The Reptile Room

Welcome to The Reptile Room STL, our one-of-a-kind interactive reptile and invertebrate experience brought to you by Tarantula Cribs. Unlike a traditional zoo, The Reptile Room is a more intimate, hands-on environment featuring over 50 species of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates from around the world.

During public weekend hours, guests can hold, feed, and learn about fascinating creatures—from snakes and lizards to tarantulas and scorpions—while capturing unforgettable photos. Our friendly staff and educators make each visit safe, fun, and deeply educational for all ages.

We also host birthday parties, private group tours, and educational events, offering a unique way to celebrate and connect with animals up close. Whether you’re a curious first-timer or an experienced reptile lover, The Reptile Room delivers an experience you won’t forget.
