It's that time of year again, where people either give or receive exotic pets as a gift to passionate loved ones. Reptiles can make awesome pets, but they can also become big problems that not everyone is equipped to deal with.
First, a bit about myself. I remember my first boa constrictor given to me at the age of 13 and boy was it a shock learning to cope with the feeding, and care of her as well as getting over my first bite and continuing to handle her as if nothing had changed in our relationship. After 16 years of experience in owning reptiles ranging from ball pythons, to burmese pythons and even savannah monitors with a fair amount of success, I'd like to offer a responsible alternative to letting your scale baby stagnate in it's cage only handled or maintained when absolutely necessary as more of a chore than a pleasure.
I currently have room for 10-16 reptiles depending on the size and enclosure requirements including all of the necessary housing and temperature equipment. When I bring a new reptile into my home, it will either go into an exo-terra front opening terrarium, or have a custom wood and acrylic enclosure built to accommodate it with the notable exception of semi-aquatic reptiles, or chameleons which require glass or screened enclosures. If you or a loved one are in possession of a reptile that would benefit from a more experienced owner, need continued care advice from an experienced owner, or just feel like you're in over your head with feeding costs and upkeep, please reach out and I will assist you either in finding them a new home, or adopting them personally. I am not a broker, and I do not sell reptiles.
