Reptile spotlight:
This is one of several ball pythons that are in the rescue. We have young ones, old ones, medium sized ones....
They need homes ASAP!
Please ADOPT !
We are currently at capacity, and cannot accept any more reptiles until we have adopted some out.

Folks, two bills, HB1242 & SB477, have been introduced that will BAN MOST EXOTIC
ANIMALS!!! SB477 IS currently in committee (Senate committee on Natural Resources),
will ban all larger exotic animals, including large snakes. The House Bill was just
introduced last night (1/20), and has not been referred to committee yet. It will
go to the House committee on Agriculture.
Please see the VA Reptile Rescue Facebook
page, which has info on how to fight this bill. As written, hundreds (thousands?)
of VA families could lose their pets or their jobs because of this.

PLEASE share this video with everyone! It shows what happens when turtles and tortoises are not cared for properly. Even if you don’t own a turtle, sharing this info may be the only way to find owners who aren’t doing things right. And if we find those owners, we can correct the problems and help the turtles! PLEASE SHARE!!
We are located just outside of Manassas, VA. We do not advertise our physical location,
as we do not want people showing up, nor do we want animals just left at our doorstep.
We are NOT open for “browsing”, as we are a home-
