Heads up that we will be closed this Sunday so be sure to grab your feeders before then! Wishing you all a happy Easter weekend! 🐣

Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Head down to The Museum of Nature & Science to see some slithery friends enjoying their meals! 🍽️

Granny, our Desert Kingsnake, may be in her senior era at almost 40 years old, but that doesn't stop her from being one of our best eaters!

It's time for our monthly "Snake Feedings" and you are invited to join us. Come down on Saturday, April 12, at 11am to see Granny's friends in action.

The Museum of Nature & Science is located at 411 N. Main St. and is FREE to the public! All ages are welcome.

For more information, contact Lea Harriss, Museum Assistant (Living Collections), at [email protected] or 575-528-3472 TTY: 711.

Unfortunately our cricket order got lost in transit so we may be out until Tuesday 😭

We’re so sorry for this inconvenience! Please bear with us in the meantime!

You guys have been keeping us on our toes trying to stay stocked on critters!

With so many of our animals going to new homes, we’d love to hear how they’re doing and check out their new digs!
Please share updates or photos in the comments or tag us in posts of your Cross City pets! 🦎

Update (3-23-25): Thanks to the support from the community, Nala’s expenses have been covered! Thank you all so much for your thoughts, shares, and donations! We are all so grateful ❤️

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated to the Nala fund! We are overwhelmingly grateful for everyone’s help ❤️

A few of you have asked if Kevin has a venmo or cashapp you can donate to so we now have those listed at the physical donation jar

Thank you all again for keeping Nala and Kevin in your thoughts!

Update (3-23-25): Thanks to the support from the community, Nala’s expenses have been covered! Thank you all so much for your thoughts, shares, and donations! We are all so grateful ❤️

Nala has been the highlight of Cross City Exotics for almost two years now and has touched the heart of everyone she’s met!

If you’ve been in recently, you may have noticed her absence and that’s because she developed a mystery infection and has been on the mend receiving ongoing treatment. This came at a bad time for Kevin while he’s been struggling with his own medical issues on top of paying for Nala’s vet bills.

We’ve set up a place for donations at the shop in case anyone is able to help Kevin and Nala in their time of need!

Is cleaning enclosures leaving bags under your eyes?
We have an easy solution!

We now have small and large bags of pre-made bedding that is perfect for most reptiles and invertebrates!

We love working with local breeders, especially when it means we get to play with more geckos!

We currently have an adult female Leachianus gecko and a subadult male Chahoua gecko (who is proudly showing off his camouflage skills in the third pic)🔎🦎

Leopard geckos are one of the most common pet reptiles (and for good reason!) but these girls really stand out from the rest!

We currently have three stunning adult leopard geckos available!
