MYSTIC REPTILES LLC
WALDO, FLORIDA

Hi, I'm Chris Cannarozzi, President of Mystic Reptiles, LLC. I have been a reptile enthusiast since 1983, and in 2006 turned my hobby into this business. While attending the University of Florida (B.S. entomology), I was fortunate enough to take a grad level Herpetology course taught by Dr. Wayne King and Dr. Max Nickerson. That class was instrumental in broadening my scope of understanding for all reptiles. During that time, I also worked under Eugene and Cindy Bessette at Ophiological Services. For 3 years there, I gained valuable experience working with a variety of different species- but mainly Burmese pythons. My operation is rooted in Genes' principles and techniques. I am also fortunate to have befriended Bob Guerriere (Ancient Reproductions). Bob knows snake farming, and has generously imparted his knowledge over the years. Our 1,200 sq ft facility is located in the small town of Waldo, Florida just outside of Gainesville. We have a pecan orchard, fruit trees, and lots of grass to mow! And I can't imagine doing it any other way. We maintain several species of constrictors, but Reticulated pythons and Carpet pythons are our passion. I enjoy the challenge of keeping these awesome animals in captivity. Snake breeding is hard work! The satisfaction lies in growing a healthy collection which will not only thrive due to your efforts, but reproduce as well. Over the past 7 years, our business has grown to a comfortable level. We have enough animals to be constantly busy. But no so many as to be neglectful. Since 2006, I believe we've accomplished our goals of treating our customers right, and supplying snakes in a professional way. In the future, we plan to branch out of the southeast a bit, and attend more expos around the country. In the distant future, we look to possibly obtain a CITIES permit, and enter into the global market. Welcome to the internet home of Mystic Reptiles, LLC! We are a private breeder specializing in the captive propagation of Reticulated pythons and other python species. With that concept in mind, our vision is.... To be large enough to provide a variety of morphs/animals available, yet small enough to maintain high quality control and personalized customer service. Mystic Reptiles will represent all snakes in our collection honestly. We strive to create a positive experience with every customer... one which leaves a lasting impression. Be assured that customer service and satisfaction is our priority. I've always found it gratifying to meet or talk with people in this hobby/business. So please don't hesitate to call or write. Look for future updates, news, and expo information to be posted on this home page, or our Facebook page.
