Exo Terra T Rex Skull
Exo Terra T Rex Skull
A hide that doubles as a conversation piece. The Exo Terra T-Rex Skull is a realistically moulded fossil-style ornament with multiple entrances running through it, giving geckos, small lizards, froglets and invertebrates a snug retreat while adding a bit of prehistoric character to the enclosure. It's sold in two sizes.
Key features
- Genuine hide, not just decor — the hollow interior and multiple openings give an animal entry, exit and a lookout point rather than a single dead-end burrow.
- Humid microclimate — the enclosed shape helps hold a pocket of higher humidity than the open enclosure air, useful around shedding.
- Realistic fossil detail — moulded to look weathered and bone-like rather than a plain cartoon prop.
- Works across setups — suited to desert, rainforest or aquatic/paludarium terrariums alike.
- Two sizes — Small and Large, for nano setups through to larger enclosures.

Which size do I need?
The Small (7 x 15.1 x 6.2 cm) suits nano enclosures, froglets, small geckos and invertebrates. The Large is sized for bigger lizards and general-purpose enclosure décor where the Small would look out of proportion — Exo Terra hasn't published an exact dimension for it, so if floor space is tight, check the piece against your enclosure footprint before ordering, or get in touch for a measurement.
Suitable for — and not suitable for
Suited to geckos, small lizards, froglets, invertebrates and similar animals that use enclosed hides. Not intended to bear significant weight — it's a lightweight ornament and hide, not a climbing structure rated for larger, heavier reptiles to sit on top of.
Care and maintenance
Rinse and wipe down as part of normal enclosure cleaning. The material is inert and easy to clean, so it can be disinfected between animals if needed.
Goes well with
- Exo Terra Dinosaur Eggs hide, for a matching prehistoric-themed set piece.
- Desert, forest or aquatic substrate matched to the terrarium style you're building around it.
- A water dish, where the humid-microclimate benefit is being used to support shedding.

Common questions
Does the Large size have published dimensions?
No — Exo Terra's own product page doesn't list dimensions for the Large T-Rex Skull. We'd rather say that plainly than guess a figure; get in touch if you need an exact measurement before ordering.
Will this hold humidity?
It helps create a more humid pocket than the open enclosure air, which is useful around shedding, but it isn't a sealed humidity box — pair it with your normal humidity and misting routine.
Is it safe in a bioactive or aquatic set-up?
Yes — Exo Terra markets it as suitable across desert, rainforest and aquatic terrarium styles.
