About Us.

When Sam MacLean was a little boy he received a veiled chameleon as a gift from his father. It became his favourite pet and today, as owner of the shop Squamata (scaled reptiles) he delights in watching the faces of young children as they choose their reptile pets.

“I soon owned six chameleons, five snakes and a slew of geckos”, he admits. “That’s when I got the itch to open my own reptile store as there weren’t any stores in the Streetsville area that carried feeders or accessories for reptiles.”

It’s been two years since Sam opened Squamata Reptiles, which carries popular pets such as bearded dragons, geckos, lizards, snakes and turtles. “We also carry feeders and top of the line reptile accessories”, he says.
