  • Good Morning, Reptilians! Crested Geckos - especially babies- can be a bit stressful at first, when you’re learning their eating habits. This video contains tips to knowing whether or not your baby is eating, and adjustments that can be made. As always, if you’re worried about your pet, and/or they are displaying concerning behaviors, PLEASE take them to the vet to be checked out by a professional.
    Also this video was recorded several weeks ago, so I don't mention it in the video, but THANK YOU FOR 100K SUBSCRIBERS! You're all amazing. 🎉🎉🎉 The channel actually hit that number on Christmas, so that's pretty cool.

    Morgan is getting big, our little one Sammie was only eating off my fingers. But now has discovered that there are two bowls with food in the enclosure and he/she takes turns out of whichever one to eat from. Happy New Year!

    I just picked up my crested yesterday and brought him home. The whole night i was so worried about him not eating. And i randomly looked around three am and saw him on the ledge with his food bowl, a couple hours later i saw him by his water bowl. I think i even see some poop. I've never been so happy to see sht in my life.

    I have a question. My baby crested gecko seems to stay in one spot all the time and I have to take him out to feed him, because I never see him eating the small amounts of food and crickets I’ve put in his tank. I’ve gone to check on him in the middle of the night and he doesn’t move around. Could there be something wrong? Could his enclosure be too cold. Thank you for your help.

  • @LukeMcGuireoides
    @LukeMcGuireoides 5 місяців тому

    I made the mistake of only ever putting a very small amount of pangea in my baby cresties water bottlecap. I assumed it was plenty because she never ate all of it. Once I started putting more in she ate more. She eats more now that there's some depth to it and it's not just a thin layer. For some reason she only eats from one spot. Hopefully she'll start growing now. She's around 18mos and only 13g or so :( Total bummer

    Thank you so much for this video! I got my second crested gecko a while ago, and the seller lied saying he was young and that he was a great eater. (Also my fault for not asking the proper questions.) He is in fact, the worst eater ever. I have tried EVERYTHING and he just will not eat. I am so worried. I have tried different settings, adding more coverage to the enclosure, different brands/flavors of food, and all the bugs. He won’t eat.

    • @ellesreptiles
      @ellesreptiles  6 місяців тому

      Oh no! I'm so sorry you're having a hard time with your little baby crestie. What size enclosure is he in?
      Another commenter said they use multiple food dishes in the tank to ensure the baby can find it. I thought that was a really good idea, too.

      @worthwhilereptiles6238 6 місяців тому

      @@ellesreptiles he is a small gecko, I have him in a converted 10 gallon with plenty of space to hide. That’s a great idea! I’ll try it. He’s about 3 years old and absolutely tiny because he just will not eat. I feel like a horrible owner.

    Hi Elle!
    This is off topic but I need help.
    I am going to adopt a leopard gecko next month, and I want to make sure that leopard geckos are okay with being handled? Like is once a day fine?

    • @ellesreptiles
      @ellesreptiles  6 місяців тому

      Yes, usually leopard geckos like being handled! Definitely give them a week or so to settle in before handling (sometimes they're just really outgoing and will come out to you before that, if that happens, it's fine 🥰).

    is it better to get an adult crestie or a baby ?

    • @ellesreptiles
      @ellesreptiles  6 місяців тому +1

      Up to you! Adults will generally be easier to handle/care for. They're also much hardier.
      But babies you'll get to watch change and grow. And you'll be responsible for "handling them down" (whether you view that as a positive or negative)
