This gorgeous girl is ready for a new 🏠 soon! Please inquire to us directly if you’re interested and we will see if you’re a good fit! She was recently vet checked with a clean bill of health and no parasites! 💕

On a brighter note, we took Ira for a vet check today and she looks great! Gained 21g and is finally in fantastic shape! Waiting on f***l test results to make sure we’re in tip top shape on the inside as well. She is the sweetest and didn’t even bite the vet while poking at her! 💕

With a heavy heart do I come here to announce that Stitch went to gecko heaven last night. The force feeding really stressed him out and he didn’t have the energy to fight anymore. Your suffering is over little buddy we tried so hard to make you better 😔💔

Update on Stitch! It’s been a rough road for the little one thus far. He spent 4 days at the vet for force feeding, soaks and f***l tests to rule out parasites.
Good news! Stitch has tested NEGATIVE for all parasites!!
However, he still won’t eat! He’s growing tired of being force fed but honestly I would be, too.
Yesterday I offered a fancy buffet o’bugs. However, he wasn’t feeling any of it.
We are not done fighting!
We will keep trying.
Fingers crossed 🤞 maybe whisper a little prayer for us 🙏

This little one has still not been eating! Started force feeding repta boost today and Stitch was NOT a fan, poor thing 😞 vet visit soon. At least Stitch is cute!!

Got this cute little baby last weekend. Very scared and doesn’t want to eat. Probably only 3-5 months old. Previous owner said she had trouble getting him/her to eat and it lost some weight already. Will keep you posted!

Ira has been growing like a w**d! No wonder with that appetite. She will eat and eat and eat unless I cut her off 😂 She has a vet appointment in the beginning of June (maybe sooner if they have cancellations) to make sure she doesn’t have any parasites and if she gets a clean bill of health she is ready to move on! 🏠

Ira when we first got her on the top row and bottom pictures are now. Looks like a different gecko!! 😍 she’s doing great and has the appetite of a monster 😂 but the temperament of an angel 😇

Look at that cute smile! Ira is as sweet as she looks 💕

Mr. Bean! About 3 year old male crested gecko. Beautiful when fired up (and down of course). A firecracker personality! 🧨

02/17/2021

This beautiful girl (turns out he is actually a she!) is ready for adoption soon!!! She is absolutely wonderful, great demeanor and does well with handling. She is eating like a champ now! I absolutely love her ♥️

02/11/2021

Mr. Bean has settled in, started eating regularly and calmed down finally! He’s ready for adoption. I rescued him from a home where the cats got to him, hence the tail loss. So he’s gonna have to go to a loving home without cats!! Please contact me if you’re interested in adopting this handsome fella 💕 🦎

01/28/2021

New rescue from today. Got him from a home where the cat got to him (hence, the tail loss 😔). You’re safe now buddy 💕😍

01/27/2021

My adorable rescue finally ate his first bug ever (after a 17day hunger strike!) I’m beyond stoked 🤩🤩

01/23/2021

Good news! We saved the remaining toes that had shed on it!! There is one toe that has lost circulation for a bit so I’m hoping it will heal and not turn black since we got the shed off yesterday after many many tries!! The toe that already fell off is healing well, no infections! This gecko is a trooper!! Such a good temperament 💕

01/14/2021

Sand gecko tail wiggle! Love when I catch them do it 💕

01/12/2021

My latest rescue! Poor thing is losing a toe already but I’m trying to save the others! He’s also unsure of live bugs since he’s only had freeze dried ones 🤔 haven’t confirmed gender yet but one thing at a time 💕 he’s so cute and a wonderful personality already.

01/03/2021

The reptile rescue wall is coming together. Not complete yet but we’re getting there! I will eventually have live streaming of all of my rescues on my website! Really stoked on what’s yet to come.
