Unhappy Condolences to Pro-Exotics from GU

Sadly, Pro-Exotics has lost their facility (and 3,000+ snakes) to a fire. Thankfully no human lives were lost. We'd like to wish Chad and everyone else at Pro-Exotics the best of luck in rebuilding. A facebook page has been set up for sending good wishes and support: GetBehindProExotics | Facebook

The cause has not yet been determined. But keep things like this in mind when deciding whether or not to put a thermostat on that heating device or when plugging in 10 UTH's into a single power stripe. Heat and electricity are nothing to take for granted. Always think safety first.

What a tragedy!

Best wishes to Pro-Exotics, to Robyn, and to Chad in finding the $$$ and strength to rebuild this facility and their very lives.

Extremely sad to hear about this, but good to know that he is able to rebuild.
