It was fun to meet you at the show this weekend. We love our crested baby! Thanks for all the great videos!
I only am watching this video cause of the fine looking geckos in the thumbnail
Thanks for your help. We now have 2 crested gecko eggs 🥚.
Waiting, so excited 😁.
I love your channel guys! Waiting for my Crested to reach maturity than I want to breed em with one of yours!! Looking forward to it. Thanks a lot for all of the advice! Keep up the good work! 👌🏽👌🏽

Was just getting ready to breed my crested gecko so this helped a lot. Thanks :)
No problem. Glad this helped
At 7:35 "Even the Males. They can get beat up as well." Manny's face when you said that with the nod. Lol.
Manny knows from experience. :/ lol

Thanks again guys, great work! 😁

This helps me a lot and I'm probably going to breed my gecko soon they just need to be a little bigger. Do you think I could breed a male that doesn't have a bold yet?
You guys make some pretty critters!

"I got a lot of eggsperience" LOL
Can you do another breeding video update this was great info thanks.
Hi! Im thinking about starting a small breeding project with my crestie. Your breeding set ups look amazing, but what size boxes do you set them in? If you could reply a link to the boxes I could order a few and get breeding. Thanks Tiki Gecko's!
Awesome vid boys
Obrigado !

Great Vid!
thank you!
I have a question about breeding in a Bioactive enclosure. Is it a good idea with the "clean up crew"?
Yes
Do you put vent holes in the incubation box or leave it sealed to keep in moisture?
What do u feed them when they r breeding? Do u use the Pangea breeder formula w insects?
You mentioned breeding groups instead of pairs. When you do this, how do you track lineage?
Lol u dont
Did you cut the eggs? I noticed a pattern on the egg, that couldn’t be natural, as the gecko was hatching. Is that something that should be done?
How long should you keep a pair of gargoyle geckos together when breeding?
I see you have many eggs incubating at once. I assume that many are at different stages. Will the superhatch stay moist enough for the whole incubation of all the eggs?
good question, yes it will for the most part. I try not to add water and I don't have any holes on the container so the humidity stays in pretty long
TikisGeckos so I do not need to buy an incubator because you guys are doing really well for not having an incubator. I’m very new to geckos, I had no idea I can breed without an incubator
should you out the male in the females tank or female into the male's tank or just a new tank and add them together ? love the videos thanks
I usually put them both in a brand new clean enclosure but unless one of them is particularly aggressive you can throw them in either tank.
Uz are great! Do you have leopard gecko video?
i was looking at breeding my gecko with my brothers so this is a great help.
also i got to get me that t-shirt
If my crested gecko pair would mate one time, will it be only one egg? Or how many eggs can a female produce from only one mating?
Hi, if you guys have any leopard geckos and if you do can you do a leopard gecko breeding video
how much does it take a crested gecko to grow fully? love your channel. You are awesome breeders. GO ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok thanks
Hey guys, two questions. Is there any chance of a dimpled egg surviving? Or should I just toss the eggs an not waste my time? They dimpled within the first 2 weeks of incubation. Also, I had read that rotating the eggs was unacceptable? I'm guessing this is false?
What quart bin do you use for breeding pairs?
If I have a pair who had baby's can I take the best looking and breed it again ?
@TikisGeckos hey, how much of a problem is inbreeding with cresties/gargoyles? do you regularily seek to freshen up your bloodlines by trading with other breeders or isn't that really an issue with the new caledonians?
It can definitely make the genetics weaker but its not such a big problem with reptiles as it is with mammals. We are always adding new lines to our projects because we want to keep them as strong as possible.
How many geicoids do you have are you going to freedom because Michaels I love them so much
Isnt the best thing about having geckos to watch them evolve and watch your personal Bond with them evolve?
How do you tell if they have enough protein and calcium?
Hello! For the incubation box, should that just be kept in a dark area at 70-80 degrees? And how often should you check to see if they've hatched? Thanks!
@TikisGeckos
Question. If a female crested has specific markings is it possible to continue the markings on offspring?
Crested gecko genetics are most of the time very random. Its possible, but very hard to achieve.
Is repashy gecko diet a suitable food to feed them while breeding? And what if you only want like one or 2 clutches, how would you do That? Please help because I'm highly interested in breeding.
Repashy is great. There is no way to force your females to only have one or two clutches.
If you are keeping more than one female with a male, how do you know which one laid the eggs?
Do you keep the eggs in a incubator
Need that T-shirt!😭
can be as a constant feed only give Repashy Grubs 'N' Fruit ? My Gargoyle Gekkos flatly refuse to eat the insects of any kind as thawed and live (((
Yes I believe that is a complete diet but I also like to rotate between diets.
Try taking the head off of the live crickets so they smell the cricket juices. Mine immedeatly took crickets when I did that. Leaned this tip from tikis geckos
Do u have to breed the same color to color of geckos
