My Bearded dragon is watching this video with me while his sitting on my shoulder
Chesa Djanelle lol you got roasted ps bearded dragons are awesome but my parents say I can't have one
Chesa Djanelle
Shadowk9 47 me too
my leo is doing that.
Chesa Djanelle I need help it’s an emergency my bearded dragons nails are falling out plz help
finally a good list of beginner lizards unlike those people who say green anoles are the best
hahaha Anoles are not!
Mike Tytula ha are panther chameleons good for a begeners if you have the space and have done a lot of resarch?
Jerry Du I have a green anole and I wouldn't trust him for a second around kids because he is so finicky. They're perfect display animals for intermediate reptile owners in my opinion
mr delicious I wouldn't say any chameleon is ok for a begginer it's good you did research but I would recommend getting more knowledge on the care of a panther chameleon.
Jerry Du lol
BEARDED DRAGONS BORING WHAT?????????? Bearded Dragons can live for up to 20 years mine is going on 19 in about 2 months.
+PotatoOfDestruction It is very rare they live that long!
+Mike Tytula thanks for responding so fast it's nice to know there are still People that care about there subscribers :)
PotatoOfDestruction hahah of course I care! Without my subs I wouldn't be anything!
+Mike Tytula you would be a still be a cool guy with a fantastic basement 🐢
PotatoOfDestruction hahaha Eventually when I have a place it'll be pretty awesome
Your...Your gecko is on sand...and has a heat cave.....I really hope you have the heat cave unplugged
Yep, to hot for them
+arachnidsGrip not on sand, also he feeds him with tongs and has been alive for i think over 10 years, he is experienced, Sand does not kill them, improper care with them on sand kills them
+Albino Tortoise they like to avoid sand...
Sir Ratman how do you know
Albino Tortoise Well, for one thing, this is what happens when you keep your gecko on sand (warning- graphic image) 31.media.tumblr.com/f1a292adcf0844a4059f756580799b05/tumblr_inline_nhq98dsssi1s3c4iv.jpg
I got a baby blue tounge skink a few days ago. he dos not bite me, is ok with me handling him and loves to explore. although mine is not active at all as long as I dont motivate it :)
They tend to be pretty lazy
Mike Tytula
yeah :)
abro amg How's the skink doing? :)
Bunny One :3
the skink is doing quite well, i covered up most of the glas wals with cardboard on the inside, so now he loves it inside his habitat even more.
:3
abro amg That's awesome man! Glad to hear!
don't use sand
Blake Robertson for the leopard gecko cage he used crushed walnut shells
you can use sand it's just not recommended
Blake Robertson
i think as long is not calcium sand? idk
The worry is impaction, while the crushed walnut is less likely than calcium sand, or regular sand (both are terrible), it can still cause impaction and really should be avoided. If you are going to use a lose substrate the best would be coconut husk. (:
for bearded dragons I'd say give them tile, and for leopard geckos shredded aspen
To get a bearded dragon, my mom made me write a 3000 word paper on their care before even considering getting one, sadly I haven't gotten one yet due to untrustworthy breeders and not being able to find trustworthy breeders
Theres a ton of breeders out there, depending where you live of course.
Mike Tytula thank you for replying. I live in southern Arizona and I know you've talked about some good breeders and shops in the area in the past, but I can't go to far from where I live. I've been looking online but most people I've talked to seemed sketchy or a little to pushy to make the sale. I'm not looking for any colour variety just an animal that needs a good home, unfortunately most reptile rescues in my area were shut down for unethical and illegal practices.
Julia_Loves_Prehistoric _Life to get a bearded dragon i had to get A's in all subject for my yearly examms
Julia_Loves_Prehistoric _Life Well I got my Beardie from a place called 2 Turtles. its a great reptile store, If you have it around maybe check it out :)
Fabulous Pitbull sadly it's not in my driving range. Nor can I afford to order online
this is sky.... shes covered in dirt
LOL
Max Nason LOL hahahahahahahahagahahahahahahahahahahahahahahagahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahagahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Xeno Rex 508 Chill
Whyyyyy do you use sand for leopard geckos :
;(
ProZombies100 There is nothing wrong with using sand. He said that he has had his for 10 years and it looks like it is healthy. Personally speaking, sand works fine with my 2 geckoes and neither have ever impacted.
D Jones K i am not taking risks i am not gonna abuse my animals and give them things that look nice and can possibly kill them
Look at the environment that they com from ProZombies100! They live where there is lots of sand. As long as the grain of sand is really fine, it passes right through without harming them.
