We only sell what we can make or re-invent cheaper than those store items. 

Example #1

I have never had to buy a heat light because I have always made my own. It's not hard. You just prep a regular light and paint with high temp paint. and let the paint cure. I have made 100's, A reptile heat bulb is just that, a heat source. Yes black heat bulb do throw off a small amount of UVA, but if your reptile requires UV light it is UVB. The red and black lights are a heat source  (I will post a long explanation about the hype on lights.). 

Most people just don't want to go through the hassle to do this to a single, or even a couple bulbs to save a few bucks. So I buy NEW incandescent bulbs and paint them with the process I have developed over the years. First a prep stage, then paint and heat to bake and cure the paint. Then I simply place a Herp Help sticker on the package showing that it is one of my re-invented bulbs.

Example #2 This one is real simple. I buy aspen in bulk 100+ bales at a time and repackage at convenient sizes. And my aspen is shredded NOT chipped. Highly preferred within the reptile community.

I have also sold my own mixes of shredded bark and different woods. My chipper is down at the moment but it should be up and running this summer. 

Most reptile wood bedding is a simple by-product of the lumber industry. They have learned they can make more money with a nice package and a name brand, It's simply wood chips of some sort. Why pay so much?
.

Example #3 Reptile Carpets. I really love this idea for a lot of reptiles. But they are charging an arm and a leg for a piece of cheap indoor outdoor carpet. The package may cost as much as the carpet inside you buy. And you're paying for that fancy package you toss in the trash. Again I simply buy carpet and cut to size. Oh yea, my carpets are far superior in quality. And still cheaper because I don't sell it in a fancy box.
