Husbandry Intelligence for Reptiles & Amphibians
Lizards, snakes, chelonians, amphibians, and invertebrates — each with environmental and regulatory realities a generic pet platform will miss. urReptile is built around the enclosure, not the cage.
Husbandry Archetypes
Six keeping-system paradigms covering the most common reptile and amphibian setups. Pick yours to get an enclosure dashboard tuned to your species and substrate — not a generic pet checklist.
Many reptile species are CITES-listed or restricted by US state law. urReptile surfaces species-specific regulatory status before purchase, breeding, or transfer — not after.
Arid Terrarium
Desert and arid-zone species: bearded dragons, leopard geckos, uromastyx. Basking temperatures, UVB index, and substrate humidity are the daily measurements.
- Basking + ambient temperature gradients
- UVB index tracking with bulb-replacement reminders
- Substrate humidity discipline
Tropical / Humid Terrarium
Crested geckos, day geckos, anoles, chameleons. Bioactive substrates, planted enclosures, and humidity cycling tied to species-of-origin biome.
- Humidity cycling and misting schedules
- Bioactive substrate maintenance logs
- Live-plant inventory and pruning
Snake — Rack or Enclosure
Ball pythons, corn snakes, boas, colubrids. Feeding schedules, shed cycles, and weight curves drive the entire husbandry record.
- Feeding and shed cycle tracking
- Weight-curve discipline by species
- Hide, soak, and temperature-gradient logs
Chelonian — Tortoise or Turtle
Long-lived tortoises and aquatic / semi-aquatic turtles. Outdoor pen rotation, water quality (turtles), brumation cycles, and growth-rate tracking.
- Indoor / outdoor enclosure schedules
- Brumation cycle planning and recovery
- Aquatic water-quality logs for turtles
Amphibian / Paludarium
Dart frogs, salamanders, axolotls, planted paludariums. Water quality matters as much as terrestrial substrate. Skin-permeability changes the safety surface for every chemical.
- Dual aquatic + terrestrial parameter tracking
- Chemical-exposure safety checks
- Skin-condition and feeding-response logs
Invertebrate
Tarantulas, mantids, scorpions, isopod and roach colonies. Molt cycles, humidity windows, and species-specific aggression profiles.
- Molt-cycle prediction and aftercare
- Species-specific humidity windows
- Colony census and feeder cultures
Built for the Reptile Reality
A generic pet record is wrong for a reptile. Heat, light, humidity, substrate, brumation, and regulation are not optional fields — they are the husbandry.
Species Directory
Reptile and amphibian species with environmental parameters, regulatory status, and keeping difficulty up front — not buried in care sheets.

Long lifespans (some chelonians outlive their keepers). Specialized diet. Regulatory exposure. Run the check before acquisition — not after.
