Riverside Reptile Breeders?
Has anyone dealt with Pat at Riverside Reptile Breeders? What was your experience?
Re: Riverside Reptile Breeders?
I tried...at least sort of. There doesn't seem to be a search function, and I don't have an account set up there yet. I'll have to do that when I get home from work later today. Just thought I'd check here real quick. Thanks.

Thanks for the update. It was a really nice looking kingpin, but when I couldn't find much info I kind of moved on. I am working with Bob Futo right now on a jigsaw blast.

Why a red flag? Feel free to contact Heather to see how she likes the kingpin.

We can always provide references for the future. Would have loved to have done some business with you?

We did business with them last year and would do business again with Pat. We purchased a female adult pastel last year and she arrived safe and in great condition. She is currently gravid at this time.
Thanks

I saw a red flag because hatchling bps are almost always ready for hopper mice straight out of the egg. I even know a very well respected breeder who starts many on adult mice. A pinkie is a grossly undersized prey, unless it is a total runt.
