Our Story

Founded in 2018 by lifelong reptile enthusiast Michael Reeves, Sublime Reptiles began as a small breeding project in a garage and has grown into one of the most trusted names in the exotic pet community. Michael's passion for reptiles started at age 12 when he received his first leopard gecko, and it never stopped. After years of working in corporate pet stores and witnessing the poor conditions many reptiles endured, he decided to create a company that prioritizes animal welfare above all else.

Today, Sublime Reptiles operates out of a 5,000‑square‑foot facility in Florida, housing over 300 breeding specimens and a dedicated team of herpetologists, veterinarians, and customer care specialists. We've shipped healthy reptiles to thousands of happy customers across the United States, and our commitment to quality remains unwavering.
