About
We are Andrew and Sarah Gilpin of Living Art Creations Herpetoculture ( L.A.C. Herps ). We keep and breed a variety of geckos, specializing mainly in high end New Caledonian geckos. Our other projects range from Madagascar, Australia, and various other parts of the world. We've been involved with the reptile industry since 2002, when Andrew bought Sarah her first crested gecko. This gecko was the first pet reptile she had kept and was the start of it all. We quickly fell in love with the species and geckos in general. With such an incredible variety of colors, patterns, behavior, and adaptations, it's easy to see why people quickly become addicted to keeping geckos!

~ We ship via FedEx overnight. Shipping is available Tuesday, and Wednesday most weeks if weather is suitable. Delivery usually occurs by 10:30 the following morning if shipping to home depending on location. Hub pick ups are usually available by 9AM or when your local hub opens. Animals are dropped off directly at the nearest airport hub, usually later in the evening to reduce travel times and risk.
*** Overnight/ Next Day shipping does NOT necessarily mean we will be shipping the day of or following your purchase. We must verify shipping information, temperatures, potential weather/holiday delays/risk, and availability of ourselves and the buyer to ship and receive.
~ We offer a live arrival guarantee if the following shipping guidelines are met:
~Home delivery- Shipping with Temperatures of 40F-85F ( First delivery attempt )
~Hub pick up - Shipping with Temperatures of 25-95F
~ Hub pick up is the safest and preferred method of shipping. It helps reduce transit time and potential carrier errors
~ Shipping outside of the above parameters will be considered on a case by case basis after a discussion with customers regarding concerns and risks, and may not be guaranteed.
*** We are not responsible for shipping delays or damages that are beyond our control.
*** International shipping is an available option throughout various parts of the year. We do not export directly, but there are many reliable vendors that import/export several times a year to many parts of the world. We can usually hold animals for export for 4-6 weeks. Priority will however go to domestic sales first in most cases. If you need help finding an importer/exporter please let us know and we will do our best to assist you.
