About
Hi!
A bit about me, I was a biology major that discovered my passion in hands on work with reptiles and took it full time in 2020. I run a small reptile shop where I have a health and quality based approach to the care, breeding, and sale of my animals. I have spent the last five years working on improving care, education, and introducing people to many species of reptiles.
I currently have a focus in ball pythons as I simply love everything about the species. I have a primary focus in the artistic nature of breeding, not just throwing any two animals together, but trying to fine tune combinations, with the help of some luck of the odds, to achieve very specific results based on what I've imagined in my head.
I have been developing a theory on "granite" type genes and their impact on overall attributes most of us normally ascribe to polymorphism, developing ways to identify the characteristics of this group of genes alone or in combinations. There are at least 16 named granite type genes on morphmarket, not including the unnamed genes I've been studying, from more subtle examples like marvel all the way to kosmos and likely monsoon as well. They aren't related necessarily, but almost all share the same markers for identification.
I work with dozens of other animal species from rodents to snakes to monitor lizards. My current breeding projects include ball pythons, house snakes, rat snakes, Kenyan Sand boas, Kenyan Zebra Skinks, 3 species of mourning geckos, gargoyle geckos, crested geckos, m. Balfouri tarantulas, curly hair tarantulas, orange baboon tarantulas, and probably a few I'm forgetting.
Check out my Instagram where I post projects and things I am working on!

Store Policy
-Terms and conditions-
Sex, 100% het (heterozygous, not visually exposed) recessive genes, and health at arrival are guaranteed. That said, I am human, and sex needs to be verified within 1 week of delivery. Any discrepancy needs to be on video to ascertain the animal has or hasn't been mis-sexed. In the event of a confirmed mis-sexed animal, I will accept a return, with the return shipping label provided by me, or find an agreement that reasonably fixes the mistake to the best of my ability.
Visually expressed genes are identified to the best of my ability, but visual identification can be complex and as such, no guarantee is implied, but on any animal I personally produce, I will provide the pairing that produced it and typically maintain photos of the parents and siblings.
A legal aged adult must be available to take delivery of the animal at the first delivery attempt. DOA claims must be made with video(preferred) or pictures of the animal within 1 hour of the FedEx timestamp noting delivery of the package for home delivery or within 2 hours of the Fed Ex timestamp noting pickup for Hub deliveries. Carrier delays of more than 4 hours void live arrival guarantees. DOA's are extremely uncommon and I take every available precaution to deliver you a healthy, well packaged animal.
If you would like a current weight just let me know! I do not do maintenance feeding, every animal is fed appropriately sized prey weekly until it is sold.
We do not accept returns outside the listed guarantees in our store terms.
Shipping and shipping quotes are through Reptiles2You.
Local pickup available at my shop in La Crosse, Wisconsin during normal operating hours or by appointment.
Shipping is weather dependent and may vary on holidays and other special circumstances. We only ship for home delivery when temps are no higher than 90 and no lower than 40 degrees from my location, at the connecting hub, and the destination hub. There is more temperature flexibility with hub pickups.
By making payment you accept these terms and conditions. All sales are final.
