Reptiles

Reptiles are among the most rewarding pets you can keep — but they're also among the most misunderstood. Get the environment right and you'll have a healthy, active animal that lives a long and fascinating life. Get it wrong and no amount of good food will compensate. Petworld stocks the full range of specialist equipment and supplies to make sure you get it right from day one.
🦎 Food & Nutrition — Live, frozen, and dried feeders including crickets, mealworms, and pinky mice. Canned foods, pellets, and species-specific supplements for bearded dragons, chameleons, snakes, tortoises, and geckos.
🏠 Vivariums & Terrariums — Glass and mesh enclosures in a range of sizes for arboreal species like chameleons, terrestrial species like bearded dragons, and semi-aquatic setups. Starter kits and standalone enclosures available.
🌡️ Heating & Thermostats — Basking bulbs, ceramic heat emitters, heat mats, and thermostats to maintain the precise temperature gradients your specific species requires.
☀️ UVB & Lighting — Full-spectrum UVB bulbs, T5 and T8 tubes, and lighting timers. Essential for bearded dragons and chameleons that require UV exposure to metabolise calcium correctly.
💧 Humidity & Water — Misters, foggers, hygrometers, and drip systems — particularly critical for chameleons, who need moving water and high humidity to stay healthy.
🪨 Décor & Substrate — Hides, branches, vines, rocks, and cork bark. Naturalistic substrates including coco fibre, reptile sand, and bioactive soil mixes for species-appropriate enclosure builds.
🧪 Health & Supplements — Calcium and vitamin D3 dusting powders, shedding aids, and wound care for the most common reptile health needs.

Bearded Dragons are one of South Africa's most popular reptile pets — sociable, handleable, and relatively straightforward to keep when the lighting and diet are right. Our bearded dragon range covers everything from hatchling setups to full adult enclosures.
Chameleons are spectacular but demanding. They need specific humidity, live food variety, UVB lighting, and vertical space to feel secure. Our chameleon supplies are stocked with exactly that in mind — no compromise, no shortcuts.
Snakes are low-maintenance once the enclosure is set up correctly. The right hide, the right heat gradient, and a consistent feeding schedule is all most species need. Our snake range covers corn snakes, ball pythons, and king snakes — the most commonly kept species in South Africa.
