SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.
I didn’t even know I had tickets to the GUNSHOOOOOWWWWW 😂
lmaoooo
lmao
Omg you’re a true life saver. This actually worked. I’ve had my lizard for about a week and this was his very first eating from me. Research told me not to push but I tried holding a cricket for a few minutes a day and he wouldn’t go for it. I ripped the head off a little one and he took it plus 2 more live crickets after. I feel like a proud mama. Thank you soooo freaking much!!!!
Great video, I’ve used this method and that’s what got my picky gecko to start eating bugs again. He ate them as a baby, but he lost interest in his adult life. I actually first heard of this from one of your live streams!
Awesome! Im glad it worked
Same here now I have him on a created gecko diet but I’ll have to try this when I get crickets again he’s so skinny you can see a faint outline of his ribs I feed him every 2 days because he won’t eat day after day so I want him to get that extra fat on him and protein
@@Meep420 i hope he’s doing now!!:(
Just tied this on my adult male. And he took a cricket this video is awesome thanks 👍
I just used this method and finally got my crested gecko to eat his first crikets. Thank you very much
My gecko I just received from a breeder has been raised on only mealworms and I've been worried about that but she's never seen a cricket and I've been afraid that she won't eat them and I didn't know what to do and when I Googled it this video it came up and it gave me hope that I can get her to start eating crickets, thank you so much for posting this
The energy at the end! Haha love it bro 👊🏼😎😂
Thanks bro!
Thank you so much! I have one little guy who jumps at the glass but never goes after crickets so I can't wait to try this :)
Update: It worked! My stubborn little one finally eats crickets! Again thank you for this tip :D
Thank you for this video! After 3 days of trying, we finally got my new baby crestie to eat a cricket using this trick 🎉
Glad it helped!
Recently got a crestie and this video helped so much
Just tried this on my juvenile, worked first time. Awsome vid!
It worked!! He actually ate his first cricket I’m so thankful oh my gosh!!!!
i felt like i was out of options my gecko didn’t want to eat crickets i genuinely thank you!! great video you gained a new sub
This worked so fast. Thank you
Did he just say wassup freaks? 🤣🤣
This trick is number one! 🔥🔥 Took a few seconds and our leachianous took his first bite 🐊💪🏻
Just worked for me! Thank you!
Wow can’t wait (well not THRILLED about the ripping head off bit) to try this.
I very much want my gecko to get some protein from bugs.
Yes this worked so good! My gecko loved crickets when he was younger but now that he was older he lost interest and got scared of him, i just tried this and I finally got him to eat a few crickets! Im so happy
THAnks this helped my baby have her first cricket was so worried!
This just worked for my 2month(2.5grams) and 11month(8 grams) crested gecko! Thanks so much. The gravy was the trick
This video helped me soooo much my gecko refused every other way I tried to feed him insects and I tried this method and he ate 2!! Thank you so much this was so helpful!!!
Wow! This really works, I have one crestie who as of late stopped eating crickets so I got a little worried, but I tried this and he went for it instantly! Thanks for sharing
New subscriber my friend, thank you! My adult is finally eating crickets and I’m so happy because he’s kind of a small guy. Yay!
Thanks for the tip! I recently got a baby crested gecko and I was struggling to get it to eat insects but I did this trick and it went for the cricket immediately! It was legendary!
Thanks for your video. It was very helpful and our little gecko got his first cricket!))))
Thank you!😃
the gravy 😂
love this guy. he is the best. 😀
My garg named Dobby eats everything, he loves all food, live or not. I’m not sure why I watched this.
THIS ACTUALLY WORKED
My gecko started eating insects after I switched him to black panther diet, the insect based one. I guess he started recognizing the smell of insects as a tasty thing.
Great vid as usual. The squishing the head trick does work! And watch out with those guns!
this actually works so well
Thank youuuuu so much
My gargoyle gecko won't eat mealworms
It helped a lot ^_^ I have my baby crested gecko for 4 month and I had struggle to feed her crickets. So I tried to buy them again (this time microcrickets, since she's just a baby) and I didn't know how to feed her, she refused to eat them and she ran away from her when I made first try 3 months ago. This time I tried this method and it worked! Few minutes ago she ate 2 of them and now she's chilling in her enclosure ^_^
Tried it. It hasn’t worked for my newer gecko. : /
I want to thank you for your advice on the matter, I got a juvenile crested from the petco I work at, he was fed diet and crickets but I never saw him eat the crickets so I was concerned.
Sure enough he didnt like them. In fact he seemed afraid of them.
