CTX Savage Pet Supply in Killeen, Texas is a veteran-run pet store that has carved out a reputation as the go-to destination for reptile enthusiasts in the Central Texas area. While the store carries premium dog and cat foods — including brands like First Mate that aren't commonly found at chain retailers — it's the reptile side of the business that truly sets this shop apart. The store maintains an impressive collection of ball pythons, bearded dragons, boas, and other reptiles, many with names that regulars know well.
Waffles the bearded dragon and Tutie Fruity are fan favorites, and the staff readily invites visitors to handle the animals, turning a shopping trip into an interactive experience. Each animal is housed in proper setups, and reviewers consistently note the excellent health and temperament of the reptiles they've purchased here. Feeders are a major draw.
CTX Savage stocks live feeder rats and mice in various sizes, along with Dubia roaches and superworms, at prices that undercut the big chain stores. Longtime customers report never encountering mite issues or quality problems with their feeders — a detail that matters enormously in reptile care. The store also carries supplies for bearded dragons, tegus, and other exotic pets.
The staff's knowledge runs deep. They'll walk first-time snake owners through husbandry basics, help experienced keepers track down specific morphs, and offer genuine care advice rather than a sales pitch. One Christmas Eve, the owner personally delivered Dubia roaches to a family in Belton after they called minutes before closing — the kind of above-and-beyond gesture that turns first-time callers into lifelong customers.
Beyond reptiles, CTX Savage offers reproductive services for dogs, prenatal vitamins, raw and kibble food options, and general pet supplies. The store is clean, well-organized, and radiates the kind of passion that only comes from owners who genuinely love animals. For anyone in the Killeen-Belton corridor keeping reptiles, this shop is well worth the drive.

Explored the nearby stores and came across this magnificent store. I’m a dedicated pet parent and I do not know how this store wasn’t in my radar in the years I’ve been here. HIGHLY recommend, the owner is so knowledgeable and you can tell they love what they do. My pup sure loved the treats!

I got our ball python from here in December, and she is an amazing snake with a great temperament and excellent health. You can really tell that they genuinely care about the animals they sell. One thing I love is that they also provide feeder rats, so I can easily pick up fresh ones for every feeding. Anytime I’ve had questions or concerns, they’re always available and incredibly knowledgeable, offering helpful advice and tips. I highly recommend this store to anyone interested in exotic pets.

Literally the BEST experience I've had! Everyone was not only SUPER welcoming and kind but SUPER knowledgeable! I got 3 repro services here and they went above and beyond to ensure my female American bully was prepped, comfortable, and ready. ALL of my dogs in my program will be coming here for ALL of their repro services! They also have TOP NOTCH kibble that isn't in other stores as well! Thank you again CTX Savage pet supply! We'll see y'all again soon! 🫡
