Theres four altogether, but two of them are lizards, so they won the "where the heck am I gonna post this" contest.

This is Spike. We actually got him in FL when we went to get EJ. No one had surrendered an iguana forever and so we figured, "Lets get one and get him growing so people can learn about them.
He's just a wee-little thingy:


So, what naturally HAS to happen when you get spend money on something? You got it!!
Someone GIVES you one!

This is Hannibal. About 9 months to a year old. Surrendered by his owners because he was "getting too big."


Petunia is an Eastern Box Turtle and was found scooting down the fast lane on Interstate 77, heading towards the Jersey rails which would have left her stuck in the road and would have been killed. Instead, my stupidness jumped out of the van, ticked off alot of people I don't know and successfully saved her little turtle life.


And our last rescue that just came in yesterday. A ball python named Hermes


Yeah... You saw right...

A guy calls me and says, "I have this ball python. Hes about 5 feet long. We found him when we were renovating some apartments a few years back so I kept him. I've been feeding him field mice and squirrels that I shoot with a pellet gun. Glad I read that article about ya'll in the newspaper. I was seriously just thinking about letting him go."
He's weighing in at 5 pounds 14 ounces. We didn't get a length yet as he's very wild. He took a frozen thawed rat very well, but I'm sure a vet visit will be in order for a parasite check.

How do you have a snake for multiple years and not know its a red tail boa??

aaww look at those cuties


well these days ppl dont bother to do there home work and just buy on a whim and then later get sick of it i will never understand ppl some times

Wow 'K'. My first snake was a Red Tail boa that I bought for my oldest son. I thought it was a girl but turned out to be a boy. My son left his girlfriend and lost his apt so I ended up with him.I had him for a long time and he was about ten ft when I gave him to a breeder.Seems he was a horney old dude cause the breeder kept wanting to give me babies but my wife said heck no you big dummie hahaha. It never bit me but it did bite my son once. He was showing it off and it got pissed and bit him. My wifelet me keep it till it escaped its enclosre one night and climbed up on the couch where she was sleeping. End of snake lol. yalls looks cool.. Love your baby turtle. .you know lizards scare me but I guess its cute"?.

I know lizards aren't your favorite, Tom, but I really admire you for not really freaking out.
Between you and me, igs are definitely not my fave, but hopefully I can get past what they are to get to their little souls and learn how to bring out their beauty. (If that made any sense)

Now, I'm gonna need all the help I can get with that turtle, you know. I'm a complete and total dummy when it comes to them, so feel free to start posting advice and giving me some guidance. I've had her since June and I'm still convinced she hates me.

Oh I never met a turtle that hated people. But I have a couple that will eat your toes.Specially My wifes painted toesies hahaha
