Lived in New Caledonia for many years and had a few of these in my back yard I actually nursed an injured one back to health after a cyclone and ended up keeping her as a pet for 7 years ! These are truly incredible creatures and they are called tree devils by the locals because of the canine like vocalizations they can make which can be pretty frightening in the middle of the night. Turned out one of their favorite food was banana flavored baby food and it's what the zoo keepers in the reptile section of the Parc Forestier (New Caledonia Zoo) fed their specimens ! I actually really miss being able to see these in the wild and hear their vocalizations in the night !

@kevinbailey1632 5 лет назад

I would absolutely love to own one of these and build a walk in cage for a pair of them to mate

@jesseb4827 3 года назад

You’re living the dream. Truly hope to visit New Caledonia one day. Been my dream for almost 2o years now.

Thanks Steve!

@santosleeli 6 лет назад

Great to see such a responsible breeder!

@pewpewcat7679 4 года назад

I think it's really smart how they're going about getting them used to each other. It's almost like when you try to get cats acquainted. They really take all the extra steps to make sure there's the least possible aggression

@3ggeckos519 3 месяца назад

Excellent video, I'm glad it's still on here to enjoy lol...I'm looking into getting my 1st leachie and found this very informative. Great job! - Greg

Bought my first pair of red gargoyles from them a couple months ago. They are amazing! Soon will be getting some GT leachies from them too.

@IronBiker69 6 лет назад

Pretty awesome animals, and I think it's very kool that they don't cross em and keep the lines pure! Don't see that much at all in the business, lot people out there betting on a crap shoot hoping for a"pretty" 1 and doesn't always work that way. More power to the Nimmers love the dedication!!! Keep em coming Dav.

@Stacker_Actual 4 года назад

Stupid question but is there a specific marker that should be used on eggs ? Can perm marker harm the baby?

@SASINYAFACE 6 лет назад

what are the little bugs crawling on the eggs at like 11:08?

@enrico1086 6 лет назад

Are bays leachianus difficult to keep ?

@pickledips1380 5 лет назад

I’ve always wanted a Leachianus but simply don’t have the money for the lizard itself... it sucks, but maybe sometime I can afford one in the future

@tinksmith4964 3 года назад

Touch wood but my leachie is fantastic he’s lovely even the tokay - it’s easy if you tame them but if you have loads you don’t handle them the same they won’t act the same

@terramia. 5 лет назад

@uncledebo44ch23 6 лет назад

@dirtywhiteboy2316 6 лет назад

I would really love to see an episode on reptile educators and I would also like to recommend my good friend Brandon Fowler of Roaming Reptiles out of Bakersfield California! He does an outstanding job at what he loves to do and that is to educate as many people as possible. I think the educators of this hobby are overlooked way too often, without the proper education the future of this Hobby looks pretty bleak. I think a really good episode would be to showcase the educators that are going to be opening the eyes of the future of this Hobby!

6 лет назад

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll look into that!

@TRreptiles 6 лет назад

I'd wear gloves 2 to pick them look like they pack a nice bite

@Dubstep2DnB 6 лет назад

So with Leachies it´s basically the same problem as with Bcc and Bci? Where many people cross every locale and you have to look far and wide for a person who you can be sure would only sell "pure bred" animals? Pretty sad to be honest. In my opinion, we should keep the different local forms seperated, because it would be a shame if we lost the diversity..

6 лет назад

Agreed!

@crestedconstellations5980 5 лет назад

Totally agree. Im having a hard time searching for any even listed as a pure locale

@SwampRattler08 4 года назад

Wait what's wrong with breeding from different locales

@ondrejfruhauf9806 6 лет назад

@zajaxaty 5 лет назад

Which leachie would you say is the least aggressive?

@LanceKirkman 6 лет назад

LEACHIES!!!!

@davidloy9221 5 лет назад

Around 11:00 you can see bugs crawling on the eggs . Is this normal?

@chaoticimpulse 6 лет назад

I really really really want one! But they are so exspensive!!

6 лет назад

But worth it :)

@clementpigot6561 6 лет назад

I lived in new caledonia for 6 years an I never heard about the islands you speak of at the end. Small detail also, there is no "s" in Mont Koghi, sometimes you see people writing it monts Koghis, but it is less common. Really hard to find them in the wild, very nice specimens you've got there!

6 лет назад

Thanks for the information! I'm planning a trip to New Caledonia and would like to ask you a few things if you have a moment. Can you please email me at herperstv@gmail.com. Thanks!

@jesseb4827 3 года назад

My goal is to have to use a blender to feed my leachies.

@estebanarriaga8508 6 лет назад

Super cool oove your videos 😍

6 лет назад

Thanks!

@poorboirich1673 6 лет назад

What are the most placid Leachies as a rule?

@rossbeer7597 3 года назад

He says "...I turned around and bought a snake" . Why did he turn around before he bought a snake? Is it some kind of tradition or ritual? Does he turn around every time he buys a snake? Does he turn around before buying other species too? Or was he just facing the wrong way?

@GreenCanvasInteriorscape 6 лет назад

I was told that a female leachie will continue to produce eggs even without a male around in that she has absorbed the sperm and maintains it as a supply is that correct?

6 лет назад

It can be, but it's not a rule to go by

@jdssurf 6 лет назад

Must be more reasoning why the stop going after crickets, anyone else have thoughts on that?

@Jordan-mv3pd 5 лет назад

jdssurf lose interest. Like if u ate a chopped up grape at 1 year old. At 20 years old are you gonna eat a chopped up grape or a fat ass steak. 😆 leachie went from crickets to pinky mice. More everything. But mine doesnt eat live food period. Its picky.

@jdssurf 6 лет назад

Strange in all my years I thought Ls were supposed to be super chill and docile but I’m noticing a lot of ppl saying the are a bit agro, I must have missed something.

@3dPrintingMillennial 6 лет назад

jdssurf this comes as a surprise to me too. That sucks.

@trayas2272 5 лет назад

I think they are quite cage aggressive but as soon as they come out they chill out.

@scottslater7517 4 года назад

This is not relevant but my created gecko isn’t drinking water I feel like it’s skin is dry and dehydrated please help me

@tasha_111_ 6 лет назад

Great Video!! But what are those little white bugs crawling all over the eggs that she was showing..? it was at 10:45-10:55, there were tiny whitish bugs crawling on both eggs... are they harmless or some sort of parasite? Those dividers we're a really good idea when doing the introduction, they can get really nasty to each other if the process is rushed.

6 лет назад

Good eye. Not sure to be honest, but they are obviously harmless to the eggs.

@cinnasticks288 6 лет назад

Those are springtails! They're little bugs that eat mold and help poop n stuff break down. They're harmless! :D SerpaDesigns has a great video on them!

@Jcentricecosystems-du3jw 4 месяца назад

So many breeders focus on pure breeding so much they pay no attention to outbreeding different bloodlines (same locale). Breeding your animals into a genetic bottleneck is very irresponsible. Did anyone learn anything from the viper gecko problem?

@predatorsprey7378 3 года назад

I like leachies but seriously they need way better cages poor breeder learned how to care for a reptile cage properly

@ruinsane100 4 года назад

The guy seems to genuinely care about his reptiles but I wish they didn't have to live in such small quarters. In the wild they would cover a lot of ground and it makes me sad to see them deprived of that freedom.
