The Only Good Snake, Is A Live Snake.

About Me

ALL PHOTOS ARE COPYRIGHT/PROPERTY OF HOMEGROWNHERPS AND MAY NOT BE USED WITH OUT PERMISSION.

Born and raised in Queens, N.Y. (Richmond Hill). Moved to S. Florida about 1989. Moved to N. Florida after Hurricane Charley Destroyed our home.

Florida pretty much sucks! Theres' not many people you count on here, you can take them on face value and that’s about it. If there's one thing I miss about N.Y. , its the people. You knew who your friends were, and if they were your friends they'd do anything for you.

I’m pretty much a tell it like it is person; you can deal w/ it or move on. I like people to be the same, no bullshit.

I collect & breed reptiles, into conservation and education of reptiles. Also into nature, the outdoors, camping & canoeing, music (most types) Metal, Hard Rock, Classic Rock, Blues, Native American Indian. What I don't like : Hunting - Rap - Drama Queens - People who drive to slow - Wal Mart - People who can't read simple instructions.I'll add more when I think of it ! So with that said...

Home Grown Herps offers only captive bred and raised animals, all of which are produced at the Home Grown Herps Facility. We do not offer animals produced by other breeders, nor do we offer imported or wild caught animals for sale. On occasion we do offer animals acquired in trades that we have had to take as part of the trade deal. These animals are only offered for sale if they are in perfect health.
