    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Sold a gecko to Eric a few months ago. He was great with communication before and after, and has even kept me posted when he decided to put her up for sale, which was above and beyond expectations. Would definitely sell to him again.
 
I handle online sales for Vicki of Big Fat Geckos (bigfatgeckolady here on Fauna), and Eric has been a great customer of hers. Great communication, pays on time, and even willing to go above and beyond when mishaps occur- such as when a shipping label got mixed up and he ended up with a surprise gecko! He cared for this gecko wonderfully for almost a week while we waited for good shipping conditions to come back around, and then shipped the gecko to its rightful owner.

Just a super nice guy. :)
 
Eric purchased a few geckos from us a few months ago without any problems. Communication was great, very fast payment, and updates on how the animals are doing for him as well.
 
Eric accidentally got my leachie in a shipping label mishap and was wonderful to deal with. He kept me updated, reassured me daily that the gecko was doing well, and sent him on to me after the gecko had a little break from the shipping stress. His communication was wonderful and it was very reassuring to know the mistake ended up in the hands of an honest, trustworthy person, as it could have gone badly wrong very easily!
 
I purchased a male yellow, reverse pin stripe crested from Eric on 6/18. Everything went through without a hitch and the gecko is awesome! He provided me with all the information pertaining to the gecko. We are very happy with the transaction and without hesitation do business with Eric again in the future.
 
I purchased an unsexed harley crested from Eric on 7/3. First, I must express that he went above and beyond as far as the call of a salesman is concerned. Upon discovering that we lived on the same island, he offered to meet me halfway between our locations, thus removing the cost of shipping. We kept very much in touch over the weeks leading up to the rendezvous, and was very understanding when I explained I might be late due to a car accident that happened the day of. All in all, he's a wonderful person, and should the chance arise, I'd love to do business with Eric again in the future.
 
I purchased a red female crested from Eric. Everything went great and the gecko is Gorgeous! Eric stayed in constant communication with me every step of the way and answered all of my questions. I would definitely buy from him again.
 
Eric Kikel GOOD GUY!

Couldn't be more pleased with Eric's service or the 3 geckos I received from him! Great communication, answered all the questions, provided extra photos including parent pics, I'm extremely happy with the whole transaction and would recommend him to anyone! Thanks Eric!
 
Just received 2 beautiful geckos from Eric and couldn't be happier. Really great communication, answered all of my questions and even held the geckos a few weeks for me while I was preparing to move. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any friend looking for healthy, high quality crested geckos and definitely look forward to doing business with him again in the future! :)
 
I got my first crested today from Eric and I have to say it was a pleasure doing business with him. From the first e-mail Eric was professional, helpful and honest. ( the gecko looks better in person then the pictures i'm very happy ). We live not to far from each other, he was nice enough to deliver him/her to my doorstep. I can't wait to do business with Eric again.
 
I just received my crested gecko from Eric-she's spectacular and I'm so pleased! I had been interested in her few months, and Eric patiently answered all my questions and took time to take extra pics (without me even asking!) to help me make my decision. Eric is very professional and friendly. I am very satisfied and will definitely keep my eye out for future geckos from this fantastic breeder!
 
Great Seller!

Purchased 2 crested geckos from eric about a month ago. He was super friendly and reliable. Both geckos are doing well and I couldn't be happier. Pleasure doing business with him.
 
:thumbsup: Eric is an awesome customer. Great communication and handled the shipment with ease. As a hobbyist breeder turned business we appreciate the updates and pictures of the geckos we sold him. I would buy/sell geckos through Eric in a heart beat. Great guy!
 
Just received two gorgeous crested geckos in the best of health from Eric Kikel. He has been exceptional in his communication and I am very satisfied with the overall experience. He even offered me a crested of his that I had been eyeing for a while. I would highly recommend Eric, and look forward to doing business again. :)

So happy :)

I bout two awesome crested geckos from Eric. He was great. He answered all my question and was very nice and genuine. Great communication, took me step by step through the ordering and shipping process and made sure the geckos arrived to me. He's a awesome dude, I would definitely purchase more geckos from him in the future. :)
 
I just bought a cute little pinstripe crested gecko from Eric. He was extremely accommodating and patient. Great communication and answered all my questions. We both live in the same area and met at a halfway point. I couldn't make up my mind as I pretty much loved all his animals. But he brought all the geckos I was interested in to our meet up to help me make a decision.

Not only was it a pleasure doing business with him, but he is a really cool guy as well. My boyfriend and I had a great time chatting with him and his fiance. (Thanks you two!)

Without a doubt, I will be purchasing from him again in the future. :)
 
Great Guy!

I purchased two cresties from Eric back in December and due to crazy Indiana weather Eric was not able to ship until yesterday. But the whole time Eric always kept me updated and answered any questions I had. He went above and beyond customer service, you could not ask for anymore. The cresties arrived today and were packaged perfectly. Both cresties looked amazing and are in perfect health.

All around I give the transaction an A+++. Eric made everything easy with it especially the waiting period until it was safe to ship.

Will definitely do business with again.
