Yes it’s true we come to you!☀️

🐢 Did you know the gopher tortoise is a keystone species in Florida?

By digging deep burrows, these tortoises create homes for hundreds of other animals. Protecting one tortoise helps protect an entire ecosystem! 🌿

Just a random Friday for us! 🐢💚

While it might look like these red-footed tortoises are just relaxing, they’re actually getting some important care!

Supervised soaking is a great way to give your tortoises an extra opportunity to drink water and help keep their skin hydrated. It can also encourage them to go to the bathroom!

For red-footed tortoises in particular, humidity is especially important. These tortoises come from warm, humid environments, and maintaining the right conditions in captivity can be challenging.

Their natural habitats can experience humidity levels around 77–89% throughout the year. While Florida’s outdoor humidity can sometimes reach similar levels, the humidity inside our homes can be much lower.

That’s why providing proper humidity in their enclosure, along with opportunities to soak and drink, is an important part of keeping them healthy! 🌿🐢

🌵 Tried something new today!

I picked some prickly pear fruit and decided to make agua de tuna con limón and WOW, it turned out so good!

Now I’m definitely thinking some prickly pear might have to find a permanent home on our future property. 🌵❤️

Although… I think it’s missing something with a little kick. 👀😂

Have you ever had prickly pear fruit or made anything with it?

While I haven’t been posting any of the animals until I get the licenses for exhibition from FWC (out of extra caution) I can post some cool plants! This is a Nepenthes pitcher plant or a carnivorous plant we brought with us and is able to be outside which it couldn’t be in Tennessee. What you see in this picture is a pitcher that will probably open in the next day or two and be able to catch and eat bugs and eventually small invasive lizards like anoles that are extremely prevalent around here.

Hello friends, family, and supporters of Curlin’s Exotics!
I wanted to officially announce that we are moving from Tennessee to Florida.
After weeks of navigating legal paperwork, making sure we had everything in order, and figuring out how to safely transport all of our animals on an 11+ hour trip, I can finally take a deep breath. Monday, August 3rd, is our final night in Tennessee.
I want to sincerely thank everyone who has supported Curlin’s Exotics throughout this journey. Your encouragement has meant more than you know, and your continued support will help us regain our momentum once we obtain the proper exhibition license required by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC).
Leaving Tennessee is incredibly bittersweet. This is where Curlin’s Exotics began, where my family built so many memories, and where we’ve had the privilege of meeting so many amazing people. During my last scheduled Tennessee show a few weeks ago, it really hit me that we weren’t just leaving a business behind—we were leaving a community that has become like family.
While we will no longer be operating in Tennessee, we would truly appreciate your continued support on social media. Every like, comment, share, and follow helps introduce new people to Curlin’s Exotics and supports us as we begin this exciting new chapter in Florida.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for believing in us. We can’t wait to see what the future holds, and we’re excited to bring even more educational experiences, conservation efforts, and amazing animals to the next chapter of Curlin’s Exotics.
Here’s to new beginnings! 🦎🐍🐢❤️
