001 / Custom work

When the template
isn't the answer,
I build the thing.

Some programs need software that does not exist yet. Maybe your registry needs multi-tenant pedigree generation. Maybe your sales site needs to handle deposits, payment plans, and transport coordination in one flow. Maybe your records app needs to track color genetics across six clutches and six generations.

Templates cannot do any of that. So I build it.

Custom work is the high-ticket side of the studio. I take on a handful of builds per quarter, work directly with the breeder running the program, and deliver a working product on a clear timeline. No discovery agencies, no junior engineers, no scope mystery. You talk to me, I write the code, you ship. Pricing sits next to every offer below. If your project does not map cleanly to one, the diagnostic call gets you a written plan whether you hire me afterward or not.

002 / Featured builds

The three things I get hired
to build most often.

Websites, records apps, and sales platforms. Each one priced inline, scoped on the call, and delivered on a fixed quote. Species-specific website variants linked from the websites card.

01from $2,000

Custom breeder websites

A site that ranks, converts deposits, and matches the way you actually present your animals. Built for the species and the buyer, not assembled from a generic page builder.

  • Litter, animal, and pedigree pages with photo libraries
  • Waitlist intake and deposit flow built into the site
  • SEO setup and Google indexing on day one
  • Six weeks of free changes after launch

02from $3,500

Breeding records & genetics apps

Custom records tooling shaped around your species and your workflow. COI, pedigree generation, color genetics, weight curves, and the reports that actually answer the questions a buyer asks.

  • Pedigree and COI engine tuned for your species
  • Weight, vet visit, and health testing logs that talk to each other
  • Buyer-facing animal pages auto-generated from your data
  • Export and backup tools so the data stays portable

03from $5,000

Sales & e-commerce platforms

Reservations, deposits, payment plans, and transport coordination running through one sales pipeline you actually own. Replaces three services with one workflow.

  • Deposit and payment plan flows that handle real-world breeder pricing
  • Waitlist pipeline with pick-order rules and conditional approvals
  • Transport coordination forms wired into your inbox
  • Stripe, PayPal, or ACH-direct payment options

003 / Specialized programs

For clubs, registries,
and ongoing search work.

Three programs that sit outside the website-records-sales trio. If you run a breed club, manage a species registry, or need SEO that maps to inquiries, these are where to start.

02from $5,000

Breed club software

Member portals, event calendars, public directories, and the pedigree integration most clubs need but cannot find as an off-the-shelf product.

03from $499 / month

SEO program

Ongoing search work for breeder programs. Content strategy, technical fixes, and reporting that maps to inquiries, not vanity metrics.

$499

Site SEO sweep

A full audit of your existing site. You will see what is costing you inquiries, what to fix this week, and what to plan for next quarter.

005 / Process

How working together
actually goes.

Five steps. The same five regardless of whether the build is a $2,000 website or a $25,000 registry platform. Predictable on purpose.

01 · Inquiry

You send a note

Describe the problem. I read it the same day.

02 · Diagnostic

We talk it through

30 to 90 minutes. Free for builds over $2,000.

03 · Quote

Fixed proposal

Written quote in three business days. No estimate ranges.

04 · Build

I write the code

4 to 16 weeks. Weekly updates. You see the work as it happens.

05 · Launch

Full handoff

Documentation, training, and 30 days of free changes after launch.

006 / Proof

A recent build,
in summary.

The full case study lives at /case-studies/gold-standard-gecko-club. Short version below.

Gold Standard Gecko Club

GSGC needed a real registry, member portal, and event system for the 2026 NRBE in Daytona Beach. Instead of replacing their existing site, the operational layer landed behind it at gsgc.breedledger.co, deployed in GSGC's gold-and-black brand identity. Members create an account, register their geckos, and enter the competition in a three-step flow.

The first member perk shipped alongside the launch: a custom FedEx integration where dues-paying members pull live shipping quotes, buy labels, and print them straight from their account page. Built from scratch, not a plugin.
