Wellness exams are the most important part of your exotic pet’s health care. We recommend annual exams that allow us to review your pet’s health often and catch any early signs of disease. Typically, a wellness exam for an exotic pet will consist of:
An important part of exotic pet care is their habitat, nutrition, and socialization, which is why we emphasize these points during an annual check-up. Exotic pets, particularly reptiles and amphibians, fare better in environments that closely match their home habitat. For instance, all reptiles need an appropriate amount of UVB lighting and a temperature gradient within their enclosure. Without enough UVB exposure, your lizard or snake can suffer severe vitamin and nutrient deficiencies.
