Ooh Jessica u always KNO jus when I need too see my boys who I’m soo in love with I jus adore my loves of my life give them my love from THIER love ❤️ from Philadelphia Pa . 🦎
I love how you explain why certain geckos need different set ups/care than others. I have a special place in my heart for special needs animals. Thank you for giving these precious boys and girls good lives and educating people on their conditions. Much love.
Your husbandry is impeccable and I really enjoy seeing all your animals! They are adorable. I hope you have a happy and healthy New Year! 🤗💖🤗 Edit to add that I'm in love with your lemon frost and Rhego! Sooo cute!!! 🦎💜🦎💜🦎
That’s so sad about the enigma species and all the neurological disorders these poor babies have. I’m glad they have you to care for them. And thank you for all that you’ve taught me so far! I greatly appreciate you
This made my heart warm & gooey knowing that you took in all these babies & gave them happy, healthy lives with lots of loving! I appreciate people like you that take in special needs animals & love them like crazy & give them great homes! God bless you & all your little angels 😇 🙏🏼 ❤ ✨ they are ALL absolutely adorable! I wish my 2 geckos were as active as half of yours
I have so much respect for people like you that take in badly cared for or just unwanted animals and give them a good life. Keep it up, you're a credit to the hobby ❤
It is clear that you put so much effort, care, and attentiveness into your videos. This doesn’t go unnoticed, and I just want to thank you. ❤️ Your videos are extremely uplifting for me and I frequently rewatch my favorites when I’m having a tough time. I have learned SO much from you and I really admire you as a person. Thank you.
I think what you are doing is so amazing and special. I had a girl with MBD (she came to me with it as a hatchling) and she passed away this year about two months ago at 4 years of age and I really miss her. I admire the everything you are doing for all these lovely baby's not many people have the patients are heart for a special needs pet. May God bless you and your lovely geckos'.
OMG I think it's so amazing what you do for them all. It's so nice to see someone who genuinely cares for their pets/family members 😊 I am hoping to get my 1st Leopard Gecko some time soon. X
Aloha Jessica, I am a new leopard gecko dad for the past 2 weeks. Came across your videos and just wanna say, I love your channel! Great video here, 33 geckos... you rock!! Please keep the videos rolling. Mahalo!
Merlin looks so cool hes a lengthy boy his skeletal issues make him a very unique and special gecko im glad he wasn't neglected for his differences such a cool little dude
They are all so beautiful. Also I must say I fell asleep so soundly watching. Not sure if it’s your calm voice or the fade in and out of music. I promise it’s a good thing, I don’t fall asleep easy. So rewatching today to actually see them all lol❤
they are all so adorable i love how each of them have their own unique story!! the way you can go into details about their personalities shows how much you love them and i am here for it ;;
I really wish I could be like this. 30+ leopard geckos with really fancy enclosures like this is my dream. If I stay obsessed with leopard geckos when I move out, I’ll probably have about 5
Thank you so much for taking the time to introduce us to all your delightful Leopard Gecko family! Seeing all their unique needs and personalities is such a treat.
Jessica, I just want you to know that you’re such a kind and pure soul for taking on all these babies. I think Benjen is my favorite and Eddard but I love all of them. Leos are some of my favorite reptiles ever, and the work you do with them is so admirable and awe inspiring.
@@JessicasAnimalFriends he’s just so precious I can’t help it but all of them are precious. One of my Leos is from my local reptile rescue and she came to me missing some toes, but she is the most outgoing girl ever.
This is the first video I’ve watching from you in about 2 years. I haven’t been able to handle looking at geckos since I lost my boys. I just welcomed my first gecko since them and my first female. Took some inspiration from you and named her Daenerys (I called her Dannie). I can’t wait to add more to my family and have geckos again.
I absolutely love this video! I will probably never be able to have any geckos of my own as I just can’t deal with insects, but I loved seeing all of your beautiful geckos! And I love their GOT-themed names.
Awwww I love your leos!!! I only have 2 leos and my first gecko ever, a Crestie, but I love each and every one of them!!! I hope I get more soon too!!!
Your makeup on fleek 😡😡😡 I love the peachy eye choice w the red lip U-U. And it always warms my heart seeing your leopard geckos and the amount of love you show them :(. It gives me hope in the reptile community
Merlin is my absolute favorite of your geckos, I have a waffles that has the same genetics as him. My waffles has a bad jaw and a miss shaped tail, very sad that this morph is being produced when it could potentially make bad geckos!! Say hi to Merlin for me.
