About
My name is Sydney, and I currently breed crested geckos, sand boas, and I'm growing out several future projects including fat tail geckos, chahoua geckos, and corn snakes! I first got into reptiles in 2015 through volunteering at the BGSU Herpetarium, where my love for reptiles grew through caring for and helping breed the sand boas there. I first bred my own pair of sand boas in 2019, and joined the breeding world of crested geckos a year later in 2020. I care deeply about reptiles and am happy to help answer husbandry questions; making sure my animals go to caring and prepared homes is a top priority for me!
Store Policy
MAKING AN INQUIRY
I take incredible care in choosing homes for my animals, and aspire to be the kind of reptile breeder who remains available to their customers for questions and advice as long as I’m needed. I ask that all prospective buyers have an adequate set up prepared before purchase, and be willing to discuss husbandry to make the animals’ transitions as easy as possible.
SHIPPING
I ship on Tue-Wed only through Ship Your Reptiles, Reptiles2You, or Redline Shipping, using FedEx Priority Overnight shipping to your closest FedEx hub. If your animal is DOA, you must send a video of the dead animal and you will be refunded for the cost of the animal itself or offered a replacement if one is available. I do not offer shipping directly to doorstep, and only ship when temperatures on both sides are safe for the given animal. For sand boas, this means 40-93 degrees, and for crested geckos I will only ship between 40-85 degrees. Crested geckos will not be shipped until they are at least 5 grams in weight, but may be picked up locally.
HEALTH AND LIVE ARRIVAL GUARANTEE
I offer a live arrival and 10-day health guarantee on all animals sold and shipped in safe weather conditions to your local FedEx hub. In the unlikely event that an animal is dead on arrival, the buyer must provide immediate video proof of the animal to receive a full refund or equivalent animal as a replacement. If the animal passes during the 10-day health guarantee time frame, the buyer must still provide video proof of the animal and also proof of correct husbandry to receive a refund or equivalent animal as a replacement.
A gecko dropping its tail during shipping/under stress is not covered under the live arrival/ 10-day health guarantee; this is a natural, non-lethal stress response that does not effect the quality or overall value of the animal. **Sex is not guaranteed on any gecko under 15g, but I pore sex to the best of my ability for every listing!**
HOLDS, PAYMENT PLANS AND REFUNDS
I do not currently hold any animals that are not paid in full, nor do I accept payment plans at this time. Trades will be considered on a case by case basis. All paid in full animals are on hold for no additional fee until shipping temperatures are safe on both sides. If at any time before the animal is shipped, the buyer changes their mind and no longer wants the animal, a full refund of the amount paid will be given unless I had to hold the animal as unavailable for sale for more than a month, in which case I will deduct a 10% holding fee from the refund. After shipping, if you receive the animal and are unsatisfied for any reason, please contact me about shipping your animal back and getting a replacement or refund, which will be the total cost of the animal before shipping minus a 10% non refundable fee since the animal will have to go through a quarantine and be unable to be listed for multiple months to avoid stress from shipping multiple times in a short time frame. This 10% fee can be reconsidered or waived on a case by case basis, but the buyer will always be responsible for shipping costs for the return of the animal.
