7 Exotic Pets For Small Spaces

Here are 7 of the best exotic pets that are appropriate for small spaces.

Hermit Crabs

A 10-gallon tank can comfortably house a couple of medium or a few small hermit crabs.

Tarantulas

Most species kept as pets have bites similar to bee stings, though they might cause some people to have an allergic reaction.

Emperor Scorpions

Emperor scorpions are fine living in a 10-gallon tank, and they're definitely interesting to watch.

Mice

Mice are great for small spaces. Get a pair or small group of female mice, as they typically are social and happiest with company.

Frogs and Toads

There are several frogs and toads that are suitable for small spaces. Dwarf-clawed frogs are very small and completely aquatic, and a gallon tank should suit them.

Hamsters

Hamsters need at least a 2-square-foot cage that has space for their food, chew toys, and a covered area in which they can hide and sleep.

Geckos

Leopard and house geckos are among the best choices for reptile pets, especially for beginners.
