“Great place to do business with”

Hazel H.
6/6/20

We had awesome customer service and no issues whatsoever, unlike previous place. My son received his crabs within 18 hours of ordering them, they are alive and healthy and he is so happy, will only use them from now on.

“Tokay not okay”

James A.
7/13/24

If feel dumb and deceived for trusting this website and shame on me for not looking at reviews before I ordered. I surprised my wife with a Tokay Gecko, was so excited and relieved him with in 24 hrs of ordering. Upon arrival he was extremely skinny and very underweight. Being reptile owners we were upset but sprung into action and did everything possible to bring him back. He was 12 inches and only weighed 68gr. Being that long and age he should have been close to 120g at least. Not knowing anything about his living conditions prior we just figured of course they didn't feed them well. We got him in his enclosure and gave him about 4-5 days to acclimate to his home. During the time we gave him crickets, supermorms and roaches. He would strike but not eat or put it in his mouth shake and spit them out. After day 5 we decided to take the chance and get him out. We'd get him to open his mouth and toss in a worm here and there. We thought it was a win because he ate them. The problem after handling him he was so weak so we'd put him back and give him a couple days. This went on for a day short of a month when he passed away while trying to feed him. My heart breaks because we pour 1000% into our babies and we could not save him. We thought he was getting better and moving more but in the end we believe he was just hanging onto a string. I feel so sad, mad and down right heart broken about losing Arceus. He will forever be a God to us but we will never tell anyone to buy from Underground reptiles and will be deleting anything to do with them. NEVER BUY FROM THEM EVER!

He wouldn't eat from the start i chalked it up to the move. His appetite never got better. I woke up to a dead iguana

Hi Linda, we are very sorry to hear your iguana passed away. We see you received your iguana on 6/3/20. We did receive the email you sent to us on 7/2/30 claiming the iguana had passed away 3 days prior to contacting us. That is the only correspondence we ever received from you after the animal had been delivered. You never contacted us to let us know there was an issue with the animal so we could assist you. Upon looking at the photos you posted with this review we can tell the iguana was not living in the correct environment. Iguanas are tropical animals and should have a large water bowl in there enclosure, not a tiny deli cup lid. They also should not be kept on sand, but instead some kind bark or mulch that will retain humidity. Also, iguanas should be offered a mixture of green leaf vegetables, shredded carrots, zucchini, squash, and other similar vegetables to eat. You also have what looks to be branches made out of duct tape which is very unsafe for the animal. If you would like a full care sheet for one then please contact us at info@undergroundreptiles.com. We look forward to helping you improve your iguana enclosure and serving you more in the future.

Disgusting service. Sending large reptiles in too small boxes and claiming they're sending babies. Horrible and inhumane.
