What reptiles thrive between 65-75

What reptiles can live in 65-75 degrees? or close to this range. Ive got crested geckos and i love not having to worry about heating. what other lizards can do this and are there any snakes as well? preferably something popular in the pet trade

I saw the title and my first thought was cresties haha. Im not really sure, sorry! :)

Garter snakes (at least some), can deal with temps that low. Ive seen them out during the day here when its not even 60 (according to my thermometer, but I always swear its more like 70 in the sunlight those days.

If you go to thamnophis.com they should be able to tell you whatever you need to know.

I have a corn that's my display snake who's kept in a room that usually gets around 74-78. The temps in the room drop overnight too to about 70-72. I have a regulated UTH that's always on to give him a hotspot in case he gets colder and to digest. Corns and Kings are hardy snakes and I haven't had problems with mine. Maybe some more will chime in to see if they're keeping these colubrids in cooler temp ranges too.

Someone on here had said that they keep their corns/kings in a room thats 78-82 year round. No hotspot just around 80 degrees all the time. And they bred and thrived. I cant remember who it was though :/

I give my corns a hot spot up to 88, but they can easily do a bit cooler. I don't know about 65-75 degrees as constant temps, but rubber boas, candoia species boas, and a few turtles do well at cooler temps.

65 for any cold blooded animal is hard to live with. Their metabolism would be slow to such an extent that it would become difficult to maintain proper circulation, digestion, or even eye sight. Think hibernation.....

I had a red eared slider when I was about 10. It was a baby and I kept him outside. A frost came one night and he was frozen in a block of ice the next morning. I remember I just left him there and few days later he was swimming around again. Pretty sweet except I then put him in the freezer for about a week until my mom found him..... There was no more swimming. :(

You could try mandarin ratsnakes, but your still gonna need atleast a slight hot spot of 80 to 82.

X2 on the corns, I'd want a little higher, like 70-85 range, but they do just fine in cooler temps. I live in Florida, where corns are native, and they stay outside for most of the year w/o heat. (breed just fine). I only bring them in when it drops to around 60.

wait what???
You froze your turtle for a week?

I only say 65 in case of drops but my usual room temp is between 70 and 76. I was looking at rubber boas corn snakes and gargoyle geckos as well as mourning geckos. got some research to do till i know for sure which our next species will be
