Thought I would post a small update, since I’ve had a influx of messages lately!
So, here’s what you need to know.
🐁 ALL rodent operations have been stopped for the time being. Pet and feeder.
My rodent-lovers, be assured, this isn’t over! Mice will always hold spot in my heart and business and I look forward to producing many more in my future. Just not a hobby I can dedicate myself to at this time.
To my feeder customers, I do apologize for the sudden stop in supply and I am happy to direct you to other resources locally.
🪲… theres not an isopod emoji ok?
Ive drastically cut down the kinds of bugs I have available, and plan to only produce a select favorite few isopods. Those will be announced at a later date.
🐍 Snakes available have been few and far between, and will continue to be that way. (I love updates from customers who have purchased animals from me, btw!) I kept a few essential pieces of my collection and look forward to producing at least a few more ball python clutches down the line. All pairing has been stopped at this time, but I will continue to monitor my females for reproductive progress to the best of my ability.

Some of you know I had recently expanded operations to include a small flock of beautiful button quail of various colors. These birds are safe, still in my care, and eggs (for hatching or feeding off) will continue to be available at The Midwest Reptile Show. I have also began working to decipher their interesting genetics, and I’ve taken quite an interest in selective breeding. I look forward to adding a couple more varieties to my collection and producing even more beautiful birds in the future.
Seeing as I have relocated to the east side of Indianapolis, I’m hopeful many of you will benefit from my connections on the west! Please message if youre looking for something you typically sourced from me, I will do my best to point you in the right direction.
Thank you ALL for your business, for your concern, your advices and support. I had no idea my little community was so caring. 🥹
I hope to see you March 1st! 🧡
TL;DR -
Autumn Leaves Exotics is once again on extended hiatus. Operations had to be cut quickly, due to abrupt relocation. I’m thankful to be out of that situation and setting in somewhere new. I appreciate everyone who reached out with concern, thank you for your continued support! 🧡