Can you answer my question in the summer me and my friend will bread geckos zilla his (male) Pooter mine (female) is it ok? Pooters cage is on my channel
Great vids guys
Just wondering, can you house an adult male and two adult females constantly p (in an appropriately sized enclosure)
Yes you can if they are given a cooling period. Obviously you would have to watch the females to make sure they are keeping on the weight.
I live in Florida too, Can I go meet you to buy geckos? I would like to see them 1st.
Where do you get the t shirts
Can you make an giant day gecko breeding video?
What does a cross between crested and gargoyle be gargoyle been a female and crested be !?
Could I successfully breed geckos if I kept the same pair together indefinitely, or would it be better to keep them separate and introduce them only when breeding?
How could I purchase a gargoyle gecko from you guys?
Thanks
Do you house your females together when they are not breeding?
sometimes yes. You just gotta watch that they are not bullying each other.
15 years! That is a long time for a little gecko huh
I had Fertile eggs dent in how can i prevent that in the future
Get a substrate that maintains moisture and humidity to keep the egg from drying out
Increase humidity. Don't put water directly on the eggs tho, cuz they can drown
Wet paper towel folded up and put over the eggs
God i really like the harlequin patterns
How old is too old to breed? Got a 6 year old female that’s been a breeder but looks underweight/young
Do you guys still have blue tongue skinks, I want one but it has to be a baby or a calm adult blue tongue
We don't have any for sale at the moment but we are working on producing some incredible Northern Blue Tongues!
my geckos are prefect together. no aggression at all. they even sleep side by side or face to face. (1 male 1 female)
Do they cohab all the time?
i mean, that’s “cuddling behaviour” which is actually stress in reptiles
When r u going to do a vid on ur AFT geckos?
Soon.... very soon.... lol
Will the male and female be aggressive if kept together while not breeding?
Dezarai Crouter not really
Is it ok to house a male and female crested gecko together? I'm planning on her having babies, but I don't my boy to keep "raping" her and bothering her, or is it ok? I'd just rather not separate them since they get along so well and I don't want to buy another cage. What's ur opinion
Yeessss 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼
are the measurements ( 18x 18 x 18) in inches?
yes
Ive had my gargoyle ( gordon ) for about 6 years since he was a baby from a private seller. I have tried so hard to find him a female companion but why are thwy so hard to find?!?! At least they are in my area
How can I get one of your geckos
can i buy one?
buen video
muchas gracias Ana
+TikisGeckos where can I buy the superhatch
Sydney Sj Panda Express
I'm taking in two babies and i have a couple questions hoping somebody here can help me out!
I know two females are fine together for the most part, would males be okay if they are from the same clutch and have been together since hatching or is it a bad idea all around? Also i do not know the sexes so if one is a female and one is male, is there a chance of him impregnating her before i can even tell what the sexes are? I don't intend on breeding so i want to know kind of how early a female is able to get pregnant so i can avoid it.
Mari K You should definitely separate just in case they are of the opposite sex until you can take them to a vet or are for sure what their genders are. No you should not keep 2 males together, as for most reptiles, the males will eventually fight to the death to figure out who's dominant. Keeping them separate will also prevent this in case they are both males. In the video, they did say the males will have a bulge while females will not on their butts. Hope this helps
I knew males fight, but I've seen this channel and some others that house 2-3 babies/juveniles together before they are old enough to find out the sex and was kind of wondering what the circumstances are and when to separate them. That's why I was asking how soon a female is capable of being pregnant and specifically about males that are from the same clutch. Thanks though!
can you breed ones from the same cluch
Hey, I would highly suggest against it as inbreeding generally leads to deformities and bad genetics. My 'minimum' for breeding in families is 1/32 (so the geckos great-great-grandfather or above more.) Hope that answers your question.
I’m just here for incubating because surprise surprise my females laid fertile eggs. I got them together, and I know they were cohabited. She said they haven’t been bred but I seriously doubt both geckos would give me 2 fertile eggs each at the same time. I’m angry because it’s so irresponsible, I’m not prepared, luckily they take a couple months to hatch so I can make preparations but it’s so wrong to sell me geckos that have been bred without telling me!
Do you sell crested geckos? If you do how can I contact you? I want to get my first crested gecko and I am super excited!
There website tikisgeckos.com
I like the idea that I can breed a pair of geckos and then start trying to breed in signature markings.
why do they have no tail
What if my female gecko won't eat crickets anymore?
I was watching a video the other day And this guy went to New Caledonia where the crested geckos are found in the wild.he was say that CG have an internal clock that certain times of the year when the fruit is ripe there they may not want crickets.
"If theyre not getting along more than usual."
where did you get your crested gecko shirt????????????????
Amns San look up their website
we sell them at our website.

