I founded Prismatic Reptiles in 2013, and I breed and sell our favorite reptile species including Mexicana and Montane kingsnakes, corn snakes, rat snakes, and ball pythons. My full-blown obsession has taken me to the point that I have one of the largest colubrid collections in the country. I only work with animals that interest me and make me say, "I couldn't live without that!". I have been fasc
inated with reptiles since I was a kid and I fearlessly caught reptiles throughout my childhood. When I got a little older I lost sight of that interest for a while, but in 2012 I took a trip to Las Vegas and did some h**ping on the way there. I spent two hours chasing a leopard lizard that I never ended up catching and I was hooked from there. As soon as I got home I looked on kingsnake.com classifieds and bought my first pair of collared lizards. At my first reptile show in early 2013 I bought some poison dart frogs and the "one snake I would ever own", which was an apricot pueblan milk snake. By the end of the year I was keeping corn snakes, cal kings, carpet pythons, ball pythons, gray banded kingsnakes, Arizona mountain kingsnakes, Nuevo Leon kingsnakes, Mex Mex kingsnakes, Durango mountain kingsnakes, hognose snakes, collared lizards, desert horned lizards, Mexican giant horned lizards, panther chameleons and I was breeding my own rodents and insects in preparation for my first breeding season in the spring of 2014. I produced a handful of desert horned lizards, collared lizards, cal kings, corn snakes and a lone Arizona mountain kingsnake. From that first reptile I ever bred and successfully hatched, I was all in. Fast forward to today, and now breeding reptiles is my full-time job! I'm always working on acquiring everything I've dreamed of working with, and I'm absolutely in love with reptiles more than ever. From learning about natural history, husbandry techniques, and trying to do things that no one else has done, becoming a bona fide h**per has been one of the best things to ever happen to me. I have been doing educational shows at schools since the beginning, and I absolutely love field h**ping for all reptiles, from the most common, to the incredibly rare. I specialize in Mexicana and montane kingsnakes, old world ratsnakes, corn snakes, tricolor and Western hognose snakes, collared lizards, horned lizards, and ball pythons. I enjoy keeping, breeding, observing and interacting with reptiles and amphibians so much that I have decided to produce and provide animals for the enjoyment of others. I focus on the rarer and more aesthetically beautiful animals giving us the motto of "colorful captive-bred creations". My hope is that animals from out breeding stock can be used in personal collections, schools, and zoos for education and good, old-fashioned viewing pleasure. Rarely do people from Southeastern Idaho get access to such unique and high quality animals. I also strive to provide the absolute lowest local prices for feeder rodents. A primary mission beyond selling reptiles and providing expert advice and education pertaining to their care, is to offer local customers with feeders for their animals. I provide mice and rats of all sizes. If I have limited quantities on a particular item, I am happy to work with you and satisfy your needs. I prefer to provide rodents in only $25 minimum orders.
