thats an understatement

agreed

You mean way too long.

I am your 200 like lol

Yeah, I had to skip through it.

Because it is

Ya

thanks

Thank you. Why do people think they need a 42 second intro?

awesome video, your a natural teacher who makes topics interesting and fun while you speak. keep it up. thanks PrOfEsSiOnAl PeTs!

Bernardo Gonzalez do leapord geckos have to be in a certain temperature ?

lmaoo

the timber wolf too*

the timber wolf it is 40 seconds can't you have a little respect

Riley Addyman that is 40 wasted seconds of my life

Your grammar is kinda bad, just advice

You can always skip it! :)

***** Yup :) great video by the way :)

Hi Nice to meet you Thanks so much! :)

ProfessionalPets It’s advice.

@@bellanies.4726 why did u necro

How do you do it?

@@myadavis8656 Soak 'em in some warm water, then gently peel when it's all soft.

@@for3stspirit thanks

Yeah warm water should loosen the shed and it should come off with no worries

Just be careful

Stupid Stupid Prepare to have great responsibility

That law was stupid stupid

Savage animal vlogs Ye

Stupid Stupid stupid and shit

Stupid Stupid Im Norwegian as well hahaha

Alberto Reynafarje they’re*

Alberto Reynafarje they're lol

@@dawbcat8839 I bet you're fun at parties.

StyTheLonelyGuy I bet you’ll have an easy time getting into college

@@stian55 i BeT yOuRe FuN aT pArTiEs

who cares ?

Antonio Burritomaker Jimenez anyone who watches the vid. Dumb question

The Weeb Patrol 42 seconds* Atleast get it correct.

The Weeb Patrol ikr

I have seen people with 1:30 minute intros.l

haha! Yup! Thank you! :)

They are definitely not social. You rarely see leos living in groups, or even in pairs.

@@racin5260 they are social with their human counterparts

@Humantorsaurus Rex they actually do enjoy being help some enjoy being pet and if you create a routime they will even develop a schedule on which they will ask to be let out

From the sounds of it she sounds like a blizzard! What’s her name?

Or pretty much any reptile....

Not really. Snakes eat rodents mostly. Monitor lizards and bigger eat rodents, rabbits, etc. It's only the small reptiles that are insectivores.

Razzlewolfflight I don't touch bugs LOL! I use tweezers - great alternative for anyone who doesn't necessarily want to actually touch them. As long as you can tolerate their existence you should be fine. :)

I use tweezers as well. I never touch the bigs with my hands.

I can’t touch crickets.. wax worms I can touch but crickets I can’t. I keep my gecko on worms mostly

+Jake Biggs awwwe :C

+Jake Biggs Aw, I'm sorry to hear that! I may have some convincing tips coming up. Show her how bad you want that leopard gecko. Find the passion and make it known. Improving grades in school and everything else doesn't hurt too ;) You are on your way. It just takes time, sometimes!

Same

+Jake Biggs Same here :c

get rekt

Gecko Land Thank you! Yes, definitely notice and the shed has been since removed. Glad you enjoyed. Have a pawesome day! :)

It all depends on personality and whether they are tamed or not. I own 2 leopard geckos, and one is completely fine with me. Curls up in my hair and sleeps. The other tries to run from me and freaks out, but lets me hold her for maybe 10 seconds before leaving. (Still trying to tame her). It really all depends.

He's shy lmao

Every gecko I’ve had has been chill their whole life. Also it depends how you pick them up, if you grab them completely they’re gonna freak out. I either scoop mine up or if it’s an adult I slightly pinch it by the belly

+Reptile Z Hi Reptile Z! If you will have adult supervision and parents/guardians that are willing to take you to the pet store or somewhere of the like....totally! The only reason I advise against pets for really young people is because there are illnesses that can arise and parents aren't always willing to help. You know yourself better than anyone so if you are mature and think you can commit to taking care of a living thing - go for it! You just need to prepare yourself and make sure you know a lot about leopard geckos! If you have any questions feel free to ask. I wish you the best of luck with your new friend. :D

Thanks I've been researching a lot about leopard geckos and I'm the only who can take care of a leopard gecko

+Reptile Z What would happen if they are awake in a dark room during the day?

