Growing up we both have had reptiles as pets just about our whole lives. We started breeding bearded dragons and columbian boas in 1999 and found what we really love to do. Then when the local paper mill closed down and Casey was without a job he started breeding snakes full time. When not breeding or caring for reptiles I am a nurse at a local doctors office. We have 3 children, 2 daughters (and 2 son in law's) and a son, all grown and moved out, who live nearby and are a tremendous help with our business.
With the breeding and accumulation of so many reptiles we found we needed an economical and functional way of housing them. The cages Casey had built out of wood or melamine just weren't working for us.... so Casey started building his own plastic racks and cages. Friends and customers would come by and they were asking Casey to build them racks. He had such positive feedback on his racks that he started Snake Shacks. A friend suggested that there was a need for an economical, reliable incubator designed for reptiles. So after a lot of experimentation and feedback Casey designed the Natures Spirit incubator we presently offer. We also offer custom work in both the racks and the incubators.