D Jones They live in a gravely area dumbass
+ProZombies100 Pakistan is not just gravel, its filled with sand and hardened earth as well. Im not telling you that sand is the "best" substrate out there, if you think there is a single substrate that beats all then you are crazy. It all boils down to what best works with your individual reptile. Sand works perfectly fine with mine, I have never had any impaction problems with either of my Leo's and Ive had them on sand since day one of having them. And fyi I dont use sand for decoration, I could care less what the apeal is for me. Its all about what works with my Leo's.
Not all beardies are lazy. Mine for example runs almost as fast as my walking speed.
Get the leopard gecko off the sand
+Skull Gaming Its not sand...
Considering he just said his gecko is 10years old clearly his gecko lives just fine on sand. You learn to know your own pet.
Agree sand can cause impaction this bitch clearly doesn't know shit about them, they also need calcium with D3 and vitamins which u don't see
Kerry Winters ok hun. You clearly didn’t do lots of research. They swallow it and require surgery to get it out.
He has a type of leopard gecko that naturally lives on sand so it is totally safe for them
i love my beardy cuz if i don't handle him for weeks, i can go and hold him and he will be as tame as a friendly dog. it was also my first reptile, not only that they don't blink an eye when sound noises or other distractions as other retiles would, so you can hoover and play music and they will not mind at all!
ua-cam.com/channels/b9xzeWMrFgI7CLSq_TuHXg.html
No NOT 7 TO 9 THEY CAN LIVE LONGER 15 to 20 to 25
Please do more research on leos! I genuinely mean no offense, but your tank is 90% incorrectly set up.
100% correct. The heat cave is unplugged and the gecko is old so sand is perfectly fine to be on
SydneyGram Nope!
Sydneygem he only has one hide and also the sand can build op in their stomachs.
he has 2 hides, he feeds with tongs and his leo is old so hes fine on sand.
blue tongues are the best
I just want to point out that a bearded dragon lives around 10 to 15 years and I wanted to let u know bc I have 25 of them and most have lived 10 to 15 to 20 years
ua-cam.com/channels/b9xzeWMrFgI7CLSq_TuHXg.html
Why are you using sand as the substrate it can kill your leopard gecko and they don't need light a heat mat is better
HOWWWW DAREEEEE YOUUU INSULT DAH BEARDED DERGINSSSS
I got a false red iguana for my first reptile.. I've only had her for 2 almost 3 weeks and she's doing great. She loves being held (most the time )and she likes going outside.
My first is a yellow geyri Uromastyx. Ive built a bond with him over the course of 5 months prior to getting him home.
Would a Panther Gecko be a good beginner pet?
I dont where you have seen beardies that gave you the opinion you have, but my beardie is extremely active, and during summers I even have him running around in my backyard, and shower him with the gardenhose amd during cold days I have him running around in my attic, letting him climb on piles of pillows and stuff
MegaYourek Theres exceptions to everything in life... like I said they are cool pets just not for me
Mike Tytula don't use sand! :(
Mike Tytula The can also be really chill and just fall asleep on your shoulder
+. “the3littletoads” they are desert dwelling reptiles, what do you think they are on in the wild, cotton?... Sand is fine
+Luke Bowler bearded dragobns do not live in deserts, they live on some sand but it is along with dirt and stuff. dragons lick everything around them, it is what they do, anhd when they eat sand they can become impacted and constipated, sometimes get worms too because of poop - ex, poop is sometimes liquidy, scooping will still leave that part. he/she eats that.... :? sand is not safe.
"You have to do as much research as you can and be ready for the reptile you are going to take on"
YES I keep telling people this about fish, it's SO IMPORTANT to do as much research as possible on the species you are planning on getting
Great video 😄 I subscribed
Thank you! I appreciate it :)
As an owner of three lizards, I agree with this video. Though my blue tongue is a bit of an ass sometimes I love him regardless.
csking97 haha my blue has never been bad lol
Bearded dragons are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know right
Geckos all the way XD
+bacon bagels ya right :P
BEARRRDIE
Thomas Arnett :)
can santa make animal eggs????
Brittney Stevenson NO
Brittney Stevenson yes
Of course he can
this was the video that helped me get into reptile care and i have been a proud owner of a bearded dragon since 2015
Congrats!
thx, your videos are very helpful
i agree with this vid. I have 2 female leos in a 20 gallon long tank and they love me! I did TONS of research before i got them
so would a bearded dragon be okay in a 60 gallon tank?
Chucks got the Stuff yes
Chucks got the Stuff yes 40-70
I already have a Russian dwarf hamster and two cats but I absolutely love animals and now I would like a reptile as I haven't had one yet but my mum wont let me so i'm researching to give me information so I can persuade her.
