Keeping reptiles is so satisfying. A pain in the ass cleaning their enclosures, to be sure, but satisfying when the work is done and you can just hang out with them.
I've Brennan watching a lot of day gecko care videos since I hope to get a giant day gecko and this one by far is the most entertaining and helpful. The fact that your geckos are out and the camera isn't just filming an empty looking habitat is great!
3-can i give it some gerber baby food(sugar free) based on fruits if fresh fruits(like mango,papaya)are not available? 4-if i freeze some fruits,how long can they stay like this and keep the healthy and necessary vitamins... 5-what is best as a treat:a)fresh fruits b)commercial food c)gerber baby fruit based food? thanks for ur time and sorry for those endless questions,i'm really confused and i wanna give the best to my future pet!!!
you are so wonderful with the geckos. I have them living wild in my yard and on the porch and would love to tame one. But don't really know how. I give them watermelon and they absolutely love it.
@TheReptileWhisperer Thanks for the info. Also, right now I'm kinda between getting a Day Gecko, or a Blue Tongued Skink. Which one do you think is better?
it is higly reccomended to keep more then one in the same enclosure but it should be tall because they love climbing on walls and they will spend most of their time there
i'm thinking of getting a gold dust day gecko and i'm confused about its food needs so i have a couple of questions:1-if i feed it crickets\mealworms\superworms that have been gut loaded and some fruit mix,is that enough?or do i need some extra vitamins and what kind? 2-i saw some commercial foods available online like:zoo med day gecko food,fluker's crested gecko food...if it is made out of fruits then it is used as a teat right?and do this food worth buying,if not then what do u recommend?
Would you suggest a male Giant day Gecko with a medium sized American toad in a rather large tank ( prob 40 gallons or 50), or a male Veiled chameleon in a 18' 18' 36' screen enclosure by it self. I know alot of people say dont mix amphibians with reptiles, but I have seen alot of people mix these geckos with other species in community tanks and say they do find, but I was hoping to get your opinion on it.
nice video! i was wondering how you made the bamboo stay like that? i thought i saw a stick inside of the bamboo. if you did is it okay to wedge the stcik in between glass or do i need suction cups or something. if you could reply that would be great!
I have giant day gecko (female) and it doesnt eat and shea is really fearful. what should i do?? i know the cage is too small and the temperature is too high but what should i do to thame her down and really feed her??
my couple is still a growing pair how mutch should I feed them I want to put them in a exo terra 60cm High x 60cm Wide/Long x 45cm Deep when they are to big I would put them in my larger terra ?? would this be a good idea its because my large terra needs a clean up and repairs
Greetings : 1) Gambit and Rogue--now I get it:-) (2) Does your Tokay technique work on these guys? They're at least twice as fast! Or did you do it with treats? (3) Just a Q: Any reason why you don't do live plants? (e.g., Sanseveria, Scindapsus, etc.) P.S. My Irian Jaya will be 12 in December...
@TheReptileWhisperer Well, I'm looking for something that I don't need a big wallet for, something I don't need to feed live insects too, something that's not tiny, and someting that's fun to handle.
Let's say the ran up the wall and you can't grab them how do you get them a cup or something I am just wondaring because I was thinking of getting a gecko like that?
Hey,I am considering getting some of these fellows. I have been studying but still have a few questions. Q: Are Giant Day Geckos hard to tame if they are not already tame? Q: I have a 45 gallon, which i am pretty sure is a long, would two be happy in there? If not, can i get the black cage you have for a 45 gal with some kind of humidifier? Thank you to whoever answers my questions, it will be much appreciated! -Tyler
Hi wanted to know where can I find bamboo that you carry for your day geckos really fascinating also are you still selling baby day geckos thanks keep up the good work
im not a exbert or anything but i do suggest to feed them wax worms instead of super worms super worms have a really hard shell and they are a harder to digest. :) but great video!!
Plz anyone answer me! :) My UV-light is an 900mm, 30W and 12%UVB. Is the UVB to high for them or is it to low? My parents are going to buy me an 150high"50leangth"50width "centimeters" is it a good tank for them or is it to big?
The mascot of Geico is a specie of the day gecko. Not sure which but it is definitaly a day gecko. There is no way the geico gecko can be a crestie or a leopard lol
excuse me, my mother bought me one of these guys and hes COMPLETELY skinny and hes darkish u can barely see the hence of turquoise on its tail and purple dots and he looks like he was abused she said the reason why she got him cuz it looked like he needed help hes not eating crickets, wax worms and im using gerber banana food and hes not eating...HELP i dont want this cool lizzo to die
Any idea why a giant day gecko would be hanging out near the bottom of her tank instead of being higher up? I found my Giant day gecko hanging out near her substrate. She wasn't doing this yesterday .
***** I just checked her this morning and she still on her substrate and I've been monitoring her. I've noticed that she seems to be opening her mouth and trying to take a deep breath. do you think she has a respiratory infection?
Vertical is good because they are aboreal. This cage here is a 20 long with an extender making it 40 gallon tall size. I added the extender for height since they are aboreal. So if you're using a tall cage, that's correct
hi im getting my friend a giant day gecko for his b-day and the gecko is wild caught and has skin torn on its neck is their a special way to treat this? Also extra advice would be highly appreciated and check my vids please!!!!!!

