We take in reptiles that can no longer be kept!

Even though we are not a rescue, we accept reptiles that cannot be cared for any longer. We will accept relinquished reptiles for any reason. All reptiles that are surrendered have the opportunity to be used in our educational programs.

Reptile Cove LLC will do everything to ensure that all reptiles that have come in our care, will receive the best care for the rest of their lives. Below you will find the steps to the relinquishing process as well as the forms.