i have used hatchrite kept it moist etc etc but have had 12 eggs die after around 40 days -.- i did the exact same thing i did last year and they all hatched perfect only difference is i have a new male can you tell me why they all die :'(
Not.a.youtuber it’s possible that one egg went bad and spread to the others.
@@Goomiiu they are in separate tubs tho and when one dies i remove it form the two :/ could it be the male? i dont really know his background he was from a petshop
@@BEEASHTARDS I've never heard of such a thing. I'm not quite sure. If he has parasites I'm not sure if they can affect the eggs like that. Did the containers get washed with strong stuff or something? Really not sure.
@@Goomiiu nope always just water and i have no idea either they all hatched perfectly last year with a diff male i use hatchrite stuff they all hatched fine with it etc will try the other subsrait too and ive even lowered the temps. made them higher made them the right temp all cant hatch they try at 40 then die inside and we are using diff females aswell so cant be the females eggs
Could you do a abronia breeding video?
We havent had any luck breeding abronia yet.
oh, ok!
TikisGeckos
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🤜🏽
Im looking for a lily white
I love the video, but I have to say. A breeding pair and community of 4 need way bigger enclosures than what you recommend. A fully grown adult should have at least an 18 x 18 x 24 enclosure, and my pair I have in a 29g long conversion tank. I wouldn't recommend having this many animals in such a small enclosure
Meaning I wouldn't recommend this for beginner keepers, not saying it doesn't work for you guys. You have some beautiful geckos.
Agreed....5 geckos in an 18 x 18 x 24 seems a bit much
I’ve been looking at your geckos and they’re amazing but since they’re super expensive I can’t afford them so the little on the more expensive side because the regular crested geckos are like 40 bucks but if you just go to a regular like Petco near me they’re like 20 bucks but they’re not kept in good condition kept being fed the wrong things they’re in the wrong type of cages there Lily in the desert kind of thing but that is more for a leopard gecko
do a blue tounge Skink care video
We will do one very soon but take a look at the video where we tour Mannys place. We talk about BTS there too.
