🎄🦎🐍 Merry Christmas From All of Us at Ruby’s Reptile Rodeo! 🎁🌟

On this Christmas Day, all of our scales, snoots, claws, and tiny noodle tongues want to say one thing…

Thank you.

Thank you for supporting rescue work.
Thank you for following our animals’ stories.
Thank you for giving second chances to reptiles who truly needed them.

From the shy ones learning to trust,
to the spicy ones learning boundaries,
to the medical cases fighting their way back,
to the seniors settling into comfort —
every reptile here is celebrating today because of you.

🎄 Dart is zooming into the new year.
🎄 Butternut Biscuit and Chicken Pot Pie are booping their little noses into holiday treats.
🎄 Sandy is basking under her “Christmas Star” UVB.
🎄 Friday is huffing at ornaments he thinks are intruders.
🎄 Squirrel is judging all of us from above like the queen she is.
🎄 Tortilla, Lavender, Tito, and Mischief are splashing in their holiday pools.
🎄 Mozzarella Stick is ignoring the festivities entirely and prefers not to be handled today (or ever).
🎄 Petra, CB, BC, Baby, and Nagini are curled up in cozy hides like little scaly stockings.
🎄 Voodoo Master is thriving under the right heat for the first Christmas in his life.
🎄 Durian, Kiwi, Zilla, and Slender Man are all receiving the special care they deserve.

And from every single reptile still looking for their forever home…

We hope the new year brings us the family we’ve been waiting for.

Thank you for believing in rescue.
Thank you for loving reptiles.
Thank you for giving them the warm, safe lives they never had before.

Merry Christmas from Ruby’s Reptile Rodeo —
and every little life you’ve helped save. ❤️🐢🦎🐍🎄

🐍🔥 Meet Handsome Man — Our Striking Gopher Snake With a Big Attitude!

Experienced Keepers Only

Say hello to Handsome Man, and yes — he really is as good-looking as his name suggests. This bold gopher snake has incredible markings, a strong presence, and the confident personality gopher snakes are famous for.

But don’t let the handsome face fool you:
✨ He will bite.
✨ He is defensive.
✨ He needs an experienced reptile home.

Handsome Man is a classic gopher snake in every sense — alert, reactive, fast, and full of spirit. With the right environment and respect for his boundaries, he is absolutely fascinating to work with and even more impressive to observe.

💛 About Handsome Man

✨ Fiery, high-energy personality
✨ Strong feeding response
✨ Not handleable at this time
✨ Very active and fun to watch
✨ Stunning natural coloration

🏡 Ideal Home

Handsome Man is not a pet for beginners. He needs someone who enjoys working with defensive colubrids and understands that some snakes are best appreciated as display animals rather than hands-on companions.

He will thrive with:

✔ A secure, escape-proof enclosure
✔ Plenty of hides and enrichment
✔ Minimal handling
✔ A keeper who respects defensive behavior
✔ Someone who appreciates a bold, naturalistic snake

Handsome Man isn’t here to be held — he’s here to be admired. In the right home, he will be a stunning, captivating addition who brings tons of personality and presence.

If you’re an experienced keeper who loves a challenge and respects a snake with confidence, Handsome Man might be exactly your type.

🐍🧀 Meet Mozzarella Stick — Our Stretchy Snack-Themed Sweetheart (Who Prefers No Handling!)

Say hello to Mozzarella Stick, our adorably named reptile diva who brings tons of personality — just not the cuddles. Mozzarella Stick is a lively, curious snake who loves to explore her enclosure, peek dramatically from her hides, and watch the world with big, expressive eyes.

But let’s be clear:
✨ She does NOT enjoy being handled.
She prefers to be admired, not picked up, and thrives as a look-but-don’t-touch companion. With space, enrichment, and respect for her boundaries, she absolutely flourishes.

🧀 About Mozzarella Stick

✨ Active and curious
✨ Fantastic eater
✨ Hilarious personality
✨ Enjoys enrichment and exploring
✨ Prefers being observed rather than touched

🏡 What She Needs

Mozzarella Stick would do best in a home that understands:

✔ She is NOT a handleable snake
✔ She prefers minimal physical interaction
✔ She thrives with a secure, enriched enclosure
✔ A confident keeper who respects boundaries
✔ Regular feeding and stable temperatures

She is perfect for someone who loves watching natural behaviors, appreciates a snake with a little “spice,” and values a companion they don’t need to hold.

If you’re ready to open your home to a quirky, adorable snake who just wants to live her best hands-off life, Mozzarella Stick is your girl.

