Hey, check out the new guy!
Listening to these little geckos talk to each other, is definitely a perk of the job 😊
Hi there everyone, if you have any old newspapers laying around please could you bring them in as we are running out!! And we need them for all the rescue animals we have in currently.
Cheers
Contrary to popular belief, reptiles do need cycles of cool periods. Especially temperate species.
With the hot weather, here are some ways to cool down your reptiles.
⭐️Replace fresh water⭐️
Adding a larger bowl of fresh water can aid in cooling the enclosure down, and give your animals a much needed place to bathe and cool down
⭐️Check your ventilation and add fans⭐️
Some enclosures just aren't that great when it comes to air flow. If you're having issue with air flow problems, add some more air vents to the enclosure and/or you can always add a fan to extract hot air/replace the air with fresh and cool air.
⭐️Frozen items⭐️
This method is probably one of the quicker and cost effective ways to cool the enclosure.
You can place a frozen bottle of water within the habitat, you could also add some ice cubes to the water dish.
If it's especially hot, you can freeze multiple bottle to either create a constant stream of cooling or you can place multiple bottles with the environment.
⭐️Cooling mat⭐️
Just like with dogs, you can create a "cooling mat" simply place a piece of slate or kitchen tile in the fridge and place it in the enclosure when cool enough.
*DO NOT PLACE IN THE FREEZER*
⭐️Check your heating⭐️
Is your heating still on?
If so, turn it off.
This is species dependent, please ensure you research your animals max/min temperature before doing this. If you're unsure, please feel free to ask a staff member 😊
I'm actually really impressed by this gecko feeding ledge! #gecko #geckosofig #reptiles
