About Us
Who Are We?
Scaled Vertebrates, like many reptile breeders, is the result of a lifetime of fascination with animals, specifically reptiles. We pursued this love of animals by continuing our education with bachelor’s degrees in biology and advanced degrees in vertebrate morphology. We have a combined 12 years of experience with mammals, fishes, and reptiles. Furthermore, we currently perform research using reptiles as a study system to investigate how animals move through their environment. If you are interested in this research please see my lab page for more information about it HERE.
What is our Mission?
We strive to provide the highest quality animals with the highest quality service. All of our breeders are carefully chosen and selectively bred to bring you the highest quality animals possible. We produce a small number of clutches each year to ensure that the individual animals we sell are given the highest quality care from the very start of their lives. We have chosen to focus our breeding efforts in three distinct areas: 1) California Kingsnakes, 2)Central American Milksnakes, and 3) Sand Boas. We have carefully chosen the morphs we are working with based on our own personal preferences and our breeders have been obtained from the highest quality sources.
