"Midnight"
Argentine Black and White Tegu

The Argentine Black and White Tegu is the largest species of the Tegu family. Its life span is about fifteen to twenty years. This terrestrial species inhabits the tropical rain forests of East and Central South America. Individuals of this species like dense foliage and forage for food, of which they consume as much as possible before going into hibernation in autumn. They also exhibit an unusually high level of intelligence among reptiles, along with a high level of physical activity during the wakeful period of the year.The Argentine tegu reaches lengths of 4 to 5.5 feet at maturity. Males are much larger and heavier than females, and develop jowls as they mature. This tegu is primarily a carnivore. Young animals are entirely carnivorous, but will accept, and must be given, fresh fruit and vegetables as they mature. Their diet should mainly consist of appropriate sized insects, raw meat such as chicken or turkey, and cooked eggs. Whole rodents are also a good source of nutrients, but should be given somewhat sparingly, as they are high in fat; tegus are prone to obesity and will happily over-eat if allowed.



"Toad"
Mali Uromastyx

There are six species (U. aegypticus, U. ornatus, U. ocellatus, U. acanthinurus, U. hardwicki, and U. benti) which are occasionally available in the United States. The other seven species are seldom, if ever, imported. Uromastyx aegypticus is the largest member of the genus, with individuals reaching 30 inches or more in total length and weighing several pounds. The other species are usually under 14 inches in total length.
 
Coloration is variable between and within species. Uromastyx aegypticus and Uromastyx hardwicki are usually dark to light brown. Uromastyx acanthinurus can be yellow, green, bright orange or a combination of these colors. Uromastyx ornatus are sexually dimorphic, with adult males being green or blue green with blotches of yellows and oranges. Females have more subtle yellows, browns, and some orange.






"Speedy"
Sulcata Tortoise

 The Sulcata Tortoise, also called the African Spurred Tortoise, is a species of tortoise which inhabits the southern edge of the Sahara desert, in northern Africa. Their diet provides them with most of their water requirements, but they do drink. They coat their skin with mud when available to cool off. When mud wallows are not available, they retreat to cooler burrows. Spurred tortoises are important to deserts because their burrows provide shelter for other animals. They do not hibernate, unlike many other types of tortoises, due to their natural environment being so close to the equator, and therefore temperate throughout the year. They love to dig, and make very long burrows, often much damper than the ground surface, which other species frequently sublet, making dens in alcoves off the main burrow. these animals provide significant challenges to their keepers, due to their dietary and temperature requirements, and their size. For one thing they make quite effective battering rams at 100 lb or more. They are very powerful and very persistent if they think you have something tasty in your house or on the other side of the fence. Red leaf lettuce, cucumbers, hay and dandelions are some of the better foods to make up the bulk of their diet. They will eat such things as caterpillars and snails if given the opportunity, but this also should be a very small portion of their diet.



"Sunny"
Ball Python 

The Ball Python is a non-venomous python species found in Africa. This is the smallest of the African pythons and is popular in the pet trade. Adults generally do not grow to more than 3-4 feet in length, some specimens have even even reached 5-6 feet, but this is very rare. The build is stocky while the head is relatively small. The color pattern is typically black with light brown-green side and dorsal blotches. The belly is a white or cream that may or may not include scattered black markings. The name ball python refers to the animal's tendency to curl into a ball when stressed or frightened.In the wild, the diet consists mostly of small mammals, such as African soft-furred rats, shrews and striped mice. Younger individuals have also been known to feed on birds. Captives usually do well on domestic rats and mice.






 "Poncho"
Albino Burmese Python

  The Burmese Python is the largest subspecies of the Indian Python and one of the 6 biggest snakes in the world, native to rain forest areas of Southeast Asia. They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic, but can also be found in trees. The Burmese python is one of the largest of all snakes, growing up to 23 feet and weighing up to 200 pounds. It continues to grow throughout life and the great length is due to the presence of a  large number of vertebrae. Females are typically larger than males. The Burmese Python is found throughout Southeast Asia including Burma, Thailand, Vietnam, China, and Indonesia. This python is an excellent swimmer and needs a permanent source of water. It can be found in grasslands, marshes, swamps, rocky foothills, woodlands, river valleys, and jungles with open clearings. They are good climbers and have prehensile tails. Albino means pale or colorless skin therefore he is all yellow and white.
