Those eyes deserve a closer look. 👀

Gargoyle geckos have some of the most incredible eyes in the reptile world, and this little one certainly knows how to show them off!

Native to New Caledonia, gargoyle geckos get their name from the raised, horn-like bumps on their heads. Their colors and patterns are just as interesting, ranging from earthy browns and oranges to bold stripes and blotches.

They're also an excellent example of an arboreal gecko, using specialized toe pads and claws to navigate branches and other surfaces. And despite those impressive teeth in the last photo, they're primarily fruit and insect eaters!

Come see this little gargoyle for yourself at Northmen Exotics!

What's your favorite feature: those wild eyes, the orange coloration, or that impressive little smile? 🦎

A little sunshine with scales! ☀️🧡

Meet this gorgeous little lady, an Albino Western Hognose Snake!

Between her bright orange coloring, beautiful patterns, and that unmistakable upturned nose, she's quite the looker!

Western Hognoses are fascinating little snakes. Their signature upturned snouts aren't just for looks. They're specially adapted for digging through loose soil and sand, where they spend much of their time exploring and searching for food.

They're also known for their dramatic personalities! When startled, a hognose might flatten its neck, hiss, or even roll over and play dead. It's quite the performance from such a small snake.

And despite all that attitude, they're generally shy animals that would rather avoid confrontation.

She's here at Northmen Exotics, so stop by and meet her!

What do you think of her incredible orange coloring?

It's National Reptile Awareness Day, and we are celebrating! 🦎

October 21st is a day for reptile keepers, for the people who fight for these animals, and for the reptiles still living out in the wild. Plenty of them are misunderstood, some are threatened, and part of today is just shedding some light on why they aren't the scary cold-blooded critters people make them out to be.

Reptiles do real work in the world. Pest control. Food for other predators. They've also been popular pets since the 1960s, and the number of people keeping them has only grown since.

What we see changing is the questions. The more people learn, the better the questions new owners ask, about how to care for these animals and what they can do for them and their wild companions. That's a good direction, and it's worth a day.

So why does a day like this matter, and what do you think it takes for more people to see reptiles the way keepers do?

There's something about jumping spiders that makes people who don't like spiders stop for a second look. 🕷️

Those big eyes aren't just for show! Jumping spiders have incredible vision, and if you've ever had one turn around to look right at you, you know how curious these little guys can be. They've got a lot more personality than people expect from a spider.

We welcomed a group of captive-raised jumping spiders from Maverick The Jumping Spider in Colorado!

One of the great things about working with a breeder is knowing where your spiders came from, their care, and how they're feeding.

We brought in Maverick's bioactive and essentials enclosure kits too! We especially appreciate the front-opening design. Jumping spiders build their little silk hammocks near the top of their enclosures, so a front door keeps their homes undisturbed.

Huge thank you to Maverick for these amazing spiders and the thoughtfully designed setups!

Have you ever had a jumping spider turn around and look right back at you? 🕸️

Feeder restock day. 🪲

The live insect wall is full again: hornworms, mealworms, superworms, flightless fruit flies, and dubia roaches, all in stock and ready to go.

Thank you to everyone who comes in and trusts us to keep their animals fed. We appreciate you.

Your cleanup crew just got some backup! 🪲🌱

A bioactive enclosure is more than plants and dirt. It's a living ecosystem, and its hardest workers are the ones you barely notice.

Isopods and springtails break down waste, shed skin, and leftover food, cycling nutrients through the soil. Less waste buildup, healthier soil, and a more natural home for your animals.

Two additions from Rubber Ducky Isopods worth checking out!

MicroArid brings living soil to arid setups. Bearded dragons, leopard geckos, hognose snakes, and other desert species can go bioactive without the damp conditions of a tropical setup.

Snake Bio Boost is designed for snake enclosures, helping establish the beneficial soil biology that breaks down organic waste.

Whether it's a tropical rainforest, a temperate forest floor, or a desert habitat, there's a little world beneath your animal's feet.

Curious about going bioactive or upgrading your enclosure? Stop by Northmen Exotics! We'd love to show you how these little ecosystems work.

🦎 A Little Something for Our Baby Beardies!

One of the biggest things we talk about here at Northmen Exotics is proper husbandry, especially when it comes to bringing home a new reptile.

For baby bearded dragons, having the right enclosure, UVB lighting, and heating makes a huge difference in their health and development.

We also know getting everything set up properly is an investment, and we want to help our customers make the right choices from the beginning.

So we're offering $100 off any of our baby bearded dragons when purchased with a complete, properly equipped enclosure setup!

It's our way of giving a little something back to our customers while helping make sure our little dragons go home with the care they deserve.

Thinking about getting a bearded dragon? Stop by Northmen Exotics! We'd be happy to walk you through what a proper setup looks like and why each part matters.

This little guy looks like he's wearing camouflage pajamas, and we are HERE for it.

Amazon milk frogs get their name from the milky secretion they produce when stressed. It's a defense mechanism, not something you want to see regularly. A comfortable milk frog is one you mostly see at night, stuck to glass or a broad leaf, looking absolutely incredible.

That pattern breaks up their outline against bark and leaves. In the wild, that's the difference between getting eaten and getting to be the one doing the eating. Nature's design work at its finest. 🐸

Super exciting to have another milk frog in the shop. Come see this little dude in person!

Little guy is already making himself at home! 🦎

Giving beardies different levels, climbing opportunities, basking spots, and places to explore lets them make much better use of their enclosure. And sometimes they make it pretty clear which spot is their favorite.

Hard to argue with the view!
