my best pets in my collection purchased online and have never had any issues. It's a pretty busy store but the employees will still help you as much as they can and this goes for online as well. I just received an albino male bci yesterday. He's a gorgeous snake with a great temperament and no health issues. He's awesome!!

“Dead frogs and lies”

Mason M.

3/26/20

I ordered three red eyed tree frogs and one came in dead, while the other two were very malnourished and beat up. I've worked for years in reptile care, and I recognized immediately that these animals were kept in poor condition. There were bruised, thin, and after less than a week another of the frogs has died. After I posted a review it was removed without any reason given, and Underground reptiles insisted that the frogs were in good condition.

“Great service, malnourished toad”

June 3rd, 2020

I ordered my cane toad two days ago and got it today in the mail. Underground reptiles was definitely the cheapest. Although my toad is alive and kicking, it is VERY skinny. You can see it's poor bones poking out from under its skin. I get that the toad hasn't eaten for 12 hours but it shouldn't be that skinny. Underground reptiles should maybe do a better job feeding/taking care of their animals. Other than that, great purchase. I am planning on fattening up my toad so they're healthy again.

Payton, Thank you very much for this review and your business! Sometimes transit can cause dehyration and that what that looks like here. We take steps prior to shipping to make sure that does not happen but sometimes it does and we apologize. It looks like you are taking proper steps and rehydrate this animal. Please keep us updated and give us a call if you have any questions or conerns

“Bob”

August 4th, 2020

Ordered a baby giant day gecko that my 4 year old affectionately named "Bob". This was my first time ordering an animal on the internet, as normally I would go to the local pet store, but I knew I wanted a CB baby, and with pet stores it's hard to feel confident with what you are getting. In any case, Bob is happy and healthy, and is already eating!(I have read that sometimes it is difficult to get them to feed after being shipped)

Thank you

UGR A. – Underground Reptiles Rep 8/5/20

That is a great picture of Bob:) Yes, it typically takes a couple days for them to get used to their new environment. Thank you very much for your business and review!

“High quality animals”

June 13th, 2020

I ordered 3 dart frogs on Friday, and they processed and shipped within a few hours, and arrived less than 24 hours later, on the other side of the country. I can't think of another company that ships animals faster. Apart from the shipping, the frogs are in great health, and were packaged wonderfully. There isn't another company out there that can pair this level of high quality animals with top notch customer support. I would highly recommend them for all your reptile and amphibian needs.

“Issues addressed professionally”

July 4th, 2020

Receive a female Emerald Swift through UPS overnight. She arrived in a state of what appeared to be false hibernation. Contacted the company, who responded right away via email. My swift unfortunately did not survive but, while she was received an email very day from Ryan B checking on her and asking questions to try and figure out what was going on. Things can happen in transit. Specially going from coast to coast. Received a new Swift today and she is doing great.

“Western Hognose”

July 15th, 2020

I ordered my baby Western Hognose yesterday, and today she arrived in perfect condition! Underground Reptiles has been amazing throughout the entire process.They kept me updated every step of the way and after she arrived they called to make sure she was doing well (the package was slightly delayed by FedEx) and told me to call if I had any questions. I've already been recommending them to friends because their customer service is amazing and my animal is beautiful. Thank you Underground Reptiles!

“Toad-ally awesome!”

May 28th, 2020

They were so prompt with keeping me informed about my order and new family members. All arrived well packaged and seemingly healthy. Maybe a little tired of being in a box for a day but good all the same. The toads are huge! The turtles tiny! Just like was advertised. I will definitely go with underground reptile for future purchases.

P.S. the wide array of animals offered alone is worth checking them out. You never know, you might find your new pet!

June 25th, 2020

I ordered the antilles pink toe tarantula for my dad for Father's Day. He's big on Tarantulas so this was the perfect gift. He's going to fall in love when he home from work tonight. The Tarantula is very active and it just walking all over his new home. Thank you Underground Reptiles. I'll definitely order from you again for some frogs.

“Bought from them twice now!”

July 6th, 2020

I have bought from underground reptiles twice now. Both times the reptiles came in perfectly healthy and packaged professionally. My first order was three baby Nile monitors and the second order a few months later was a baby gold Tegu. They even called me to ask about how the order was received. They ship overnight and communicate very well. I will for sure be ordering more in the future.

“Animals died in a day”

May 25th, 2020

I have over 30 reptiles in my collection. I bought a giant waxy tree frog and a adult savannah a while ago and the both died after a day or two of having them. The savannah was a twig when I got it and wouldn't eat and the tree frog wax dark green and really dry I did my best trying to keep them alive but eventually they passed. I emailed them about the savannah, they messaged back once then just ignored me. I just messaged them about the tree frog and doubt they're gonna help.

