I'm interested in 3 species, hermanns, red foot, and greeks. Was wondering if there were any breeders here. I'm interested in both hatch-lings and juveniles. Reply or pm me please.

Hello and welcome

We have members from all over the world, but shipping over international boundaries isn't possible... even State boundaries can be tricky in the US.

Where are you located?

If you haven't already, can I recommend that you read the following written by species experts working hard to correct the outdated information that is widely spread.

It's a very arid climate in SoCal and Red Foots are a forest species needing high humidity - you may wish to drop them from your list.

Thanks for the advice!

Hi! I have a 4" female hermann. If you're interested in it, I will share you some pics of it.
