It's easy to see how birds evolved from dinosaurs when you look at this chicken's foot. Rasputia - our Brahma x Australorp - was kind enough to let me pick her up and show off her dino feet.

This is usually how messages go in the hobby.
I make a post showing off what I work with, a smuggler messages me saying they have some exotics available, when I ask for paperwork they either go quiet, send me fake papers, or sometimes they get defensive and block me.
I have no problem doing international business, but it has to be LEGAL

It's brick outside - or very cold for those not from NYC - but it's a cozy 75°F in here. Perfect for a leisurely stroll after shooting goo on me and herself while I was removing old food.

Just in case you didn't know what we specialize in; here's a few species we work with 😉

This immature Archispirostreptus gigas got partially crushed (most likely from a larger gigas collapsing its burrow) during its last molt. With each new molt it'll eventually recover although not entirely. It's in premolt now so we'll see how it looks in a few months.

Id like to clarify a species ID that keeps getting spread around wrongfully. Centrobolus splendidus is the Splendid/Spotted Fire Millipede. Centrobolus sp. Mozambique is (obviously) the Mozambique Fire Millipede.
The 2 are easily distinguished with true Centrobolus sp. Mozambique having an all black face and black legs.
As far as I'm aware NOBODY in the US is currently working with Mozambique.
Picture of true Centrobolus sp Mozambique from Google for reference

Featuring Androctonus bicolor.
