Where to Buy Lizards in Nanning: A Guide to Local Options and Species

If you're looking to buy a lizard in Nanning, you'll find several options, primarily at local pet markets and specialized pet stores. The main places to explore are the flower and bird markets (often also selling exotic pets) and some pet shops along Qixing Road.

The flower and bird markets, along with pet stores on Qixing Road, are common spots to find lizards. Lizards are generally considered relatively easy to care for. The price varies, and it's best to negotiate with the shop owner directly. Larger lizards are usually more expensive. Remember to prepare a suitable habitat with branches for them.

Another option is near the gas station opposite the Yuanhu Road flower and bird market. There's a store next to Jiajia Pet that sells snakes and lizards. Also, check out the exotic pet store near Hongxing Primary School on Qixing Road. You might find what you're looking for there. Pythons can cost 2000+ RMB for smaller ones, and lizards are generally in a similar price range, often less.
