SPECIFIC  ANIMALS  CAN  BE  REQUESTED

All of our animals are housed individually in large enclosures. They enjoy naturalistic environments and are handled regularly. Each one comes with their own personality and temperament. They all have teeth and can *bite.

  • Angel is a small but mighty snake. She will hiss loudly and bluff strike at things that come into her home, until she realizes that it’s food! Angel has yet to “play dead” as a defense mechanism.

In Memoriam

  • Princess was the girl that started it all. She was with us for 5 years and she taught us a lot. Her personality was fantastic and we miss her dearly. She spoiled us with her calm and friendly demeaner and she’s the reason we often recommend a Cornsnake for new reptile enthusiasts. Princess was a Gray Cornsnake born in August of 2016. We got her on November 16th 2016.
