Our hearts are heavy for our friends at Pro Exotics today. A fire broke out early this morning at their Colorado facility. It is currently still burning, and according to their Facebook page, they do not expect any of their snakes to survive. We will keep you updated on this and try to reach Chad or Robyn today to find out what happened.

We at kingsnake.com will keep Chad, Robyn and their entire staff and families in our thoughts.

UPDATE:
The local press Fox31 Denver is on the scene and interviewed Chad Brown and Robyn Marklund. From the their site:

"This is decades of work to produce the animals that we've been producing," Brown says. "This is a huge loss for our business.

Pro Exotics has been in business for 20 years.

"These are very special animals," Brown says. "There's a number of unique animals that were the only ones of their type on the planet."

"With the heat inside I can't imagine those animals surviving," he says. "They're very tough animals but to survive that type of heat is very unlikely."

"I could see the flames inside the facility, and certainly the smoke was really heavy" says Brown's partner, Robyn Markland.

"This is going to be our life-changing moment, we'll figure things out and we'll move forward," he say
