Our final reptile adventure of 2024 took us to the Show Me Reptile Expo in Rhode Island—just to browse, of course. But as every herper knows, expo plans shed fast!

Meet Pumpkin, our surprise Blue-Tongue Skink who’s become the scaly puppy of the family! From setup to snuggles, this Halloween arrival kept us on our toes.

Join Dad and Kiley as they welcome Pancake’s new girlfriend with fun questions, big laughs, and a touch of reptile romance!

Our love for New Caledonian geckos grew beyond Potato and led us to the giant, Muppet-faced Leachianus gecko—straight out of a Jim Henson fantasy!

We’ve been eyeing the Zoo Med Skyscraper for a new kritter—Dad dreamed of dart frogs, but fruit flies were a deal breaker. So, who’s moving in next? A pair of Ogres?

Wanda the Ball Python has joined the family—completing our Fairly OddParents duo and fulfilling Kiley’s dream of having a snake of her own!

A reptile expo trip turned into an unforgettable Uromastyx adventure—complete with eggs, bioactive setups, and our beloved Pikachu and Eevee preparing for babies!

Join Dad and Kiley for a fun Q&A with Pancake the western hognose snake—quirky, dramatic, and totally lovable!

Our gecko adventure began with a fascination for quirky New Caledonian personalities—and quickly outgrew a terrarium our new guy wasn’t quite ready for!

Snakes weren’t exactly on Dad’s pet wish list—thanks to a traumatic boa incident in the 90s. But decades later, something unexpected happened… he caved.

It all started with Lizzie, a tiny leopard gecko with a royal attitude. But her arrival unleashed a chain reaction—soon, every room had a reptile… and Dad? He dreamed of fire breathing dragons.

A journey from shy to sassy. Meet Lizzie our first pet reptile. In this post we will give her backstory along with how we care for her along the way.