I just wanted to say that I appreciate the time you put into all of your videos and informative videos about reptiles. I also appreciate that you have shared your knowledge about leopard geckos and the various diseases or genetics that can disable them. Thank you for having such a huge heart and caring for all of the abled and less abled friends. You are a very kind person and without most of your videos and information you have shared on the care of leopard geckos, I would not have the husbandry skills I do today. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you.
I loved this video!!!!! Would you consider doing a "meet the rest of my reptiles" video. I loved the background information on everyone, how you got them, their personality etc. You description of Lyanna made me laugh so much!
Didn’t realize these type of geckos can inherit so many abnormalities and disorders.. Returning 2 giant day geckos for 2 Leopard geckos and just getting as much research in as I can before transitioning. Great video!
Eeeek!!!! I'm so excited to watch this video and see all your gorgeous babies! 🥰🥰 you're amazing! Keep up the great work. Edit: I'm sure you get this a lot, but you look like Emma Stone! Lol!
Youre such a good person taking in all these disabled pets and pets that were being rehomed. I got my gecko from the pet store but have been really interested in rescuing another one
I got my leopard gecko yesterday and he was active in the night like he should, but hes still sleeping and its 8:24, i need to feed him and head to bed soon, should I wake him with my voice or just place them in? (SORRY FOR THE LONG QUESTION AND HOW IM ABT TO ASK A TON OF PEOPLE HERE I JUST NEED TO KNOW LOL)
@@JoJo-nj7sx hi I always hand feed my gecko and I think it has really helped us bond so I highly recommend it. Probably not wise to wake him while he's sleeping and if you just got him he might not eat the first couple days it's okay he will eat eventually. When I feed my gecko I do a gentle tap on the floor inside the tank and do a little click noise with my mouth and he usually knows it's dinner time. Mine I've had a few months and now he knows exactly when dinner time is and sometimes he waits at the glass for me haha
Your videos are awesome @Jessica's Animal Friends and your animals are sooo beautiful and cute! Glad I found your amazing channel definitely subscribed! What I really like the most about your channel is that you are giving these animals the love and home that they deserve, it broke my heart listening to their sad backstories but at the same time it made me so happy knowing they are living a healthy life full of love and only the best of care, you are a true hero and I wish only the best for you! I can tell they are loved, keep up the great work!!!! I will be checking in on your channel regularly!
my gecko is named taco. he is estimated to be 8 years old bc I got him from a rescue center for my 11th birthday. he is a wild-type and he is rather big. he is a very clumsy hunter and I have to tong feed him crickets. he's a lot like me, lazy, judgmental, curious, clumsy, and likes to eat and sleep. my boi loves to climb my arm and sit in my hoodie pocket. he has a huge preference for being held by me (he also is cool with my mom) and actually bit my ex-friend when they held him, he never bites me in a defensive way, only as a food response. he's such a good boy
They’re all so amazing! I love the ones with a natural smile! Cuteness overload! I hope you have a wonderful 2022! It’s time for some good things to happen for all of us! 😊❤️👍🏻
so many geckos yet it looks like each ones living so well. really nice enclosures and youre amazing for taking in these geckos instead of buying them from a store or breeder🙏
So i got a tangerine leo named Cheeto and as of lately he hasnt shown interest in being hand fed which he normally doesnt mind but isnt always the most outgoing hes not eating his full amount of roaches and isnt losing weight yet but any tips or tricks its worry some and i love my lil buddy
Happy new year to you and your ghecko's! Your videos make me so happy that the joy you find in taking in certain Leo's that nobody would want to keep. I commend you for that. I have 3 Leo's myself and would love to get a few more in the future. Any suggestions on morphs to get or to avoid would greatly be appreciated. Much love, Courtney.
They are tremendously adorable! I love most of their setups with their enclosures. What loose substrate do you use for them and do you use heat mats for them? And where did you get all the pretty decors for them? All of your geckos look so happy to have an enclosure like that.
Merlin ... Now that's a definition of an "enigma," fsfs... Very handsome feller never the less, looks like he waddles like a lil monitor kinda/nile monitor lol, no offence, i think it's awesome like not trying to be a jerk in the least :), Awesome scaly family, keep up the hard/great work friend!
Baised of further re-watching the Merlin part, home walks just like my baby Rizzle, he is my son, even if i dont have scales... I'm sure u understand, dude, Merlin is such a fitting name/great looking lizard, i just cant get over it lmao.
