Found throughout southern North American through South America. These are large semi-arboreal constrictors. They are very common throughout the pet trade. There are several sub-species.
Feather
Harley
A rescue from Oklahoma, she was only fed enough to keep her alive and kept in a small enclosure. Consequently- she had muscle atrophy and difficulty taking appropriately sized prey. She is doing well now and is very friendly.
Chiquita
These pythons are from Africa and are very common reptile pets. They are rather docile and only get about 5 ft. in length. They can be difficult to get feeding. They often end up in rescues because there are so many in the pet trade.
Heptet, Skeletor, Poppie, Rennie, and Sheera - (Pictured Heptet) They are all rescues from similar situations. They were pets that the owner became bored with, and began to neglect.
They are all starting to put on weight and they all are friendly if a little shy.
There are several different subspecies, found throughout North America. Wonderful eaters they eat other snakes, rodents and amphibians. They are generally friendly and outgoing and need a large enclosure to be happy. They are also pigs that need to be fed quite often.
Latifah
A Mexican black Kingsnake that was given to Steph as a gift.
She is very friendly and a great eater.
Corazon
An albino California Kingsnake, she is a rescue from Oklahoma. She is functionally blind, so can be aggressive
Maurice
A grey banded kingsnake, he was given to me after a friend of mine and I saved his life by convincing him to eat as a hatchling. He is a great little snake, and is finally starting to grow.
A very large species of tortoise found in Africa. They eat mostly grasses. They are becoming more frequent in the pet trade which is unfortunate; due to their large adult size and very long life they are also becoming more frequently found in reptile rescues.
Geo- This little guy was brought to me when the owners couldn’t figure out why he wouldn’t eat. It was discovered that he had an upper respiratory infection brought on by low temperatures.
They are found throughout the dry arid areas of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Kazakhstan. They are strict herbivores and eat mostly grasses.
Gertrude- She was brought to me by a reptile dealer that couldn't sell her for “good money” because she had lost an eye. She is a great little girl and very friendly.
