Oh my goodness me it’s a smooth knob tailed gecko!!
I get it. AwA
Knobtails looks like Little Pit Bulls. Super nice Geckos Peter :o)
Harznattern very cute critters
great video if i was to get a gecko these would probably be my choice
They are all so adorable! Just can’t help falling in love with them!
I really like these because you can keep multiples together.
Same
Generally a good video, you obviously know what you are doing and seem to have great success with it.
My sincere question though (no hate pls): why do you keep additional animals, if you just hide them in a shelf all day? Again, this is no criticism, but i personally dont see the appeal. i keep my feeder insects in tubs, but thats because i dont see them as pets, but as a simple resource. Even if i commercially bred my geckos, which i dont, it would feel like such a shame to see them as a mere money printing machine that lives in my drawer.
tysm for this video!! i saw you today at the reptile 🦎 expo in melbourne. you are a very popular man so i couldn’t grab you to have a chat but it was great to see the legend himself in person. thanks mate 😉
I'm sorry I missed you, maybe next time
Im so excited because i might be getting one soon!!
OMG THEYRE SO BEAUTIFUL I WANT ONE!❤️❤️❤️
Wolfie Storm ME TOO
I love knob tails. The Millii are my personal favorites because of their temperament. I’ve also had a few Wheeleri. I’d love to work with the levis levis one day. They’re super expensive here in the US. So are the others, but a little less so.
Can you elaborate on the millii temperament?
@@jaykrizzle they’re just super laid back and friendly-as far as geckos go- once they get settled.
0:39 so does the suggest they get along with each other?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 sorry I cant help myself that one in the corner is like “HELP ME DIS GUYS CWAAAZZY!!!!”
Great vid as usual. Picking mine up this weekend.
There’re so fast and adorable
Loved this video
You made me love em.
awesome
THATS SOOO CUTEEE!
Ok thanks you for your help and next year I might buy one of you geckos 🦎 good work
Omg it is beauty
They are so cute!! I kinda want one but I’m pretty sure my husband would think I was crazy bc I already have two axolotls some fish and a dog. But man they are so cute!!
Very cool video. What temps are you keeping your geckos at (day/night)? Will you be providing additional videos in the near future? Thanks, Wally
Great video I was just wondering though where you get the terracotta egg laying hides? Thanks!
Where can I find those terracotta hides? 🙂
Hey there , try squamata concepts they make the SIM tubs
Aww
Are they go with handling ?
Hello to what temperature are day and night? and quantum measure the tupper thanks
Love the re-hash of old videos, will you be doing new ones?
Lance Kirkman should be some new stuff coming soon
hey could you let me knob where you get those terrcotta hides please?
really love these guys! sadly i'm here in the states where its alot harder to get knob tails in general but if they do pop up they are pretty pricey. But out of australian geckos there is a lot more than just knob tails id want. haha.
TheILastIHunt I've seen a few breeders with exceptional good geckos in the US
Geckos ETC. works with them but like I said alot more pricey than they are in australia for obvious reasons.
CrittaCam can you show me some links cause I can only find one website now and they usually don’t have any.
you should get leapord gecko
I really want the gargoyle gecko but i have to get this one because im in Australia :(
What size enclosure is the exo Peter?
think these were the 45 x 45 x 45
Anyone know some breeders that skip in Europe? Thinking of getting one :)
Where do you get the Terracotta pot from? I'm located Queensland Australia :D
we can keep the male & female in the same tank at same time from baby until they breed ??!?? or separated them???
Do they enjoy being held?
not really
So cute! But i would put them in a bigger cage tho! (:
I want this gecko so baaaaaad!!! why couldnt i find any knobtail gecko here.
Where do you stay
Hey peter! I was that kid at the port Macquarie reptile expo that said watches your videos!
Tyler Langley it was great meeting you
CrittaCam Thanks I can't believe I actually met you! I've always wanted to meet you
They say sand is bad is it different with these guys? And can they breed with normal geckos?
Do they need heat around Bundaberg?
they would still require some supplement heating
question does the smooth knob tailed gecko need the same things as the knob tailed gecko?
same critter
@@CrittaCam are smooth knob tails basically a sort of scaleless gene? or are they naturally smooth sometimes?
Where can I get them?
hello i'm very late but do these little guys have to be in pairs or groups or can they be alone?
Where did you get the Terracotta pot from
Jaspar Harris squamata concepts I think
Why is everyone saying they can't be put together but you are saying yes they can?
Are you selling any I’m in au
When you breed knob tailed geckos, do you HAVE to brumate them in order for them to breed?
They do perform better after a short cooling period
are these nephrurus levis? I've been told that only nephrurus milii can be kept together. what do you think about that?
Tiago Ideias these are levis and we have never had any issues
They don’t need uvb or heat lights? Thought they were native to Australia.
Psst after this check out Adventures With Ambery
what kind of sand do you use with your gecko's? I have read som horror stories on different types like calci sand, and sillica.
Chris Knott we use a fine beach sand and have had no issues
CrittaCam thank you very much.
For just one of these what size enclosure will be the min? I am looking at a 45cmx 45 cm
Great size to start at
@@CrittaCam For a hatchling I am guessing? What about for an adult what size for just one?
