I GOT ANOTHER DREAM TURTLE! SETUP + PICKUP | BLACK-BREASTED LEAF TURTLE UPDATE 

I'm genuinely so lucky that I was able to find another male black-breasted leaf turtle (Geoemyda spengleri)! Remember to answer today's Q of the D (he needs a great name)! For more information on supporting my animals/RU-vid channel, unlocking fun perks, and chatting with me directly, check out www.patreon.com/Reptiliatus!

I am very much on board with everyone else suggesting to stay with the Land before time theme, and I think Spike is the most fitting name for him. He seems so derpy but also so gentle.

QOTD: IDK why but he reminds me of Spike from the Little Foot movies. Just so soft but shy

Oh my gosh the successful substrate transfer was SO satisfying to watch 🙌🏼

QOTD: Perhaps a name like Oak or Maple would fit with his stunning fall leaf coloring.

Excellent video buddy. You’ll have that group dialed in before you know it with fertile eggs. Now, come to NJ so we can have a turtle adventure. 👌🏻

In theme with Land Before Time, I suggest Spike or Ducky

I think your animals are so beautiful and so well cared for ❤❤ someone commented that Gizmo would be a great name and i agree!! One day i would like a small tortis or turtle. ❤

I love your show I never realized how cool turtles are as well as how fun they are. Their eyes pretty much tell you what's on their mind. So much expression, they have made the reptile family much more friendly. Love Em.

He is adorable, but most tortoises and turtles are adorable to me, and yep getting that time of your for their winter snooze. I know our 5 tortoises are getting slower by they day. lol I think a great name for him would be chomper. At least that’s what he looks like to me. 🤷‍♀️ Tfs ❤

I gasped so loud when he picked all that substrate up I'm one go I was shook I never get my plants to do that satisfying❤ I like the name Chompers

I’m very envious of you right now 😂 SO awesome!

Leaf Turtles are so derpy and cute, I love them! Maybe since he likes fruit so much you should name him Flint, like Flintstone Fruity Pebbles.

Good luck with the eggs! I wanna see a baby soooo badly. They sure are oblong for turtle eggs. I love this species so much.

I agree with everyone suggesting Spike for a name. Sticking with The Land Before Time theme is awesome. All of my reptiles pretty much have a name from a favourite character or something that just really suits them, like my crestie Stucko. She was found on the ceiling as a hatchling, on the complete opposite side of the room the tank was on. If I were to get a chelonian, I'd probably get a black breasted leaf turtle or a pink bellied side neck turtle. We have 3 at my work and they are the funniest things ever and so entertaining

I’m jealous of Spike, that raspberry looks delicious! 😆

Welcome, new cute turtle. I don't really have a name suggestion, but read through the comments and liked e.g. Chomper (and gave some comments also a like :) ). Good luck for successful future breeding and that there may be a baby in one of those eggs. Sleep well in hybernation, all turtles. 🐢🍀🍀

I appreciate that root structure holding all that substrate together too! People here in the Okanagan built their houses on bare sand cliffs, and those cliffs don’t have much greenery, so they’re coming tumbling down! I’m waiting for a house on one of those sand cliffs to go next! QOTD, yup love the land of time theme! Can’t remember if you have a Pete and Spike would be good too!! ET says “yoink! Gimme!” One of my dragons are already down for the count, I miss him already!!

I like the land before time names, and the new turtle is very cute. But ET remains the most hilarious animal of ALL TIME

My name suggestions are Chomper, Spike, and Pete(since you already have a Petrie) to keep with the land before time theme 😊 Can we also have the name of the female that he's going to be paired with so we can have a similar name that goes with her? Unless you rotate them for breeding? I'm not sure how you go about pairing them. I think it'd be really cute to have a Pete and Petrie ❤

My experience with Eurydactylodes eggs is that they do much better in the parents' bioactive substrate. Mainly I find that the momma gecko knows what she's doing and picks a spot with good humidity and protection. Another big part though might be the isopods in the tank. The eggs I leave in the tank never get a speck of mold and once I actually put one in that I'd been incubating externally that developed a bit of mold, and they cleaned it off but left the egg intact. I do make sure to always have pieces of cuttlebone in the tank too so that the isopods always have an easy source of calcium (and hopefully won't go for the yummy calcified eggshells.)

