@@him6799 I've been skipping the intro recently haha

@@SuperGiantGeckosLLC This is also a good idea! Variety always helps, but some people aren't able to keep a variety of insects for feeding, like myself at the moment. And as long as your gecko is eating and getting the right nutrients, you should be fine

@@leopardopediaanother thing is they can feel vulnerable when eating out in the open, unless youve❤bonded w the tong. But sometime they don’t want it from the tong. Catch or place your Leo in one of its hides then try tong feeding by the entrance , if that doesn’t work let one loose into the hide.

@@SuperGiantGeckosLLC That's also true, Autumn is very comfortable with tings and people luckily

@@SCMI7Y As long as they are getting the nutrients they need and are at a healthy weight, that should be fine. Crickets are one of the best foods nutritionally, but gut loading is still very important!

@@WG9775 Thank you! That was my goal! I appreciate the comment!

@@leopardopedia No problem!

I'll never forget what "Schlatt" did for me back in '99

Yes, a 40 gallon tank is the perfect size tank to house a Leo for it's entire life! It allows it to not only *just* survive, but also thrive! However, if you can provide any reputable material stating otherwise, I'd be more than happy to pin your comment.

For an adult, a 40 is the minimum size to thrive. 20 long is enough to survive, but think about it as if it were yourself. Would you rather thrive or just survive? Best of luck!

That's smart! They really do love to climb, don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

Mostly political stuff, "Cue"(can't say the Letter)-anon theories, racist slurs, homophobic slurs, etc lol

@@leopardopedia holy shit. I didn't know so many hardcore chuds were into reptiles. I can't imagine their husbandry standards are very good. Those people are famous for their lack of empathy. Actually, I get the q anon peoples' interest in reptiles lol

Thanks! If your Mathilde looks anything like Autumn then I'm sure she's going to look amazing!

@@leopardopedia she has the same colour and pattern, atleast on her cute little face, the shades might vary from Autumn but its atleast in the 90% close range haha

I have 4 hides, a cave, and multiple sticks that cover and create dark spots for her.

They have great personalities!

Check out my Leopard Gecko Care Guide videos! And definitely check some other creators out as well!

@leopardopedia thanks

I have a Leo I didn’t know what to name him so now I have a Leo named Leo

@@NekoandLeo Leo the leo!

Hi! Tysm so much for watching and I'm genuinely glad you learned something from my ramblings haha To answer your questions, Enigma Leo's are indeed very prone (if not completely guaranteed) to some of the horrible symptoms I mentioned and it's really not worth supporting the morph! Now the banana blizzard morph isn't something I'm familiar with, so I did some research. The closest thing I found was "Banana Blazing Blizzard" but apparently no one has been able to produce one. May I ask where you plan to get your Leo?

@@leopardopedia I "assumed" she was a banana blizzard only because of her colours, and I could absolutely be DEAD WRONG. I found a lady whose husband (who was a leo fanatic) passed away and is now stuck with 20 geckos and has no idea what to do lol. Shes based in Gatineau, QC, CANADA, but theres no papers to determine what the morph is....just me guessing with absolutely no education lol

@Mariggane16469 Ah, yeah, colors can help to determine the morph, but most of the time don't help as a lot of coloration can be shared between morphs or inconsistent. As long as you have a good setup and are prepared to take care of it, you should be fine! Don't overthink it, I'm sure you'll do great!

If the paint bottles say non-toxic you should be fine! Just make sure it's fully dry before introducing your leopard gecko. If you can find a non-toxic acrylic sealer too, that'd help.

A few weeks!

Tysm!

Tysm!

Cool! Mine is a Bold Cross Het Raptor!

It depends on what you're putting in it, I guess. If you plan on using a DHP and a CHE in each slot and the wattage is appropriate than you should be fine as long as you have the proper thermostat. If you plan on using a UVB bulb, I would say no. I'd use a tube bulb that's about 2/3 the length of your tank, preferably T5 as they are way more efficient than T8 bulbs!

@@leopardopediaokay thanks you

@@leopardopedia so i have a 20 gallon tank right now what would you get 50 walts or something else?

