Rune's new cage is as natural as possible while still being a healthy setup that meets all the needs of a leopard gecko! What do you guys think? p.s. If you're wondering, I didn't add any thermometers because I check the temps regularly with a digital temp gun. ;) Don't forget about the new merch! ► teespring.com/goldfishgurumerch

Hi im planning to get a hermit crab i know its going to be a challenge but i was wondering if you know what substrate works best

@dracumaura 6 лет назад

MissC 101 MissC 101 you shouldn't own hermit crabs at all because they're all wild caught animals and it's just not good to own them, they can get kinda big and they're social creatures so you'll need more than one ,which means an even bigger encloursure. the entire hermit crab trade is kimd od a bad scene :// it's really not recommended that you own hermit crabs, but if you really do want one and believe you can take care of them correctly, just do a ton of research before, look at multiple sources and try to find trustworthy sources, like someone who has owned them and done well with them for a long time.

Solid Gold Aquatics you should have made it bioactive so it will clean the tank for you after it gets established

@badrinathjagannathan3793 6 лет назад

Solid Gold Aquatics Amazing! Could you please give an update on the pond and your wakin & watonai’s

@breezexotics 6 лет назад

Solid Gold Aquatics hey Jenny! I've tried Eco Earth out with my Leo for about 9 months now and I really don't recommend it! It's a very dusty substrate and I found it blocked her nose and the fibers would often get caught in her mouth when catching crickets. However, about 2 months ago I switched to Arcadia Earthmix Arid which is a fantastic all natural substrate that has no dust and can actually be healthy for the gecko to digest accidentally! It's also capable of growing plants like succulents. Toss in a few dermestid and darkling beetles and youll have a really nice bioactive tank that the leos will enjoy! This is how I did mine and they adore the substrate to dig much more active with better sheds. Hope this helps!

I was actually thinking about you and am so happy once she actually did mention your channel! :D It's *the* place to go for all your Leo gecko questions/needs!

@aliciah2758 6 лет назад

I love the relationship you have with Sylvia. How she peaks her head out of her hide when you get close and open her cage is the cutest thing ever. :)

@lilmisstrouble85 6 лет назад

One video i would love to see is a realistic video on the costs of purchasing and maintaining healthy pets so that the inexperienced subscribers can get a really good feel for what they are getting into should they also choose to purchase a lg or keep a healthy tank. I see lots of videos on feeding all the pets or room tours but i never see anyone talk about the upkeep costs and since i work in a pet store i see first hand how many people dont know the actual costs and then they tend to try and cut corners to keep costs down which isnt good for the pets. Otherwise i love the information

@megkucera174 6 лет назад

Broken Toy yes please

@cmcmillan22 6 лет назад

its because upkeep costs and even supplies very dramatically from region to region. same reason you don't see people talking about it with fish. even hard goods vary dramatically. for example those exoterra vivs are 60% more in Canada than in the US.

@maddiemainer 6 лет назад

I keep almost all of my receipts regarding pet related purchases and holy crap it’s a lot of money

@lilmisstrouble85 6 лет назад

Cody McMillan i hear that but there is an average price range and you can always state "in my local city ... Costs are this...which may vary"

@cmcmillan22 6 лет назад

well the problem is a lot of it is sponsored too, and you don't need a $175 exo-terra vivarium to maintain a healthy pet. a petco $30 29g long is plenty and a under-mat heater with some paper towl, 2 hides and a water dish. I personally don't see the value in it. explain their needs and let the pet owner decided what he/she wants to do.

@jackhearn0633 4 года назад

Legit the perfect set up 1. Plants 2. Eco earth 3. Background 4. All rock style hides 5. That wood piece. Nice job👏🙌

@killab5505 6 лет назад

Jennie, you know I love your videos. From all the science to the high level animal husbandry; you own this. I am constantly inspired by your love of animals, and it just plain makes me feel less weird for having 10 fish tanks, two cats, one human, and an unending supply of conversations with any bug, bird, or rando nonhuman I see. Don't worry the actual human is my roommate. Nothing devious people. As always thank you for continuing to be delightfully weird and showing people that if they choose to take on a pet... any pet, it is their responsibility to care for them and ensure a happiness in their new habitat. You're the best my friend. Keep up all the wonderful work you're doing! I can't wait to see what you do for Sylvia!

@TheTurtleGirl 6 лет назад

Your jelly what flavor?

@cadenryan7672 6 лет назад

I use eco earth for my leopard gecko and he loves it! he actually has a little hole that he dug in the substrate and he actually uses it as a hide! but don’t worry he has to other hides that I put it the terrarium. I’ve never seen anything like this in leos behavior wise, but I think it’s pretty cool! love you’re videos ❤️

I love Leopard Gecko's RU-vid channel! So glad you shouted her out

@dracumaura 6 лет назад

in your humid hide, you should also add some moss or damp paper towels ,just to help with shedding a little bit more ,with the moss they can rub against it to help get the shed off. it'll also just keep it more humid :-)

@poeticfelony 6 лет назад

spheremint I switched from paper towels to echo earth in my gecko's moist hide after she mistook the paper towel for her skin and ate it!