Name suggestions is gizmo

They are so cute, their eyes look like those glue on eyes.

Name him Spike! Name him Spike! Name him Spike!

I want to see a baby leaf turtle on this channel 😭❤️

qotd: my name suggestion for the new turtle is "Philodendron furcatum" or Phil for short also those eggs look HUGE for the size of turtle!

Pumpkin is the perfect name for your new turtle

Qotd: I like Gamera lol the Kaiju are part of why I got interested in reptiles as a kid

Too adorable. This will be my favorite turtle to research and possibly own. Thank you, thank you

It's really unfortunate that 2 out of the 3 eggs laid went bad :( but super interesting that the isopods cleaned the remaining egg of mold and it's showing signs that it's still a good egg and developing! How close is the remaining egg to the estimated hatch date? With how large the eggs are I'm assuming they only lay 1-2 eggs per season? Can they double clutch? These are fascinating turtles. I'm hoping that in the coming year autumn will put on some growth and decide to breed with her 3 eligible bachelor's! And fingers crossed for successful eggs from Yoda and Petrie next season! It's truly amazing to see and thank you for sharing it with us!

Well, in captive the incubation time has been reported being even 135 days, so they can take a long time.

He looks like a Buster to me. But Spike would work too. Love these little guys.

I gave some of my animals night crawlers for the first time today, and I’d say they were a hit, especially with the Cuban false chameleon

Wall-E would be cute!

I really know very little about breeding Turtles or about this species in particular, but I have general animal behavioral background, enough to trust my Intuition or to speak my intuition to other folks that do similar. I noticed as far as Autumn goes that you put the male in with her and she instantly reacted negatively. Maybe try putting her in the male's enclosure or try setting up a much larger enclosure to pair them up in. It will be a situation where she could get away if she'd want to and if you made it a neutral space but neither of them lived in regularly it might help. You could put their normal bins one on either side of the larger one and give it time for them to get used to the smells and then put them in the middle preferably an enclosure that was at least three times this amount of floor space than your regular setups. I get that they don't need a lot of space but you are enclosures are actually quite small and I wonder if she feels cornered without inviting somebody in or something like that . I've seen this with some of my breeding efforts that the females keep a home territory and the males roam around. Just some thoughts.

Please make an adult Pacman frog care video!

I love autumn she’s so funny she does not like those boysssss 😂

I can't wait to be able to get my own blackbreasted leaf turtles some day soon.

I love these guys.

Great close ups of them eating!

Hello great video information Dayyan

Maybe Rowan, like the tree 🍂 Or maybe Cong, short for Viet Cong, my Rhino rat snake is named that! 🐍

Qotd: Moopsy. Cutest alien ever.

You don't have any turtles named Oogway yet, do you? A wise kung fu master would be a great addition with those other names! :)

Oogway is the turtle from the movie kung fu panda. That is my vote for a name

great video

I wonder if those plastic bins are purposely made to deteriorate under the sunlight’s natural UV rays outdoors in landfills(?) 🤔 *Geoemyda spengleri is (one of) my “bucket list” species. I would name it Mr/Ms Magoo* *Because... those eyes!* 👁 👁 😂

CHOMPER! ( like the little T-Rex from Land Before Time and because thats who he looked like when he was trying to eat that raspberry 😂)

The tortises are so handsome.

I'm so happy to see someone breed this amazing species! Geoemyda spengleri is one of my absolute favorite turtle species and for sure one of my dream pets to own! Sadly they're not only super rare but also super expensive over here in germany/europe. 😩 If you don't mind me asking, how much do they go for in canada regularly? Your new male is gorgeous and handsome boy, congrats on getting him! Also all the good luck for breeding them, fingers crossed for you! 😊

I think he looks like a Boba Fett. Since you already have a Yoda it seemed fitting. 😊

