I sold out of offspring for the year. It has been pretty busy so updates have been few and far between but I hope to make that change with the new year, but with qualifying exams in the Spring we should not hold our breaths. I am thinking of letting go of one of my LTC (2+ years) proven pairs of Cameron Highlands Cat Geckos is anyone is interested.

I have always had a love for amphibians and reptiles, but only began working with non-native species in 2000. I worked at the East Bay Vivarium while studying Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California Berkeley. EBV allowed me to start my herp collection, which began as a bunch of random pets and slowly became breeding projects. I am now studying at the University of California, Santa Cruz persuing a Doctorate in Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology. The mild Northern California weather has allowed me to specialize in the captive breeding of temperate gecko species. At times I offer high quality captive bred geckos and other herps for sale.

I currently work with Cameron Highland and Silver-eye Malaysian Cat Geckos (Aureloscalobates felinus), Crested Geckos (Rhacodactylus ciliatus), Gargoyle Geckos (Rhacodactylus ariculatus), Slender Prehensile Tail Geckos (Rhacodactylus sarasinorum), Amel Fat Tail Geckos (Hemitheconyx caudicinctus), Fire Salamanders (Salamandra salamandra), Tarahumara Mt. Kingsnakes (L. pyromelana knoblochi), Arizona Mt. Kingsnakes (L. pyromelana pyromelana) Jungle Carpet Pythons (Morelia spilota) and Green Tree Pythons (Morelia viridis)

I also blog on a semi-regular basis at www.eastbayvivarium.blogspot.com
