Hey everyone! Sorry it's been so quiet over here, the geckos keep me busy!
I just wanted to announce that I am now teaching online reptile classes for children! If you have a child who is interested in leopard geckos, feel free to take a look at the classes I offer. I'm excited to be able to educate kids on proper reptile care, and show off some of my beautiful rescues at the same time. 🙂

In this one time class, students will learn all about keeping leopard geckos as pets and get to meet real leopard geckos!

I've totally been slacking at posting!! Here's a little update on the geckos that have joined our family since I Iast posted! In order we have Kiko, Fern, Enzo, Blair, Otto & our newest little baby who I haven't picked a name for yet. Plus a bonus photo of Otto's giant, gorgeous regrown tail. 🥰

Finn! She was my first ever rescue. She came to me severely malnourished, with metabolic bone disease and several layers of stuck shed. Today, she is healthy and happy. She is a sweet girl who loves to be held. I'm so thankful I was able to save her. 🥰

Next up, Nova!
She was my third leopard gecko, and was purchased from a reptile expo. She is a blazing blizzard, and absolutely beautiful. I had always wanted a blazing blizzard, and fell in love the minute I saw her. She is sassy and fiesty, and would probably be happiest if I never touched her again. 😂🥰

For the next month or so, I'll be posting pictures of our whole family along with descriptions of each! 😊
First up, Tiny! She was my second leopard gecko, and was purchased from a pet store 6 years ago. She was only the length of my finger when I got her! She is the sweetest gecko ever, and loves people. She's always out and about, exploring her tank. She's the first to run up to the glass when I walk into the room, and she's always ready to eat! 🥰

So sorry this page has been so quiet!! I've been crazy busy taking in lots of new reptiles and amphibians! I promise I'll get back into posting more regularly soon! 😊

Daria and Jane are almost 2 months old! I can't believe how different they're turning out to look! Some of you may remember how they were nearly identical when they hatched. They're both eating like champs, and growing like weeds. 🥰

Due to circumstances beyond my control, the latest gecko eggs didn't make it. I'm heartbroken, but life goes on. 😭 If people are interested, I can share pics of my tiny, perfect little gecko fetuses.

And then there's gorgeous little Hazel. She has minor enigma syndrome, but is otherwise a healthy and friendly girl. 🥰

05/31/2020

Say hello to miss Rogue!! Again, perfectly healthy just has never been handled. 🥰

05/31/2020

Meet little miss Quinn. Perfectly healthy, just needs to get used to being handled. 💕

05/30/2020

Just picked up these 3 beautiful girls. Excited to get them home and settled. 🥰

05/23/2020

And last but certainly not least, we have Kearney, Jimbo and Dolph the guyana blue anoles. These beautiful boys are QUICK!

05/23/2020

Next up we have little miss Gizmo! Her owners were moving and couldn't keep her. They paid my gas to pick her up all the way from Barrie!

05/23/2020

Sorry for the lack of posts, it's been a busy week here!! We've taken in 4 new reptile friends, and 1 new amphibian friend!! Get ready for spam!
First up we have the absolutely gorgeous Miss Vanjie. She is an Amazon milk frog. She came to be because she's been on a hunger strike for the last little while.

Daria and Jane are growing up so quickly! 😭 I can't believe how different they look now, they were practically identical when they hatched! Daria(left) is larger and much lighter in colour. Jane (right) is smaller, darker and has more spots. 🥰

05/17/2020

My little Mama Ruby laid two big, healthy eggs today!! In a couple short months we should have two new babies! 🥰
Notice the little pink vien in the back egg? That's how I know its a healthy, fertilized egg. 😊

Handsome little Ernie. He is by far my best and most enthusiastic eater! 🥰

05/15/2020

Meet the newest member of the family! This is Uri. 🥰
He is sweet, but cautious. We love him so much already!

05/14/2020

Professor X is so handsome 🥰 He's a tokay gecko. They are known for being fiesty and mean, but he's actually a pretty sweet guy!
