Getting Ready for the Wheaton Show

We just finished packing and taking inventory for the show in Wheaton on Sunday. Supreme Gecko will be adding a new item to our stock. Breeder boxes by Exotera. They are stackable and very affordable for the hobbyist. The small box will be fine for a new hatchling of a crested gecko and the medium box will house a juvenile crested gecko.

Watching the incubators at Supreme Gecko Facility

Today I found a leopard gecko that had hatched. The little guy thought he was so tough hissing when I misted his tub and jumping around.
This is one of my favorite parts of working in the facility. I check the incubators multiple times throughout the day in order to get the new hatchling in its new home as soon as possible. It is also fun to find the new babies before Wally does :)

Working in Supreme Gecko facility

Worked in the Supreme gecko facility today. Feeding, cleaning, misting, and my favorite part collecting eggs. I collected 8 batches of eggs this afternoon.

Many of you have heard bits and pieces of the proposed bill HR 669, in fact there is an excellent thread here click here . Please read this for more details on the bill.

Yesterday, I was listening to Gary Orner's Blog Talk Radio show and found out that Brian Barczyk from SnakeBytes.tv planned to provide a video on the subject. Brian has shared so much information to the hobby and has now provided an easy way for you and I to take quick action on bill HR 669.

The video is short but to the point! Again, I would strongly suggest that you read the thread above first, educate yourself, and watch NO HR 669 Video.



I will be the first to admit that I'm not as engaged as most on this topic. This is something, as a reptile breeder, reptile keeper, or even small mammal/bird/fish keeper we should all be concerned about and should voice our opinion on. The bill HR 669 WILL affect us all. We need to be more informed and be in a position to support this bill. I hope you feel the same.

Brian has made it that much easier for us to understand and to react!

We were very excited at Supreme Gecko to find our first hatch of Pictus today. There are 2 hatchlings and they are very active. Their patterns are very distinctive and clear. They are very small but fiesty.

Saturday - Wally went to Wheaton for the Animal Expo. He and Jordan sold animals, supplies, and food. It was a very busy and profitable day for them.

We just finished feeding the crested geckos, moved some males around in our breeding project and collected day gecko eggs.

We are very busy maintaining animals enclosures and collecting eggs at this time of the year. I have become much more involved in helping with feeding and egg collection. It is fun to see how many eggs I can collect on a daily basis.

Our bearded dragons are breeding now and I noticed one of the females laying eggs. It was fascinating to watch her dig a spot and then over the course of several hours lay her eggs, then bury them. I collected the eggs and now we will wait to see the babies hatch out.
