Aldamir
Father
Aldamir is a 2020 tessera Okeetee corn snake. He is a small but robust boy at 3' long. There is never a dull moment around this little clown, with his insatiable appetite and over the top confident personality. He is a perfect snake in every way and provides so much entertainment with all his antics.
Anapel
Mother
Anapel is a beautiful 2015 Russian rat snake with a very sweet and outgoing personality. She is just over 5' long and has a heavily muscled body tone which she shows off with impressive acrobatic displays in her enclosure.
Argo
Father
Argo is a 2016 Miami axanthic bullsnake. He is a stunning boy with a lot of contrast and is just over 6.5' long. While his outgoing nature is endearing and fun to interact with, his insatiable appetite keeps us on our toes while we handle this big guy.
Beren
Father
Beren is a 2018 calico black rat snake. He has been a favorite of ours from the time we brought him home as a tiny, pink baby. At nearly 5.5' long, he is not done growing and is already an impressive snake. His personality is kind of like a giant, lazy, hungry dog. The only time he moves quickly is if he smells dinner.
Caspian
Father
Caspian is a 2017 white-sided black rat snake. He is a stunning and huge boy, measuring nearly 6' long. A bit more shy than our other white-sideds, he takes a little while to come around to new environments but has a very gentle nature.
Elathar
Father
Elathar is a 2016 hypo Baird's rat snake, about 4' long. He is one of our most laid back snakes and has an incredibly calm demeanor. So calm that I'm sometimes tempted to check if he's still alive... he always is, he just really loves to zone out and relax.
Fea
Mother
Fea is a 2015 Baird's rat snake, roughly 4.5' long. She's a gorgeous and sweet girl, often sitting out in her enclosure to watch whatever is happening in the room. Her bright orange/red/yellow coloration underneath the silver tipping on her scales is truly stunning and passes her beauty and personality on to all of her babies.
Jazz
Mother
Jazz is a 2019 female Kunashir Island Japanese rat snake. She has always been a very heavy bodied girl and is a stout 3.5' long with an insatiable appetite. She is confident, very curious and incredibly laid back.
Jinx
Father
Jinx is a 2018 male Kunashir Island Japanese rat snake. He holds a special place in our hearts and has grown into a stunning snake. At just over 4', he is an athletic boy who loves to climb all over his branches and shelves, perching high up in his enclosure to watch everything that goes on in his room.
Kementari
Mother
Kementari is a 2018 female Okeetee corn snake, approximately 4' long. She is a stunning girl with a curious and fairly quiet personality, usually found perched high on a shelf watching for her next meal.
Khovaki
Father
Khovaki is a 2020 Russian rat snake, about 4.5' long. He's always been an overachiever in size, colour and personality, making an impression on anyone who meets him. He is always perched out or has his face right at the front of his enclosure, forever curious about anything going on around him.
Kuril
Father
Kuril is a 2016 Russian rat snake, about 4' long. He is a confident and active boy, providing never ending entertainment with his antics. He has been a slow grower and is still on the small side of average for Russian rats, but is robust and has such a bright personality.
Luthien
Mother
Luthien is a 2018 calico black rat snake, about 5' long. She is one of the most entertaining snakes we keep, always casually cruising around her enclosure, finding new and sometimes hilarious places to perch.
Lyrica
Mother
Lyrica is a 2019 Neotropical bird eating snake. She strong both physically and in personality, reaching about 5' long already and being very confident from a young age. She will likely reach 6' as she finishes maturing. We feed her a diet of mostly chickens and quail, which she has thrived on.
Nuada
Mother

Nyx
Mother
Nyx is a 2015 black milksnake. She is a complete sweetheart and often comes out of her enclosure to sit on our laps or shoulders on her own. Always hungry but also always curious about the world, she approaches every situation with a calm confidence that is so fun to interact with. She is about 5.5' long.
Saffron
Mother
Saffron is a 2017 Gulf Hammock rat snake, just under 4' long. She is a hilariously over confident girl, making up for her relatively small size with a vibrant and spunky personality. Her appetite knows no bounds and often leads to her launching herself with reckless abandon at whatever she thinks is food. Luckily, she calms down very quickly during handling and likes to perch on shoulders.
Skotos
Father
Skotos is a 2015 black milksnake measuring 6' long. He is a big, busy guy and doesn't really have an "off" switch, which makes trying to handle him quite an adventure. He is very docile and curious, needing to check out everything around him.
Sterling
Father
Sterling is a 2019 male Neotropical bird eating snake, measuring nearly 5' long. He has gone through a dramatic colour change as he ages, which this species is famous for, and continues to become more blue and orange over time. He is a very docile boy and is a joy to handle and interact with.
