Mugs and tee-shirts are great and all, but when it comes to Christmas gifts, creativity shows just how much you care — even if you don’t share their passion for reptiles. To make your search easier (believe me, Googling “reptile gifts” doesn’t work as well as it should), we’ve put together a list of ideas for all tastes, from the lover of cute things to the more sophisticated reptile enthusiast.

Giant Reptile Gummies
As a gummy enthusiast, I can testify that Vat19 has an incredible selection of gummies.

Or if you’re feeling really daring, they also have a 26 lb, 7′ long gummy python!
