   Welcome to Cascade Herpetological.I've been captive breeding a variety of reptiles since 1998. For the most part, I breed reptiles mainly as a hobby along with my very helpful & understanding wife. Our main agenda is to produce quality herps & not quantity. Unless otherwise noted, a large majority of the animals we sell are produced at our facility so we can 100% guarantee the genetics & linage of each individual.
   We take great pride in our collection & the reptiles we produce. From only purchasing quality animals from reputable sources for our breeding stock to investing in some of the best caging, equipment, & supplies available on the market in our opinion. Needless to say, we spend a lot of time, energy, & resources maintaining our collection top condition to insure we produce quality herps.
   My interest in reptiles covers a wide range of herps. Because I don't have the ability to own them all, I concentrate on the ones that I enjoy the most. This is one reason why I've been known to have good success with a species then get out of them in order to make time & space to pursue new challenges.
   Currently, our main focus is on Ball Pythons, Milk Snakes, & African Fa-tail Geckos. We have some other small projects such as Albino Rosy Boas, Sunset Johnii Sand Boas, Red-tail Boas, Yellow Anacondas, & Western Hog-nose. Recently, we started getting into Carpet & Woma Pythons. In the future we hope more with these along with some of the other Austraian Pythons.
   We have become known for our Leopard Geckos over the past few years. But for a variety of personal reasons & circumstances beyond our control, we have decided to no longer work with them. It was not easy decision for us to come to, but we felt it was in our best interest to discontinue working with Leos. I've really enjoyed breeding Leos over the past eight plus years & will miss having them around.
   Being this is a hobby that we love & has grown a bit out of control, we both put in many hours maintaining our collection while still doing our day jobs. It can get a little hectic at times around here, but it's a labor of love we find rewarding.
   I must also emphasize, that I'm a reptile guy. I'm not the most computer friendly person or a professional photographer. So please forgive any errors & some of the not so good pictures. Especially the Milk Snakes.
