Hello to anyone who is reading this I recently got a baby leopard gecko named Remy and I’m super nervous but at the same time excited. It’s my first time owning a reptile like this and I don’t want to do anything wrong. Your channel has really helped me of what and what not to do, thank you!
my gecko has 2 facial expressions 1: derp 2: judging the shit out of everything in their sight. i promise its Normal to casually break into song and dance at 3am 😭
Six months back I bought a 2 month old leo, and he's now turning 8 months! I'm also quite young, but I kept him healthy because of this incredibly helpful channel!
Thank you. As someone who also can feel anxious, I personally would worry about my gecko laying out of sight on the heat mat all the time. I know they are nocturnal, but its just more natural seeing them out absorbing/thermor regulating. Don't own a leopard gecko yet, but plan to follow your example. Thanks again.
IN A MONTH IM GONNA GET A LEOPARD GECKO!!!!!!!!!!! 😁😁😁😁😁 GIVE ME A HIGH FIVE!!!!! 👋😁 Edit: apparently I’m not :( Second edit: I got a bird tho Third edit 8 months later: my cockatiel passed away from a concussion at the beginning of November 2020 right before my birthday...
I'm currently building a new terrarium during the lock down, looking forward to get some cresties. Your content really helps during these times , following from spain🇪🇦
@@cringeken5389 Hello, I think you will find they did a review on the pet store "starter kits" that you will see any any big box pet store. Rebecca on this channel has also done several starter kit reviews too. Our complete kits are built up to a standard, not down to a price point and include everything your new pet actually needs, throughout their life, including a suitably sized enclosure, proper UVB lighting, heating, décor, substrates and more.
I've seen Jack and Rainbow both liking their calcium powder, ironically at the same time. I have seen all three of our Gecko's drink from their water dish. I even got lucky enough to Catch Rainbow just as she started shedding and managed to get three large pieces, her tail, back and front. All three have their own tanks.
What’s ur uvb Timer set for? Like what time does it start and end. Cause my buddy is selling me his later in summer due to college. And I want to get my knowledge up fast. And I think the timers is the last thing I need to know.
I have two leopard geckos, the second just joined the family today and it’s only nine grams (not housed together obvi lol) she’s a little pastel yellow gal with a stark white tail
I love your vids! I have a question. Do you know any stores that ship Earthmix Arid outside the UK?I live in the US. I know everyone's on edge because of covid-19 but I've never been able to find any that ship here.
Ahah your videos are fantastic, so glad you're getting support through Patreon and merch during this time 💕 The sudden clip of the boyf scared me 🤣 I was like instant fuzzy arms syndrome? All your recommendations are spot on and it's evident you care for your babies 💕
I got my Leopard Gecko a week ago and his name is Dobby, and I can't thank you enough for making your great videos! it helped me learn alot about Leo's and you helped me learn how to take care of mine and I love him so much, your one of my fav TH-camrs:)
My isopods have had babies. I saw 2 feasting on custodian fuel and that decaying carrot top. Don't know which species but I think they are giant orange ones. *Also* , I named the coconut hide they use "the Tunnel of Love" because it's basically their breeding chamber.
I got a gecko about three months ago, her name is Genesis and she looks just like the first little gecko you showed! She has some orange on her tail which is really cool! Keep up the great work!
Awwww Diego's face just peeping out makes my heart melt he's got such a cute little mischievous looking face 🤣🤣😍😍😍 a few of my Leo's play with their calcium powder as I find it everywere all over their hides and themselves 🤣🤣 especially 1 of my boys tango he is such a buggerlugs he literally puts it everywere then sploots under his dhp covered in calcium 🤣🤣🤣 great video as always 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I don’t recommend leaving calcium in the enclosure, dusting on a schedule is enough www.geckosunlimited.com/community/leopard-geckos-other-eublepharis/67992-leos-having-health-issues-setup-question.html#post387135 www.store.repashy.com/vitamin-and-mineral-supplements-breaking-it-down.html
@@fionashepley478 hes 19 years old and had calcium in his vivarium from a tiny baby so he's fine with it I've kept Leo's for 40 years and all my Leo's have reached over 18 years of age so calcium in an enclosure is fine
I have been watching ur videos for about 1 week now and I absolutely love ur channel I’ve watched u for hours because of quarantine. I’ve been doing loads of research and u have definitely been so helpful. I bought the tank for my the leopard gecko i’m going to get, yesterday and am slowly going to be buying everything for the setup over the spread of about a month and a half so that it spreads out the expenses. I’m super excited for my gecko but I just wanted to say thank u for the informative quality content! Ur such a cool person!
