My daughter wanted me to buy her a frog and Big Apple helped us find the best 'blue tree' frog. They were concerned about her arriving safely in the heat and helped us with the best day possible. Bubbles is very happy in her new home and my daughter is elated. Thank you so much!

Got a pied ball python today. Only has one white band close to tail. It's 95% color. Very disappointed. Won't be ordering from them again. The packaging of the snake was great. One thing they should do is let customers know what they've been feeding the animal. I thought it would have at least 2 bands. According to other pictures of people who ordered the same snake it had several bands on it.

I ordered a cb baby sulcata tortoise that arrived alive and alert. Super cute and healthy. Started letting us hand feed that night. We love it and would recommend/repurchase from here again. I also had questions about shipping that the staff answered quickly and were nice/knowledgeable.

I ordered a female Panther Chameleon and a female Tokay gecko and both arrived on time in great condition. They are both eating and doing great. The text responses were in a timely manner and answered all my questions to the best of their ability! I will definitely be ordering from the again!

Five stars isn't a high enough rating! Communication with questions were answered quickly, I was kept up to date on everything. My beautiful Sunbeam snake was well packaged for a safe trip! Prices were incredibly fair. I'm thrilled with my new baby, !Big Apple Pet Supply is the place to go for your reptile needs, they sell f/t feeders as well. Thank you again, I'll definitely be a returning customer!
