Omg your necklace is adorable! I have a similar one and I love it ❤️ I have a question, what does your tattoo say? You might have mentioned it in a previous video but I don’t remember!
You are always a bright light of information in the YT world of animals, you have such an awesome personality and give experienced examples instead of simple facts & charts. Thank you for being so Amazing!!! 😎👍
My normal leopard gecko was $52 but that’s because I was supporting a very small family owned pet shop in my small town, you gotta compete with those big box store prices. But I’d much rather give more of my money to a small business 💕
So I am wanting to get a leopard or a crested for my office at work but I am trying to decide which one would be better. (Not that I’m trying to be lazy at all) but which would be a cleaner living space as far as smells goes?
I love both the same. I have heard crested geckos will only drink from running water but my crested goes down and drinks out of her water dish. I had not thought of premixing and putting it in a squeeze bottle in fridge thanks for that idea. GOD BLESS and have a great Sunday.
Mine will drink from the water dish or from the leaves and glass when I spray the tank down. 😊 I'm glad it was helpful! That idea came from Gecko Junkie (a gecko breeder in my area). 😊 I hope you have a great Sunday as well!
I watch and love your videos. I have a 28 gallon aquarium with a false bottom (hydro balls, egg crate, window screen). The substrate is a block of eco earth, a bag of reptile bark, a bag of Zilla Jungle Mix, 2 cups of worm castings. Sphagnum moss is placed in a corner. Plants are a spider plant and a pothos. I just don't know what to put inside the aquarium. I hope that your videos help me find an animal to put inside it.
I got a crested gecko from the pet store on the 9th and I’ve only seen him 3 times. He is eating and pooping. I haven’t seen him come out since and I haven’t gotten a chance to weigh him because. Are there any tips for getting him to come out a little because I would like a chance to build trust and a good bond with him
Baby animals are (almost) always going to be a bit more skittish. With mine, I would put my hand in the tank daily, where he could see me. So at night when he was out eating, I would make sure to put my hands in there. He got comfortable enough with my hands pretty fast. Once he stopped running away when my hands were near him, I started hand feeding him wax worms occasionally or using a chop stick to feed him his pangea.
In my opinion I think crested geckos need uv light more, a lot of them will sleep on the side of the tank or on a branch where even though they’re asleep the sun light is still shining on them. They’re more exposed to uv light than leopard geckos tbh
I can't decide between a crested or leopard gecko! They are both so cute! I love the easy care for crested geckos especially the diet. But I love to interact with my animals, so maybe a leopard gecko. idk!
I love both of them but I think I would prefer having a crested gecko, I currently have a leopard gecko and love her very much but the crickets are not very clean haha. I'm hoping to get her off of crickets and stick with dubia roaches and mealworms but my mother does not allow roaches in the house. Anyways loved the video ❤️
I really don't like crickets either haha. A lot of people aren't comfortable with roaches at first (I wasn't), but then they realize that dubia roaches don't overrun a house like normal roaches. So good luck to you! 😊
You definitely want to avoid that, because (like HannahThe FallenAngel said) there's a big risk of diseases and parasites. You also never know if they've come into contact with any pesticides. And thank you 😊
Please don't do that. It can make your lizards really sick and can cause diseases and stuff even death. Crickets are only i believe (in my state) 5 dollars for 50. I don't know for sure though because i am gonna feed mealworms to my lizard.
I personally think that if it benefits your animal it should be necessary, not optional. I mean if it benefits your animal why wouldn’t you get it? I think a lot of people go into getting an animal and only doing the bare minimum like why would you not want to give your animal the best care?
Well it depends like for ball pythons UVB has benefits for activity and coloration but of they dont come out alot maybe it's better to save your buck? Idk depends on the animal I guess
I agree! I think you're talking about the lights right?👀 If so, yes, that's why I have UV lights on both of my leopard geckos. The use of them has definitely been recommended a whole lot more since I first got my leo though, but I think it makes quite a difference 😊
Elle's Reptiles Yes i meant the lights! But I have seen this with other things as well. Just in general I think you should aim to do the best thing for your animal, always!
HannahThe FallenAngel I see your point and it does depend on the animal but as a whole I think if you’re not willing to pay the extra buck for something that’s beneficial to your animal (regardless of what animal it is), I don’t think you should have it. There will always be additional expenses you don’t account for ana a scary amount of people choose the easier/cheaper option at the expense of their animal. Its the mindset I dislike in general not whether you choose to have UVB or not. If that makes sense lol!
Yes i agree! If it benefits your animal why wouldn't you want the best? Also a tip with dig boxes for leopard geckos don't let them have one til their above i believe 15 grams. As i heard!
they sell animals so cheap in your stores I'm in nyc they over charge like crazy a crested gecko is no less then $120 and even the most simple regular leopard gecko is no less then $70
How the hell does this channel ONLY have 25k subs?? It’s way too helpful
The bloopers cracks me up😭😂
Hahaha 🙃
From what I can see, that tattoo is really cute!
Well thank you 🥰
Elle's Reptiles I thought y’all were the same person
Omg your necklace is adorable! I have a similar one and I love it ❤️
I have a question, what does your tattoo say? You might have mentioned it in a previous video but I don’t remember!
Thank you! 😊
It just says Korea haha. (한국, hanguk) I got it when I lived in Korea, and just kind of wanted to commemorate that time
Just found your channel thanks for the information. Love smart and competent content.
Liked and subscribed.
Thanks you so much for the tips! I'm still stuck on which one to pick for when I get one! They're both just so adorable it's hard to pick only one.
You are always a bright light of information in the YT world of animals, you have such an awesome personality and give experienced examples instead of simple facts & charts. Thank you for being so Amazing!!! 😎👍
Awwwww 🥺 well thank you! Thanks for always taking the time to be so uplifting and encouraging. 😊
I got my first lizard last Friday from Animal Trax. It's 3 months old and cute as a button.Anyway,your videos are always interesting and insightful.
Love your videos. I'm currently getting stuff for my tank for a crested gecko. Are u going to any repticons this year?
Thanz for putting time stamps. They r so helpful