Elite Dunkachino115 I believe that it's not too bad, as breeders often keep their leopard geckos in racks where they barely get any light

+AsianBatman alright thanks

darthmavecon Woah! That's awesome! Thanks so much for watching ProfessionalPets! We're glad we could help! :)

nice story

Make sure you're up for the challenge and if you don't want it anymore... Sell it. It's better than it dying.

+Arianna Beracasa yeah i've decided not to get one.

+Morgan Loftus ok

I hear you I just turned ten and I don't "play" not even at school people say I am weird and I grow up to fast but I am just mature and my Leo is perfect for me since I don't want to play with it all day.

Get this vitamin sprinkle and put it on the crickets or mealworms for your gecko it helps them eat vitamins and eat there food faster

Thank you

They require calcium and vitamins lol oof this comment is 3 years old

And this reply is from a month ago XD

TheAnimallover654 inscets and vitamins make sure to dust you insects

+Zoe Roberts Not trying to be rude, but you sound like Squidward. ;)

lol i am sorry ;)

:o

+Zoe Roberts So much nose involved

ProfessionalPets wait but you never heard his voice

this vid helped me alot on deciding for a leopard gecko and tis a definite yes

Michael Thorley Awesome to hear, Michael! Enjoy your new pal! :D

I have a leopard gecko that isn't eating. I dont want to force feed him. What do I do?

But I juat got him yesterday so I have no idea

andi do feed him live crickets

Just let him. He'll eventually realize it's no use, and that he's safe.

It's a hatchling leave it for 3 or 4 months and you can tame it.

^ But that's only if it's tiny and has a squeaky voice.

Luiz Famvision gotta keep trying

Luiz Famvision my leopard ghecko was 2 years old when it came to me and it was scared and disliked human touch, bit me yelled at me and ran away, after about 3 months of tender care and holding he learned to love me. He falls asleep on my chest now

what the fuck is up with your hands?

what's the song?

mon929 What is wrong with his hands?

Joana Savater its shedded skin left over on its hands. :)

Bethany Camario Oh i didn't see that!

AllisonsSlimeChanel 101 name five of those channels?

Attacks someone over a fucking pet youtuber intro

I'm getting a gecko soon and after lots of research I've discovered that yes they are similar to bearded dragons. Except they prefer there heat to come from under the tank (undertank heating pads instead of heating lamp domes) and they're nocturnal while bearded dragons are diurnal. Also, the temperature of the heating pad needs to be 75-90, definitely not 100+, that's too hot for geckos. Most importantly DO NOT use sand for the substrate. You can use a paper towel for baby geckos and juveniles but for adults I recommend some reptile carpet.

I have a gecko and basically sorta the same as what the person above said. also if you have a cat...I wouldn't get a gecko, my cat attacked it and nearly killed it so..

My cat killed mine, too.

+ira moser aww sorry :(

+Niamh's i do have a cat but he loved the beardie i had and he would stand by the class and theyd communicate with eachother.... my beardie got sick and passed away a few weeks ago.... like 2 days after this comment actually

I know right! Chloe just reached 3 years with me and I have to say I totally agree! Thanks for sharing your opinions! :D

I've had my Zeus boy for over 10 years now. He's still going strong! I lost my baby Athena 2 years ago, she was over 8. I miss her so much :( Leopard Geckos are such sweethearts.

Two little Besties same

HideYourKids Whoooooot! Cleveland in the house! :)

ClassyMalick! HUH?

Yikes, Kevin. So sorry to hear that. We like to have fun here at ProfessionalPets and music adds a bit of style to the videos. We have new intros now that are shorter but they include music too. However it is top rated music and hopefully you like it. Check them out here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sRoDm-GDhoc.html. Or, as always you are welcome to not watch my videos ever again.

hahah! Cool name! Love it! Thanks so much! I wish the same for you :)

Oh my gawd

Ghosty wun I have a gecko and im 9

Ghosty wun -- So what if he is...what's your point? Who cares. His sexuality ain't your business and it doesn't even matter what he is.

