Life Time of Experience

As lifelong reptile enthusiasts, Paul Barclay's early days were spent collecting frogs in the creek to building outdoor exhibits to house a collection of Shingleback Skinks or "Bobbies" as they are called in Australia. Paul has always been committed to providing a great habitat for reptiles to live in. Eventually, he progressed to keeping turtles, lizards, monitors and pythons before moving to the USA where he has kept a more extensive list of species and have worked with some of the biggest names in the reptile business. 

In recent years Paul has provided consulting services for various pet industry suppliers, leaders and manufacturers which has given him a unique perspective and vast personal experience in this fascinating industry. It is with this unique experience that Paul and his crew are now singularly focused of raising the standards of keeping pet reptiles
