ABOUT us
Welcome To
COLD CITY EXOTICS.
Hi folks of Guys !
My name is Dominic Kane, and I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share a little bit about my background and what I do.
I got my start in the reptile world at just 14 years old, working for free at New England Reptile (NERD) under Kevin McCurley. I stayed there until I was about 22, then made the move to Florida to work at a zoo. I didn’t have a job lined up—I just knew the skills I had developed would speak for themselves.
Eventually, I moved back home to Maine. Over time, I realized that no job made me as happy as working with reptiles. That passion led me to start doing:
K–12 school shows
Birthday parties
Library events
Daycares
And more!
At this point in my life, I’m proud to say I’m always available to take calls or questions from anyone—whether it’s about reptile care, husbandry, or general advice. There’s no such thing as a bad question!
About three years ago, I returned to work at NERD, but told Kevin I wanted to start something of my own. That’s when I launched ColdCityExotics.com.
As with any industry, some people aren’t always supportive of the “new kid on the block.” But no matter what, I’ve stayed focused and put 100+ hours a week into this business because I love what I do.
