I will continue regardless with what I do but I will be making a new page to start stronger than ever. Thank you all for the support and kindness until now. And I apologize for not being as active as I should've been, too many things happened that were personal and I no longer have to will to keep this page up. Thank you again and reptile on

Is anyone else looking forward to Thanksgiving and stuffing their face like Grizz?

Fun Fact- Some bearded dragons go into a state called brumation, which can be likened to what most people know as hibernation in bears.

Brumation is an interesting thing, and it can make beardies quite angry. I mean, when you're really sleepy and want to nap but someone wakes you up to feed you or clean your cage, you might get mad too.

Just a reminder to never use glue traps.
And if you do find an animal stuck in a glue trap, vegetable oil or olive oil works wonders.

The weather is hot, but that doesn't stop our eight legged friends.
Do you know what species is pictured here?

You never know what you'll find on the highway.

We placed him somewhere much safer.

Warm days have us coming out of hiding like our friend Sunny here.

It's been warm enough that you might see some scaley friends, and a lot of six legged ones out and about.

If any of those friends are venomous, give us a call!

Relocation of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates contact me here anytime!

A few weeks back we had our first successful catch and release as Curly Man Exotics.

This little guy found himself trapped in a garage. He spent some time in observation to make sure he was ready for release.

As you can see he was very excited to be back in the wild.

This is our purpose, to save those that need it and allow them a better chance.

Don't forget to eat!
Sunday is feeding day for all our wee and not so wee friends.

Our smallest friend is Dionysus. He is a Curly Hair or Tliltocatl albopilosus sling. This is an older picture of him eating dinner as he currently is in molt.

Molt is not fun, just like snake sheds. Though Tarantula molting can take much longer than a snake shedding its skin. Both require the animal to have a lot of water.

Tarantulas also tend to be in some very goofy positions after molting because their new legs need some good stretches! We look forward to Dio's molt and cant wait to see his adorable self grow.