Hey, so I'm thinking of getting a leopard gecko soon. I've taken care of them in the past so I know all the essentials and what not. However, I cannot get a clear answer online regarding what is the best substrate. I'm not gonna use paper towels because it looks awful but sand (even play sand) makes me worried about impaction. Is coconut fibre or eco earth okay? Should I use a feeding dish with walls tall enough that the feeders can't get out so there is no chance of impaction? Any advice is appreciated
Reptisoil, organic top soil (without fertilizer or perlite, Scott’s is a good brand), or a bioactive mix is best over six months. Half textured tile half soil is good as well. They should be offered digging enrichment. They will not get impacted as long as they’ve got the correct temps. It’s safe to feed them on the substrate and enriching to let them hunt.
You are the channel that has helped me with my research! I wanted a Leo so bad two years ago but put it off cause I figured my parents wouldn’t let me and now I can’t stop thinking about getting one! It’s starting to distract me from some of my school work... whoops! I can’t wait to get mine!!!!❤️
I want to ask you about the supplements i use for regular feeding Arcadia calcium pro Mg and in his tank and until now i used the zoomed multivitamin with D3 for every two feedings. I want to try something new i had in mind the repashy calcium plus and the exo terra you have in the video. What is your suggestion among those three or something else?
i watched your channel every day before i got my gecko, i wish yuki was as funny as yours but he just sleeps in his warm hide, he is about 2 now i have had him for ten months, and i am going to start waching you again for quarentine to get me busy! XD love ur vids
I got a leperd gecko and your channel helps me so much !! I needed help with his care and stuff so I looked up leperd gecko care and you came up thanks so much I love you videos
Hello!! I’m considering getting a leopard gecko in September! I’ve been watching all your videos for a few weeks now and i can’t wait to watch more your my favourite TH-camr! And I absolutely love Diego ❤️
what brand/type of light do you use? I was looking to buy one and I want to get the best one because it seems to work for you and I am afraid that it could produce UVC
i never knew, why are some leopard geckos yellow and some that were basically coveted in spots and were brown, are they different breeds? bc i want a yellow one but i'm not sure if they're all the same. thank you!!
I am going to get earth mix arid or terra Sahara from the biodude I was wondering if you can use these bio active substrates in a non bio active tank without a clean up crew btw I will not be using real plants if I do get these either substrate
Yes, you can use them without going bioactive. Although I recommend reptisoil or organic top soil (without fertilizer or perlite, Scott’s is a good brand). They work just as well and top soil is loads cheaper.
Hi, I just got a baby leopard gecko! He has UVB lighting that is on a timer like yours, so my question is what do we dust his food in? Ive read a lot about using uvb lighting and dusting insects, but I have never heard anyone say what they use to dust them. He has calcium in his tank, and we gut load our feeder insects with carrots. He eats every day since he is still a baby
Dust with calcium every other feeding and vitamins every three feedings. You need supplements without d3 when using UVB. It’d be best not to leave calcium in the enclosure. Make sure you’re using a linear/tube UVB bulb, not compact
Hey great channel and very informative videos you have :) . I'm about to get my first leopard and I already have a terrarium that's 45x45x60cm. Are those dimensions going to be a problem since the terrarium is a little bit taller than it is long?
That’d be far more suited for a crested gecko. A leopard gecko requires an enclosure that’s 60x45x30cm, or 75x30x30cm. And that’s bare minimum for an adult. Bigger is much better
Your buddies are so handsome. Really nice enclosures too. I want to get a leopard gecko too but sadly I can't for the time being since I haven't settled down in a permanent house yet. So I am just researching for the past few years and just watching Vids about em and their lives. Your videos have been really helpful, well done and thanks for sharing!
That's a cool name... My first leapard gecko is Robert (after my boyfriend Robert Jay) I love him VERY much but I don't think it's a good name for a leapard... Just got 2 more, Domino and Ming
I've had my gecko Spyro for 3 weeks now and he refuses to come out when the light is on, and 1 time he did walk out he kept his eyes shut. I dont know what to do, I'm worried hes not getting enough d3 :-( I only have pure calcium in his tank. Do you think he will eventually get used to the uvb light? I'm using arcadia shadedweller.
Is he albino? My albino avoided UVB when I tried it with her. Try offering more coverage with branches and fake plants. That way he can partially expose himself to UVB while still hiding and having shade/cover. It’s best not to leave calcium in the enclosure. If he doesn’t start exposing himself to UVB soon you may need to use a supplement with d3.
