Uncle Milton Giant Ant Farm


Collect from a local DPD Parcelshop— FREE when you spend £30+

We’re a small, family-run business — just me (Callum) and my sister, carefully packing every order by hand.

With a toddler keeping us on our toes and baby Theodore arriving on 14th July, life is a little hectic — but we’re truly grateful for your support.

Why buy from Lennie’s if dispatch takes 2–3 working days?

Because when you shop with us, you’re not just buying a toy — you’re supporting a UK family business that puts genuine care and love into every single parcel. 💛

When we ship, we use a Next Day service (1–2 working days), so most orders arrive within 3–5 working days from the time you place your order.

If everything in your basket has our SpeedyLlama badge, we’ll do our best to dispatch the same day — though we can’t guarantee it every time.

We might not be the fastest, but we’re honest, reliable, and always here to help if anything goes wrong — with free, no-fuss returns too.

Thanks for choosing heart over haste. 🧸✨
