n orders over $300. If an extension is needed please notify me in advance, We are flexible. Cash is accepted at shows and local pick up. If you are local to NYC/tri state area local pick up can be arranged and will even meet within reason. We vend many reptile expos in NY, PA along with attending Tinley NARBC and other large reptile shows in the US. SHIPPING
Shipping is done via FEDEX priority over night ONLY. We always prefer to ship to hub for pick up as it is the safest and least stressful method for the animal. That will be done by default unless previously arranged with customer. We only ship in Reptiles Express approved insulated boxes with appropriate cold, heat, or phase 22 packs. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO POSTPONE SHIPPING IF CONDITIONS ARE NOT APPROPRIATE! Anything over 85 and anything under 35 we will not ship, this is for the safety of your animal!

ALL orders will always have a live arrival guarantee. (US ONLY)
In the rare case of a DOA I must be notified with pictures and on some occasions videos, an animal of equal value will be replaced or money will be refunded. This is only void when, We are not notified within 2 hours of receiving the box, box is left out side for prolonged periods of time, or if there’s a delay with FedEx which is out of our control. SUMMER/WINTER HOLDS
If temperatures are not safe during the season that you were buying the animals from us we will happily hold your animals with a deposit until the temperatures are safe to ship. BUY BACKS
If for any reason you need to rehome an animal you purchased from us, we want to be the first to offer to buy those animals back. No matter what the reason is, no questions asked, we will buy the animal back. We care deeply about the animals that we produce! CONTACT US

Glowing chameleons?!
Under black light, this Rainbow Jackson’s chameleon (Trioceros jacksonii jacksonii) reveals glowing blue patterns—thanks to biofluorescence. Most chameleons don’t react to black light, however in some species their epidermis is thin enough where glow comes from tiny bony tubercles beneath the skin that absorb ultraviolet light.
Thank you to David Atthowe from who flew all the way from UK to NYC to photograph some of our animals at our facility!

Who else loves Lygodactylus williamsi? While the color blue is somewhat rare in the natural world, the males of this Tanzanian endemic gecko flaunts its colors proudly!

Naultinus elegans or the New Zealand green gecko.
Pinch me I must be dreaming. Never would I have thought these amazing animals would be in my care. One of the most sought after and elusive geckos in the world, this species is such a joy to have. Endemic to New Zealand, these are a live bearing species that gives birth to one or two babies a year.
Check out that black tongue!

The psychedelic rock gecko (Cnemaspis psychedelica) is often considered one of the rarest and most visually striking geckos in the world. Endemic to just a few small islands off the coast of Vietnam, this species is known for its vibrant coloration—a mix of bright orange, yellow, and black, with electric blue/purple body. Its rarity is due to its extremely limited range, and habitat destruction, making conservation efforts crucial for its survival.

For the first time, this elusive species will be on public display at , marking a significant moment for reptile enthusiasts and conservationists alike. The gallery’s exhibition not only showcases the stunning beauty of Cnemaspis psychedelica but also aims to raise awareness about the threats facing this gecko and other endangered reptiles.

Ethical captive breeding, when done responsibly, can help safeguard species like C. psychedelica from extinction while allowing for educational outreach and future reintroduction initiatives.
By featuring this gecko at The Gecko Gallery NYC, conservationists hope to inspire visitors to support habitat protection and responsible wildlife trade practices. This event serves as a reminder that while the psychedelic rock gecko is a marvel of nature, its future depends on human action and awareness.

Ornate Day Geckos, phelsuma ornata, are small and packed full of color! This young one is slowly developing more and more coloration along its dorsal and laterals. The blues and greens continue to pop with age. They're a wonderful species to keep, and fast enough to keep you agile
