🐦✨ LAST TWO Pineapple Green Cheek Conures Available! ✨🐦

Looking for a colorful, playful companion? These two Pineapple Green Cheek Conures are still waiting for their forever home! 🌿💛❤️ They were handfed but have been weaned for several months, so they will need a little extra love and patience to build up their confidence again.

🔹 Gender: Unknown
🔹 Diet: Eating a mix of small parrot, conure, and cockatiel food
🔹 Personality: Curious, intelligent, and full of energy!

🐾 Important Care Tips:
✔ Enrichment is Key! These conures thrive with toys that encourage foraging, shredding, and climbing. Consider rope perches, puzzle feeders, and wooden chew toys to keep them entertained.
✔ Grooming Needs: Regular wing, beak, and nail maintenance is essential for their health and comfort. Be sure to provide natural perches to help maintain their nails and beak naturally! We do grooming.
✔ Socialization & Bonding: Since they’ve been weaned for a while, they may be a little shy at first, but with gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and treats, they’ll be your best buddy in no time!

🏡 Ready to add one (or both!) to your flock? Visit us at Birds & Reptiles Plus to meet them in person!

📍 909 S Parrott Ave, Suite H, Okeechobee, FL
📅 Open Wednesday-Friday 11 AM - 6 PM | Saturday 11 AM - 5 PM and Sunday 12 PM - 4 PM

🦜 Don’t wait—these are our LAST TWO! Stop in or message us for more details.

🌿🐊 Leachianus Geckos Available Now! 🐊🌿

Looking for an extraordinary reptile to add to your collection? Meet our Leachianus Geckos (Rhacodactylus leachianus) – the largest living gecko species in the world! These incredible, prehistoric-looking reptiles are native to New Caledonia and are known for their stocky build, strong vocalizations, and bold personalities.

We currently have two available – one male and one female!

🦎 Why Choose a Leachie?

✔️ Unique & Rare: Their size, colors, and quirky behaviors make them a standout pet.
✔️ Arboreal Experts: They love vertical enclosures with plenty of climbing spaces.
✔️ Vocal & Expressive: Unlike many geckos, Leachies communicate with barks, growls, and grumbles!

🏡 Basic Care & Habitat Setup

✅ Enclosure Size: Minimum 18x18x24 for juveniles; adults thrive in 24x18x24 or larger bioactive terrariums.
✅ Temperature: 72-80°F with a slight drop at night. No high heat needed!
✅ Humidity: 60-80% – misting once or twice daily keeps them happy.
✅ Substrate: Coconut fiber, cypress mulch, or bioactive setups work best.
✅ Décor: Plenty of branches, cork bark, and hiding spots to mimic their natural tree-dwelling habitat.

🍽 Feeding & Diet

🥭 Commercial Diets: Pangea or Repashy meal replacement powders are excellent staples.
🦗 Live Insects: Dubia roaches, crickets, and the occasional waxworm for variety.
🍎 Fruits & Treats: They enjoy mashed banana, papaya, and other soft fruits in moderation.

🛒 Ready to Add a Leachie to Your Collection?

These gentle giants make fantastic display animals and can develop strong bonds with their keepers over time. If you're interested, stop by Birds & Reptiles Plus to see them in person or send us a message for more details!