Good luck
cheers. I might be getting a Bearded Dragon or a pink-tonged skink I showed her your video and she was persuaded strait away!
JackMan190 Same
Im trying to pursuade my mom to let me get a lizard (just in general) she hates snakes XD
JackMan190 do not get a turtle they suck
JackMan190 tortoises are cool though
Not all bearded dragons will chill on your shoulder. Bentley before he passed away was SO Active. Literally he'd just run and jump everywhere
I got a BLUEY and he is the cutest thing ever. He's around 4 months or so and 11 inches and he sleeps on my arm. He never hisses or bites, just huffing when I take him out of the cage.
TrolltheBurrito Ya the huffing is normal haha mine does it as well. And ya exactly same here they are very chill generally
my bearded dragon is active and he is a killer he is just 3 monts but he kills and he is not like a dog
theraptor craft dogs also are killers
I just got a crestie and was wondering what food would u recommend I am currently using a plain crested gecko formula ?
+Nick Bahtiraj I like repashy or pangea
+#Lollypop Libby no
NOT BABY FOOD AT ALL I would say rapashe and if you don't mind feeding insects crickets
Nick Bahtiraj
PLEASE, PLEASE do your research before buying your lizards!!!!!
DUDE! HE PULLED HIS LIZARD BY THE TAIL!
Recently, after doing some research, I got an Indonesian Blue Tongue Skink. Doing well so far, one month in. I primarily keep fresh and salt water fish. Reptiles are new to me. My fish buds recommended this channel as a learning resource. Subbed and liked and eager to watch more vids. Thanks!
Thanks man! Good luck with your venture into the reptile world!
The average for a beardie is 10-15 years one of the oldest was named josh and lived for 23 years and is still alive
Neat mine lived for ehhh about 7 improper care though;(
he still alive?
I have a beardeded dragon and they are not boring at all.i don't care what u think.I like my beardie
My best friend has one it is a killer I pet its head once very gentle it gave me this vicisous look and its neck went black and I was chill
I have a question about the leopard gecko why are they so wild when I take her out every day she jumps around and runs around the house and I can't catch her
My bird lives for up too 100 years she's a cockatoo
Just a question, from a long-term beardie lover who researched weeks before getting my beardie, and continues to this day.
Have you ever owned one? They are no beginner reptile. The petco i go to (not basing anything off this) says that they live 3-15 years, meaning people obviously suck at basic things for their care. Around the age of 2 or three, females start laying infertile eggs. They can become egg bound and die if they aren't allowed to lay them. They don't lay on certain substrates, which brings me to my next point. Lots of people use sand as a substrate. They don't live in big deserts. They lick everything, and this happens with many reptiles, And when they lick this and try to pass it later, they become constipated or impacted and they can die. Brumination is a reptile's hibernation, and while I don't know if any other reptiles do it - maybe people like you should look into it - they begin hibernating around the same age as I was saying before and people give them improper feedings, bathings, and heating, causing them to come out of this hibernation unhealthy, or dead. Some dragons go through this, and no matter how healthy they are and look after, they'll just die. Things like this show how uneducated the "reptile community" is. Kids, do your research before getting something like a dragon, or in fact any reptile. Expensive animals are expensive for a reason; to make sure little kids don't buy them and kill them. Don't just tell them this is a beginner. Parents will get them and give them improper care; not switching uvb bulbs after 6 months, using extremely small terrariums, not knowing the most important things. Although this seemed like a rant of something I could turn in to my english teacher, it was important.
+Joshua St Jean Beardies are actually a great beginner reptile. While most of that is true it doesn't mean they aren't a good beginner reptile and if temps are warm enough year around they don't go into a full brumation. They are also a very cheap beginner reptile which is why most people end up getting them with little to no research done before hand.
Mike Tytula Cheap?!
Quality uvb bulbs are at prices around 40 dollars! The fixtures are nearly the same if you get them at a pet shop! Replacement of uvb bulbs is something people don't normally think of - how they need to be replaced every 6 months. Dragons grow quickly and can't live happily in a 20 gallon tank their whole lives! New terrariums aren't cheap! Ceramic bulbs, Heating lamps... my first dragon? altogether we payed 400$ on her! and tht was before we realized we were doing things wrong - of course, this was early on. Not cheap animals.
+Joshua St Jean prices are different depending on where you live but when it comes down to it a beardie is not an expensive animal... There are many reptiles that just the animal can be thousands of dollars. 400$ for everything is pretty cheap. It's relative though.
An anole can be cheap. A gecko can be cheap. These guys aren't.
Joshua St Jean Leopard geckos will be similar cost.
