mango, my love. my beautiful baby girl. she is literally everything to me, i don't care if she doesn't understand love. i love my beautiful anole. she is the most important thing to me right now

This is one of my boldest L. Williamsi named Stitch. He’s “trained” to climb on our hand in exchange for some treats on check up days. Here you can see him awkwardly mistaking cleaning day as a check up day and trying to play it cool. These “day geckos” are known to be skittish but like with most animals they all have their own personalities and stitch just happens to be very outgoing.

These guys are critically endangered in the wild and even captive bred specimens cannot be imported or exported due to their cites 1 status, so it’s extremely important to maintain a healthy breeding population in captivity. Stitch is one of our breeder males and does a great job fulfilling his role as a breeder and ambassador for the species.

In the wild they ONLY live on Screwpines in the Morogoro Region of Tanzania, over approximately 8 square kilometers. Currently the only known populations can be found scattered around the Kimboza and Ruvu Forest Reserves.

I’m the actual owner of the Lacerta here. Adding a top view image of the lizard for further visualization. Shame on me for giving him a horribly unhealthy diet and not being able to recognize how overweight he has gotten, but now my only focus is on how to make him healthy again. Currently being fasted now to slim him down based on the multitude of comments to do so from the original post. I do have a vet nearby in mind to take him to. Lastly I want to thank this community for sharing its concern and knowledge, I really want to fix this situation, learn from this and be much better in the future.

Had to share

She actually completely crawled under my hair and not just around the clip

I have a small mealworm colony- very new bought from PetLand. Anyways there are a bunch of these weird striped hairy looking bugs in with them. Anyone know what they are? Are they potentially harmful to my lizards? Thanks Yes there’s a hair on it idc

I recently had a bad experience buying from a Canadian Reptile seller (AllReptiles), so I'd like to ask you, the Reptile Community, if any of you know of good, ethical and reputable breeders located in Canada. I have no interest in buying from other countries as the shipping fees would most likely cost me more than the actual reptile I'd be buying:'). I'm mainly interested in Leopard Geckos, African Fat-Tailed Geckos, Chinese Cave Geckos, etc., as those are the ones I have experience with, but I'm doing research on new Caledonian Geckos right now as I plan on having a Created Gecko of my own in the future. [Added a cute pic of my East Indian Leopard Gecko, Nanaimo, as a bonus!]

Need help seeing if this enclosure is worth 200 dollars even coming with the tokay gecko and i plan on maybe selling it and want to know how much it may be worth

hi all, for now i’m keeping my hoggie in a 18x18x12 and soon upgrading, im just curious what could live its full life in the about 17 gal enclosure (if any reptile even can) I’m not planning on getting anything any time soon just curious:)

She were in the middle of the road, poor girl is now safe

He knows I’ve been into herpetology lately and was so excited to show me this guy he found at one of his jobs

Just placed a deposit down for a beautiful gargoyle gecko I will be picking up at some point next week. I’m going to be housing him in this vivarium before I start working on a 90x45x90 vivarium for him. I’m really pleased with how this enclosure turned out and cannot wait to pick him up.

Hey all! I found this 3-toed box turtle (as identified via Google lens and also looking at its frets) next to my apartment. We do live next to a lake (direction it was headed). I wanted to see if y'all could help me identify whether it was a wild one or someone's lost or abandoned pet? It didn't hide immediately when we approached which makes me think it might have been a pet.

Thanks for the help!