So, much to my dismay, ( I hate handling crickets,) I decided to try this trick. I want him to be able to have protein, hopefully at some point live protein (but I'll do what I have to)
I did actually have to take it a step farther though, he would eat the heads, and I had to actually rip the torso in half so it was small enough to eat, but big enough to chew. That was actually something interesting, he didnt seem to get the concept of opening his mouth to eat, but he caught on. But yeah I was able to get him to eat the entire cricket, just in smaller bits. I'm gonna keep trying, tomorrow I'll try headless again (god its gross, but it is my responsibility), and if not I can try to rip it in half till he catches on more. I am feeling better though after getting him to eat one
I've had him for 4 days so I am glad. I'm confident he'll be able to eat full small crickets soon.
I'm still not sure if he'll fully hunt though, he didnt exactly snatch it. He'd just lick it and then he started to pull on it. But we'll see. Thank you again, I think it took me like, 30 minutes the first time I even had to take the head off... I'm getting better about it.
Thank you!!! My boyfriend and I were trying forever to get our gecko to eat and this hack wouldn’t work for him. I read your comment and did exactly what you did and he finally ate
My juvenile cresty hasn't eaten a single insect in 2 days before this video.THANK YOU!!!!😭
thank u so much taking off the head of the cricket help!
The reason my leopard gecko won't eat crickets is bc the antenna hits its face
Thank you for helping me mi crusted gecko didn’t wana it crickets but when i tried this hack it worked
It took me over 7 months to stop having to hand feed my geko. I got him/ her in January and it is now August.... my geko is JUST NOW eating crickets. Before the geko wouldn’t even open it’s damn mouth didn’t want anything to do with the cricket. I was forced to HAND FEED HIM EVERY THREE DAYS 😭😭😭😭 thank god those days are over. For anyone who went through this please know it will pass.... maybe 7 months maybe longer maybe not.... 😂😭
brittk2007 hand feeding isn’t a problem I hand feed my geckos all the time but if you don’t like crickets then I can see it being a nightmare
This worked amazingly on my crested
This worked for me! For my adult and one of my babies!
god bless you! found out my crested gecko only like to be hand fed with heads pulled off! have a happy guy now! thanks love :)
My crestie used to eat her crickets right as she saw them move then less and less. Then I hadn't for quite a while and she got aggressive out of no where so I gave her some and she was perfectly docile but showed no interest in crickets :/ she's about 7 and a half years old
Love you man best advice ever
I will try it
No joke my gecko jumped on the screen and hit the like button
This sorta works for me I'm trying to get my crested geckos to eat mealworms aswell but they won't take it right away unless I injure the mealworm. She will take crickets right of the bat though.
you shouldn't feed crested geckos mealworms. Mealworms have too much chitin for them to digest since they are lower temperature reptiles.
X DragonxMaster X Don’t feed your gecko mealworms. They don’t really like it either. Just stick with crickets. I think mealworms is more for leopard.
omg this works so well?? just as i was about to give up my crestie bit thé cricket i had! thanks
I did this and he still won't eat insects... he's only eaten two waxworms and NOTHING ELSE. Won't eat crickets, won't even look at dubias. I've done this method for dubias AND crickets. He freaks out when the goop touches his face, he doesn't lick it off until he runs up my arm first, or out of his enclosure when I try to do it there, and at that point I can get him to eat the cricket. I'm just worried he won't grow right just on Pangea. He's about 5 grams at this point, I got him about a month ago, so he's probably around 3 1/2 to 4 months old. I'm going to try mixing insects into his cgd and maybe then he'll realize they are food...
this was an AWESOME TIP!!! my baby ate it right away after i took off the head!! thank you so much!!!
It worked!!
Everybody is having problems getting their crested gecko to eat bugs. Am I the only one who has a crestie that will ONLY eat bugs. I cannot get mine to eat it's crested gecko powder diet. I brought it home with zoo med watermelon diet. Won't touch it. Now I'm trying Pangea apricot diet. Still won't eat it.
Any tips for leopard gecko?
Thank you so much I have to crested geckos thst don’t like crickets I tried this method today and now their going crazy for them thank you once again 👍👍👍
What if this still doesn’t work? I even tried dipping it in the Pangea mix and my gecko only licked off the Pangea. It got some of the guts in its mouth and just ran off. It still eats the mix but won’t eat the insects
This works soo well!
