      Give your geckos a big pool(but not big enough to drown) with water to drink.My geckos is just walking through it (I don't know if they're doing this with reason, or they're too lazy to walk around the bow)...oh,and don't forget to leave the water for 12/14 h. before filling the bow (for drinking).

    I literally just came from petco because I needed some crickets while I wait for a shipment of dubias etc. And the girl I spoke with watches you too (yep, we bonded over that and the love for our geckos) but when I saw their leo enclosures I asked her why are they on sand?!
    She hates it so much too, but they will not let her swap it. Corporate dictates they must be on sand. This is unbelievable. They are lucky enough to have an employee that is knowledgeable and then they put this corporate bs over her. It's sad. And of course it drives her mad. So, that said, if anyone were to get a gecko from petco (of course most of us will agree to not even do that in the first place and get a reptile from a chain pet store) but if someone does, it very likely may already be impacted so keep that in mind.

      I was going to get a leopard gecko from petco, but they didn't have any and I went somewhere else. I hadn't watched the video on pet o before so I didn't know. I love my gecko even though I've only had them for a day! But it's unbelievable the conditions of those geckos there.

      there’s a petco nearby me and it seem that the woman who is most likely in chargw of the reptile section is doing a very good job. the leos have correctly sized mealworms with supplementa, good substrate, heat mat, thermostat, hides, not too many bunched together, etc. i was very happy to see that for a petco they were doing a good job

      You definitely don't have to be rich. I'm actually poor. I literally have zero income since this crisis started. I've used my savings and the fact that I never purchase something for myself other than maybe vape juice or coils, all my money goes 1. To my child 2. To my pets.
      And you have to thoroughly research your prices. There can be variations of 20 dollars or more when you are looking at T5 hoods for example. And the little things add up too.
      Check pangea, they have good prices! Depending on where you are (EU or US) you will find some places that have things a lot cheaper, you may just need to be more patient due to them having to ship it instead of you walking into a brick and mortar store.
      I tried to get the best of the best for my gecko, if it was out of my budget I tried to find other things to get him the best possible I could for the money I had. But you don't have to go out and do a full bioactive setup right away, that is expensive, trust me, I spent over 300 dollars already and I'm not done. You can get your gecko what it needs and some on a budget. It is possible.

  • @JTBReptiles
    @JTBReptiles 7 років тому +15

    My leopard gecko NEVER leaves her moist hide - ever! Occasionally I catch her out of a morning but all day she goes into her moist hide. If I take it out, she paces around looking for it and won't stop until I put it back in! Very strange behaviour, but if geckos frequently get attached to hides like mine has, maybe the anecdote of the gecko and the log is just a similar case?

    • @Zuxeh
      @Zuxeh 7 років тому

      That is not a problem at all guys, wild Leopard Geckos commonly seek damp microclimates in which to spend the day asleep (presumably due to the otherwise arid climate they live in) and given the choice of a suitably placed and constructed moist hide will almost always choose to use that. 11/12 of my Leos currently only sleep in their moist hides.
      Its worth noting however, having a moist hide on the cool side is close to pointless in terms of providing the Gecko a hide that it will use a lot, always have it on the warm side where possible.

    • @JTBReptiles
      @JTBReptiles 7 років тому

      Shane Thanks! I've got mine on the warm side, used to have it on the cold side but she stopped eating when it was like that.
      I'll add moss to the other hides and see what happens.
      That information makes a lot of sense; my gecko has only gained this habit after I moved her into her Exo Terra which maintains a lower humidity.
      Also where've you been recently Shane, I've missed your input! Nice to see you're still around!

    so, my brother has two Darling Leopard geckos, and I adore them. They're cute, and they were just so sweet when we got them, and I loved them. it's been a year. They are skinny, inactive, and, though not actively aggressive, they do bite. My mom won't let me do much with them, I can't buy them food, I can't change their cage around, I can't even get onto my brother about not handling them without her explaining away their poor treatment! "He's just eleven" well maybe two geckos weren't the best first pet then! I get so mad about it, but I don't know what to do...any advice?