“My New Babies!!!”

July 17th, 2020

I received my two Russian Tortoises and they are so cute! Their a little shy at the moment but they'll get use to me soon and they love crawling around the house. Underground shipped them quickly and very safely and I'll be ordering more from them soon. So far so good! Definitely looks good and great prices for my new babies!! Male and female too

“I bought a baby albino hognose”

July 18th, 2020

I had been looking for an albino hognose for a while, and came across Undergroubd Reptiles. I'm usually wary if I can't see the actual animal, but decided to take a chance given the great price. My snake arrived in perfect condition and is GORGEOUS. They even shipped same day. I honestly could not be happier and will definitely be purchasing from them again in the future.

“Beautiful chameleon baby”

August 5th, 2020

shipped and received exactly as ordered and specified. Baby chameleon came to us healthy and beautiful. Only issue we have is it is smaller than the 3 to 4 inch baby we ordered... he's only about 2 inches in length right now. Other than that we are super happy and satisfied and will definitely use undergroundreptiles.com for our future needs, highly recommend!!!

“Beautiful chameleon”

July 23rd, 2020

My order was shipped right out and I got notifications along the way, so that I didn't have to wonder what was going on. When UPS encountered a delay, I called UG reptiles, and they were very helpful and reassuring. Then, they called me to let me know about the delay. They reminded me of my live arrival guarantee. My chameleon arrived in great shape. Alert and well. I will definitely buy from here again.

We do have a rep constantly checking to make sure the packages have no issues in transit. If we do see a delay, we let you know and call UPS to get to the bottom of it for you. We do pack accordingly just in case there are any holdups. So happy to hear that your chameleon arrived safe and sound Emily.

“Amazing frogs for a great price!!!”

June 13th, 2020

My first purchase of a red eyed tree frog and also from Underground Reptiles I wasn't sure what to expect ordering amphibians out of state. I was not disappointed in the service from start to finish. Quick reply to my questions and needs, friendly service, and fast on time shipping. A very smooth and easy transaction to have a amphibian or reptile of your liking!!!! I recommend purchasing thru Underground Reptiles, I will definitely be buying from them again and again!!! Thanks again!!

“First time ordering a reptile”

August 5th, 2020

This was my first time ever ordering a live reptile, and I'm glad it was through Underground Reptiles, I placed my order but then called them because I wanted to request a male tokay gecko, the girl I spoke with was super nice and even changed my shipping method to FedEx since they run earlier at our house. The Tokay Gecko arrived and was in great shape. Hes a bit skinny, but I plan on fixing that.

“Here and Healthy”

August 7th, 2020

Extremely happy with my purchase. They contacted me in advance to make sure I was still good to be there, and to address the weather/heat for the day of delivery. I received shipping info both from UPS and Underground Reptiles, both by text and email, so I felt in the loop the whole time, and she looks great! I can't wait to watch her grow.

“The BEST Place for Your Exotic Animal Needs”

May 27th, 2020

I discovered Underground Reptiles through a YouTube channel called Chandler's Wild Life. He has a buddy (also with a channel) Tyler Nolan Tattoos. I am thoroughly impressed with the customer service (as I was a total pain) and the quality of goods. I purchased a baby blue tongue skink set up and a baby Halmahera Blue Tongue Skink (Tiliqua Gigas Gigas) My little one looked so good! Really healthy and the colors are just lovely! A+ from this gal! Thanks UG Crew!

“Green Tree Python”

July 25th, 2020

I ordered a yearling Biak GTP late afternoon Friday and received it right away Saturday morning. Upon opening the box the little guy was very alert and ready to move! Overall looks to be pretty healthy, little bit of stuck shed a quick soak should take care of that. Customer service followed up about 20 minutes after the delivery to check if everything turned out okay. I will be ordering my next snake from these guys because of it.

This is my first time ordering reptiles online and this was a really amazing experience! They did great with shopping and they called automatically to make sure my order was getting to the right place and all 3 of my baby turtles came very healthy and very well packaged!! And overnight shipping just like it said! Even the UPS man waited so my turtles wouldn't get eaten by ants or anything I totally recommend this website for any animal!!

“Very good looking iguanas”

May 24th, 2020

Very healthy and well cared for iguanas, that come in beautiful. If your buying one of the wild caught green iguanas just know it is going to be very difficult to tame them down because the wild is all they know, and you might stress them out a ton messing with them to much. But other than that my baby axenthic iguana cam in looking great and I ordered a red iguana as well some time back that has been doing soo good and just eats like a pig.
