🌈🧠 Hi, I’m Lavender—
the rainbow mind behind
Lavender Super Morphs

I’m an artist, herper, and certified permaculture designer with a lifelong love for all things scaly, strange, and beautiful. Whether I’m building naturalistic enclosures, painting snakes, or geeking out over genetics, everything I do is rooted in curiosity, care, and connection.

šŸ§‘šŸ»ā€šŸ’»šŸ§  Hi, I’m Morgan-
The Tech Mind Behind
Lavender Super Morphs

I’m an engineer, adventurer, and lifelong animal lover who brings the vision of Lavender Super Morphs to life through tech, tools, and hands-on work. From building custom habitats to wiring environmental controls, I’m the one making sure everything works behind the scenes.

🐢 Our Animal Story

šŸ’œ Her Story

Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember—cats, dogs, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, mice… even sugar gliders, lynxes, and hermit crabs. But reptiles? That was an instant connection.

It all started with Henrietta, a rescued Western Box Turtle I had as a kid. Since then, I’ve cared for sliders, pythons, geckos, tortoises, tree boas, and my absolute favorite: Plains Hognose Snakes. My home has always been a safe place for misunderstood species and wayward creatures.

Every animal I’ve kept has taught me something about patience, presence, and respect—and that philosophy guides everything we do here.

His StoryšŸ’™

I grew up with California desert tortoises, a dove, rabbits, and a long-loved aquarium. Reptiles came later, but quickly became part of my world. I’ve been a dedicated keeper since 2021—and during Lavender’s cancer treatment in 2022, I took on full care of our hognoses and feeder colonies, learning how to support and sustain them with care.

That experience deepened my connection to the animals and gave me a new sense of purpose. Helping Lavender rebuild from the ground up made me more committed than ever to this shared work—and to building something meaningful, together.

šŸ’œWhy Reptiles Matter to UsšŸ šŸ’™

In 2022, Lavender was diagnosed with breast cancer—and during that time, she reconnected deeply with her lifelong love of reptiles and animal behavior. That experience changed everything, setting us on a new path we’ve followed ever since.

She immersed herself in learning, joining @reptelligence to study behavior and enrichment, and proudly completed the Master Herpetologist Program I through The Amphibian Foundation.

This journey has been one of growth, healing, and rediscovery. It’s only deepened her passion for connecting others with these incredible animals in thoughtful, ethical ways.

Morgan is the one behind the tech—designing the systems that bring our habitats to life. From electronics and lighting to environmental controls and automation, if it needs wiring, building, or problem-solving, he’s on it. He also co-designs our FOHMs (Front Opening Habitat Modules) and develops tools that make reptile keeping more intuitive for others.

Together, we’re building something lasting. Lavender brings the vision; Morgan brings the hands that make it work. From thoughtful keeping to hardware and heart, this is a shared dream—and we’re proud to be growing it side by side.

🌿 Life Outside the Rack

When we’re not caring for animals or tweaking enclosures, we’re probably:

✨ Dancing our hearts out at EDM shows

✨ Hiking through forests, fields, and anywhere green

✨ Stargazing, eclipse chasing, and cosmic adventuring

✨ Traveling for inspiration, connection, and fresh perspectives

✨ Tending our permaculture garden and learning from the land

✨ Journaling, sketching, and dreaming up new ideas

✨ Because our world doesn’t stop at the reptile room—it’s all connected. ✨

Lavender Super Morphs is where all of this comes together—science, nature, creativity, connection and technology.

Whether you’re brand new to reptiles or deep into the exotics hobby, We're glad you’re here. šŸ’œšŸ’™