@michaelvega824 I'm assuming you're talking about your bulb being 50W? If so, that should be fine, depending on the height, and the type of bulb. Like I said, DHP are one of the best bulbs for them, and as long as you have a good thermostat for it, you can go with higher wattage and it'll stay regulated at a healthy temp. Also, make sure you look into upgrading your tank to something bigger as your Leo grows! A 20 gallon (long) is barely big enough for anything besides a baby or small juvenile!

@@leopardopedia okay thanks and yes that’s what i was thinking with going thank you so much you’ve been a great help

Thank you! Glad I could help! I'm trying to find time to post more!

🤣 Thanks!

That's cool! Very orange!

@@leopardopedia lol yes😂

Thank you!

That's fair enough, they definitely are more fragile!

@@leopardopedia Also great vid!

@@xMaxi_playz I appreciate it! Wish I put a bit more effort into it in hindsight though.

@@leopardopedia no it was still good and your still new to this TH-cam thing you’ll get the hang of it!

@@xMaxi_playz :) I really appreciate it!

Thank you! Let me know if there is anything else you'd like to see!

Thank you! I'm trying to increase the quality of my videos, but don't have much time to make them anymore.

My UVB? It's a repti-riser from etsy! Edit: Here's the link - www.etsy.com/shop/KingsReptiles?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=997719246

@@leopardopedia ah it's not available for my country 😭 Do you think using a small kitchen stainless steel organizer would be okay?

@user-tg4nr2sw3b As long as nothing is blocking the light from the tank (besides the screen top) you should be fine! Just make sure the height corresponds properly with the strength of the bulb! Ferguson Zones: www.aquariumsystems.eu/PBCPPlayer.asp?ID=2128070 Leopard Geckos are a level 1

@@leopardopedia yeah it's a wired organizer, I think it doesn't cover the light that much Thank you for the article!

@@Unknown-u7x8r No problem! Maybe I'll do a video explaining the Ferguson Zones!

Maybe... 😶👉👈 Edit: I cannot believe I just typed that

Thank you! I've been thinking about remaking it with more morphs!

I have the Reptisun T5 5% HO bulb at 24 inches, and the bulb is 22 inches!

@leopardopedia so what did you do with that? Obviously it won't fit being 2 inches short? Lol

@deanjager4341 whoops! I misread your comment haha, if your enclosure is 18" wide, you need a 12 inch bulb. It should be 2/3 the size of the tank!

Thats a common misconception! *Technically*, they can survive without it, but their quality of life will he lower. UVB allows them to process vitamin D3, which then allows them to use the calcium they consume. Without calcium youll see issues like MBD. There are calcium supplements with D3 in them, but most people would rather give their geckos a more natural, and healthy intake as UVB has more benefits than just D3. Please use a UVB bulb! You wouldn't want to just *survive*, right? You'd want to thrive! Do the same for your gecko! Edit: spelling

Hey! Did you ever get your leopard gecko?

no im still trying :(@@leopardopedia

You got this! Leave a comment with any questions you have or anything you'd like me to make a video on! I'm having trouble coming up with some useful content and don't want to keep putting out random stuff, haha!

Ok ill try but this stuff is useful so thx @@leopardopedia

@@Stinger_HAPPY No problem!

Yeah, no problem! This is the site I got mine from! It's the cheapest option I could find that supports both a day and night heat source. It has a dimming feature that is necessary for a Deep Heat Projector: www.snakemuseum.com/reptile-thermostats-timers/2371-thermostat-600w-exo-terra.html

thx @@leopardopedia

I try! Let me know if there is anything else! Or if you have any suggestions for content you'd like to see!@@Stinger_HAPPY

ok @@leopardopedia

will watch again

What were you going to buy specifically?

@@leopardopedia leopard gecko

Ah! Glad I could help! Good luck!@@Stinger_HAPPY

Thanks for the feedback, I'm due to replace my bulb again, so I'll redo it in a shorter format!

@@leopardopedia fair enough 🤟🏼

@Dullpath I hope you got what you needed though!

This is so cool already!
