FROm THe HATCh

Right out of the hatch I was born into nature.

An active "herpetologist" in training before I could pronounce the word.
Like most of us, our earliest memories are circling ponds with a dip net and carrier tank in hand, or wandering the woods flipping logs. Carefully observing and occasionally taking a friend back home for further study before releasing. 

My fascination in the secretive nature of cold blooded friends and how to replicate their natural habitat and behavior only grew from a passion to an obsession.
