How It All Started

In 2012, what began as a father and son's shared passion for reptiles evolved into Elite Serpents—a breeding operation built on trust, ethics, and an unwavering commitment to quality.

We didn't start with dozens of animals or grand ambitions. We started with curiosity, respect for these incredible creatures, and a desire to do things the right way. Over the years, that foundation has allowed us to grow into a name that South Florida reptile enthusiasts trust.

Our focus remains the same: producing healthy, well-adjusted Ball Pythons and Boa Constrictors with exceptional genetics and temperaments. We're not chasing trends or cutting corners—we're breeding animals we'd be proud to own ourselves.

The Family Difference

Being a father and son team means every decision we make is personal. These aren't just animals to us—they're part of our daily lives, and we take pride in giving each one the care and attention it deserves.

We keep our operation small and focused. This allows us to handle every snake regularly, monitor their health closely, and ensure they're feeding consistently before they go to new homes. You won't find hundreds of animals stacked in racks here—just quality over quantity, every time.

When you buy from Elite Serpents, you're not just getting a snake. You're getting our phone number, our support, and our commitment to helping you succeed as a keeper. We're here for the long haul.

Our Core Values

These principles guide everything we do at Elite Serpents

Ethical Breeding

Every pairing is carefully planned with the health and well-being of our animals as the top priority. We never push breeding schedules or compromise animal welfare for profit.

Quality Assurance

Every snake is well-started, feeding consistently on frozen/thawed prey, and comes with a health guarantee. We stand behind every animal we produce.

Transparency

We're honest about genetics, potential outcomes, and care requirements. No surprises, no hidden issues—just straightforward communication from day one.

Education First

We believe informed keepers make the best reptile owners. We're always happy to share knowledge, answer questions, and help you provide the best care possible.

Lifetime Support

Our relationship doesn't end at purchase. We're available for guidance and support throughout your snake's entire life. Your success is our success.

Superior Genetics

We invest in quality breeding stock and track genetic lines carefully to produce animals with exceptional color, pattern, and temperament.

What Makes Us Different

In a world of mass breeders and pet store chains, here's what sets Elite Serpents apart

1

Small-Batch, Hands-On Approach

We keep our breeding operation intentionally small. This allows us to handle every snake regularly, monitor health closely, and build trust with each animal. You'll receive a well-socialized, confident snake—not one that's been living in a rack with minimal interaction.

2

Direct Communication, No Middlemen

When you contact us, you're talking directly to the people who bred, hatched, and raised your snake. We can answer detailed questions about genetics, feeding history, behavior, and care because we've been there every step of the way. No sales reps, no guesswork—just firsthand knowledge.

3

Specialized Focus on Two Species

We don't spread ourselves thin trying to breed a dozen different species. We focus exclusively on Ball Pythons and Boa Constrictors—mastering their husbandry, understanding their genetics, and refining our breeding programs year after year. Specialization leads to better results.

4

We're in It for the Right Reasons

This isn't a get-rich-quick scheme or a side hustle. Reptile breeding is our passion, and we take pride in producing healthy, beautiful animals that bring joy to their new owners. Our reputation matters more than a quick sale, and we're building something we can be proud of long-term.
