Do not get in the way of her escape attempts. This is a warning.

Spring Ren is officially over 💔, and this is probably one of our favorite photos from the entire season. 🥰

Tattooed Santa got a new boa and he wants your help to name him! He has a few names picked out already, and it'll be up to all of us to vote between those.

We will have jars at our booth at the Georgia Renaissance Festival this coming 3 day weekend for you all to vote for your favorite name(s).
The name with the most votes wins! Come see us this Saturday, Sunday, or Monday for more details and help name the next ambassador animal to join our family!

We have so many folks tell us how calming and healing our reptile interactions can be.
Occasionally, this can mean that a guest needs to remain in the center circle of our booth at the Georgia Renaissance Festival and stay a little longer than normal. We're proud to offer that safe space of patience and understanding for you to take a little more time and let our star reptile calm you down.
We know the excitement and crowds of the festival can be a lot to take in and can weigh heavily on your mental health at the moment. So come see us, get your reptile cuddles in, and be mindful that others interacting may need a bit longer with an animal, but you will also get that opportunity to hold a bit longer as well, if it's what you need 💚
