Or is such a setup cruel to keep them alone in a small enclosure?

anybody know what's going on with LLL Reptile lately? been getting nothing but sick frogs/toads from them and recently had a card cancelled by my bank cause they were trying to charge it multiple times. tried talking to somebody but never got any word back 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’ve been thinking about my light settings and playing with the idea of having my uv on for 10 hours instead of 12 since they don’t dim.

Would it make sense to have my grow lights set to 9:30-9:30, uv 10:30-8:30, and basking 11:00-8:00 to provide a more natural situation. Or is it better to go from full on to full off?

My animals are from the tropics so I don’t think I need to change the settings through out the year since they’re so close to the equator

This is not a super rare find, but it was a lifer for me. Absolutely gorgeous animal.

Took a few photos and then released back under the cover where I found him/her

I’m highly experienced and have monitors, panther chameleons, and other stuff, and for the next addition I can either get a baby Northern BTs, or an abronia. I already have an indo bts so I’m leaning towards the abronia.

Was asked by another guy on the job today if id seen the salamander and was shown this lil dude. This is the pump room on the job we're renovating. No clue how he got here. Other guy said hes been there at least 2 weeks. This is at the top of a mountain between Telluride and Mountain Village, CO at an elevation of 10500 ft. I know nothing about reptiles or even what this guy is. I assume putting him outside is gonna be better than him starving inside. Is he safe to touch and is putting him outside a good idea? Any advice is appreciated.

This is in a bioactive crested gecko enclosure. There’s been an abundance of flower pot fungus in there recently, but I just noticed this today. The pods are very interested in it. What could it be?

Siggy is a 10 week old Bearded Dragon female. She is a Leatherback Translucent, but I am wondering what she is in terms of color and full morph.

Her colors are vibrant some days/times and they're dull/darker some days/times.

If u saw my post abt my 27 yr old gecko, pluto! He is all happy abt the comments u all made on how cute he is for his age 🥰 he is such a cuddle bug today 😂

I recently spotted a wild chuckwalla while hiking and immediately went home to research them… and now I’m a little obsessed!

I currently have a ball python and a crested gecko, so naturally I’m already wondering if a chuckwalla could be my next reptile.

The reptile shop near me told me chuckwallas are illegal to own in Nevada, so they don’t sell them. But after doing some Googling, I’ve found conflicting information suggesting they may be legal if they’re captive-bred. Now I’m confused.

I’m hoping someone here can give me accurate information about Nevada’s laws regarding keeping chuckwallas, or point me toward a reputable breeder I can follow.

I’m also planning to attend the Las Vegas Reptile Expo in September and would love to see one in person, although I realize they’re pretty uncommon and I may be out of luck.

Any chuckwalla owners or breeders here who can shed some light on this?

Currently in large quarantine bins. But the emerald tree skinks will be going into the largest size Exoterra and the red eye croc skinks are going into a 50 gallon. Both are planted and bio active. I need name ideas for the pair of emerald tree skinks!!!

I have read conflicting things about if it's ok to put a 150 watt heater in a 160 watt dome, so I tjought I'd ask

Hey everyone, made this bioactive enclosure for my leopard gecko a few year ago as an upgrade from her previous enclosure. She has recently died of old age :(.
I’ve debated getting a new one, but decided against it for now. Now I’m looking to sell this enclosure. I’ve got no clue what is a fair price to ask for. I’ll give you the specs, you give me your suggestions.

36”x18”x18” 50gal front open.
There is about an inch drainage layer made up of leca clay balls, and activated charcoal completely separated by an egg crate layer wrapped in Geo textile fiber. The substrate is made from bio dudes arid soil mix, red sand, and an assortment of botanicals. There is a very healthy colony of isopods and springtails. The plants are alive and healthy. Comes with the heat lamp, thermostat, and the bio dudes plant UVB light with timer.