Something tells me you're insecure and in the closet 👌

Ghosty wun lol exactly what i thought

Thanks so much! If you have any questions, feel free to PM me. Also, I'm having FIRST EVER LIVE SHOW on RU-vid, where you can ask questions and we can all chat! It's coming up later this month/early june! Check it out on the "upcoming events" section on my channel. *Dates and time are subject to change. Check periodically for latest information*

Ahahahahahaha! They are that awesome! :D

That's awesome! So glad, I was able to genuinely help ya! Your extremely welcome! Just want to add that my very FIRST LIVE EVENT is coming up right on RU-vid! Check out my channel in the "upcoming events" section to learn more! :D

Yeah the intro is too long but u could have been nicer about it 🙄

Opjink and your not important enough for this comment to matter 😱

Opjink it's not about him, it's about his pets

WinterFazeRunner Overwatch and COD on PSN it's a chick

WinterFazeRunner Overwatch and COD on PSN nvm

This upcoming week we are rolling out new intros! We've listened to your feedback and others and we hope you like what we've worked on. Let's just say, they are all less than 45 seconds for sure! Thanks for the feedback! :)

@@ProfessionalPets *takes 44 seconds*

+AsianBatman Awesome!!!! Thanks so much for letting me know. That means a lot. Do you have links??! I'd love to watch! :)

Actually u spend more money on bearded dragons and iguanas then leopard geckos. :) U need a giant tank for beardeds anyway.

Hanna Eveningstorm Yea but they are way more worth it. :) My friend had an Iguana it was like a giant Green Dog. I have a Bearded Dragon best pet ever lets me do anything with him.

It really depends on the owner and what they're interested in

I love the conversation you generated here, Ry Guy! It's so important that pet owners realize it's okay to like a certain species over the other. In the end you will probably care best for what you love the most and so it's awesome you made that observation for yourself. Thanks for sharing! :)

OreoAJ Very, very true! More food as well! Thanks for watching and commenting! :)

It's a guy

Can't tell if you are trying to provoke and annoy me or just don't know what's appropriate and what's not.

Shacain Watson walters Thank you. Enjoy your weekend! :)

cant tell if you have problem with gays or u are homophobic

Meepie Tfm You're really welcome man! Thank you for the compliment & for watching. Best wishes for you and your leo(s)!! :)

ClassyMalick! I always love to acknowledge owners like you. Because half the time they have very poor health. Keep it up!

Your welcome! :D

They only scream when babies

+Leo Life True, most screaming is done by babies or geckos in a "fight or flight" situation. In the months since I made that comment, though, I've learned that leos have a lot of other vocal sounds. On the gecko forums I frequent, I've heard of some abnormally verbose leopard geckos who initially freak out their guardians by spending the majority of their active time squeaking, chirping, whistling, clicking, and grunting. Until the human gets used to it, it's a guaranteed way for the scaly baby to get attention--the voice of an animal that shouldn't be making noise understandably brings someone running to see what's wrong. My sweet girl occasionally makes noise but never screams. If she's upset about a bad shed, a pesky dubia that escaped the dish and invaded her hide, the indignity of having a belly check during mating season (she has a history of infertile eggs), or something else along those lines, she makes this quiet grunt/screech/hiss noise. If she thinks I'm ignoring her when she wants attention, she has a chirp which so nearly resembles a bird that I almost started looking for geckos when I was out shopping and heard one bird call to another.

Your welcome! And thank you!!! ahhh I remember when I saved up for Chloe and her necessities! It's totally worth it in the end! :D Your amazing your leo will be happy to have you as well! :D

Thank you :)

***** Update: 9 months later I now have had my leopard gecko since May. Her name is Piper and I'm not sure what morph she is, but I really love her. Just thought I should update you :) Her birthday is the day before mine
