    Tag: best reptile pets

    Did you know that Village Vet Animal Clinic in Broken Arrow, OK  has been treating exotic pets for over 30 years?  Exotic pets are reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish, pocket pets (hamsters, hedgehogs, guinea pigs) and some other species of mammals.

    Reptiles are one of our favorite species and we often see turtles, lizards and snakes in our veterinary practice.

    What reptiles make great pets?  Village Vet Animal Clinic has some suggestions for you.

    Here are some of the reptiles that we think make very good pets –

    • Leopard Gecko – small lizards that are easy to handle and live well in in small tanks.
    • Bearded Dragon – docile lizard that is easy to handle and needs UV lighting.
    • Iguana – large, aggressive lizard only for experienced handlers.
    • Chameleon – a reptile known for being able to mimic the color of their surroundings.
    • Corn Snake – a docile snake that is great for beginners.
    • Ball Python – Docile but large snake that can grow up to 5 feet long.
    • Red Eared Slider – turtles are not as easy to raise as you might think and require a pet owner willing to make a long term commitment.

They may even die because of so much stress. Reptiles from the wild are also more likely to harbor parasites and/or organisms that might cause disease.
