Our Story
Hey there, amphibian lovers! My name is Scarlett Nightshade, and I am a passionate herpetoculturist, academic author, artist and educator. My husband Abel and I work with a variety of animals, from snakes, lizards and frogs to chickens, crabs and dogs! We dedicate much of our time to education and conservation under our business Creatures of Nightshade, where we work with some of the most legendary snake species in the world.
My Amphibian Crate was created to provide a one-of-a-kind, immersive learning experience centered around amphibians. After the growing popularity of its parent company, My Snake Crate, we decided to embark on a journey in educating fellow animal lovers through a series of crates that will focus on every group of animals in the animal kingdom.
Through educational activities and awesome goodies, every box is packed with not only knowledge, but fun! Plus, every item inside is written, designed and made by hand right here in our home.
Each Amphibian of the Month featured in My Amphibian Crate is proudly selected by our little family of herp lovers, with each item offering a special experience to bond through the incredible world of amphibians. We hope you enjoy learning about your amphibious companions, and most importantly, have fun!