I more a fan of crested geckos because they remind me of my 5 year old self, always jumping around 😂😂❤️
Love your work you do an amazing job don’t tire yourself out you do AMAZING thanks for the info❤️
Well thank you 🥰

Bark isn't good for leopard geckos!
@@mariahrose5909
Thank you for that information. I have not mixed the soil; just purchased the materials according to what I read.
Another great video. Thanks!
I was the tie breaker for the thumbnail😂
Hahaha that's awesome!
With leopard geckos, since you put calcium in the tank without d3 do you give them calcium with d3 on the daily or whenever you feed them?
Good morning Elle, hope you have an amazing Sunday.
Good morning ☀️ and I hope you do as well 😊
@@ellesreptiles thank you Ma'am 🙂
My crested gecko doesn’t move at night or day time she’s always assleep
Hmm..she doesn't come out to eat or anything? Is she a baby?
Elle's Reptiles yeah she’s a baby
Have you considered that it might be dead
kona I take her out to hold her tho
Where did you get your research of cresties from i want to get one soon
Which is more fun to watch? Like more active in their tanks (during their awake times, obviously). Like I just want to watch little dude do his thing
They are both amazing animals
The Geckos are very fine. Thank you for your very good videos. Best wishes "M" and ballpython Nagini (has just skinned).
Hello love your vids ❤️

@@ellesreptiles you're welcome beautiful. 😊
I like them both. I have two leopard geckos and one crested gecko
I love you and love your reptiles 😍 im 13 and im from turkey . I have 3 leopard geckossssss . They are baby i wanna crested geckos
My crested geckos poop on me WAY more often then my Leo does, but that could just be my guys! 🤣
Yea my crested gecko has pooped on me several times😅, but my leopard gecko never has.
I can't decide between a crested or leopard gecko! They are both so cute! I love the easy care for crested geckos especially the diet. But I love to interact with my animals, so maybe a leopard gecko. idk!
Same! Also i like jungle looking enclosures but interaction is important too
I love both of them but I think I would prefer having a crested gecko, I currently have a leopard gecko and love her very much but the crickets are not very clean haha.

love the new tattoo 💗
Oh it's not new, I got it about 5 years ago haha. But thank you 😊
@@ellesreptiles your always welcome 🥰
Hey the BIO DUDE i highly reccomend this place. :)
Is it a bad idea to feed your lizards crickets you find outside ? I notice a lot be by where I live.
Btw Your So Beautiful, Keep Doing Your Thang Queen
I think so because of diseases and parasites
You definitely want to avoid that, because (like HannahThe FallenAngel said) there's a big risk of diseases and parasites. You also never know if they've come into contact with any pesticides.

Please don't do that. It can make your lizards really sick and can cause diseases and stuff even death. Crickets are only i believe (in my state) 5 dollars for 50. I don't know for sure though because i am gonna feed mealworms to my lizard.
Oh my God, I think I go to that one pet store homegrown pets
I brought my aptor leopard gecko for 75 dollars, he was well worth it!!!!!
I have a leo, im gonna be getting a crestie soon
That's really cool. Early congrats on your crestie 🎉
@@ellesreptiles OMG u replied, thank you sooooo much. I knida need help on a name though, lol
@@diamond602 I think Phoenix is a good name
@@thegeckogirl7054 thank u so much, I'll add that to the pile, the name possibilities are, phoenix, basil,ivory,ivy
They hunt from up yes very words of wisdom😂
Leopard gecko vs banded gecko
My leopard gecko won’t even eat dead bugs!! If it’s not moving she nudges it with her nose and then walks away.
That's a smart leopard gecko 😌
Hi my bearded dragons r not eating they r just laying around sleeping
They are likely brumating
@@kona9804 ok thanks so how long will they b like that
My favorite species of reptile is a leopard gecko.
Hi luv your vids😁😁
Thank you so much 🥰
Hi hope you all have an amazing day!
Thank you! I hope you do as well 😊
Thank you!!!