Gambit is sooooooooooooooooooooooo fricken gorgeous
Thanks for pointing some things out of my day gecko it helped me out and I updated the tank
3-can i give it some gerber baby food(sugar free) based on fruits if fresh fruits(like mango,papaya)are not available?
4-if i freeze some fruits,how long can they stay like this and keep the healthy and necessary vitamins...
5-what is best as a treat:a)fresh fruits b)commercial food c)gerber baby fruit based food?
thanks for ur time and sorry for those endless questions,i'm really confused and i wanna give the best to my future pet!!!
that is the coolest custom tank ive ever seen

Hey great video and great geckos. i was wondering can you handle these guys?
this video makes me cry because of my dragon who passed away back in january i miss him so much
i'm thinking of getting a gold dust day gecko and i'm confused about its food needs so i have a couple of questions:1-if i feed it crickets\mealworms\superworms that have been gut loaded and some fruit mix,is that enough?or do i need some extra vitamins and what kind?

Love it nice one Thank you Got one.
I have a bit of a question here! Can I have a gecko with my asthma?! Just wanted to know because I wanted to get one or 2 of them ttoday!!
They're super beautiful. And I was woundering if they could be kept with whites tree frogs?
X-men names! Yes!
Thanks that will really help! I hope to get one around the summer!
That looks like it wont hold humidity at all.
amazing geckos you have and i was wondering how much these go for and could i put 2 in a 50 gallon breeder?
i am getting a giant day gecko and what other size tanks can i use for 2 of them. where did you get the bamboo at also where did you get them from.
good video, hope get my first day gecko this saturday

awesome names, my favorite marvel characters.
awesome set up!! love it. i have always wanted to get them because i love their colors. where did you the bamboo?? craft store??
Im thinking about getting a pair of them this summer, how much would a pair of baby's cost?
nice video! i was wondering how you made the bamboo stay like that? i thought i saw a stick inside of the bamboo. if you did is it okay to wedge the stcik in between glass or do i need suction cups or something. if you could reply that would be great!
ur awesome
I have giant day gecko (female) and it doesnt eat and shea is really fearful. what should i do?? i know the cage is too small and the temperature is too high but what should i do to thame her down and really feed her??
I think it's better to keep them in a tall tank, rather than a long one, cause in the wild they are arboreal reptiles right?
do u have avideo about how to breed giant day geckos? or about how incubate day gecko eggs?
Pretty~
my couple is still a growing pair how mutch should I feed them I want to put them in a exo terra 60cm High x 60cm Wide/Long x 45cm Deep
when they are to big I would put them in my larger terra
?? would this be a good idea
its because my large terra needs a clean up and repairs

Do the geckos really know to lick up the calcium powder?
wow thats an awesome set up and ,man they're beautiful geckos
nice geckos, is breeding them hard?
@TheReptileWhisperer Well, I'm looking for something that I don't need a big wallet for, something I don't need to feed live insects too, something that's not tiny, and someting that's fun to handle.

Hi,TheReptileWhisper I have a question, how many bugs do you feed them each time for adults and how many for babies? Thanks garyspring1
is the care for these similar to peckock day geckos??
Hey,I am considering getting some of these fellows. I have been studying but still have a few questions.
Q: Are Giant Day Geckos hard to tame if they are not already tame?

