REPTILES

Care Checklist



A reptile can be a fascinating pet and a wonderful learning experience for people of all ages. A terrarium environment with reptile inhabitants is like a moving, living piece of nature right in one's home. Petland Discounts carries a large selection of exotic and domestic reptiles to choose from. Whether you prefer snakes, lizards, or turtles, these long-lived pets can provide years of fascination, exhibiting much of the same behavior in your terrarium as they do in the wild.

Once you have chosen your pet, it is important to find out what kind of environment they came from in the wild. It is vital that you reproduce these conditions in your tank for these animals to thrive as pets.



The following is a list of accessories you may need for the care of your new pet.

_____Housing
It is important to match the tank or cage to the needs of the animal. Petland Discounts offers a variety of tanks and cages to meet every need of your pet.

_____Heating
One thing all reptiles share is a love of heat. Reptiles are cold-blooded and need to be kept warm. Temperatures for most reptiles falls between 80 and 100 degrees. Petland Discounts carries a large assortment of heat lamps, tank hoods, hot rocks, and water heaters to provide the right heating for your pet.

_____Lighting
Most reptiles require light to properly metabolize vitamins and minerals. There are large varieties of bulbs and fixtures available. Ask your Petland Discounts salesperson to recommend what is right for you.

_____Bedding
There are many types of beddings available: aspen bedding, orchard barks, tanks carpets, jungle mix, and lizard litter. Ask us which is better for your particular pet.

_____Decor
The cage/tank should be eye-pleasing, yet should simulate the natural environment of your pet. There are climbing objects, hollow logs, plants, and many other decorations. A well decorated terrarium can be a magnificent centerpiece for any room.

_____Food
There are several good brands of foods available in Petland Discounts. Ask your sales person for the brand and mixture best suited for your reptile.

_____Filtration
Aquatic animals such as turtles or amphibians require filtration of their environment to keep them healthy. Petland Discounts carries a large variety of filters and other accessories for your pet's well-being and maintenance.

_____Books
A very important tool for every pet owner. Books are essential to find out about the particular needs of your pet.
