Almost mossy frog season for the year! Have a decent group of tadpoles starting to morph out and several more batches on the way. This video is of one of the biggest adults here.

Checking on one of the Oedura coggeri groups. Have O. monilis eggs on the ground already but these guys are holding out! A few look promising but nothing yet. Still a really cool species and lucky to have them here.

New arrivals this morning from @herptime ! Thrilled to add Sphaerodactylus to the mix here, some true micro geckos. Their movements and the way they observe their environment are like no other, haven’t seen anything quite like it before!
Pictured is Sphaerodactylus macrolepis but we also got a small group of S. sputator. Just awesome!

A little shinisaurus content since it’s been a little while since their last post! Video I took a couple weeks back of the 2023 babies. Doing great and a lot bigger already 😆 this species is a joy to keep, paludarium type setup and here they all eat a variety of insects, earthworms, shrimp, chopped fish, and a few of the Repashy diets are also taken with enthusiasm.

Happy World Lizard Day from RS&S!
Here’s a quick snap of one of the mourning gecko colonies sampling some Pangea gecko diet.

Today we picked up a great looking trio of viper geckos from @whoosgeckos at the NY Metro Reptile Expo.
Already had a single pair here but these will help bolster genetic diversity in our groups and as a plus they are such a cute little species to work with that isn’t super fast like many of the smaller geckos in the hobby.

These little pinecones are so cute 🥹 Decided to give them some freeze dried food as a treat and I’ve absolutely never seen them react so fast before! It was a hit! Gidgee Skinks | Egernia stokesii
Was asked to post an update on this one, was a really light baby and held onto the color pretty well! Btw- this is a yellow spotted night lizard and they are fast & bitey, I only had her out for a quick wellness check otherwise I leave them be.
Just a pair of Cuban false chameleons having a refreshing drink after I went through and misted everyone 😎🌧
Ps- we have eggs incubating from these guys, finally!!

Merulanella sp. ‘Ember Bee’. Very very cool little buggies. Hopefully they do well here, some of the really fancy pods seem so slow to establish so we’ll see how it goes.

Cuban False Chameleon/Anolis barbatus enjoying a snack! One of the most intelligent lizards I have worked with (besides varanids).
Just checking up on the Shiro Utsuri isopods. I do have a bulk quantity available if anyone is looking ✈️

Just showing off the unique colors of this velvet swamp snake/Liophis typhlus. Picked up at a local expo for one of our buddies and he/she is headed off to their new home this week. Super cool critter.
Cophoscincopus Feeding
Cophoscincopus sp./keeled water skinks having lunch! Super cool, super tiny little skinks currently in QT and doing well. Looking forward to getting them into a nice paludarium in the near future.
Little feeding video (taken a few months ago, the shinis are currently brumating and haven’t eaten since 🙂)
I saw a question yesterday about UVB pop up in the notifications, but by the time I was able to respond it was gone. So, to answer: yes! We do provide these guys with 5.0 T5HO Reptisun bulbs, and it definitely has an effect on their behavior. Especially noticeable when replacing an old bulb, they will come out and be doing all sorts of behaviors, head bobbing, etc. important for enrichment as well as calcium synthesis.

You know what I never posted that we have in the collection? Cubaris ‘Shiro Utsuri’. They’ve been doing great here and we will be bringing a pack of juveniles to the Hamburg PA reptile show this Saturday 😎
Yummies time! The male shinisaurus having a nice superworm snack.

Look at how ridiculously quick these guys are 🤣🤣. Almost the entire squad of Phelsuma klemmeri in one shot too!
