3 year old Cuban/cayman rock iguana

She loves watching the city traffic from our second story window. She will follow cars and people going by to make sure they’re not coming too close.

Xenagama batilliifera sensu lato (Xenagama wilmsi). Bigger cousin to shield tail agamas and the only thing I've ever considered getting a tattoo of.

My middle-schooler finally got what he’s been wanting for over a year, after tons of research and preparing, a ~3yo who grew back his tail! What do you think of his digs?

I want to start keeping reptiles, and I want to start sa leopard gecko. May I know if what legal processes should I follow first before/after buying one? Also, are there any websites where I can buy lower price geckos(my budget isn't that high)?

Hi folks,

I'm moving abroad and can't take my reptile with me nor do I have any one to leave it with. Im trying to find somewhere to donate it to soon. Any idea where I can do this in NYC/NJ?

Bro said if I sit here long enough I'll get fed

I spend a few hours building a nice humid hide and buy big bouge ones for The big lady..... just for her favorite spots to be under the water bowl and the cork flat the isopods colony *WAS* liveing under XD. Shes sense evicted all the isopods and there now liveing amongst the Ponthos haha.

Today my girlfriend was helping me clean the enclosures of my two 8-year-old female leopard geckos. In an attempt to disinfect the bottoms of the enclosures, she sprayed Lysol disinfectant spray onto the glass and let it dry as the instructions say to do in order to kill bacteria. This didn't sit right with me, so I did some Googling and sure enough Lysol contains phenols, which are highly toxic to reptiles. Additionally, the enclosures were sprayed inside the reptile room so my other animals (other geckos, ball python, invertebrates) could have been exposed to the fumes, though nothing but the bottoms of the enclosures had contact with the liquid.

I rinsed out both tanks very thoroughly with water in the bathtub (phenols are luckily water soluble) and luckily none of the enclosure furnishings came into contact with the spray. Neither of us can detect any odor of the spray from the enclosures. I replaced the substrate and have moved the geckos back into their enclosures, as I have no suitable alternatives to house them on hand. They should not have come into contact with any surface that had been sprayed with the substrate in place, but I cannot rule out that some of it got onto the enclosure sides (though I did rinse the entirety of the insides with water, so hopefully there wouldn't be any phenol residues left over but I can't really guarantee this either).

I'm going to weigh each gecko daily and check up on them several times each day to assess their health. Right now they both seem perfectly normal, but I know that illness can take time to set in and that reptiles mask signs of illness. My question is, do I need to do anything else? I will contact my vet tomorrow when the office opens. From my initial web search it doesn't seem like this is necessarily a scenario to seek immediate emergency medical care, but I want to be proactive. I'm hoping to get a read on just how worried I should be or just how closely I should monitor them and for how long.

I will also be monitoring the other animals present in the room, though I am less worried about them as nothing in their environment came into contact with the spray. I found some other reports of people using Lysol in the same room as a reptile and each time the animal had been perfectly fine, though obviously not something you want to replicate. Finally, I intend to be out of town from Friday morning through Sunday evening, and I'd like to figure out if I'd be "in the clear" by then or if I should cancel my trip to monitor my animals. I appreciate any guidance you can give.

Hey all!

This is Janet, my green anole. She's an absolute sweetheart, super friendly and seems to enjoy my finger as a first course!

She recently lost her man, Kevin and since his passing, she's been gaining weight fast. I do put less mealworms in her feeding dish now she's alone without a big boy to eat most of it but is she looking on the curvaceous side?

Thank you! (Bonus pic of her with her late Husband, Kevin.)

I’ve only had my leopard gecko 5 days (he was 11 months old when I bought him) and he has stayed in his hot hide and I haven’t seen him leave. Do I wait a while until he is used to his new enclosure and probable less stressed out or do I do something else. I have taken the hot hide out do I can feed him but he just hides somewhere else and avoids the food I try to feed him with tongs.

Hi all! I have an empty 4x2x2 and I’d like something bigger for it. Lizards only, no snakes. Something with lots of personality that I can let free roam for a bit with supervision. So far I’m leaning towards a blue tongue but I’m open!

Edit: I do not like beardies and I already have a Schneider’s skink. Also this is a permanent enclosure seeing as I don’t have space for anything larger

I recently just got a bearded dragon and I want to learn how I can start to bond with him. I waited a week to not touch him because that’s what I researched but now I don’t really know what to do. I started putting my hand in his terrarium then after time got closer and closer to him. but right now I’m at a point where he’ll let me pet him with my finger. but I’ve tried picking him up and he kinda just freaks out. I’m making sure I pick him up from the front in order to not damage his ribs and I’m supporting his tail but he freaks out and wants to get out of my hands after 2-3 seconds. I really want to give him the perfect care and I feel bad that he’s always in his terrarium it’s a (75 gallon so it’s not small but I want him to be able to do different things) but I also don’t want to stress him out. Can you guys give me advice?

I’m a fairly new reptile keeper, less than 12 months.
QLD record book is one of the most clunky and confusing things to navigate.

I tried to register my python months ago and had nothing but issues. Parked it - then life got in the way.
I’ve now registered my python but stressing about fines or having my license taken away.

Has anyone else done something similar ?

Yes I know I fucked up.

I've been really thinking and decided its gonna be a great idea to have a small area of grass growing in my blueys enclosure but I have no idea how to do that are there not safe options? do I just go to the store and plant grass seeds? Also is there a reason no one ever does this?

Photographed these guys on vacation in Rhodes, I thought you might want to see them here (photos taken on two sepearte days in different locations, oldtown walls and walls surrounding Rhodes Acropolis).

Hey yall! I just got this pictus gecko on Saturday.
Anyone have experience with these guys? I can barely find info about them online, so any info is greatly appreciated!
Hes acclimating so last night I tried to feed him roaches and he wouldn’t take them. Just licked the calcium off and walked away lol. I’m going to try lugarti calcium since that’s what the breeders we’re giving him.
Breeder says they fed him crickets and meal worms. He’s a year old.

I dont rlly want my neighbours knowing i breed reptiles for personal reasons. I’d be keeping the crickets in my garage.

Just wanna know do their noise extend outside the walls?

Just reposting to a different sub reddit to get more insights

Since it’s starting to get colder in scotland I got my crested gecko a 50W heat bulb with a B2 pulse thermostat. My only concern is the mesh is too hot and I’m worried about her burning herself, she rarely goes onto the mesh but obviously I can’t monitor her during the night to make sure. I have the lamp positioned above the mesh where it’s quite empty so she doesn’t have much opportunity to climb onto the mesh immediately from her cork logs. Is there anything I can do? The dome I got has a clamp however I have no where to clamp it to

A few months ago I was looking into the casque headed iguana but decided not to because they needed to be in groups.

Then I saw these, had the same things I liked in the casque headed iguana, a casque, spikes and a classic lizard look.

But what about these guys?
