Mike the Reptile Guy

One of our recent rescues. Juliet. She is absolutely the sweetest girl. She enjoys her range time and Jenni spoils her to death. This morning she's keeping her company while she works.

Come see us Saturday, March 14, from Noon to 2pm at Pet Supply Plus for their Scales and Tails event. Bee & Bug Exotic Pet Rescue will be there featuring Mike the Reptile Guy and some of our friends.

Critters everywhere!

Venomous. . . . my final frontier. Illinois makes it nearly impossible.

Update: Doll has acclimated nicely. We've added Dave, a Chaco Golden Knee tarantula, and Ghost, a finicky Striped Knee tarantula that likes to burrow and hide. Tomorrow, we meet Sarah. Sarah is a very light normal colored Burmese python. Burms are the ball pythons of what I call the Big 4 large snakes (Anaconda, Burmese, Retic, and Rock). They are puppy dog tame. I don't think you can honestly make them angry. They get huge! Doll, at full maturity, will likely be around 25 ft (she's halfway there), but only as big in diameter and my calf or lower thigh. On the other hand, Sarah at maturity will be between 18-22 feet in length and the diameter of a basketball (easily double Doll's weight). I'll post pics when I have her with me!

Everybody meet Dave. Dave is a Chaco Golden Knee new world tarantula that will grow to about 4"-5" in diameter.

Doll has settled in nicely. First feeding tomorrow. Man alive she's a pretty girl.

I'm so excited! Everybody meet Doll!

I've been asked to come out of retirement. . . How could I possibly say no?!?!

After a long enough hiatus, Mike the Reptile Guy wants to go back on the road! I need six. **6** guaranteed shows so that I can get the permits necessary to bring me to your event, venue, or etc. I've changed direction a little bit and I want to show you multiple spectrums of our friends which includes crocodilians and some venomous (all under my direct control as always). In order to provide this, I need verifiable shows. Let me bring the extreme to you!
