Animal Purchases

• DOA (Dead on Arrival) Guarantee: If your animal arrives dead or in poor condition, report it immediately upon unpacking with photo evidence. You have a 3-hour window to do so. After this, no claims will be accepted. For a confirmed DOA, we’ll refund or exchange the animal’s cost, excluding the shipping fee.
• Health Guarantee:
  • Pre-orders: We inspect all animals twice — once on arrival and once before shipping. We guarantee their health for 2 days after you receive them.
  • Available Now: No health guarantee is offered for animals ordered post-import. However, we observe them for a few days before release. We don’t guarantee against the impacts of stressful home environments or insufficient care knowledge.
  • Even though our animals arrive in excellent shape and the same as other pets in your household, a fecal test is suggested to check for possible parasites. These are not always present, and this practice should be part of the routine for any chameleon keeper. A yearly fecal test should be run on any reptile collection, WC or CB.
• Animal Quality: Our animals are of exceptional quality. Their wild-caught nature is only evident because we inform you. Unless stated otherwise, the images on our website depict the actual animals for sale. Note that many reptiles may undergo colour and pattern changes, but the animal in the picture is what you’ll receive.
• Sexing: We endeavour to determine the sex of our animals accurately. However, due to certain species’ intricacies, we can’t guarantee the sex unless explicitly mentioned in the description.
• First come, first served policy:  We have a first come, first served policy. No orders will be taken verbally, by email or via messenger.