The tray containers at the beginning of the video , they seem to be trying to get out. Do they need more room? Or, do they need to be taken out and allowed to roam a certain extent?
Yeah seems kinda small
notice as he says you can keep them in those crates while one is trying its hardest to get out
You can give them a whole room to move around and they still do that
Jordan Pleasant 0:39 the one in the corner
Where did you get the terracotta pots? Are they available in the US?
Matthew Henry try squamata concepts
15 x 2 is 30,😂.. anyways I love the content!
Hey, can I keep them 0.2 without problems? Do you know how to find any Knob Tailed Geckos in Germany or Traders who deliver to Germany?
Appreciate a reply :)
They do fine in multiples as long as they get feed frequently as for traders in Germany I can't help Australia has a zero exportation
G’day just wondering I live in Victoria what’s an estimate on how much one or a few of these guys would be?
over here in SA I've seen $120 for an adult in a reptile store and $50 for babies in Gumtree
I’m thinking about getting a gecko soon (this is why I’m commenting on a 3 year old video) Just wondering if you need hot and cold hides with knob tails and do you have any objections to sand? I see you’ve used sand in the video but I was wondering if you still think that works as of to now.
Not an expert but I've done lots of research on Knob-Tails! In most places Ive read that its best to provide a hide on both the hot side and the cool side, with the cool hide doubling as the humid hide
@@scarlett8220 thank you so much, I’m literally researching them now, I’m just about to get one because yesterday I found some at a local pet store
@@Ingrid-ej5oy Yeah! I'm looking to get one in about a month or so! I'm glad I could offer some help and I wish you the best of luck with your future gecko!
do you have a breeding page for someone in brisbane to purchase geckos from you in the future?
facebook perhaps
Can we have them in New Zealand?
Bruh that's what I was thinking
isn't sand bad?
do anyone know breeder which is in Canada or Toronto area???
dope martin no i dont sorry
Were can I get a breeding pear
LP BMX/Reptiles where are you in the world
@@CrittaCam Hey Peter, can you give me contacts for breeders around Vic (or somewhere else in Aus)? It seems impossible to find them online. Cheers if you read this 😁😭
I have a question. Are the knobtails fine on sand, as in is there a risk of impaction? From what I've read and heard about other lizards, generally it isn't advised to keep them on sand do to the risk of impaction.
never had an issues as long as they are well hydrated
I Am Aussie I live in Queensland
LP BMX/Reptiles should be plenty of options like reptile sales pages on fb and rdu
This is a leopard gecko??
No. Eublepharidae are not found in Australia. (Eyelid geckos)
Australian NZ and New Caledonian geckos all have non closing eye 'lids'
Leopard and Leopard gecko family in Asia, inc. Cat gecko,Cave gecko + the Americas (Switak's, Banded etc) and Africa (Fat tails) have closeable eyelids.
Don’t need water? You sound crazy lol
Handle them with care a bit please..
3.1? That would be three Males und one female
ichverstehe1 just because somebody made a mistake doesn't mean you can be a asswipe.
ichverstehe1 i did explain 3 females to 1 male
I've always wanted a levis pair but they're tough to find in Europe. And especially in Greece, they are very expensive (a breeding pair I can find from a breeder friend can cost up to 600 euros). Such a shame.
0:43 not going to lie but that is a terribly small container with 3 and no hides that is really horrible and cruel
as you can see from the other footage beforehand there were dies in there but we removed them for filming purposes and were replaced after filming.
@@CrittaCam ok thanks for letting me know (and did you mean hides not dies)
@@Beanzybean yes hides, silly predictive text
@@CrittaCam 😂
5:23
Your Australian math is a little bit down under cuz
They're so friggin cute! BUT honestly, would you be happy & comfortable being forced to live inside small dark containers? Would yoy kerp you'r baby inside a dark small container? Would it be appropriate and fit for the physiological, psychological, emotional, neurological, mental & physical etc. developement of any animate beings (whos natural habitats are not normally located in dark small spaces) inside a dark small container? ... It's one thing to be a licensed gecko owner. BUT an animal owner/caregiver who takes their diet, appearance, HAPPINESS, COMFORT & HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT into consideration, gets the honor of GOD, The Creator himself.
Let them go dude. They belong in the wild. They deserve a lot more than being locked in an enclosure.
Very inappropriate and naive response also probably illegal in most areas.Especially if that species is not native to that habitat, locale or country even. Wild populations are never helped by rereleases unless heavily planned & monitored by official scientific research in event of a depletion in a very rare species.
Captive pure bred reptiles and amphibians will in the future (and already) form the bastion of anti-extinction efforts. Ever heard of climate change? Skilled Reptile hobbyists and especially ethical reptile breeders ideally would form and produce the pool of animals and knowledge that professional herpetologists might one day (or already) need for such organised restoration efforts.
These particular geckos are mostly nocturnal from my understanding and the drawers as he explained are also suitable for these captive bred species. Oz has a permitting system that he would have to satisfy.
( I am talking here about ethical breeders- not reptile hunters collecting en masse vulnerable or rare species for huge profit)
