Ruby's Reptile Rodeo

20/06/2025

Meet Princess little piddles and Shinobu the chinchillas! These two ladies are a bonded pair and are absolutely adorable. If youve been looking for two fantastic chinchillas, now is your chance!
These two ladies must go together and do have some very strict space requirements in order to thrive.
They love wooden spaces and ledges. A double critter nation or similar cage is ideal for them. These girls are only 2 years old, meaning they have about 15 plus years to hang around you and be adorable!

If you’ve ever thought about adopting a reptile or other exotic, now is the perfect time to bring home a new scaly friend! Each adoption helps us continue our mission and opens up space for future rescues in need.

Thank you for understanding and supporting our mission. Let’s find these critters the homes they deserve!

There has apparently been some confusion to our mission statement. When opening any 501c3, you must create a mission statement stating exactly what your organization is about and why. This is typically public information and attached to tax and state records as well. Ours is as follows:

Rubys Reptile Rodeo is dedicated to the education to the public about reptiles, the rehabilitation of reptiles, amphibians, arachnids and other exotics and the rescue of reptiles, amphibians, arachnoids, exotics and extreme special needs animals to prevent euthanasia. Rubys reptile rodeo was founded to be a safe sanctuary for all exotic creatures until adoption and provide safe and effective relocation of reptilian and arachnoid wildlife including venomous species however does not harbor or adopt out any venomous species.

We get so many birds that are just babies learning how to be birds. Please stop kidnapping birds.

This little lady was found at discovery park, in the water!!!! A good Samaritan saved her life and we're hoping to find her home as she's too far away from the desert to be wild. She has no microchip nor identification tag/number on her shell. If you're the owner of this lovely lady please provide proof of ownership.
Due to her shell deformities, extremely friendly demeanor and the fact that she had fallen into a deep pond of water and nearly drown had it not been for her savior (they can not swim) all indicates she is someone's pet. We work closely with Nye county animal control and the desert tortoise foundation as well and they agree. It is legal to own one in pahrump as long as they're documented and microchipped.
She also has a significant human made marking on her :)
Feel free to check out our website www.rubysreptilerodeo.com for our adoptables including tortoises! We have two sulcatas who need a home!

We do home checks!!!

Yes we do home checks! Now we don't physically go to your home, we rely on photos for that and basically really only want to see the space your new friend will be staying at. We're not picky either and understand everyone has different levels of habitats. As long as minimum space requirements are met (no adult boas in a 10 gallon) and proper heat source, hiding space and water dish is provided were ok with this. We may ask you to make changes due to the betterment of the animal, example being hey remove that heat rock due to thermal burns, but we're not asking for an 8x4 enclosure for a leopard gecko. If you can and want to provide that cool! But what we won't accept is a ball going into a rack, a reptile being cohabed that has no business having friends, a fancy morph being sought after because it's a cheap breeding project. Simple things. These animals have lived very hard past lives and their future should be comfort and love. This is why we ask our questions. This is why we have follow up questions and ask for photos.
If these are things you can't give your new friend, then we're not adopting to you.

Disclaimer: We understand there are certain reptile species that thrive in social groups and we are absolutely open to adopting out to those who plan to cohab these species given the adopter has a plan for the animal if they do not get along.

The girls enjoying some cantaloupe!
Operation Desert storm is still looking for a home! She is the sulcata in front. She is about 6 years old and very sweet!
Poofdirt in the background is officially one of our ambassadors! You can see her at one of our events and give her some good pats or snacks.

Meet Fettuccine Alfredo and Kielbasa.
Another transfer from The Animal Foundation who desperately need our help. Fettuccine Alfredo is a baby assumed female iguana who has some severe mouth rot and horrible shed on her tail along with being massively dehydrated.
Kielbasa is a large female ball python who not only had horrendous shedding issues but also has a vent full of pus.
It's definitely not a fun situation for either of them but hopefully our amazing veterinarian can get these two back on their feet....snake feet?

Meet Operation desert storm and the terrible picture I have of her! Between my new phone and my old phone, some how she was missed from being posted. She is a 5-6 year old sulcata looking for a perfect home!
