@@gavvy057 omg, yes. Years ago i spent 2 nights at a resort in Thailand, and never knew they were there until the last day. 2 under the bed and 1 behind the mirror. They were very quiet.
The bloopers 😂 I would've had the same reaction! Also I love your enclosure and willingness to work with her! Most people give them small bare setups and give up on them so soon after getting their "mean" impulse pet. It's nice to see a tokay getting proper appreciation :)
Omg I feel like I would NEVER get used to that bark!! It's so startling! I'd like to think someday I could own a Tokay, but I'm also a big baby when it comes to being startled, so maybe not LOL. I'll just watch your videos and admire from afar! Your progress with Dahlia is so inspiring, though!!
Snowy Whister where would you get one? I found one today and I really don’t think we have wild tokay geckos here where I live so I’m like where did you come from? I loves him but I’m not ready for one so I’m about to give him to a reptile rescue. but I kind would be interested in the future.
I got my tokay as ayearling (maybe slightly less), and she was one of the sweetest geckos in the cage. She did not bite the man who took her out. I have gotten nipped at a couple times since then, and yes, it’s quite startling, I don’t think it’s possible for me to not flinch, but I love her and wouldn’t trade her for any other reptile or amphibian. I hold her maybe 3 or 4 times a week and that has calmed her down so much that she’s similar to a tame leopard gecko. She doesn’t run away when I try to pick her up, and when she gets annoyed she just jumps onto something, or maybe crawls to a darker area. I feel bad assist feeding her mealworms (she eats crickets and doesn’t think of mealworms as food but I’d like to switch over to a mealworm AND cricket diet), she always barks a little bit when I do it because obviously she’s confused, but other than that she’s a quiet, tame little lady!
Love the gecko and the enclosure. It’s great when you see a tokay in such a big terrarium! I’d only upgrade the setup to a bio active one, but I’m biased because I love the look of natural setups. Good luck handling that tokay.
I think I work the show you are talking about with the guy that has the tokay. Its massive and a complete sweetheart. He also told me it took about 7 or 8 years.
Wonderful video! I was so pleased by this. Keeping tokays myself I found your information spot on. You have taken the time to work with your animal. You have learned to read the animals body language. Most importantly you have shared that information. Thank you so much! And a huge thanks for supporting C.B.!!
Great video! I'm pretty much where you are with your Tokay gecko. My tokay will tolerate very little handling. So far this is the only reptile i've ever had that would not "tame down" / tolerate being handled. As soon as I have all the nooks & cranes secured my reptile room i'm going to try a new tactic. I'm going to close the doors in the reptile room and open the enclosure. Take the gecko out of its enclosure. Put it down somewhere in the reptile room, and let it do whatever it wants until it wants to show itself back into its enclosure. Repeat this more than a few times. That way MAYBE it will become more comfortable around me, and in time i will slowly try to interact with it. haha!! Well see how this will actually go haha!! Either way it should be fun. :)
I think that you're great! So brave too. Some animals are not for the feint of heart. I also welcome that, maybe it's in someone who likes a challenge. I've had rescue birds that would bite my hands/face and I'd go back for more. Embrace the fact that you're a rare type and approach animals with the personality type of "Do your worst!". Good for you! I have the most tame potato type crested gecko. I gently permeated some of my warm breath under him to warm him one evening and he freaked. Totally unnatural for his extremely laid back personality, and he was really unsure. Eventually I desensitized him to the feeling eventually (six months) he didn't respond at all. Success! I realize were talking about an exceptionally tame crested gecko with a hang up and a Tokay. As far as I've seen you've made a lot of progress with her since you've "taken her in". Pushing boundaries is all part of taming with any species. It's all about trying again another day and desensitization, working very slowly. I see that you acknowledge that too. Great job and keep up the amazing work!
I have a male and female Tokay and I just used my hands for the most part. They kept biting me for a week and then realized I didn’t care. If you show fear they see that and feel like biting will empower them. As of today I just take them out and the Female barks but doesn’t bite. The Male is pretty cool and doesn’t bark ever 😎
Pepperoni_Picca Gaming every animal has bacteria in its mouth. Do you know that cat bites are the most dangerous domesticated animal bites? That’s why you wash your hands and clean the wound. 🙄 it’s novel, I know.
I bought one and the tallest enclosure they had was a 12x12x20. I got the following -Zoo med 40w nano dome lamp fixture (3.5 inch dome) -40w Zoo med nano basking spot lamp (it says daylight, heat, and basking on the front of it) -loose coconut fiber substrate -moss -water bowl -wood for clumping -plastic plants The store employee told me that enclosure would be big enough. And he also told me to set the heat lamp on top of the wire mesh of the enclosure. I did that and I smell something funny. Not sure if the ceramic has to burn off or what. It’s odd that I have to put the lamp on top of the mesh. Does this sound right? Amazing video Subbed and liked of course I appreciate all of the information It’s a juvenile is what they told me. Male. Subbed and liked! I just got my first lizard and it’s a tokay gecko. I thought I could just have it in my house. I keep my house at 67-70 degrees F. I bought a heat lamp for the gecko but I know I’m only supposed to have that on for 8 hours. What do you recommend I do for the other time so that he isn’t too cold?
Bribe them with seeds. Believe it or not they don’t eat them but they find them extremely interesting for some reason like it’s cat nip they’ll start rubbing their face in it and sniffing it like it’s cat nip. Really weird but it’s worked somehow
love this video! i really want to get a tokay, they're such a cool and underrated species! i've been trying to find videos on how to get them used to handling (i'd prefer to be able to handle mine for enclosure maintenance and such, makes everthing easier lol) so the timing of this video is perfect :-)
