 November Special
- Buy two, get one free Leopard Gecko sale!
First, I've got to point out that I'm busily cranking out CSS and XHTML
code for a complete re-work of this site. During the interim prior to
launching the new version, please point out any inoperable items on this
site you might run across - I tend to bust a lot stuff as I go along in
life, just ask my wife. This is also a good time to make suggestions for
changes or additions you'd like to see...
With that launch, we'll be making our
'free shipping on all orders over $250' permanent. For now, we've
extended it yet again as part of our monthly special.
So here's how that works: Using our simple shopping cart system, just place an
order for $250.00 or more of our reptiles and the shipping will be
free! The shopping cart will even calculate the correct total for you. The
only details:
- To qualify for the special, you MUST use the shopping cart system and pay
via debit/credit card or PayPal account. No exceptions.
- Offer applies only to shipments within the continental US. Shipments to
Alaska or foreign destinations are not eligible.
- Before somebody asks: Types can be mixed to achieve the $250.00 total in
any way you desire, choose from geckos, snakes, any colors, any sexes. It's
up to YOU!
OK, now for the real monthly special...
We've decided to bring back our most popular special of all time, our 'buy two, get one free Leopard Gecko
sale'. So here's how it works: Using our simple shopping cart system,
just order any two (or four or six and so on) Leopard Geckos. The cart
is not smart enough to know which one should be free, so placing it in
your cart will get you charged for it. For every
two ordered, simply list another in the 'notes' field during PayPal
checkout (or send to us in a separate email) as your free one.
- To qualify for the special, you
MUST use the shopping cart system and pay via credit or debit card. No
exceptions.
- The free ones need to be equal or
lower in price than the ones in each pair, you're not going to get a
$500 specimen for free after buying two $25 specimens. I know some
genius out there will try it, it won't work.
- Offer applies
only to new orders placed on or after 11/1/09. This offer may be
cancelled at any time, without notice.
- Be prepared for some substitutions to be requested. Each time we run
this sale, geckos move out fast and getting duplicate orders for the
same specimens is common. Needless to say, it's first-come-first-served,
and we'll work to get you the assortment you want.

Vera Cruz Milksnake (Lampropeltis t.
polyzona)
A rather rare large Central American Milksnake, also known as the Atlantic
Central American Milksnake. Often the white bands are completely obscured
with black, giving the appearance of a red and black banded snake!
Typically, the red coloration takes on a more orange tone as they age. Our
stocks descend from a group of four wild-caught snakes imported directly to
us in the early nineties and are unrelated to other US lineages. Click

Snow Honduran Milksnake
(Lampropeltis
t. hondurensis)
Anerythristic and Albino.
When combined, the results are Snow Hondurans - an astounding snake clad in
bands of pinks, whites, and pale lemon yellows, often with subtle undertones of
oranges. Utterly beautiful and a must have for Milksnake aficionados!

Tangerine
Albino Honduran Milksnake
(Lampropeltis

We
paid little attention to the Albino Honduran Milksnakes, until somebody
put one of these in my hands! Absolutely blinding colors of scarlet,
fluorescent orange and pinkish-white combined in a six foot snake with a
great disposition. We've been selecting for high band count specimens
as we find these more attractive than the wider bands. Click

Hypo Honduran Milksnake
(Lampropeltis
t. hondurensis)
Hypo Hondurans are simply unbelievable! We think these are prettier than the albinos. Totally lacking
black tipping and with very thin clean bands, all of the colors are accentuated
into very clean and pure colors. Almost look pastel, or maybe plastic…
A key genetic trait that should be in all collections of Honduran
Milksnakes! Click here to learn more/see adults.

Tangerine Honduran Milksnake
(Lampropeltis
t. hondurensis)
These get huge and always feed readily. Wide black and red-orange rings on red.
We have out-crossed the Tangerine phase to Red phase animals to
intensify coloration. Our adults are nearly six feet long! Most of ours will be
heterozygous for other traits and will be priced accordingly. Click

Aberrant Sinaloan Milksnake (Lampropeltis triangulum sinaloae)
An interesting genetic
mutation creating unusual aberrant Sinaloan
Milksnakes! All have unusual calico patterned heads, and solid white-tails,
although the amount of that varies a bit. Between those two points, anything
can happen to the pattern. Every specimen is truly unique, no two are alike. Pricing will
be based on quality of appearance. Click

Nelsons’ Milksnakes (Lampropeltis t. nelsoni)
The Nelsons' Milksnake is very close to the more common Sinaloan Milksnake in
appearance, size and temperament. The primary diagnostic feature is that
the black rings are 2-3 times the width of the white rings. Click

Surplus Adult/Subadult Milksnakes |
|
|
|
From time to time, we have various adults and subadults available. Most
adults are proven
breeders from our colonies. Most subadults are specimens we grew up to
evaluate for use as potential breeders.

Proven Breeder Male Anerythristic Honduran Milksnake
(Lampropeltis t. hondurensis)
Another
incredible looking mutation in this very popular snake. Totally lacking
red pigments, these are clad in bands of pink, white and black.
We'll produce heterozygous specimens as well. Combine this with
hypomelanism to produce 'Ghost' Hondurans, or with albinism to create
'Snow' Hondurans. A key genetic trait that should be in all collections of
Honduran Milksnakes! Click

Adult Female Honduran Milksnake
(Lampropeltis t. hondurensis)
These get huge and always feed readily.
We produce a few each year, mixed in with the Tangerines. Many grow
up to be a beautiful pale orange and red-banded snake (Apricot Phase) while
others may look more like the specimen illustrated here. Most of ours will
be heterozygous for other traits and will be priced accordingly. Click

Note from the breeder: We
grew this gal up as backup in case two females possible double-het failed to
prove out. Well, we beat the odds and proved BOTH of them, so we don't need
this large virgin female. |

|
|
What do all these numbers and stuff mean? |
|
|
|
The description of each specimen is followed by the sex
of the specimen, it's date of birth, a stock number identifying the specimen,
and the selling price. Photos are of the exact specimen listed, are taken inside
a standard 16oz deli cup for size comparison, and are updated
monthly on average.
Understanding our stock numbers may prove helpful in identifying unrelated
specimens:
F021-01M
indicates a 2006 hatching (we started this code in 2001 with 'A',
2002 is 'B' and so on).
F021-01M
indicates the clutch number for that year, and thus all specimens listed
as F021- are from the same clutch.
F021-01M
indicates this is the first male from that clutch. F021-03F
would the third female from that clutch.
CB - Captive Bred, usually followed by year of
birth. Hatched or born from parents kept in captivity.
CH - Captive Hatched, usually followed by year of
birth. Hatched or born from a gravid wild-caught female.
WC - Wild-Caught. While all of our stock is produced
here, some of it is produced from wild-caught adults that we maintain. We will occasionally
sell some of the breeder animals as surplus.
LTC - Long Term Captive, usually followed by year of
capture. Applies only to WC animals,
indicates they have been maintained for a long period in captivity and are very
well established.
50%, 66%, 100% - Percentage of likelihood the specimen is heterozygous
for the listed trait. |
