Geo the Leo nah 50 leopard geckos liked the video XD

That’s honestly what I was just about to say XD

Bro that's smart

I also do something like this, I just have my paper towel underneath it and I extend it over the substrate in the area she usually goes to the bathroom

I purchased little Gecko Litter trays on Etsy, and both my Geckos use them☺️🥰 it makes it so easy to keep their tank clean. Its a little 3D printed plastic square with a low rim, and they use it as a toilet everytime🙈💩 such good boys

Emma H same but mine just does the top of his

Animal Journey lol. He also opens his mouth really wide as if he’s trying to prove to me that he actually eats his food.

Mine used to do that too 😹😹

Emma H same with my gecko yoshi. He leaps at the food after

My favorite thing!

Hello, At what size can gecko eat Dubia roachs? They seem to be too large for my gecko which is about 5 weeks old. Thank you.

You can buy them as nymphs online and they are a great size for a baby. My boy has been on them and mealworms since he was 13g (he now weighs 40g) and he loves them. Dubias grow slowly so its fine to buy a big batch of babies as they will pretty much grow with the Gecko in size. Follow Rebecca's tip of making sure the roach is not bigger then the gap between your Gecko's eyes and you will do fine - they are nice and soft so so easy to munch on. In the last month I've gotten hold of some adults and have started breeding my own Dubias (just a small colony). Really easy to look after and feed, they just need a little extra warmth.

good tip :) though i found my dubias were expert at turning over even on flat surfaces lol

cermet as in jenna marbles cermet? lol love him :')

aw thanks :')

Just Mac omg same! Luckily I got it out of his mouth before he ate it!

omg yes! im always worried if they decide to go wandering off near my hair, im like dont eat it! lol

Omg I never thought about this 😨

I get worried when they're on my bed, because my gecko hezekiah licks everything, and hes picked up some of my hair before, luckily I have short hair, and I always take it away from him

Lol

Lol

Lol

That's ear-itating!

Lol

I changed my substrate to eco earth back in April because of this channel, and my geckos are loving it :)

I changed mine to slate and sand My gecko digs it Its name is Fred/Fredrica.

ah nice :D

I'm changing mine to eco earth real soon I'm just waiting for my heatpad and thermostat to come in, I'm getting them on Amazon as a pack for 26.00 I believe. I'm also upgrading her tank size so my nami is getting a brand new home with everything. I got her with a 10 gallon long and I was just not happy with that so as soon as I could I was changing it. And its finally happening✌

@@fredh5414 sand noway !

You wont regret it, they are some of the cutest and sweetest animals

aw no problem haha yeah its kind of creepy but kind of cool :')

Woah 23 years that’s so neat

Chloe Leavitt I have a terrible system when it comes to crickets I let one out then I chase it around my room and often it jumps on me

I don’t really mind them, unless they escape.

RELATABLE

honestly me too it was the biggest thing keeping me from getting a leopard gecko because the crickets scared the life out of me lmao

@@e.d.7428 one jumped in my shower while I was showering

aww im glad i could help :)

aww thank you :) I know some people feed chameleons that way, but sort of hang it in a branch, thought i'd just try it led down one day and it worked :)

aww thank you :)

Leopard Gecko TY FOR REPLYING💖💖 ilysm

aww thanks so much :)

Cm Macktwin what is this supposed to do

Keep your crickets alive and it is way cheaper than a cricket keeper and those are to small for the crickets.

The kritter keepers come in different sizes....(I agree though the black cricket keeper w/the tube etc is a bit too small). I have 2 kritter keepers that my crickets go into, one is a med size and the other is large. The medium sized one was around $5 (US) and the large was maybe $7?

aww thanks, good luck with your new gecko :)

aw thanks :D good luck!

yeah i may do that in the near future :)

yep lol and not sure

aww thank you Ethan :)

no problem :)

aww thank you sophia, sorry to hear about your gecko, never easy when things like that happens.

The Tester gg I don’t exactly understand what your saying, but you could feed your gecko with tongs or tweezers so you don’t have to touch them but you are still bonding.

The Tester gg I would just use a short pair of tweezers so they still see you and smell you but they also get more comfortable with you as you do it more.

Same I'm like idk why but scared of mealworms and can't touch crickets

Dont get a gecko if you are scared of bugs

Izabella Harms it not really a fear of crickets it's just I was raised with don't touch bugs there gross and with the mealworms I can push past it some times same with the crickets

haha :)

awesome :) hmm maybe, i just dont have as much experience with fat tails, so thats why i left that vid like that :)

Lung infection

Don't buy from those ppl again

bruh, complain to the company and demand a refund, apoligy, and\or free gecko

They only take returns in the frist 7 days

Beachwolf Draws well you need tell them the situation and hopefully get your money back because they did you dirty, where did you get it from?

gizmo hasnt quite mastered chewing with your mouth closed.

Hi

aw thank you :)

thanks :)

hey

yeah they're cool, but i must admit i do prefer our four legged friends.

They won’t. Just don’t use them as their main diet.

aw perfect! thanks :D

haha thanks :) i try to upload every 4 days :')

That sounds great!!

thank you :)

Make sure they’re housed separately :)

haha no problem :)

That’s awesome! Just be careful when walking with her on your shoulders, she could easily fall off and get hurt.

@@fionashepley478 trust me i know, im gonna get her a small harness thats soft on her skin to keep her from falling

sebacookie halloween harnesses aren’t safe for leos, their bones are too fragile.

@@fionashepley478 oh really, thanks for telling me

aw no problem, hope it helps :)

no problem :)

thanks :D

good luck :)

thanks :)

they are rather cute :)

ah thats a good idea, though i feel my geckos would try to eat them through the glass haha

ah nice, i found my mealworms would always escape lol

Leopard Gecko believe me one did try and I was having none of it, after checking her tank whilst cleaning there were no mealworms that had escaped apart from the one I lost with the tongs 😂😂😂 so that bowl is doing well for now. I’m hoping to get another leo so the food doesn’t die off or pupate too quick before feeding, with this heat the feeders have been a pain

SAMEEEE

aww no problem :) good luck!

Thank you

aww yeah they remind me of mini scaly cats when they do that

do you mean the drawers?

aw glad to help :)