Toby for the gorgeous new boy. 🐢

Awesome🎉

Q.O.T.D- you could name him Elliot to go along with E.T. Soon as I think of that name I just think of E.T's voice saying it lol. If not definitely T.L.B.T theme as others have suggested- spike sounds good but honestly ita probably a pretty common name , bc of T.L.B.T or b/c basically every reptile has some sort of spikes etc. Thanks for sharing these, amazing little creatures! I have those same bins and mine don't do that. Maybe it's from the uvb/ heat if you use heat 4 these guys bc I believe they like it cooler? Idk if that makes sense but just thinking bc the sun does make plastic and other materials brittle so maybe it's doing that sorta thing w the bins? Just a thought. Hope 2 see an update on these guys prior to their brumation or maybe a mixed video so you only have 2 do one video on them? Do you dust any of their food or anything? Btw: why is yoda a girl? Maybe you thought it was originally thought a boy? Maybe try different incubation mediums? Also, try with isopods or springtails? Maybe its the springtails? Idk sry for all of the questions. Just wondering.Have a great day

Beautiful turtles ❤ he looks like a Leon

Elliot. Because you have an E.T. you have to have an Elliot! 😂😊

Lil dude looks like a Petri, like from Land Before Time lol Edit: Just got to the others names... lol Glad I wasn't crazy! Still really cool critters!

idk why but I immediately thought of Ferb or Perry (from the show Phineas & Ferb). Silly but cute.

Loved the video. For a name of Snickers

i love your videos

Anguirus my favorite kaiju

Ferdinand!

QOTD: Ludo, like the big friendly monster from Labyrinth ☺️

Ducky is a cute name.

Spike is a good name for him

So you’ve got Little Foot and Petrie from Land Before Time, E.T. and Yoda that are alien like movie creatures, then Autumn and..... October? Toby for short

Actually, I take that back, he looks like a “Goose” to me :) Although Spike would also be great!

QOTD: If you want The Land Before Time names, then perhaps Archie? Archie was a somewhat minor character in the TLBT IV. He was an Archelon. Otherwise, perhaps Torterra? Otherwise, maybe Shuckle since he took to berries so enthusiastically, haha! I can't help but consider Pokemon names, haha. He's ADORABLE, though! Love him already. He has such cute little eyes!

Don Juan 💗 sounds good,it just rolls of your tongue 😜.

Also keeping with Land Before Time, how about Tree Star?

Hiya, my son's suggestion is Squirtle🐢 or Shredder after he tore into that raspberry 😀.

So what size tub is that you are keeping them in? What kind of heating are you using?

Love these turtles. Maybe one day or maybe one day I'll find another desert ornate box turtle male for my female.

For a name suggestion, what about Geo (as in Geoemyda Spengleri)?

Maple or Harvest. Kind of sticking with an Autumn or Fall description.

Congratulations on the new male and how about the name Barry? 🙂👍🐢

I would like to know where you got the metal sheving from..I hail from the UK ❤ your videos so informative and very interesting

Spike!

QotD: Based on this video, how about... Victor (small victories) or Barry? (Raspberry)

Hi my suggestion name is “Gizmo” for these big eyes

You have a Yoda so his freind should be Chewbacca x

Can this turtle live with any fish in garden pond? Any UV light bulb require?

Name him Cowboy! 👍🏼👍🏼

What light do you use for plants? 🤔 I need suggestions lol

My name suggestion is Grogu.

GIZMO❤

QOTD: my name suggestion is Nepomuk, like the half-dragon in "Jim Button and Luke the Engine Driver" (i actually don't know how well know it is in canada or the US)

Hey if Isopods clean eggs, why isn’t it standard to incubate eggs with isopods? Wouldn’t it help prevent mold?

I think Name should be Raz!! Or Berry!! Because he likes the raspberries and the red and blue spots on the shell

What would be a great beginner pet in your opinion I really want a reptile but don’t know where to start

QOTD: Toothless

Looks like the new one was previous kept a lit le too dry. Tkae good care of him

Berry

Bond, James Bond

Maybe Sheldon?

Ortho, he is cute.

Qotd Mango

Since you have Yoda and E.T. why not Quark?

How about litterbug. Leaflitter and bug, cuz they're small :)

Name him Pepper!