i have a CB male and female. Got them at a month old, they are a year old now. They tolerate me handling them and picking them up but are by no means comfortable being handled. They will just sit on my shoulder for the most part if I don't breathe on them or move too quickly though. It is a long slow road.
Aww! It's amazing to see a tokay getting proper love! Dahlia is a lovely girl and her set up is SO NICE! I just got my first tokay recently and can't wait to give my guy a really nice permanent enclosure after his quarantine! If you don't mind me asking, is Dahlia captive bred and where did you purchase her from? Thanks!
I’m getting my tokay this week! I’m only 12... I’ve been begging for one for 5 years I’ve done all my research I think they are beautiful! I can’t wait
When I got my first Tokay, i wanted captive bred, cause I love to handle my beauties! The pet store had no idea if she was captive or wild caught, but I got her anyway. She didnt eat for a month, it was scary.. Soon she started tong feeding, and she jumped onto my hand and ran out and I was freaked on grabbing her! An hour later finally got her back in her enclosure. Soon enough I started hand handling (without a glove I'm ballsy), when I first go in she will do a huff, I'll give her a slow gentle pet and then pick her up. Tonight I was able to do a half our session with her hanging out on my bed! So proud, but she hates my bf. He thinks she "smells his fear" lmao. Love your video 😁 Beautiful Tokay!
My tokay is arriving tomorrow and I cannot wait. I'm so glad you are a good reptile owner and enthusiast, most girls on here are "omg look I have reptiles, I'm so cool" 🙄 lol this is a great video. Keep up the amazing work!
I'm lucky my tokay is on the calmer side I do walk around with her on my shoulder( and even on my head sometimes XD) when I watch videos of angry tokay and people saying that they are soooo aggressive I just can't relate
I would reccomend researching them to understand them better. They'll never bite out of aggression, just when they feel threatened and become defensive. Their bites are also not as bad as people say, I would much rather be bit by a tokay than a dog or cat 😅 Lastly, I would suggest observing one while it's relaxed in an enclosure to get a better understanding of their overall demeanor
Good job , not an easy thing to do there! Been bit so many times from wild and captive. You have to start the process early and consistent. Most keepers give up ( blood and skin) before they get even started.
One of them entered my room and it just stayed here. I cant get the big guy out and everytime it does it's call I get startled. Its a problem right now since whenever I sleep I woke up in cold sweat whenever it says it's tokay sound, Im afraid it might fall off to me and bit me lol.
I'm considering trying to get a tokay. I want to know if I could manage to 'train' a tokay to be affectionate, or as much as one could be, and train multiple, breed them, breed the babies, (Not siblings, it have like 8 tokay geckos and I'd individually train them all) so I can create calmer, more affectionate tokay geckos. I absolutely love Tokay geckos, and I find that they are underrated, and I want to own a gecko that loves me. (Other than the leopard gecko, they're already very affectionate, I just wanna make people like Tokay geckos more.)
Tokays are naturally pretty defensive, so even if the parents tolerate handling the babies would still need to be taught that human hands are not a threat. Consistent positive interaction is key 😊
Does she meditate or attend yoga seminars to remain calm? It’s possible that she is just a reptile that is only going to live for about 8 years tops and assumes instinctually that a larger animal such as a human is going to eat her, which if you consider how long we have been aware of such basic things such as the roundness of the planet, and all of the indigenous cultures that had been living in central and South America who consumed iguana and other new world iguanids as part of their diet, I’m sure the Tokay are still pretty much assuming that humans will eat them - - I mean it was the Spanish who also conquered the Philippines where they are known to rent apartments - or cages, rather.
Wow .. amazing and brave..not to mention tenacious.. wonder why thier temperment is so bad ? Especially for such a gorgeous specimen. For sure I will go for a captive-bred Tokay..thanks for the heads up Anyway nice job...I subbed & liked
@@therealshino4607 cool...I like the max snow with high contrast..there are so many paint jobs to choose from...and I am new to the hobby how about you bud
They are very afraid and it's a total freeze, fight or flight response. Imagine if you were about the size of your shoe and things the size of skyscrapers had huge eyes that you could not read expression on locked the eyes on you, bent over you and reached super long arms after you to grab you then held you close to those huge eyes. It's possible that you'd choose biting, kicking and screaming and threatening behaviors too to get your feet back on the ground when your survival instinct kicks in and you'll do anything to feel safe again.
Hi I live in Thailand and I like calling them Gecko than (ตุ๊กแก) Tokay. Gecko just sound nicer. Although is the same thing. I used to found them on the wall out back of the house. I'm sure they are beautiful in their own ways but I'm still scare of them. When seeing them in videos like this, I thought, oh they're not so bad or scary. Kinda cute. In reality, I still avoid them.
I can not find any captive bred ones in my area!!!!! I’m looking and even online I’m having a hard time! If anyone knows any websites please let me know, I’m looking for any morph other than the most common yellow and orange spotted one
does anyone have experiences operant/classical conditioning of tokays? i've never trained a reptile so i rly can't tell how well they'd respond to marker noises and treats. technically it should work w any animal but practically, i am guessing these are just too scared to get a learning process going. (i've trained birds before but they are a great deal smarter and cooperative in nature..)
I tried it but only for a couple of weeks. But in my experiences reptiles are not too good with it. The only idea might just be "oh there's a sound, better poke head out for food" or not responsive at all

