The paper presents the results of the study of the influence of physical factors of the environment on the
composition and changes of microbiocenosis communities of reptiles. The main physical factors influencing
reptiles and their microbiota are temperature, illumination and humidity. In the natural habitat of the corn
snake, climatic conditions have a constant, narrow, temperature range from 28 to 30 °C. At a lower
temperature, all forms of microorganisms were suppressed, and coccal microflora was subjected to the most
dramatic temperature changes. As the temperature increased, a sharp increase in the bacillary forms of
microorganisms was found. In the case of captivity of this type of reptile, it is recommended to focus on
temperature and humidity, namely, to achieve consistency in these two parameters, as the temperature and
humidity have the greatest impact on the composition of microbiocenoses. Amur rat snake, unlike the corn
snake has a wide range of climatic conditions, namely it is found in the steppes, highlands and northern regions.
The microflora of these reptile species is significantly influenced by the sanctification in combination with other
factors studied by us. Under low light conditions, the growth of E. coli group was suppressed and the bacillary
forms of microorganisms were increased. With increased insolation, a sharp mixture of microbiocenoses
towards Escherichia coli and increased competition of all forms of microorganisms was observed. In the
conditions of captivity of the Amur rat snake, according to the results of the obtained studies, an individual
approach is recommended, namely, imitation of changes in climatic conditions in the habitat from which a
particular individual was obtained. In both reptile species, microflora included cocoke forms, E. coli bacilli and
microscopic fungi. Changes in the quantitative and qualitative composition of microbiocenoses of the skids are
related to the relationships within biocenotic communities caused by the physical parameters of their natural
habitat.