Thank you to whoever answers my questions, it will be much appreciated!
-Tyler
in theory could i put them in with green anoles and long tailed grass lizard?
@TheReptileWhisperer Thanks so much.
how easy is it to tame a giant day gecko?
Hi wanted to know where can I find bamboo that you carry for your day geckos really fascinating also are you still selling baby day geckos thanks keep up the good work
can you keep different species of day geckos together? if they are from the same region?
i have day geacko too but she is not eating well what should i do and she is vere fearful???
Are giant day geckos docile?
Doesn't that cage lose too much humidity?
I'm sure this question was already asked but where did you get the screen topper?
if you do d3 powder do u need uv lighting?
Is a 36"H 24"W" and 24"L good for one day gecko???
I'm wondering how you keep the humidity up with having a cage?
i have a question, where do u get one of these if u live in the usa? all i can find r leopard ones :/ anyone can answer!
also where do you get your supplies is it online if so could you tell me the url
The day gecko looks like the gecko from Geico, it probably is.
what is the name of the mesh top called and where did u get it?
where did u get the top lid from ????
what kink of tank do your day gecko live in
I'v got some exp. with a leos and green anole you think I have enough exp????
i have a 29 gallon for my juvenile, its 30lx18hx12d, is that enough space for him?
where did you get your terrarium? that's a good size for me
I was considering a repti breeze for my p. Grandis. The metal bars don't bother their feet?
kristina volz don't get a cage, get an aquarium or terrarium
I got the bamboo from a craft store. It was 6 ft long and I sawed it into smaller pieces
im not a exbert or anything but i do suggest to feed them wax worms instead of super worms super worms have a really hard shell and they are a harder to digest. :) but great video!!
can you put these in with green anoles
Where did you get the bamboo
where did you get that cage?
ya i love mine i got them up in hawaii
if i had a 40 gallon tank with no topper could i still have one
nice
Plz anyone answer me! :) My UV-light is an 900mm, 30W and 12%UVB. Is the UVB to high for them or is it to low?
My parents are going to buy me an 150high"50leangth"50width "centimeters" is it a good tank for them or is it to big?
whats the average pricing on these guys?
Ooooh, ok that makes sense.
Do day geckos need tanks that are more vertical or horizontal?
GetInMyBelly the taller the better
Can you make a video on how to tame them?
The mascot of Geico is a specie of the day gecko. Not sure which but it is definitaly a day gecko. There is no way the geico gecko can be a crestie or a leopard lol

Any idea why a giant day gecko would be hanging out near the bottom of her tank instead of being higher up? I found my Giant day gecko hanging out near her substrate. She wasn't doing this yesterday .
Maybe she is going to lay an egg or two?
***** May be we'll find out:)
***** I just checked her this morning and she still on her substrate and I've been monitoring her. I've noticed that she seems to be opening her mouth and trying to take a deep breath. do you think she has a respiratory infection?
***** I may take her to some people I know and have more experience with Giant day geckos and see if they can help.
+MCD Reptiles yes that is definitely sign of a RI:( She needs to see a veterinarian asap
@Sypha14 k thank you.
@dj201199 not as docile as crested geckos, gargoyles, or leopards. they are very skittish. I believe she has a video on how to "tame" your geckos.
--PLEASE RESPOND-- Can you handle Giant Day Geckos?
are they agressive
no
@TheReptileWhisperer cool
My boy is in a vertical glass tank, but I think I’m switching to horizontal.
Vertical is good because they are aboreal. This cage here is a 20 long with an extender making it 40 gallon tall size. I added the extender for height since they are aboreal. So if you're using a tall cage, that's correct
hi im getting my friend a giant day gecko for his b-day and the gecko is wild caught and has skin torn on its neck is their a special way to treat this? Also extra advice would be highly appreciated and check my vids please!!!!!!
Go ask google. Nothing has you more prepared than doing your own research. But, of course, don't just believe on site
I acually have a iguana
I have thisame this is phelsuma madagascariensis.
@xXTHExSiMPLExLiFEXx about 2k each. ;)
i take it you are a x men fan
Can you see my video and point out some thingsof the tank

Hi t