Crested geckos do need live food sometimes, i heard it's good for them
your room is kinda like mine well except i have windows and birds in my room along with the animals plus i'm thinking of having a chameleon or like the monitor you had the ridge tail
Sweet!
I love my crestie :)
They are normally lazy because people feed them too much......but they are naturally a little lazy anyways lol
I FINALLY FOUND YOU!!!!I saw your vid like one year ago and I keep hearing your voice till I finally found you
Glad you found the channel haha
I have a leopard gecko and It has sand in its tank and I've had it for 3 months it hasn't died yet
loepord geckos do not live in sandy bits if you search where they live it will be grassy not sandy the pet store just says it :)
+Matthew Brown you shouldn't have had him on sand you should have done research beforehand
Great that you did a video like this
Thx to you I decided on getting another lizard instead of a snakelizards for life
I have a bearded dragon and he plays with me every day, he goes swimming and he plays all day in his enclosure or out of his enclosure and very friendly and tame I love wen he crawls on to my shoulder and watches tv and u dont have 2 feed them crickets because to keep them they are loud and smelly so feed them dubia roaches and carrots , a few red peppers and apple's and also dont feed avocados they will kill him
Crested geckos still require live food, just not in every feeding. They are healthier with some insects in the diet. Lifespans of 20 years in leopard geckos are not so common, and nearing 30 are even rarer. Most will surpass 12 years though. Crested geckos can also live very long.
That crested gecko's eyes look like it just had twenty cups of coffee lol
Person: Are you a dog or a cat person?
Me: A Dragon person!

I owned 2 bearded dragons that I was lucky enough to get as someone was donating to pecto so we took them in to our family. At first they were a huge hit with my friends and family but as time went on we started to understand why they were being donated, because it is a true fact that they get boring. They also require a lot of care and money on sand (which may have to be specific), food, water, weekly cage cleans, baths and a lot more.
I would recommend them to someone who is looking for a non hyper pet, has no issue with bugs or cleaning, and can handle pet odors.
Yes Thats True, Especially Babys
I had a beared that was 4 when i bought it from its owner and i owned that guy for 8 years so i had one that lived for 12 years. I didnt realize that he was so old!
I've had my Beardie for almost nine years and each one was awesome
ua-cam.com/channels/b9xzeWMrFgI7CLSq_TuHXg.html
Thanks for the cool video. Great advice and great production
Thanks for watching!
Mike Tytula np your one of my favourite youtubers
I like this it helped me a lot but most beardies are boring but mine always jump and come over to the cage when it's hungry and hits he glass until I open the cricket carrier
Thanks for including the snakes
My crested gecko doesn't like to jump.
"this is sky, uh, hes covered in dirt" I LOVE U SKY
I had a crested gecko and the tail came off and it grew back
Can't wait to get a crestie!
Not sure if sand is a good idea for a leopard gecko..
Lots of misinformation out there haha. Hopefully you are enjoying your crestie.
love your videos! I'm a more advanced keeper, but limited on space thanks to my Savannah monitor, so I'm just looking for a lizard for a 40 or 10 gallon tank
+AudiReptiles Nice that's awesome theres plenty out there :)
Bearded dragons are perfect for 40 gallons
yr yeee%^^
I was like "did you just call your lizard a skank?" Then I realized you said skink...
hahaha
I asked my mom to get me a lizard, but she said no. But after I told her that it could chill and watch TV with her she was all like, ALRIGHT LETS GO. but then I got it the week after that
That's awesome!
leopard geckos are not desert species they live mostly in rocky terrain. places they live in: Pakistan, Afghanistan. both of these places have rocky terrain and lost of greenery and some desert terrain.
my first lizard was a Savannah monitor and my first reptile was a ball python
Austin Clayton lizards are reptiles m8
my first lizard was a Savannah but i got it a while after my ball python
Would you recommend a power sun for a blue tongue or something else? Because I have a 150w zoomed
i have a lepord gecko and her name is Spike
Adi Gelbart Mine is named Alejandro 😊
Btw you shouldn't use sand as a substrate for leopard geckos if you give them crickets they can swallow the sand and get sick or choke
a 40 gallon is recommended for 1 bearded dragon and lots of play time is as well. They can be a handful depending on their personality. you just gotta get the one thats jumping all over the place to get one with more personality!
I like your crested gecko it cool
Hey, do you have any mossy tailed geckos? If so have you or will make a care video on them?
I don't and probably not
I'm getting a juvenile crested gecko for my b-day, the wait is killing me!
