To introduce myself, I am Jason Juchems. I have been keeping herps since I was 8 years old with my first pet turtle. The first herp I ever captive breed was White’s Tree Frogs at age 12. Leopard geckos and others were quickly added after that. Today I primarily keep Gekkonidae, Chelonia, and Amphibia. I have bred and sold more dart frogs than anything else. I keep other animals for classroom pets and other education use. My current Chelonian collection contains Pancakes, Greeks, Russians, Leopard, and Sulcatas along with some aquatic species.
I am a graduate of Bradley University majoring in Elementary Education, concentration in general science, with my middle school endorsement Science, Language Arts, and Social Studies. I have a master’s in School Administration from Saint Xavier University. In college I worked as an intern at Wildlife Prairie State Park in Peoria, IL. I have worked as a Keeper, Naturalist, and landscaping working on invasive plants. I was the 2005 and 2008 president of the Central Illinois Herpetological Society. In 2011 my book Poison Dart Frogs: A Guide to Care and Breeding was published. Anyway, that is me in a nut shell.
