and some more!!


its got heat tape and a dimmer all set up! they DONATED this to us and delivered it for free when they saw how the snakes we being kept. words cant express how grateful i (we) am. i gave them, along with kellys daughter a tour of the place, and they loved it. kelly said some changes did need to be made, but their heart was "in the right place". i think shes right.


THANK YOU SOOO MUCH KELLY AND MARC!!!

Kudos to Kelly...she rocks!!! (and Marc too :D)

We wanted to help make a differance for the animals, I think that anyone here who had the means would have done the same.
We helped by bringing back a yellow rat snake that needed to be released in central fl. He now has a great home. He was released in a lightly wooded area near a farm in se sumpter county. My grandparents live out there and the farm and wooded area in on the other side of their back yard. My grandpa was happy to have "a ole rat snake around" to keep the rodents down.
Honestly I was expecting the place to be worse than it was. I still believe after talking to the manager/owner that he could do things much better but I do feel that his heart is in the right place and hopefully this will help him get things turned around for the reptiles. My daughter Sierra is still talking about the deer and feeding the baby birds. I just wish we could do more.
Oh and my Boyfriends name is Art. (It's okay he mumbles :D )

Art...Marc...sounds the same :D sorry mang

+1 for you guys.

oh man im embarrassed! ahha

i totally agree kelly. but hopes and dreams wont fix anything until he is willing to actually do it, ya know?

thank you soooo much!

Moved Them to their *NEW* tubs yet?




I know if you go garage saleing, you can normally find reptile tanks, supplies, and a lot of storage containers like sterlite. Just an idea.



And what major city are you around? i will look for containers and cheap stuff in your area.

ANY updates?

nope. they arent in yet. i dont know what to say. ive asked and asked. im working on it. the guy is.....i dont know what to say

WOAH! I just looked through this ENTIRE thred just to see. That is amazing what you are doing! I would do the exact same thing. ._.; From what I hear that owner really kinda... ticks me off? I don't know,it seems like his heart is in the right place, but I would no patience fo4r someone like that. That pond looks AMAZING! And those turtles must be having a blast, haha. What you are doing just makes everyone want to smile, grab their phonebooks, and want to help out. :P I really hope those snakes go into their awesome new tubs. I don't understand why you have to keep ASKING him to do it, when it would obviously be good for them? But what do I know, I'm young. >_>;

Woops double post! I edited this one to say sorry!
