Welcome to Heart of England Butterflies

Heart of England Butterflies is a Central England based moth and butterfly supplier serving hobbyists, schools, universities, zoos and related establishments. Livestock is sent throughout the European Union, and set or framed specimens are shipped worldwide. We are proud to be part of a long tradition of lepidoptera breeders and livestock suppliers in the UK. Visitors to the website are free to use any life-cycle photographs for non commercial or educational purposes only.

 

The primary aims of this website are to promote and encourage captive breeding of moths and butterflies and to document our own rearing through the mediums of photography and videography. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see image links of some of the species currently in stock. 

 

  Mainland UK Delivery just £3.50 per order.
Ethical Trading Policy

British and continental moths and butterflies currently offered come from our own self-sustaining colonies, or from independent enthusiasts. Any set specimens offered are from captive breeding programmes or licensed breeding farms in overseas countries that help to safeguard areas rich in eco-diversity.

 

HEB strongly encourages the exchange of captive bred livestock materiaI for genetic and conservation reasons. If you have excess livestock, or livestock you think we would be interested in, please contact us.