@dracumaura 6 лет назад

@yva1118yva 6 лет назад

finally, someone has a lavender!!! he looks just like Figaro, although Fig has a Zorro bandit nose & has the lavender inside lateral stripes instead of spots on the back, like a bold stripe. the breeder (bold & bright) has many, but i don;t often see lavenders in videos! their head types, eyes, & tails look sooooo much the same. adorable!

@macijohnson5244 6 лет назад

I can’t wait to see Sylvia’s new setup

@smallbrain43 6 лет назад

I don’t usually use moist hides because where I live it gets pretty humid in the summer but in the winter it doesn’t get cold so I don’t really need to worry about that but I usually dump a bit of water around the tank.

@lettuce4385 6 лет назад

It looks awesome good job

@goth-mushroom 6 лет назад

Rune is so cute, and his new home is such a beautiful setup! I love watching your videos and seeing what all you have accomplished in your fish room, I love seeing the transformation, and I'm a big fan of those custom backgrounds, they're amazing! I used to keep fish when I was younger, unfortunately I bit off more than I could chew and I was not prepared for how hard it really was. Now several years later I'm wanting to get my first reptile, but I'm hesitant because I don't want to make the same mistake I did with my fish. But watching your videos is not only a fun, informative experience for me, and not only do I learn a lot, but it also inspires me to be determined that I'm not going to give up when things get hard like I have in the past. If I had a bunch of goldfish that I loved and they all died, I would probably just give up and never keep fish again, but you didn't, and because of that you're a huge inspiration to me. :3 Anyway yeah sorry for the long comment I just had a lot I wanted to say. xD Also would you consider getting a crested gecko? That's what I'm planning to get, and I was just curious. :3

@fionashepley478 6 лет назад

Szabó Vilmos they do best alone, they’re solitary animals and cohabiting almost always ends badly.

@cowboy_danthe_lizard_man6627 6 лет назад

Eco earth is the best substrate. I use it in all my Lizzy cages exept my created cage which has moaa on top of paper towels

@jennc.8008 6 лет назад

Hi! You have very nice geckos, and I love the new tank! I wanted to let you know that Leo's are technically crepiscular, not nocturnal, meaning they like to come out more during dawn and dusk. Also, I have read that their humid hide is supposed to be half on the warm side half on the cool side of the tank. I'm not saying that anything is wrong or anything, I just want you to be as informed as possible, since you influence so many others!!! Have a great day!

@poeticfelony 6 лет назад

I watched all of LeopardGecko Talk's videos before getting my little girl, Nora! I agree she is very credible and knowledgeable. However, I would strongly recommend you move the moist hide to be half on/off the heat mat, so the middle of the tank. Cold, damp environments could lead to a URI in these lil dudes. Also check out excavator clay! Maybe you could do Sylvia's tank with that and some slate tile? That's my plan for my gecko's new upgraded setup! Love you Jennie!! ❤

@amberbrown316 6 лет назад

@TheLovegirl1229 6 лет назад

I put a porcelain tile that I found randomly and added them two my two leporded geckos tanks and I found that they actually were starting to deficate on it, both of them. I found this super cool bc now I can just take out the tile and clean it off without tearing the while tank apart

@fionashepley478 6 лет назад

snnpets I recommend eco earth, it lets them dig :)

@mxexotics6033 6 лет назад

I’ve been meaning to look into further about switching to a loose substrate for my Leo’s. My beardies have been on loose for over a year. Loving Rune’s setup, can’t wait for Sylvias!

@DragonHeartAJ 6 лет назад

MX Exotics Lots of research and experienced leopard gecko owners and breeders will automatically say that Loose substrate is bad, no matter what it is. Now of course, don't take it from me, I'm still learning myself. But I've heard it enough to know it's bad. I've heard eco earth can get dry and Dusty, therefore your gecko will Inhale it. Misting it alot will also raise your humidity which also isn't good. I would recommend tile as will also experienced owners. It's natural, keeps in heat and is super easy to clean! Leopard geckos come from a hard, rock/clay type terrain anyways :)

@kripkethechameleonfriends4505 6 лет назад

I've also been watching the Leopard Gecko channel for sometime and considering going with the Eco Earth in the near future since it absorbs odors and you can easily remove the waste and not have to replace the bedding for few months, plus our Solara seems to love it in the little bin I made for her😊

@lilygordon6244 6 лет назад

i use the eco earth for my horsefield tortoise, and its great for her

@laurens5515 4 года назад

1. Leopard geckos actually do need uvb. But most people decide to supplement it. 2. You should look into a deep heat projector! Their amazing and great for leopard geckos.

@berkehs5608 6 лет назад

@Done478 6 лет назад

Should have non-reflective glass for your tank doors to give you (and us) a clearer view without staring at our lights. I use it whenever I frame pictures to allow comfortable viewing from all angles. Next time...😉