    • @fionashepley478
      @fionashepley478 7 років тому +4

      You say they're skinny. Is it due to not feeding them enough or is it possible they have parasites? If you think it's the latter, they need to get to the vet ASAP. I'm guessing they're housed together, are they both female and about the same size?

      Why are you asking us for advice, this is a family issue which we have no control over sadly. You need to tell your mother she is being abusive to allow these animals to continue to be tresyed this way, perhaps show her some of these videos. If she doesn't listen, I agree with the other comment to sneak in and steal them. Give them away to someone!!! Tell her they got out. What a sad situation you are in! Maybe approach your 11 yr old brother and tell him how into geckos you are and maybe he will let you help out??

If I get and edge I can get some off but it’s so stuck down it never really has one. I’ve tried she’d aid, Higher humidity, and I just can’t seem to get it to come off when he sheds. I don’t know if this is relevant but he is about 8 months old. I have searched the web and can’t find anything like this. So what do I do?

    Brilliant video! I have been experimenting making my own caves with polyurethane pink foam. It glues well, it carves well, paints well, and it is strong but light. I made different shapes, sizes, and different hole cutout patterns.
    What I noticed is that my LG, when offered two hides both partially over the heat tape, chooses the cave with two openings. I even painted the inside of a 2-hole cave a beige color on the inside, and a single-hole cave black on the inside, thinking it would prefer the dark inside. The LG still picked the 2-hole cave. The best design seems to be a medium hole on one end or side and a bit smaller hole on the other, with enough hide length to not be seen between the exits. Then I saw your video here, and you talked about the two-hole hide.
    My guess is that they instinctively like an escape route. Just guessing here of course. Would be interesting to test this on many LGs and see if there is truly a pattern. Anyway, great job on your video (as always..)

I was looking at a beautiful tank with enough land and had a small lake/pond with a stream and thought it would be more interesting for when my geckos get older, they could go for a small swim, but wanted to make sure. Might be getting two geckos either May or June and thought when they get older what I want their tank to look like. Thank you and have a wonderful day/night.😊😊😊

    Hi! I just wanted to thank you very quickly and add a hack of my own. If you remember wayy long ago back in the summer, my gecko Lemon escaped, was found, and had black grime all on her feet. It came off after her shed, and she is now fat and happy, so thanks! And as for hacks, if you buy your gecko or other animal for that matter at a reptile show, keep the deli cup, cut a hole in it, cover/smooth out the hole, and voila, you have a free hide!

      They will breed, which will put a lot of stress on the female. It'll shorten the life span of the female and could cause egg binding. Breeding will take a lot out of her. I stand by my first comment.

    hey leopard gecko, my brother had a question about his leopard gecko... His leopard gecko looks somewhat healthy, but he refuses to eat, even though the heat is perfect at 90 degrees and the environment is suitable for a leopard gecko. He eats like 1 a day and sometimes 3 if were lucky. If you could help that would be great! We have had him for almost 3 months. The vitamin powder technique didnt work for me as i have done it in the past

      RileyDrumCovers Actually leopard geckos are Crepuscular meaning they are active at Dusk and Dawn (Sunrise and Sunset) people often mistake the two but they are very important trying to feed your gecko or play with them at night can disturb them, stress them out, and mess up their sleep schedule the time you told them was correct 6-7:30 pm are perfect times to handle and feed your gecko

      They go inside wooden tanks, connected to a thermostat. Although Arcadia’s deep heat projector would be 500x better.

    • @nightinggale6470

      Make sure all of the hides fully hide the gecko. Half logs are too exposed. They shouldn’t have to choose between security and thermoregulation.

      @fionashepley478 4 роки тому

      Eco earth isn’t the best option. It can be dusty and cause joint problems, and is unnatural. Over six months reptisoil, organic top soil, or a bioactive substrate are a few good options. Half tile half soil is good as well. Keep in mind that new reptiles should be quarantined on paper towel for the first six weeks.
