    Hi Alex! Thank you so much for reviewing four of my enclosures! My burm has a big shelf with foliage to hide her, but it’s not in the photo so you can see the hand painted background better! The water feature is also not attached to the background and acts as a hide as well. The ball pythons all had UTH on a thermostat and the lighting is built into the ceiling of the enclosures! Also! The carpet python enclosure (with the wolf hide) is an altar space for working with animal spirits - I’m pagan. Lol so it’s not satanic - I’m pretty secular so I don’t believe in the devil or anything abrahamic. The wolf pelt is also secondhand from someone who was moving out in my neighborhood and they were going to throw it away which i felt like was disrespectful m, so he (the wolf) watches over my religious space. I know it’s kinda funky for people who don’t practice lol, but I’m happy to answer questions anyone has if they message me! Hope that clears things up!!

      Hun, as a fellow pagan/spiritual person. I understand that you saw the wolf pelt took it so it wouldn't be wasted.
      HOWEVER, I do think it would be best for the wolf to return to Gaia. Please lay them to rest. With wolves being targeted constantly for being a "pest" but farmers and hunters a like. Who knows what they poor wolf has been through.
      It's all up to you, but please, put the poor thing to rest with a nice bush of either rosemary or a rose bush and let them rest 💙

    @AverytheCubanAmerican 2 роки тому +188

    Nah don’t feel bad for the first guy because you’re spittin straight facts. And not affording a bigger enclosure is not an excuse. Because keeping a reptile is a commitment on its own and you’re already gonna be spending a lot to feed them consistently. And like you said a tub at Home Depot would cost less than that and gives a beardie plenty of room. This does not. Beardies aren’t fully arboreal, they’re just semi. There’s a reason they tell you to get a LONG enclosure, not TALL. If you can’t commit to what they require, don’t keep one

    • @sidthompson9538

      Not to mention, pets are completely a privilege. Not a right. If you can’t afford to properly house, feed, and maintain your pet, don’t get one. If you don’t want to research good care for your pet, don’t get one. It’s super easy (not to mention free!) to just *not* get something that you aren’t well equipped for.

    To fix the toad analogy - you have 2 toads. You don’t want the smaller toad to be less then half the size of the bigger one, because it can be eaten. You want to be more then half the size of the other one.

    Hello Alex! My enclosure is at 12:44. First up, I live in europe so no, this is not a gecko from you. I got Joey several months ago, from my local pet store, after my 7 year old veiled chameleon named Lili passed. He was alone in his tank there, but it was tiny and there was nothing but sand. Not even a water dish.
    About my enclosure...
    both the back wall and the lamps are made so it is easy to climb. Joey really likes to sleep on the little balcony. The right lamp is uvb, but I rarely use it because I heard you say leos dont need it. The other one is just heat.
    The paper towels replaced sand, which I had in there for around 2 weeks, before I learned how bad it was. I still haven't figured anything better to use. If you have any suggestions, I would really love to hear them
    I'm really happy to finally see my enclosure even if it only got 3 stars (I mean, thanks 😁✴️✴️✴️)
    Also, love your videos, especially the unboxing ones, I keep watching these over and over 💚

    • @Lexi-sy3zs
      @Lexi-sy3zs 2 роки тому +2

      Hi! Leopard geckos do need UVB because it provides them with D3 which is essential for bone health so I definitely recommend turning it on! Sand can be okay if mixed with top soil in a 70:30 ratio and this actually mimics the natural environment and provides enrichment. If you want to learn more about setting up an enriching tank let me know and I’ll shoot you a discord link that’s really helped me!

    In response to you saying you can’t do fake plants with beardies it reminded me of something silly. I have a bio active enclosure for my tomato frogs, Sriracha and Carnelian; I can’t have and oak moss leaves or leaves of any kind in the enclosure. Moss is on thin ice, because the girls are so clumsy and stupid they’ll eat moss with the bugs. I have to hand feed them now, since I refuse to run the risk of them ingesting anything bad for their stomachs they can’t pass. I love them but the amount of times I’ve wrestled coconut fiber and moss from their lips because they rapid fired licked next to the tweezers 😂😭

    Your videos make my week, I have been so stressed with life and this my only real distraction. Basically what I’m trying to say is thank you for posting :)
