Spector is a normal ball python that looks like he may have something else in him as well. He is full grown and is over four feet long, although he is tough to get an exact measurement of his length on. He is handled regularly though is often in his hide during the day when in his enclosure. He weighs a little over 3 lbs (1400 grams) and is a good eater, eating a medium frozen/thawed rat about once every 10 days to two weeks. He likes to explore when let out to roam, though prefers to explore under pillows or behind things than being out in the open.
Rasor is a ball python, possibly male, about 3-4 years of age, who is healthy and held on a regular basis. He came to us with a very stuck shed and may need assistance (baths with Zilla shed ease) with future sheds. He is eating one frozen/thawed weaned rat once weekly. He is a normal with a yellow along his sides. He weighs about 1 ½ lbs (667 grams) and is about 40 inches long. He can move pretty fast for a ball python (which are pretty slow snakes) and may get scared of sudden attempts to hold him or if approached from above. Petting him a bit first seems to help, then scooping him up.
This very fine pastel Ball Python goes by the name Fiddler. He is a wonderful fellow who is handled on a regular basis and enjoys some exploring time outside his enclosure. He is about 10 years old, weighs about 3.44 lbs (1559 grams) and eats a frozen thawed medium rat every two to three weeks, depending on his shed cycle. He sheds well when his enclosure is about 60% humidity. He is about four feet plus long and his forever enclosure should be 4’ x 2’ x 18” in height or larger. He is not much of a climber so 18” in height for the enclosure should be fine. He is on the slower side when out and about (like many ball pythons are), exploring carefully. A real sweetie. Would make a great pet for a family looking for a full grown snake that is people and holding friendly. He was in shed when we took these photos. His colors are more pronounced after he sheds.
Penelope is a possibly female approximately 10 year old normal pattern ball python. She is a sweetie who is shy and mellow. She is handled on a regular basis and in good health. She is about four feet long and weighs a little over 3 lbs (1399 g). She eats a medium frozen/thaw rat once every ten days to two weeks. While we take her out to explore she never goes too far and moves slowly. She would make a great pet for anyone who likes to just hang out with a snake on a couch. She seems to enjoy being petted and held, and sitting on a warm lap. Not for breeding.
They are not accustomed to handling and is eating all sorts of bugs and ready for their new home.

I have two Atlantic mudskippers (Periophthalmus barbarus) in need of good homes. They do not have to be adopted together, as they will fight if not housed separately. These are true semi aquatic animals and obligatorily brackish, so they can not be kept in a regular aquarium.
Once these guys settle in they have a ton of personality! And are especially spunky during feeding time. Currently eating a variety of frozen fish foods, with occasional live treats.
Set ups not included BUT I can include a small sponge filter pre-cycled with brackish beneficial bacteria with each skipper.
Located in Cohoes NY

I’m looking to rehome my female leopard gecko Aneela. I’ve had her since 2021. Due to personal reasons I’m unable to give her the attention she deserves. She’s tong fed and very friendly once she gets to know you. Easy to handle and very food motivated. I feed her mostly Dubias but she’ll eat almost any bug you offer to her. I purchased her from brian barczyk at BHB reptiles.

Norbert is about 2 years old and I am not positive of gender. A red iguana. Norbert is usually very docile. A very good eater eating many dark leafy greens, fresh herbs, veggies and fresh fruits. Norbert has also always been given supplements and is very healthy and active. We do not wish to rehome Norbert, however we must as we are moving to a much smaller space.
Thank you so much.

PYRO: 9 years old, male, Poughkeepsie
Pyro is a very handsome 9 year old florida/brooks kingsnake who due to extenuating circumstances, we believe could be happier and have a greater qualify of life in a more reptile-centric home. Pyro was rescued from a breeder so he’s very skiddish when it comes to handling, but with consistent work he improves tremendously. He loves his free roaming time to explore, however just needs supervision because he can be easily spooked and sneak his way somewhere that is difficult to retrieve him from. He does not do well with live feed, and does best with frozen, medium sized rats. Pyro is a very special boy who deserves proper care and attention after all he’s been through.

As an education-based company, we do purchase reptiles. Sometimes these reptiles do not work out for our educational presentations and this can be for a variety of reasons. While they may not work out for us as animal ambassadors that does not mean they make bad pets, in this section below you will find reptiles that are available for purchase. Please be aware that these animals were not purchased with the rescues funds nor are they to be considered adoptions or rescues.
In foster care, please send us an email for details

Please be aware, this ball python does have a kink, as clearly shown in the image.
This beauty eats and poops just fine. I would love to find this beauty a loving forever home. If you are interested in this one specifically, shoot me an email with the subject "Kink Ball Python" in the subject line.
This one is extremely on edge. While not ready to leave today this little one is is actually healthy and his personality is barring him from a forever home (He likes to bite, a lot) Check back however, I know its only a matter of time before this beauty will calm down.

FROST: 4 years old, female, Poughkeepsie
Frost is a very sweet and chill girl who due to extenuating circumstances we believe could be happier and have a greater quality of life in a more reptile-centric home. She’s happy to spend hours sitting on your lap, laying with you in bed, or exploring your home. We call her “sassy eyes” because of her crazy side-eye when she’s taken to the vet or around another animal and wants all the attention. She prefers red leaf lettuce and spring mix to all other greens and veggies. She’s a very special girl who brings so much joy to your life.

This is the first adoption offered from a large group that came in. It is healthy and eating anything you put in front of it. It will think anything is food until you are holding it. Once in hand this lizard calms down and is pleasurable to work with.

New world terrestrial. A large spider with some reaching 8"+. These guys are also pretty hardy. They tend to be skittish & kick a lot of hair, so not one I recommend for handling. However, they are beautiful & watching them eat is always a blast! They have a crazy feeding response & they eat like pigs!!!
New world terrestrial. Depending on who you ask, they are considered somewhere between the third largest to fifth largest tarantulas in world, sometimes reaching 10"+. They are extremely hardy & I find them to be pretty docile. With that being said, they have an explosive feeding response!
This little guy was found on the doorstep of Creatures Comforts Animal Hospital in Poughkeepsie NY. Checked out and then turned over to HVR he has successfully fed 3 times and is ready to find his loving forever home.

"We adopted our adorable Bearded Dragon Rocco from Hudson Valley Reptile Rescue. He is amazing in so many ways. They were highly informative and gave us all we needed to ensure our guy was going to be cared for properly. I would recommend adopting from Hudson Valley Reptile Rescue over purchasing from a pet shop 100% over."