Hello Jessica 💖🤗, thank you so much for this video. It was so heart warming to see all your little ones 💗. Was trying to remember how long I've been subscribed to your channel. It's been awhile because I remember when a lot of these little one's arrived to their new home. I agree the tail drop was devastating. I cried during that video. Look at her now🥰! She is so happy and living the good life. Haven't held my little ones at all since I started with covid and boy do I miss that. Doing much better but because of asthma and as you remember I was found to be extremely diabetic. Sugars are doing much better and asthma definitely has kicked up big time. With being older too my recovery is going to be a long one. Was able to actually feed my little ones yesterday. Steve has been awesome in taking care of all of them during this time even though he was sick too. Not nearly as bad as me though. You are such a blessing to the reptile community and I'm sure many younger kids will want to rescue just like you. I wish I was younger ...like 40 years to do the same. Guess I will just live that desire through you.😉. Our Heavenly Father has definitely given a special gift to you and your using that gift. Will visit soon. May Jesus bless you and yours, Lin ✝️🐕🐕🐕🐢🐦🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎💖🦒🐧🐲
Oh gosh I am so glad you’re doing better! Glad to hear that you had help with the reptiles, too, as that was a challenge for sure when I had covid. As always I’m so grateful for your kind words. You’ve been around since the beginning and I so appreciate that!! I hope you feel better soon and have a fantastic new year! ❤️
You’re such a kind person Jessica, giving the special needs animals a high quality life! I didn’t know about these neurological defects, related to breeding. Are bearded dragons prone to this as well?
Bearded dragons do have a number of problematic morphs or issues from inbreeding unfortunately. I have one named Chihiro who does not have full mobility in her legs. Silkback bearded dragons are an example of a problematic morph.
This is pretty cool. I too rescue exotics and have only 3 leopard geckos in my care, all of which have their issues Randalyn was my first. She's small for her age but has no health issues and is a terror Nubblyn has chronic vitamin A deficiency, 11 missing toes, and a partial regen tail. She can't climb. She's one of the friendliest pets I have Marlyn I just adopted. She's missing 15 toes and has a partial regen tail. She's slightly larger than Nubby but has the same body shape and personality I've fostered over a dozen others as well, and am currently caring for over 40 pets One of my most memorable rescues was of Shufflyn. She had a big personality and such severe MBD that she army crawled. I have a video on my channel if anyone's interested From one rescuer to another, thank you for saving lives :)
Whoa! That's an awesome number of geckoes! I love that you named them after GoT characters. And I finally got one yesterday! Named him Loki, he's a mack snow around a year old I think since the prev owner only said he's 4 mos old in his care but with his size at around 9 inches I read they're around 12 to 18mos old. He just shedded earlier and I havent handled him yet since I'm waiting for him to to settle down and just shed so nope hands off the merch for now. Now the Crazy thing is earlier that day I caught a sun skink with a dropped tail that looks like a victim of the neighbourhood cats with some of it's damage scales. He or she(i dunno yet) seems weak thats why I didnt have any diffs catching it, called it Sunny. And so I thought Loki was my 1st ever lizard before the year ends, well i was wrong all along! Lol! Have a great year ahead Jess, I just saw the enclo build with the other yt vloggers and it was really awesome, I hope we get to see more collabs in the future! Cheers!
I wish to grow up like you. I really love leopard geckos and I can't wait until I'm older and have the ability to buy as many as I want (my max is 25 though)
Hi! I’m new to your channel & I really enjoy all the information, I’ve had a leap off gecko for a few years now, and am thinking of changing up her tank, do you happen to have any info on the current items you use? Like the hides, the decorative leave? & the tanks?
I had a leopard geckos for 26 years female wild type no special morph . From a kid it was my first lizard I ever owned & she was so easy going. I now have new cal geckos. Merlin aww bless him with his Spock ears 🥰 aww you have got some lovely beautiful geckos and look after them disabled ones so well . Stuck shed I had that with my crested gecko when I got him. He was only 2 grams. He’s lost a few toes . Also he often misses bugs so I’m thinking my crested gecko Splodge has slight neurological issues 😌 have you heard of that in crested geckos ? The other crested geckos I have are not as clumsy.
Hello, I had a couple questions for you since I was re-watching some of your videos, haha. My gecko is becoming a big boy and I was looking to upgrade him. What are the dimensions of your enclosures for some of your geckos such as Varys? I haven’t learned a lot of the morphs so apologies if this sounds stupid, aha. What morph is Renly (and Fritz I believe)? I assumed she was wild type, but I am unsure. Is it uncommon for females not to lay eggs at all? If they don’t lay will she still have reproductive issues? That was my last question. Thank you so much for just making these videos. It has helped me so much throughout my journey of being a gecko parent, so thank you again : )
36x18x12 but if you can fit an 18” tall one you should! Renly and Fritz have unknown morphs BUT fritz is *likely* a high yellow and Renly is probably just a normal morph. Renly was purchased by her former owner at a pet store and Fritz was adopted through a rescue that took him on as a surrender so I’ll never know their morphs for sure. They’re both pretty inexpensive normal types though. No, not all females will lay eggs. A lot of mine either have only laid once or never have.