😭😭😭 when u said youll see the look in there eye
thank u so much that worked perfectly
I got a 7 week old crusted gecko....what our other good insects to feed besides cricks ?? He likes crickets ... I dont ... He only eats 1 a week and i can but they 1 at a time from the pet store but worms ill handle which are the best for baby Flokie
I remember thinking I dont need this, well after my gecko became an adult, she grew out of cricket and dubias
Omg it worked!! Thanks a lot :) !!
Do I do the same with dubia roaches do I Crush their heads and let the juice flow out
Is it okay to not feed insects if I only feed my gecko Pangea breeder formula which is mostly insects and and calcium and he eats it up. I feed him every other night and he eats like half of a water bottle cap and he’s just a juvenile
Hi! Do you know if this method also work for dubias and mealworms? Should I crush those, too, so bug goo leaks out and my crestie will eat them? He is almost a year old, and suddenly won’t eat insects anymore. However, I did rip a cricket’s head off and presented it to my crestie. Worked like a charm.
Do Gargoyle Gecko eat dubia roaches? is dubia too hard for Grag to digest?
Thanks
Sound. Get a mic. Even if you record with a phone get one for it. Editing and content is very good but the audio is not. I say this because I want to see you guys hit the next level. Saludos mi gente.
Thank you, we do have a mic but a shotgun mic. Ill work on a better one.
Is this directed towards crested geckos? Or leopard 🤔
Hello so if i give my geckos the repashy grub pie they will grow as fast as if i give then live insects?
Awesome 👍☺💋
I have a 14 week old crested gecko little boy and past 2 nights he's been near the bottom looking around so I given him a meal worm and he hunted it and had it 2 nights later he at the bottom again so tonight iv given him a worm is it to much for him? And i normally give him food that he licked off like end of a spoon but he jumped at it last time I done that so I'm nervous he will bite me now lol any tips
It is fine to introduce Dubia roaches also? I have a colony for my Beardie and Leopard Gecko and we are working on a Crestie and/or Gargoyle.
My gecko has eaten crickets before, I saw him eat them at the pet store. I’ve had him for two days and he’s not eating so I’m trying to feed him crickets but he won’t eat.
Can I use roaches?
cricket gravy :D
Great video man! I recently bought a baby crested gecko. I found out that it’s hard to tell if they are eating due to how small they are. Do they take a little while to eat after moving to a new home? Cheers guys! From Nashville TN!
There are many videos about handling a crested gecko and so on but, how do I get my crestie to first come on my Hand and not run away or something (beside their normal behaviour) ?
This trick really works,I’m felt sad 😞 by smashing their heads
Daniel Freire there just going to get eaten anyway 🤷🏻♂️
You literally said don’t keep shoving the cricket in the gecko’s face ... 4:21
Didnt work help!
I have 3 crested geckos & only 2 of them will eat insects
Does the same cricket method work on roaches? I want to start feed my juvenile baby roaches and she won’t eat them.
My baby geckos only want to eat crickets.. I’m having a hard time getting them to eat their Pangea any ideas what to do for that? Great videos by the way! They have helped me tons!!
Try hand feeding them with it the same way
dose this work for meal worms?
First like 👍 and maybe comment lol
My crested geckos prefer crickets they don't really like fruits :0 so i gatta make it move like a bug and it tricks them but they will often spit it out once they notice
You aren't really supposed to feed them whole fruits, it's bad for them
thanks i will try that to my male :)
I just wanted to take a second to say thank you for this video! It has helped us introduce our little Crestie into a new area of life 😅 he seemed so scared and skittish towards the crickets. We tried twice and failed. But after watching your video I mustered up the courage to rip the head of of one of those bad boys and our Crestie gobbled him up instantly! And he ate 4 more! Totally amazed, but also feel a but stupid because this is quite a logical thing to do 🤦♀️ anyway. Thanks a lot! If you can't tell, we're all excited over it 😂
Oh wow squish the head....got it🤔 better do that for my daughter while she is in school... cuz she will vomit if I ask her to do that or see it. 🤢😆
Jesus Loves all of you guys
THIS WORKS SOOOO WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I CAN"T BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as my profile pic shows, i have a gecko named alfredo.
HE WOULDN"T EAT ANY TYPE OF INSECT!
i tried taking the head off of a cricket and it worked!
IM SOOOOO SHOCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(btw, it also works with calci worms and mealworms.)
You mispelled clickbait, Reported for misleading
I just got a baby crested gecko yesterday he is 13 weeks old, should I feed him small crickets for that extra protein to help their growth? if the answer is yes how often should I feed them crickets on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. All replies are appreciated :)
Price I started to live feed my cresties at about 3-4 months old just make sure the crickets are the right size you can use the gap in between their eyes as a gage
