Hello and welcome to Riverside Reptile Breeders, we have been a registered business since 1991 and specialized in Ball Python and Boa Constrictor morphs. We were one of the first to produce the Albino Pied Ball Pythons in 2008 and have focused on this breeding project for many years. We have now started to focus exclusively on the Sterling Boas and this year will be amazing as we will be producing Normal Sterlings, Hypo Sterlings, Anery Sterlings, Moonglow Sterlings, Ghost Sterlings, Sunglow Sterlings, Snow Sterlings and Albino Sterlings.
WHY Our Prices are so LOW!!!
We have been breeding ball pythons and Boa Constrictors since 1992. Why is our prices so low?? we have no overhead. I retired as a Counterintelligence Special Agent from the federal government in 2021 after 32 years of service. I also decided to reduce the amount of animals down to about 10 percent so I can enjoy some part of a retirement. So since we are a tiny company now I can sell my stock at a much lower price so all can afford them. I recently had my close friend and mentor Mr. Pete Kahl who really needs no introduction over to my home and spent a day with him. He helped sex all the babies we are currently offering. He also gave me permission to use him as a reference. SO if you have any doubt who I am or what I am selling you can try to reach him and ask if we are legit. For those who don't know him just Google his name. He is the founder of this trade and without him this hobby would not have taken off like it did. We only plan to breed reptiles for another few seasons before closing up shop for good. It has been a great ride and a special thanks to Pete for getting us here. Thank you to all my repeating customers.

Potential Enclosure Issue!!!!!!!!
Hello everyone, for all of you who had purchased one of the 4 foot slide door models I have a quick fix for you. I received a call from a buyer who said his lower track came loose. I selected a very reliable glue and done a strength test using three of this manufactures glue. The one I used for these enclosures worked best and is very strong. The top track is glued and screwed and the bottom is glued and most of them have been sealed in the back for moisture. I did get busy building them and may have skipped that process. Anyway I did not screw the track down so the Plexi glass would slide easier. What I should have done as a precaution was to purchase flat head screws for the track. So please keep an eye on your lower track and if you get a chance please hit up your hardware store and pick up a few of these 1/2 screws and put one on each side and middle of the track for extra security. Be sure to pre drill the hole and not go all the way through the enclosure. The flat head screw should be snug enough so the glass runs smoothly when opening and closing. If the glass hits the screw head then you may need to take the plexi out and round the bottom edges some. Sorry for any problems this may have caused. I will be adding these screws on future enclosures. As of now I sold about 25 of these slide door enclosures and received the one complaint. IMPORTANT!!!!!!!!for all of you that are housing poisonous reptiles in these four footers it is very important for you to add the screws for security.
On a side note I have used this glue on many of the 4 footers I use for my animals and have had no issues. Many of the animals are over 6 feet and never broke through. My enclosure are older Boamaster enclosure identical to the ones I sell and had 3M tape for the track and many of the tracks the tape lifted off on one end so I replaced the tape with gorilla glue.

These are the ones I will be using for future 4 foot sliders. They are (#6 x 1/2") screws. You can visit a hardware store with these dimensions to help you select the screws.

Shipping Policy Please Read:

If for some unfortunate reason you receive the snake or other reptile a DOA it is your responsibility to contact us immediately. Buyer will be asked to provide us with photographic proof the animal is dead. At this time we only warranty animals that are shipped to a FedEx Hub. During these current Covid Conditions any animal shipped to a residence or business will not be covered under any warranty. Buyer assumes all risk when shipped to a residence. We cannot be held accountable for any package that shows delivered through FedEx through their tracking system and not picked up or there when you go to retrieve it. We can't be held accountable for any loss or stolen packages that clearly show a delivered status through FedEx. We can't be held accountable for any package delivered late through FedEx regardless of the delivery location. Please take advantage of the insurance.

We rather not ship on temperatures higher or lower they what we listed.
Insurance For your Animal!! READ!!!!!!!!!!!!
We highly encourage you to take advantage of insurance for your snake. So far for the 2023 season FedEx has delivered two of my shipments one day late. This had no effect on the animal but when you pay for Priority Overnight you want that service. FedEx does not warrantee any live deliveries but the company we use Ship Your Reptiles/All Pro Shipping does offer insurance. It is not that expensive and brings some peace of mind. We only guarantee live arrival to a FedEx hub and when the animal arrives on time through their tracking system. We can't warrantee live arrival if the animal is late. We have no control of their shipping regimen after we drop the animal off. Before we process an order we need you to let us know in an email that you understand these terms. We need an email and phone number from you anyway so we can process the label. If you do want to take advantage of the insurance we would have to find out the amount from their site. As I recall it was a few dollars per $100 of the purchase. We are now only shipping out TUESDAY for WEDNESDAY delivery so people can take advantage on the insurance. This BLUE link below explains their warrantee process.

Guaranteed Sexed Animals:
All animals will be properly sexed. Buyer must verify animal(s) to be properly sexed within 48 hours of delivery. After 48 hours all sales are final as it’s the buyer’s responsibility to confirm the sex of the animal they have purchased. In the event you receive an animal that has been incorrectly sexed we will be glad to provide a shipping label to return the animal. Upon arriving alive and healthy back at our facility and being proven incorrectly sexed a replacement animal will be sent at our cost. If an acceptable replacement is not available then a full refund shall be issued.
PAYMENT PLANS
We will gladly work out short term payment plans with you if you cannot pay in full right now.
Payment plans require a 25% non-refundable deposit and all animals on a payment plan must be paid in full by 15 November. We typically will not ship after that day due to the change in temperatures. This of course is not set in stone and as long as temps are above 55 degrees we can still ship.
Animals purchased this way will be shipped once the balance has been paid in full.
Failure to fulfill the predetermined payment schedule decided will result in the loss of the sale and the 25% deposit.
