We will be selling off all of our equipment, once the animals have been placed. Check this list often as it will be changing regularly.
We still have hours on Sundays 11-2, e-mail to set up an appointment and/or get directions. WE STILL DON'T SHIP equipment OR animals. We have some jewelry for sale too in the "Store" section and here. That we WILL ship. Photos of the jewelry are being updated daily. There is a LOT of stuff here. So check back often.
If you want to adopt, you must come in person. That has not changed. We have received several e-mails from people who are asking us to ship them animals. That is not going to happen. Sorry.
Aquariums are $1/gallon, for example $20 gallon tank = $20. We are now including a lid, if there is one available. Most do have lids, some of the smaller tanks don't.
FOR SALE NOW:
- JUST ADDED: 2 Chameleon cages, 3 snake racks with heat tape and 2 tank stands. The racks have been SOLD. Check out photos:

I am sad to announce that Charm City Reptile Rescue will be closing, after almost 14 years of rescue (under the current and previous names). We will no longer accept any new animals.
The animals we currently have will be adopted or sent to other rescues over the next few weeks. I will personally keep whatever is leftover until suitable homes can be found.
As the animals are placed, the caging and other supplies will be sold to help pay the remaining bills. I have been paying for everything out of my pocket while the rescue has struggled over the past year.
We are looking for a donation of about a dozen rats to tide us over until the bigger snakes are placed. We have plenty of mice and insects at this time.
I also want to thank everyone who has supported the rescue over the years including volunteers, donors, our wonderful vet Dr. Sue Felter, Dr. Fred Cohen and the staff of Westview Animal Hospital, MD DNR, The National Aquarium in Baltimore, The Maryland Zoo, Carrie Murray Nature Center, Echoes of Nature, Katrina/Mid-Atlantic Turtle & Tortoise Society, my friends and family.

Thanks to my wonderful friends who are Chondro (green tree python) breeders/keepers. They held an auction last night at a party and raised money for the rescue.
Chondro people rock!