I’m wondering what i should be feeding my leopard gecko during the lockdown as he doesn’t eat dead crickets and right now he is eating mealworms but i can’t go to the shop to get more, what should i do??
We just got our Leo 3 weeks ago! Your videos have helped us every step of the way. He was so tiny and he's growing very well. Is it to early to let him crawl around on our bed or on our arms? He crawls up my arm from his tank but Idk if I should trust him to go up to my shoulder. I'm afraid he will jump off. Should I just let him do his thing?
You can let him climb on your bed and arms, just be careful that he doesn’t jump off. They can be extremely fast when they want to be, especially if they get spooked
@@fionashepley478 thank you!! I thought I would ask before I let him explore. Some blogs say I have to wait till they're about 3 months old...but I kinda can't wait that long. He's just to cute!!!
I have a question my gecko, Omega is having trouble taking off his shedded skin at the toes. I do what you do in your tutorial but Omega does not seem to lose the skin. Could you please message me what I should do.
Usually I will wait til the end of the day, if it's still light but the geckos are awake, or I'll use my lighting equipment at night, so it's a bit better lit lol
Leopard geckos should never be housed together. Avoid kits. 10 gallons is too small. The bare minimum for an adult is a 20 gallon long, and bigger is ideal.
I’m A very new leopard gecko owner and as quickly trying to learn things that I either never knew about or was unsure or even after I researched them. Do you absolutely need to give leopard geckos calcium powder with their food? Because I’ve never seen anywhere or heard anywhere while trying to learn how to properly take care of my gecko that they need calcium powder on or with their food
As a plumber, I don't reccomend you use tap water no matter what your water supplier states the quality of the water is. Especially if youve had recent work done with copper piping as we use chemical flux to help the solder bind to the metal and that will partially be inside the pipe, plastic pipes i'd say you're somewhat safer with but can never be too sure how the pipelines are maintained in the streets. Safest way to know is know is Ph test ur water for those who are overly paranoid.
Nutritious feeders that can be fed often include crickets, Dubia/discoid/other roaches, silkworms, and black soldier fly larvae. If you live in Europe you have locusts and grasshoppers too. Mealworms and superworms are both fatty and not healthy for their main diet but fine to feed occasionally. They can also have their pupae, and the beetles right after pupating (before they turn black) Hornworms are a healthy treat. Waxworms are a rare treat only. They can also have captive bred isopods as a snack Healthy adults can have an extremely rare frozen thawed pinky mouse once or twice a year
Heyy I'm going to get a Leopard gecko (I watched all your videos and am really informed), but I'm 14. When I"ll move out, I will give them to my siblings (only if I won't be able to take them with me). But after I saw your video " why you shouldn't get a leopard gecko, I'm kinda insecure... Do you think, I should get one?
Good insects for their main diet include live crickets, Dubia and discoid roaches, silkworms, and black soldier fly larvae. They can have superworms and mealworms occasionally, and hornworms are good treats. They need calcium and multivitamins. Dust with calcium every other feeding and vitamins every three feedings. One supplement needs d3 unless you use UVB. Or, to make things easier, use Repashy Calcium Plus (an all in one) every feeding. Make sure you gutload the insects with fruits and veggies
@Aiden Kruse I so insanely sad when I saw. That stream was literally my happy place, I really hope he brings it back. Do you have any idea what happened??
I’m thinking about getting a leopard gecko this week, I have the terrarium and tomorrow I’m getting all the decorations, I was wondering if I should keep the leopard gecko somewhere other than my room so that I don’t disturb it during the day when I talk maybe on Xbox or on FaceTime? Also any tips would be great because this will be my first gecko

He crawls up my arm from his tank but Idk if I should trust him to go up to my shoulder. I'm afraid he will jump off. Should I just let him do his thing?
You can let him climb on your bed and arms, just be careful that he doesn’t jump off. They can be extremely fast when they want to be, especially if they get spooked
@@fionashepley478 thank you!! I thought I would ask before I let him explore. Some blogs say I have to wait till they're about 3 months old...but I kinda can't wait that long. He's just to cute!!!
Just found this channel and it looks pretty good im gonna subscribe
Thank you :)
I didn’t know you had a pet corgi. 🤣❤️❤️
Top 3 foods for Geckos
1. Crickets
2. Mealworms (I feed mine these)
3. Waxworms (not as the main diet though)
they eat lots more
I have a question my gecko, Omega is having trouble taking off his shedded skin at the toes. I do what you do in your tutorial but Omega does not seem to lose the skin. Could you please message me what I should do.
