Do you take your reptiles outside?
Posted by Sarah on March 17, 2009

Do you take your reptiles outside, or if you’re in warmer climates, keep them outside.
We all know that sunlight is good for reptiles, and I’ve heard a few people recommend taking chameleons outside so that they can get some natural sun for a while.
We haven’t taken our chameleons outside, because they never really liked being handled.
Now that Skye is dead, Sully doesn’t mind being handled as much, so we will probably try to take him outside for a few hours if we are ever home when it’s warm enough, and it isn’t too windy.
If we do take him outside we are planning to keep him in his baby cage, and we will stay out there the whole time to make sure nothing gets him.
We’ve also taken our snakes out to play in the grass.
Sheila doesn’t move around much, but Monty likes to explore.
Do you take your reptiles outside?
Why or why not?
Do they like it?

I think it really depends on where you live. We don’t really get the weather in the UK to do this. On a hot summers day though I let my tortoises run around outside for a bit and they seem to love exploring!

I think the climate definitely has an effect on whether you’ll be able to take your reptiles outside.
I bet the tortoises love running around outside.
