ABOUT

OUR ANIMALS





DRAGON



Stardust is the newest member of the family, continuing a lineage of bearded dragons, and is a growing boy who loves to lounge under his heat lamp in a princely manner. He loves chasing after grubs and taking trips around the shop on our shoulders.








SKINK



Our resident blue-tongued skink is Smaug, a dangerously cute beast who is frequently mistaken for an oddly fat snake. Friendly and familiar with the art of escape, Smaug has been a treasured member of the family since 2015. Although he can be grumpy in the morning when breakfast is served and disturbs his beauty sleep, he is a sweetheart and fascinates visitors from far and wide.









GECKO



Jeremy is a giant day gecko and our oldest shop critter. He has been a part of the R9 family since the shop opened in 2007! He is a master at hide-and-seek, although the games are never really fair since he is always the one that hides. Once you spot him, most likely lounging on his branch or on the wall of his home, he will stun you with his adorable looks.