HotDangCudz same and my bday is in September! Ughhhh
Wolfpup1617AJ It's almost September now :)
My first reptile was an iguana. She's my best friend basically.
I have a crested geko named haruhi and she is honestly just the best thing that happened in my life!
Cresties are cool!
I love leopard geckos, and boa constrictors. They are the best! I have two rosy boas and 5 leopard geckos and one blue tougue skink. And many other geckos
this is amazing thank you i love leopard geckies
Glad you enjoyed!
Same. One of my 1st reptiles was a female leopard gecko I got for my 4th birthday. She lived for 23 years and 9 months in my care. Sad they arent as popular as they used to be. IMO they are far easier to care for, and no less rewarding, than bearded dragons are.
@@alexcrowder1673 they are very easy to care for and are absolutely adorable little creatures i love mine so much her names firday i got her on friday the 13th shes about 3 or 4 yrs old now and healthy as a horse! love her to bits!
How many mealworms would you have to give a crested gecko
Not that many honestly. I would feed other sources of proteins
so look i just got a leopard gecko tremper albino morph but he is only a baby & i got him yesterday but he wasn't eating i know that was what i was gonna expect but should i hand feed em or sum
What do you do when you go on vacation for a little less than a week? Should I have someone check on the Crested Gecko and have it sprayed?
Gavin Fredrichs Yes! Everyday
"Bearded dragons are boring" *goes to show his leopard gecko that is nocturnal*
So I have a bearded dragon and I’ve noticed that his nails are falling completely out and there not growing back, my question is why is he losing them and should I be concerned? I also noticed that his front right pinky is a little swollen since that was the most recent one to fall out
Chances are there is stuck shed constricting the area, I would bring him to a local vet to assess what can be done with the current injury.
I have a leopard gecko and her name is chleo
At my dads house he has a bearded Dragon and bites people sometimes and just sleeps a lot
Actually , crested geckos may live longer than that , the original specimens are still alive today
AWESOME!
am 11 i go on holiday 2x a year for 14 days what reptile is right for me i do have someone to look after it if i get one
Do you find that crested geckos dislike their surroundings being changed? I changed my boys vivarium and added some new plants while taking out some old ones, and he seems to be a bit uneasy ever since.
+Alyssa Ball (SwimmingInTheSky) He will settle down eventually.
So I have a 55 gallon tank is that to big for a baby beardie?
No that is a pretty ideal size considering I have a 40 gal for my adult but it's good when there baby's to I would get a size that big but I don't have the money that's cool you have a 55 gal tank good luck
It's a perfect size
+Lucas Logan thanks I used to have snakes but ai stopped breeding them and I have a left over tank so the baby will be fine in there?
yes it will be ok good luck on your beardie that tank will work for the rest of the beardies life all the way to an adult so your pretty lucky
yes, an adult bearded dragon needs a minimum of 40 gallons, so that tank should last his whole life, unless you want to get an even bigger one
Ive had a king snake, a corn snake, a crested gecko, 3 leopard geckos, and 2 bearded dragons, along with more green anoles and tree frogs than I can count. Out of all these reptiles/amphibians I can say 100% that bearded dragons make the best pet reptile. My boy Giz is about 4 months old and ever since he was the size of my pointer finger he was calm yet had a puppy like personality. He literally looks forward to getting out of his cage and hanging with me and my girl. Its funny, my mom is too scared to pick him up so when im not home and she feeds him he just sits at the cage door like a lil puppy dog
They're all adorable 😍
+Mike Tytula Leopard geckos are not desert dwellers, they live in rocky foresty biomes. Look up pakistan landscape on Google images if you still don't believe me.
Thinking of getting a lizard a spotty lizard. I already got a corn snake but I want to be next step. I think I have the skill to get and look after a spotty lizard. Still not sure about it though but I still really want one.
I have two bearded dragons and as I'm texting this the female is on my hand get one and you will find out how cute and inquisitive they are
+Matthew Brown no they don't dragons suck leckos are way more pretty and cute
+Matthew Brown Do YOU have a leopard gecko? Beardies and Leo Geckos can both be active. Leos just are more active at night and beardies are more active at day. They are as calm as each other and leo geckos can be quite hyper. I know because mine's hyper. They are both good beginner pets.
+Matthew Brown My Leo gecko has a lot of character. I'm sure beardies have character too. It depends on the animal's behavior. I've seen people with chill geckos and crazy ones. I've also seen beardies that are calm and others that are mean. Not all leos have character, and not all beardies have character. It depends. Sorry about these long comments, I just like leos a lot.
Yay bearded dragons I love them so much omg their so cute and amazing and how dare you say their boring wow!
thanks these gave me alot of ideas
