After Adopting
Thank you for adopting from Crimson Exotics Reptile Rescue! Thanks to you, we were able to find an amazing home for an animal in need. We appreciate that! On this page, you'll find important information that must be read shortly after receiving your new animal and helpful information for later.
Please read “Important Post-Adoption Information” as soon as possible once your new animal is in its enclosure. The rest of the information on this page can be read at your convenience.

Important Post-Adoption Information
If you haven't already, let us know the animal has arrived! Text (785) 380-8991.
In the last 24 hours, your new animal has traveled a long way—possibly across the country! It's normal for them to seem stressed for the next few days. We recommend waiting at least seven days before handling them to allow them to settle in.
Our team chooses to foster because we love helping reptiles and amphibians. Help protect our privacy by ensuring that any photos or videos you share don't contain contact info or addresses.

Other Information
We would love to see updates about the animal you adopted! Please send us photos whenever you'd like. If you post them on social media, tag us, too. Click here to view all of our social media pages.
Did your animal come in a pre-used box? To reduce costs and our environmental impact, sometimes, we reuse shipping boxes. Before doing so, we thoroughly inspect them to ensure they're in perfect shape.
Thank you again for choosing to adopt from Crimson Exotics! We greatly appreciate your support, which allows us to help more reptiles and amphibians in need.
"Why is this information online instead of printed?" — We used to print a long welcome letter for every animal adopted from Crimson Exotics, which contained all of this information. Now, our welcome letter is brief, with a link to this more in-depth page. This allows our team to share more information while cutting our paper usage in half! It also simplifies the shipment preparation process, allowing us to spend more time helping animals instead of preparing paperwork.
