Reptile consulting

Evidence-based husbandry, on call.

We help owners, breeders, educational institutions, and other rescues design reptile enclosures that work — measured by the animal’s long-term welfare, not how it looks on social media.

Services

What we audit and design

Enclosure setup

End-to-end design and equipment selection for a species-appropriate enclosure: substrate, heating, UVB, hides, plants, and humidity gradients.

Husbandry audits

An on-site or photo-based audit of an existing setup, with a written report of what to keep, fix, and replace — and why.

Environmental optimization

Lighting (UVB, photoperiod), temperature gradients, humidity, airflow, and enrichment optimization based on measured readings.

Beginner guidance

Pre-purchase consultations for first-time owners: realistic costs, lifespan expectations, and species-fit assessment.

Species compatibility

Multi-animal household assessments, cohabitation feasibility (rare and species-dependent), and risk reviews.

Institutional consults

For schools, museums, and small zoos: enclosure standards review, quarantine protocol design, and staff training.

Our standard
“Design the environment first. The animal will tell you if you got it right.”

We measure setups before we recommend changes — temperature gradients, UVI readings, humidity profiles, hide accessibility, line-of-sight stressors. Recommendations are specific and grounded in the data.

Reports include a parts list, vendor recommendations, and a re-check schedule.
