I’m sorry but we are done taking in any more reptiles until further notice. We also don’t have any reptiles up for adoption. Thanks for everything y’all have done for us and we hope y’all understand. 🐍🦎💚

Someone found this crested gecko last week on their porch when it was cold. They brought it in and surrendered it to us a couple days later. It just went to its foster home today. 💚🦎

We are still going to help out when we can. Yesterday we got a young Kingsnake and a ball python. They will be up for adoption after their quarantine.💚🐍🐍

Ghost Update:
Sorry guys for keeping y’all in suspense about Ghost, we will do weekly updates from now on. He’s doing great! He’s been eating insects instead of me syringe feeding him for awhile. He has trouble “finding” the food so I have to try and find his mouth to help. He’s gained weight and gets around great in his tank. Here’s a video of one of our feeding times. We have gotten it down pretty well with some misses every now and then. 💚🦎

Finished Oreo’s new enclosure. I made a false bottom as a background, using bark, sticks, fake plants, real moss, and spray foam. Once that’s all on the background and where you want it, I throw dirt and moss on the foam when it’s still wet so it sticks. After about an hour I flip it over and take a paintbrush and paint black and brown spots where white is showing. Then I added substrate (dirt, sand, and mainly Rept Bark) and the live moss and Oreo. I have some real Pothos and fake plants. Tegus are diggers so having real plants is tough. She seems to enjoy it a lot (however she will need a bigger setup in a year or so).