🦎💚 Meet Squirrel — Our Semi-Feral, Fiercely Beautiful Iguana Looking for the Right Home

Experienced Keepers Only

Say hello to Squirrel, a stunning female iguana with a wild heart and a Florida origin story. Squirrel was wild-caught in Florida and later imported, and because of that, she carries many of the natural instincts and behaviors of a truly feral iguana.

She is not a beginner reptile.
She is not tame.
She is not handleable in the traditional sense.

But she is extraordinary.

Squirrel is alert, intelligent, powerful, and deeply observant. Watching her explore, bask, or choose her favorite leafy greens is like having a piece of the tropics right in your home. She deserves an adopter who respects her boundaries and can offer her space, safety, and stability rather than forced handling.

💚 About Squirrel

✨ Semi-feral; prefers minimal handling
✨ Thrives with spacious enclosures and high climbing branches
✨ Eats well and enjoys a proper iguana diet
✨ Beautiful coloration and strong, confident behavior
✨ Flourishes when allowed to simply be an iguana

🏡 Ideal Home Requirements

Squirrel will only be placed with an experienced keeper who can provide:

✔ A large, secure indoor enclosure
✔ High heat, humidity, and proper UVB
✔ A calm, predictable environment
✔ Respect for her space and boundaries
✔ Understanding of semi-feral iguana behavior
✔ Willingness to let her live as a display animal, not a pet that “must be handled”

Squirrel is not a cuddly lizard — she is a majestic, independent animal who deserves a home that honors her nature. With the right setup and a patient, knowledgeable keeper, she can thrive for many, many years.

If you’re ready to give a wild-spirited iguana the safe, enriched life she deserves, Squirrel may be your perfect match.

🐢🌮 Meet Tortilla — Our Sunny Red-Eared Slider Looking for a Forever Pond… Indoors!

Say hello to Tortilla, a beautiful red-eared slider with big energy, big splashes, and an even bigger personality. Tortilla came into the rescue in need of a fresh start, and now that he’s thriving with proper care, he’s ready to find a forever home that understands what a full-grown aquatic turtle really needs.

Tortilla is active, alert, and always on the move. If he could talk, he’d absolutely ask you what snack you brought him and why you’re not filling his tank right now. He loves swimming, basking, and zipping around his enclosure like a little aquatic torpedo.

🌞 About Tortilla

✨ Classic red-eared slider personality — bold and curious
✨ Eats enthusiastically
✨ Loves enrichment and basking
✨ Beautiful shell and strong swimmer

🏡 What Tortilla Needs

Red-eared sliders are amazing turtles, but they are not small-pet-sized animals. Tortilla will require:

✔ A large, indoor aquatic setup
✔ Clean, filtered water
✔ A proper basking platform and UVB
✔ A varied diet
✔ Someone who appreciates an active, entertaining turtle

He is not a good choice for someone wanting a small, low-effort reptile — but he is PERFECT for someone who loves watching a lively turtle zoom around and who understands long-term aquatic turtle care.

If you're ready to bring home a bright, spirited turtle with tons of personality, Tortilla would love to meet you.

🦎🌞 Meet Sandy — Our Sweet Senior Bearded Dragon Looking for Her Forever Retirement Home

In Rescue Since 2022

Say hello to Sandy, our lovely older bearded dragon who has been waiting far too long for her perfect person. Sandy came to the rescue in 2022, and despite being an absolute sweetheart, she has watched many dragons get adopted while she remained behind. We think it’s finally her time to shine.

Sandy is a calm, gentle girl who enjoys warm basking spots, soft veggies, and quiet company. She may be older, but that just means she’s past the chaotic “speedy baby” stage — she’s a cozy companion who prefers lounging, observing, and soaking up all the warmth life has to offer.

💛 Why We Love Sandy

✨ Sweet, easygoing temperament
✨ Perfect for someone who wants a gentle, relaxed pet
✨ Eats well and enjoys routine
✨ Great for beginners or experienced reptile keepers
✨ Still full of personality and charm

🏡 Her Ideal Home

Sandy would thrive in a home that can provide:

✔ Proper heat, UVB, and enclosure size
✔ A stable routine
✔ A keeper who appreciates a slower-moving, affectionate older girl
✔ Soft foods and gentle care as she ages

Sandy doesn’t ask for much — just warmth, safety, and someone who will love her for who she is. After spending years in rescue, she deserves a comfortable, peaceful retirement with a family who sees just how special she is.

If you’re ready to give an older dragon the loving forever home she’s been waiting for, Sandy would be thrilled to meet you.
