This hatchling reticulated python
is stretching its jaws after finishing a meal. This is just
one of the species you can observe during feeding times at the zoo.
All snakes are fed frozen thawed rodents rather than live prey to
eliminate any risk of injury to our reptiles. Reptilia keepers are on hand
during each feeding to
explain the unique aspects of each reptile's feeding behaviour and
answer your questions during feeding time.
We
are often asked if these events are suitable for children.
The answer is yes, provided that their parents have the right approach.
These feedings are an opportunity to view nature in action and should be
seen as a learning experience. As stated above, our keepers are
always on hand to explain everything to our visitors and ensure that
everyone young, old, and in between comes away with a new perspective on
the interaction between predator and prey.

schedule below to find out who will be fed during your visit!