Yeah, no they are easily skiddish geckos
Just get a Leopard Gecko or an African Fat-Tailed gecko
Or even a Crested gecko or Madagascar day gecko
If you get a CB baby they aren't that
bad. Most adults sold are wild caught.

I've always done that with reptiles, why does nobody do it? I think it's probably because people are being pussies if i'm being completely honest.
Say that their bite isn't painful and ill gladly take off my gecko by my hands :)

Amazing enclosure.
My father captured one whos living in a tree beside our house...
From philippines yeyyyy
I have a phobia in tokay geckos and I really want to overcome it since I'll be entering vet school this september. Any advice? Thank you

How big is your terrarium? I'm thinking of buying 2.
Good job , not an easy thing to do there! Been bit so many times from wild and captive. You have to start the process early and consistent. Most keepers give up ( blood and skin) before they get even started.
Can we see a care guide/tank setup for your tokay
I think dipping the insects in pangea helped with taming my tokay. I've had him for about 6 years now. he doesnt like being handled but tolerates it
egg man
I don’t know how I’m afraid of my tokay but not my aggressive green iguana, snapping turtle, water monitor and caiman
Panned audio? Only on left ear aha :P
Be honnest, how many hand surgeries ?
One of them entered my room and it just stayed here. I cant get the big guy out and everytime it does it's call I get startled. Its a problem right now since whenever I sleep I woke up in cold sweat whenever it says it's tokay sound, Im afraid it might fall off to me and bit me lol.
Another huge way to get it used to you is tong feeding.

Make more videos 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yep their mouths are black & pink 🙂 working on a new tokay video today, thanks for watching!
How do u afford the exo terra tanks
Adrian Ajencu they’re significantly cheaper at reptile shows. Usually at least by $100 from what I’ve seen.
does anyone have experiences operant/classical conditioning of tokays? i've never trained a reptile so i rly can't tell how well they'd respond to marker noises and treats. technically it should work w any animal but practically, i am guessing these are just too scared to get a learning process going.
