Eighth Element

🟢 WE ARE OPEN!
Our entrance has officially moved — you’ll now find us off Edgewood Drive behind the building.

The old Highway 24 entrance is permanently closed, but the shop is buzzing, the critters are thriving, and we’re here all day every day doing what we do best.

Addie and Wylder are cleaning enclosures before naptime… and Cassie would like to file a formal complaint.
The shop vac turns on and our macaw instantly becomes a feathered drama queen in the background.
Grandkids working hard, Cassie protesting loudly, critters getting fresh setups — just another day at Eighth Element Exotics.

What does YOUR pet absolutely lose their mind over?

Addie and Wylder are clocked in and cleaning before naptime — because the next generation of herpers starts early around here.
They’ve got tiny hands, big determination, and absolutely zero fear of a shop vac.
Enclosures? Fresh. Critters? Happy.
Grandkids? Running the place like they own it.

Two handsome gentlemen are on the lookout for their forever homes!

💙 Our Mini Rex male, 6 months old, is as soft as velvet and twice as sweet.
🤍 And our male Chinchilla is ready to charm someone with those big ears and even bigger personality.

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect fluffy companion… this might be your sign. Come meet them and fall in love!

Power’s on here, and our doors are open!
Whether you need feeders, want to browse for a new companion, or just need a cool place to relax while the power’s out—come on in. We’re here for you and the critters.

Nothing like rolling into work on two (or three) wheels and starting the day with a grin. I finally rode my bike in this morning and it absolutely set the tone. How did everyone get to work today — car, truck, bus, bike, or something a little more fun?

🟢 OPEN and fully recharged!

We had an incredible time at the All American Reptile & Plant Expo this weekend—thank you to everyone who stopped by!

Got a new scaly, slimy, or leafy friend from the expo? Swing in for upgrades, enclosures, lighting, décor, and all the goodies to get them settled. And yes… feeders are stocked.

Let’s keep the reptile energy rolling.

🟢 We’re set up TODAY in Overland Park for the All‑American Plant & Reptile Expo!
Come hang out with us, explore amazing animals, check out the plant vendors, and don’t forget — there’s a whole card collector side of the show too. Something for everyone, all under one roof.

Whether you’re hunting for your next scaly companion, grabbing feeders, picking up supplies, or browsing collectibles, swing by the Eighth Element Exotics booth and say hi. We love seeing our community out and about.

Let’s make it an awesome Sunday in Overland Park 🐍🌱✨
