Hi all, my name is Seri, I am 32 from North Dakota. I am a self-employed dog groomer for 13 years now, own a grooming shop called The Grooming Gallery. I also raise crested and gargoyle geckos. No kids, but plenty of pets! Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday are the pembroke Corgis. Bella is my 7 year old merle Great Dane. Q-tip is my young corn snake. Juice and Bamboo are my funny little fire belly toads, and Lyric is a chorus frog I found in my 2nd story apartment in the dead of winter. He's now fat, happy and a permanent fixture. I love fish tanks and have a 125g parrot cichlid tank, 90g brackish growout tank for puffers and scats, 55g mbuna cichlids, 29g with jewel cichlid pair and a blue lobster named Norbert. 29 biocube reef that I spend far too much time staring at and absolutely love. 10g with Dwarf Mexican Orange crayfish and a 5 gallon split with 2 bettas. I love my fishies, and every single one has a name. I'm crazy. Certifiable really. I'm moving into a building I bought in the spring...anyone wanna come and move a hellalotta tanks?? :lol:
Then there are the geckos. I own Gallery Geckos and have a local store front that teaches kids of all ages (including us old kids that are young at heart) about geckos and other reptiles and pets. I'm big on education. I also offer exotic pet sitting and fish tank maintenance services locally, so my life is consumed by animals. Awesome huh?
I raise high quality geckos that make good pets. I don't let them go to homes until they are eating well, shedding well, and the new owners are well educated and set-up to care for them. Currently my brood consists of my crested boys, Saki, Simba, Sullivan, Schnapps, Stonehenge and Sodapop. The gals are Sorbet, Sprout, Silver, Saphira, Sterling, Sangria, Snapple, Sparky, Suede, Shasta, Sherbert. Sushi and Squirt are the juvies and don't want me to know what gender they are yet. The hatchlings are Java (named after my recently deceased Nanday of 16 years), Shampoo, Soapy, Suds, Scissors, Seven, Seska, Skyy, and Stormy. My garg ladies are Sunkist, Sparrow, and Star. The guys are Stitch and Seltzer. You can see them at on my website at www.gallerygeckos.com.
Notice a theme? :roll:
I have a baby tokay named George and a chahoua named Squishy that will be coming to me this spring.
I am deaf and read lips, Wyatt is my hearing assistance dog. I love to quilt, anything artsy and crafty. I have no kids, am divorced, so I have the time to spend with my animals that they require and I love it.
I just rescued a beardie named Reptar from a friend whose son wasn't caring for him properly...wasn't planning on a beardie despite always wanting one as I'm use to the positively easy requirements of my geckos compared to all the lighting issues for other reptiles...but I promptly went out and spent $200 on my free rescue boy, so apparently he is staying with me despite my original intentions of simply finding him a new home, haha. I fell in love, he's SO SWEET and silly! Look for his own thread in the rescue forum.
Sooo...that's me. Nice to meet you all, looking forward to learning more about caring for my dragon.
