A passion for animals combined with a deep seeded interest in prehistoric creatures mixed all together with a love of passing on knowledge! This unique blend makes up the foundation of my brand: Fossil and Fang Exotics! Here at FFE we specialize in teaching children using exciting reptile encounters to stimulate young minds. While also being a small but efficient breeding operation, we can focus deeper into biology, With an emphasis on BIOactive or naturalistic habitat design!

FFE offers kid inclusive presentations, lessons and activities! Critter classes use live animals for up close study, petting zoo style with a focus on beginner biology, herpetology, and ecology. Other lessons focusing on paleontology, geology, and taphonomy are hands-on with fossilized specimens and plenty of colorful visuals. Even understanding how art is used to fill our world with knowledge that can be passed down from scientist to scientist by mapping out geology, drawing out skeletal remains or studing animal coloration. Check out my calendar of events for upcoming events and classes, or contact me to book a private event.

Crested gecko's are #6 on the top 10 most popular pet reptiles, mostly due to their adorable nature, calm handleable temperament, flexible care options and overall hardiness. These animals make great first pets while offering an engaging lesson in responsibility for young children, while being easy enough that mom and dad don't mind helping out when needed! Baby geckos are individually priced! Check out my Crested gecko careguide to learn more, and my sales gallery for available individuals.

Embraced with passion for design, I found setting up enclosures for all of my creatures extremely rewarding. Paired with wanting the best for my animals, and to offer the most enrichment possible in their tiny allocated spaces, I discovered the world of BIOACTIVE enclosures! Bioactive means that enclosure itself replicates as much as possible the natural biology of the ecosystem that creature would have access to in its wild natural habitat! Basically, it's bringing the outside into your living room! These enclosures are full terrariums complete with natural plants and hides, paired with a proper mix of dirt, all the bugs that will eat your animals waste, and keep your dirt aerated and the plants healthy. It's the most enrichment one could possibly achieve for a reptile! I offer individualized pricing for designing and executing a set up geared toward your reptile and the enclosure space allotted!