I stumbled upon your channel because I want to learn how to handle my leopard gecko. I'm a first time owner. I've had him for about a year now, and I think he's an adult. Unfortunately I don't know how old he is. The previous owner said they had him for a year or two. He was never socialized as a baby, and he was being tormented by cats. If you have any tips, please let me know.
I got my leopard gecko yesterday and he was active in the night like he should, but hes still sleeping and its 8:24, i need to feed him and head to bed soon, should I wake him with my voice or just place them in? (SORRY FOR THE LONG QUESTION AND HOW IM ABT TO ASK A TON OF PEOPLE HERE I JUST NEED TO KNOW LOL)
I got my gecko a week ago and I’ve tried three times to hold it by leaving my hand in the tank when they look at me curiously but she just bit me :,) I’m new to owning one so idk what to do, they are a juvenile from a reptile store Mack snow
I used to work at a pet store and never knew why people would buy the packs of 500 or 1000 mealworms. I get it now! You are people 😂
I have one and I buy the 500. It’s called saving money ever heard of it.?
@@Gekkcobruh what
Man leave him alone he was just confused
@@Gekkcobro he didn’t even say nun to you calm down
“He is lovely even though he low key hates me.” I love it.
I so love that you take care of so many geckos with needs like this! Favorite reptile room tour I think I've seen!
Ooh Jessica u always KNO jus when I need too see my boys who I’m soo in love with I jus adore my loves of my life give them my love from THIER love ❤️ from Philadelphia Pa . 🦎

I'm having my hands full with 5... I can't imagine. Love the work you do
Love all your gecko! What kind of bedding you used in you gecko enclosure?

You are such a blessing to the reptile community and I'm sure many younger kids will want to rescue just like you. I wish I was younger ...like 40 years to do the same. Guess I will just live that desire through you.😉. Our Heavenly Father has definitely given a special gift to you and your using that gift.
Will visit soon. May Jesus bless you and yours, Lin ✝️🐕🐕🐕🐢🐦🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎💖🦒🐧🐲
Oh gosh I am so glad you’re doing better! Glad to hear that you had help with the reptiles, too, as that was a challenge for sure when I had covid. As always I’m so grateful for your kind words. You’ve been around since the beginning and I so appreciate that!! I hope you feel better soon and have a fantastic new year! ❤️
Ayyyy I got my first leopard gecko in March 2015, good year
You’re such a kind person Jessica, giving the special needs animals a high quality life! I didn’t know about these neurological defects, related to breeding. Are bearded dragons prone to this as well?
Bearded dragons do have a number of problematic morphs or issues from inbreeding unfortunately. I have one named Chihiro who does not have full mobility in her legs. Silkback bearded dragons are an example of a problematic morph.
This is pretty cool. I too rescue exotics and have only 3 leopard geckos in my care, all of which have their issues
Randalyn was my first. She's small for her age but has no health issues and is a terror
Nubblyn has chronic vitamin A deficiency, 11 missing toes, and a partial regen tail. She can't climb. She's one of the friendliest pets I have
Marlyn I just adopted. She's missing 15 toes and has a partial regen tail. She's slightly larger than Nubby but has the same body shape and personality
I've fostered over a dozen others as well, and am currently caring for over 40 pets
One of my most memorable rescues was of Shufflyn. She had a big personality and such severe MBD that she army crawled. I have a video on my channel if anyone's interested
From one rescuer to another, thank you for saving lives :)
Merlin was the opposite of my Leo, Lightning, who is juvenile and currently just refuses to eat mealworms.
Whoa! That's an awesome number of geckoes! I love that you named them after GoT characters. And I finally got one yesterday! Named him Loki, he's a mack snow around a year old I think since the prev owner only said he's 4 mos old in his care but with his size at around 9 inches I read they're around 12 to 18mos old. He just shedded earlier and I havent handled him yet since I'm waiting for him to to settle down and just shed so nope hands off the merch for now. Now the Crazy thing is earlier that day I caught a sun skink with a dropped tail that looks like a victim of the neighbourhood cats with some of it's damage scales. He or she(i dunno yet) seems weak thats why I didnt have any diffs catching it, called it Sunny. And so I thought Loki was my 1st ever lizard before the year ends, well i was wrong all along! Lol! Have a great year ahead Jess, I just saw the enclo build with the other yt vloggers and it was really awesome, I hope we get to see more collabs in the future! Cheers!
