Sales List!
New Items & Sales:
Flake Soil, Tiny Bins, Pear & Black Locust Bark, Magnolia Pods and Stickers!
Alert: pricing and sizes on bulk substrate boxes have changed!
Shipping costs have changed recently, so I'm adjusting my bulk prices.
(Now you can get bulk pricing on less substrate. Win!)
I've upgraded each section of this list to its own page for the full descriptions, so look for the links if you need more than a quick price list before ordering.
Oak Flake Soil
Yes, it's finally a Sales List item, not just an intermittent availability item you need to join my discord server to catch before it's gone.
Single Fermented, Pure Oak, not a hardwood blend.
Fermented with Wheat Bran and Yeast.
(I can do special batches with additives and/or double fermented as a special order.)
Gallon bag - $20
Quart bag - $10
Bulk box: Four gallons for $80, shipped.
All Flake Soil is mostly dried before shipping to prevent growth of mold in closed bags during transit. Please do not store flake soil in closed bags long term.
2.3qt Gasket Bins with Stainless Steel Mesh Vents -
New, even smaller gasket bins!
Shown with my 4.7qt bin, these little guys are perfect for springtails, grain pests, tarantula slings, small snails, and other little creatures you need securely housed. Same quality and manufacturer as the 4.7qt.
These default to two vents in mite-proof 100 mesh stainless steel, but I can make the vents a custom size or mesh on request.
$10 per bin + shipping
Pear Bark Hides -
Thinner than Oak Bark, Pear Bark is great for smaller enclosures or for species that like more stacked up bark to hide between, such as microroaches, flat-bodied isopods, bark scorpions, and similar invertebrates.
Quart bag - $10
I have a few gallon bags with larger pieces - Please inquire about current stock
Black Locust Bark -
Back for a limited time, I have the beautiful heavy texture of Black Locust Bark.
Quart bag - $10
Available only until I run out of my current stock.
Magnolia Pods -
I've been looking for good quality Magnolia Pods for awhile, but the trees on my property weren't providing. Thanks to one of my lovely Field Collectors, I finally have the good stuff for you.
3 pods - $5
Bulk Magnolia Pods -
Like my Bulk Sweet Gum Pods, these aren't as pretty as the regular ones, but they still make great hides and botanicals if you aren't doing a display enclosure. Might contain pods that are really small, broken, or squished.
As many as I can stuff into a quart bag - $10
STICKERS!
Real, physical, not print on demand.
These are incredible quality, waterproof and flexible enough for curved surfaces like water bottles, and nicely sticky. Glossy, but not aggressively shiny.
Yes, these are all printed from my artwork. If they sell well, I'll do more designs in the future.
$1 each, or a full set for $10.
Free postage inside the US.

Leaves:
Click here for full listings with photos and more information about each type of leaf.
A lot of people selling leaves just rake them up, shove them in a bag, and you're lucky if they've even been frozen. I spend time hand-sorting to make sure you're only getting good leaves. Not sticks, rocks, pine needles, dead bugs, spiders, etc.
The leaves are then frozen for a minimum of three days at -45° in a deep freezer to sterilize them. My leaves are never heat sterilized, as heat sterilizing kills all of the existing fungi and beneficial soil bacteria, resulting in mold outbreaks from random spores in the air after rehydration in you enclosures. Soil bacteria is also important for the gut biome of detritivores, and vital to their ability to digest food.
All of my leaves are packaged in heavy duty 4 mil plastic resealable zipper bags, because I personally don't like having leaves spilling all over if I drop a bag. I don't sell anything I wouldn't use, so I also don't do packaging I wouldn't be happy to receive if I bought it from another merchant.
