Here at Reptile Universe, we have two incredible reptiles who are looking for their forever homes! Right now, their fees are discounted by 15%, and while we recommend great enclosure setups for them, full enclosure kits are not required for purchase.

Meet Regina – Female Keeled Belly Lizard
Featured in the video with owner Kelly, Regina is an adult female Keeled Belly Lizard with a medium handle temperament. She’s a sassy, dramatic girl, but with enough trust and consistency in handling, she will make an awesome and rewarding addition to your collection! She is also Communal, meaning with a large enough enclosure she can live with a friend!
Enclosure Recommendation: A 24x24x 18 featuring plenty of climbing branches, hiding spots, and a warm basking area alongside a cooler humid hide.
Meet Nightmare – Golden Gecko
True to his name, Nightmare reminds us of Freddy Krueger from A Nightmare on Elm Street! He loves to hide and will happily jump at your face in a surprise ambush. He is surprisingly quick, and his enclosure is often opened with a bucket ready to catch his wild acrobatics. Perfect for an experienced keeper looking for a high-energy, entertaining gecko!
Enclosure Recommendation: An arboreal tropical enclosure (at least 18x18x24 inches) packed with vertical branches, dense foliage, and secure mesh ventilation to support his climbing and leaping habits.
Stop by Reptile Universe or reach out to us today to give Regina or Nightmare the loving forever home they deserve—and take advantage of that 15% discount!

We have ReptiBreeze Cages in sizes 16x16x30 and 18x18x36 discounted 10% in store that would be perfect for either of these guys! Military if you come in on Wednesday we will double dip that discount to 25% off the enclosure!

🐾 MEET YOUR NEW SCALY BEST FRIEND! 🐾

Looking for a low-maintenance, high-personality roommate who loves to lounge and has the sweetest little "smile"?

Meet our adoptable leopard gecko of the week! 🦎✨
Leopard geckos are famous for being wonderful pets—especially for beginners—thanks to their docile nature and easy-to-manage care.
Are you ready to give this cutie a loving home? Drop a comment or send us a message to find out how to adopt Pablo! 👇

🌟 Fun Facts About Leopard Geckos

-Unlike many other lizards, leopard geckos have eyelids and can actually blink and close their eyes to sleep!
-Their plump tails act like a backpack where they store extra fat and nutrients. (Fun fact: They can drop their tail if scared, but it grows back!)
-While they are generally quiet, happy leopard geckos can make little clicking or chirping noises to "talk" to you.

🏡 Enclosure Requirements
Tank Size: A 25 gallon (short is fine) tank is the minimum size for an adult leopard gecko.

Hide Boxes: Provide at least three hides—one on the warm side, one on the cool side, and a "moist hide" filled with damp sphagnum moss to help them shed easily.

🪴 Decor: Pablo requires a heavier decorated enclosure.

Substrate: We recommend coconut chip or Repti chip!

🦗 Diet & Nutrition
Insectivores: These guys love to munch! Their diet consists of live insects like crickets and superworms.

Calcium Boost: Insects should be dusted with calcium and vitamin D3 powders regularly to keep their bones strong and prevent metabolic bone disease (MBD)

These guys can live up to 25 years with proper care 🦎