I wish to grow up like you.
I really love leopard geckos and I can't wait until I'm older and have the ability to buy as many as I want (my max is 25 though)
I always hand feed my gecko and learned early on that their bites are nothing to be afraid of! They have the tiniest little teeth!

Merlin would have to be named “Spock” if he were mine… Those one-in-a-million Vulcan ears are such a unique trait, and super cool.
Really great video.
Thank you!
Omg geckos with big eyes have my heart
wow .. there are so many collections of Leopard Geckos
There so pretty! I’ve been wanting to get one and think I will soon! Any suggestions of where to buy a nice healthy one?
Just posted a video about that yesterday!
@@JessicasAnimalFriends thank you!
I'm in love with your enclosures, hope you can give us a substrate video please please ☺️
I have one up! It’s in my video where I talked about decorating these enclosures AND I have a video about the best and worst substrates for leos
Merlin looks like a leopard gecko that wanted to be a Spinosaurus and a dragon which is super awesome
Ayy that pretty cool. Also do you have a crested gecko because I think they’re pretty cool ngl.
I have quite a few:)
Awesome. They are all cute. ♥️
Hi! I’m new to your channel & I really enjoy all the information, I’ve had a leap off gecko for a few years now, and am thinking of changing up her tank, do you happen to have any info on the current items you use? Like the hides, the decorative leave? & the tanks?
I had a leopard geckos for 26 years female wild type no special morph . From a kid it was my first lizard I ever owned & she was so easy going. I now have new cal geckos.
Merlin aww bless him with his Spock ears 🥰 aww you have got some lovely beautiful geckos and look after them disabled ones so well . Stuck shed I had that with my crested gecko when I got him. He was only 2 grams. He’s lost a few toes . Also he often misses bugs so I’m thinking my crested gecko Splodge has slight neurological issues 😌 have you heard of that in crested geckos ? The other crested geckos I have are not as clumsy.
Hello, I had a couple questions for you since I was re-watching some of your videos, haha.
My gecko is becoming a big boy and I was looking to upgrade him. What are the dimensions of your enclosures for some of your geckos such as Varys?
I haven’t learned a lot of the morphs so apologies if this sounds stupid, aha. What morph is Renly (and Fritz I believe)? I assumed she was wild type, but I am unsure.
Is it uncommon for females not to lay eggs at all? If they don’t lay will she still have reproductive issues?
That was my last question. Thank you so much for just making these videos. It has helped me so much throughout my journey of being a gecko parent, so thank you again : )
36x18x12 but if you can fit an 18” tall one you should! Renly and Fritz have unknown morphs BUT fritz is *likely* a high yellow and Renly is probably just a normal morph. Renly was purchased by her former owner at a pet store and Fritz was adopted through a rescue that took him on as a surrender so I’ll never know their morphs for sure. They’re both pretty inexpensive normal types though. No, not all females will lay eggs. A lot of mine either have only laid once or never have.
@@JessicasAnimalFriends Ah, okay. Thank you !
What do you use for heating?
Thank you. Getting my very first next week👍
I use heat tape but will be switching to deep heat projectors in the future
Can you make a video of cleaning there tanks?
Maybe!
@@JessicasAnimalFriends yay!!
I just have one gecko, I named his Chip because PERSONALLY, I think he looks like a Chip...
I stumbled upon your channel because I want to learn how to handle my leopard gecko. I'm a first time owner. I've had him for about a year now, and I think he's an adult. Unfortunately I don't know how old he is. The previous owner said they had him for a year or two. He was never socialized as a baby, and he was being tormented by cats. If you have any tips, please let me know.
I got my leopard gecko yesterday and he was active in the night like he should, but hes still sleeping and its 8:24, i need to feed him and head to bed soon, should I wake him with my voice or just place them in? (SORRY FOR THE LONG QUESTION AND HOW IM ABT TO ASK A TON OF PEOPLE HERE I JUST NEED TO KNOW LOL)
Also what are you feeding them I’m currently looking for a new alternative for super worms because I got a 9mth rescue she loves super worms
My leos get a varied diet of Dubia roaches, superworms, hornworms, black soldier fly larvae, mealworms, and wax worms
@@JessicasAnimalFriends thank you she becomes fussy with food if it’s not moving and fat she don’t want 😂
Hi Jessica. Beautiful homes for your family. Where did you get your fake plants?
They're so cute!
I got my gecko a week ago and I’ve tried three times to hold it by leaving my hand in the tank when they look at me curiously but she just bit me :,) I’m new to owning one so idk what to do, they are a juvenile from a reptile store Mack snow
