Please do not go there
Okay so firstly they have kittens in this glass boxes, but okay, these boxes I'd say these boxes are 1.5 long, and 1 foot wide, and in each box they have about 4 kittens, but these things, like you're standing behind it and you want to remove your clothes because it's that hot, so how they're coping inside it!?! I don't want to tell you this next bit but every single reptile, the birds, everything, are caked in mites, absolutely CAKED in mites, they never seem to have water or food, the conditions themselves are horrible, but augh, I'm sorry about this bit, i was looking at the leopard geckos one day, and there was this leopard gecko laying there, dead from neglect i guess, and it had a cricket eating out it's eye, while two other live geckos were also in that same enclosure This is not so bad depending on your opinion, but another time i was in there, some guy came in saying his friend went on holiday and had been left with taking care of his tortoise, and no idea why the friend had not left instructions, but he was asking what to feed it, a person working at the store, specifically in the reptile section, taking care of reptiles, turned around and i kid you not said "Oh a read mixed bag of greens from Tesco is fine", aka, probably the worst thing to feed them, and just, yeah, we used to go there because it was local, cheap, and was the only place we could get things, now i straight up refuse my family or any friends to go there so they stop earning money and close down

Bad attitude of staff
I have stopped buying seed from them as the till staff are surley and you leave feeling down. Also need to check your change carefully if paying with a large note!

I would not recommend this shop to anyone. The reptiles are kept in poor conditions as are many others. and it would appear that not one single person whom works here knows what they're talking about. We went to Wiltons and left very depressed indeed, there are many GOOD exotic pet shops in and around Essex which I would recommend but Wiltons is not one of them. Wiltons have had many complaints to various agencies regarding the conditions of many of there animals and seriously hope that one day they're closed down as they give wrong advice and need to research into what they're selling !