What time do you usually record your videos? Awesome video!
Usually I will wait til the end of the day, if it's still light but the geckos are awake, or I'll use my lighting equipment at night, so it's a bit better lit lol
Ok, Thanks!
Hi I wanted to ask I might be getting a gecko and I've seen a gecko kit which is 10 gallons what's the smallest size I could have for two
Leopard geckos should never be housed together. Avoid kits. 10 gallons is too small. The bare minimum for an adult is a 20 gallon long, and bigger is ideal.
love your channel because of you im going to start posting vids about my gecko on my channel your super helpful
Your account helps me so much I’m getting a leopard gecko on my birthday or 5 months I may be getting a tangerine or Mack snow gecko thank you so much
Gizmo's massive black eyes are mesmerising me every time.
ikr 😍😍
I’m A very new leopard gecko owner and as quickly trying to learn things that I either never knew about or was unsure or even after I researched them. Do you absolutely need to give leopard geckos calcium powder with their food? Because I’ve never seen anywhere or heard anywhere while trying to learn how to properly take care of my gecko that they need calcium powder on or with their food
As a plumber, I don't reccomend you use tap water no matter what your water supplier states the quality of the water is. Especially if youve had recent work done with copper piping as we use chemical flux to help the solder bind to the metal and that will partially be inside the pipe, plastic pipes i'd say you're somewhat safer with but can never be too sure how the pipelines are maintained in the streets. Safest way to know is know is Ph test ur water for those who are overly paranoid.
This might sound like a stupid question but is it necessary to have a uv light in a setup?
Question, if you could name the healthiest leopard gecko food to the unhealthiest what would it be? I kinda want to switch up my bays food choices!
Nutritious feeders that can be fed often include crickets, Dubia/discoid/other roaches, silkworms, and black soldier fly larvae. If you live in Europe you have locusts and grasshoppers too.
Mealworms and superworms are both fatty and not healthy for their main diet but fine to feed occasionally. They can also have their pupae, and the beetles right after pupating (before they turn black)
Hornworms are a healthy treat. Waxworms are a rare treat only.
They can also have captive bred isopods as a snack
Healthy adults can have an extremely rare frozen thawed pinky mouse once or twice a year
I just got my Leo out :)
I got her about 2 weeks ago and she's already very tame
My experience
They are very fun to watch when they go hunting mode and they are amazing curious animal and are very smart for Lil lizard like them
ChriZyourboy 23 I’m thinking of getting one..Do they stay asleep in the day?
Tia Louise depend if it dark or not but you should get a hide for them to rest sometime they active at day and night depend on their personality
Heyy I'm going to get a Leopard gecko (I watched all your videos and am really informed), but I'm 14. When I"ll move out, I will give them to my siblings (only if I won't be able to take them with me). But after I saw your video " why you shouldn't get a leopard gecko, I'm kinda insecure... Do you think, I should get one?
If you have a uvb light, do you put it over the cold side of the tank, or over the hot side
Hot side. Make sure it’s a linear/tube bulb, not compact.
Fiona Shepley thank you
What vitamins and food do I feed them and how do I give it its vitamins thank you 😊
Good insects for their main diet include live crickets, Dubia and discoid roaches, silkworms, and black soldier fly larvae. They can have superworms and mealworms occasionally, and hornworms are good treats. They need calcium and multivitamins. Dust with calcium every other feeding and vitamins every three feedings. One supplement needs d3 unless you use UVB. Or, to make things easier, use Repashy Calcium Plus (an all in one) every feeding. Make sure you gutload the insects with fruits and veggies
Hopefully you don't have one already and are asking these questions 👀
I've never been this early before! Woohoo! (my leo and I love your vids btw
Yay! Thank you!
@@leopardgeckotalk of course!
@Aiden Kruse omg hi!
@Aiden Kruse I so insanely sad when I saw. That stream was literally my happy place, I really hope he brings it back. Do you have any idea what happened??
@Aiden Kruse 💔
Hei, thanks for the video. I would love to hang out in the evening but is it OK to light up the room after his lights are already off?
Yes, although dimmer lighting would be ideal (such as from a bedside lamp).
I’m thinking about getting a leopard gecko this week, I have the terrarium and tomorrow I’m getting all the decorations, I was wondering if I should keep the leopard gecko somewhere other than my room so that I don’t disturb it during the day when I talk maybe on Xbox or on FaceTime? Also any tips would be great because this will be my first gecko
Awww gizmo is sooo cute!!!!😘😍😍😍
Next week I’m getting two leopard geckos!🥰🥰😊
Super cool merch!
