You have been such an inspiration. I am 60 and my gecko is 17 and I have been upcylcling and shopping and setting up a new home for her. Better health products and heating.. She is so confused and skidish these last 5 days in her new home. But she is loving her wet hide! She never had one before 😔 I didn't know 🙁 but it's never too late to improve. Still only goes from her old hide to the wet.. But I see evidence she is exploring the other hide probably in the night. THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH from me and Lizzy
It looks great! As a finishing touch I would just add a 'branchy' driftwood to fill up the empty space in the middle. It would really go well with the red rocks to give off a desert/canyon vibe :)
I've been watching your videos for some time, I find them so much more informative than most other people posting about leopard geckos and I just want to say thank you for your work. Last week I purchased a Blazing Blizzard from a local breeder, he's my first gecko and overall I think I can thank you for my decision to get him. His enclosure is definitely going to need some upgrades but I think Leonidas is happy at his new home
Geckos tend to poop in higher areas more when kept in smaller enclosures, presumably due to being unable to find a spot they consider far enough from their primary hides otherwise.
The point was and is, they wish to go in the furthest point from their main hides. If this is a high point it will be there, if it not logic dictates that be a corner in standard shape enclosures.
Love this build, the leaning rocks mimic formations I've seen in the wild. Also, my Loki ALWAYS picks the highest vantage point to establish his poop spot in every redesign I do.
Great video! I am going to be changing my female leopard geckos substrate back to Eco Earth because the reptile carpet didn't hold enough humidity and she did go in her humidity box enough.
I had a red light for 4 months and I kinda feel like and idiot....but I’ve had this gecko for four years and I have switched his light almost every year and now I’m sticking with one, I also had sand at one point....for and hour if that counts and I removed immediately, now I have a crested and leopard gecko named Carl “walking dead” so thank you so much for showing me the way ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
im 13 and getting my leopard gecko soonnnn, im so excited i’ve wanted one for months and i’ve been doing months of research! your videos are so useful! lysm 💕
Hi! I clicked on the notification so fast I might have broken my finger. I lost track of the time after I watched the video, so I commented late XD. I just came by to say YOU ARE AMAZING ❤️. Do NOT let anyone bring you down, because you will always rise up. You have helped me SO MUCH with my 2 month old baby leopard gecko named Pax. Thanks to you I learned everything I know now, and I also gave credit to you on my latest video! So awesome! From One Of Your Many Fans, Creative ~ ❤️
It looks great! I personally really like the different coloured rocks. The light rocks really stand out, the dark slate creates contrast and the red rocks add a pop of colour. Just my opinion ☺
Where do you purchase your tanks? I think they look beautiful, so is there anyway I could know where you purchase them? Or do you make them yourself? It’d be great to hear from you!
Gizmos new tank looks amazing! I am hoping to do a tank build like this for my rescue leopard gecko, Wren. I also found she likes to the bathroom in the highest spot!
Hi just wanted to say thanks! I got a crested gecko 3 days ago and your basically the reason why your videos are so helpful for me and gave me so much information. Thank you so much (his name is George btw) ♥️ x
Hi Rebecca, Gizmo certainly liked exploring her new setup :o) I like the colour scheme. I am glad to hear that some of your geckos like to poo from high up. I was worried my Leo was not going till I moved the bark to spot clean and found hidden treasure lol. After surruptitiously watching My Leo I found out what he was doing. A couple of weeks or so after I got him settled in I observed Him climb to the highest point on his cork bark to do his business with his bum over the edge between the cork and the background. I thought it was odd.... but He seemed happy with the arrangement lol. He also likes to rearrange the substrate and will moved it in the night until he has made a cosy bed by shovelling it with his back legs along his viv and into his warm hide. I often sit up late and watch him and my Cresties by the dimmest of light to see what they get up to :0)
Great video, I used to own three leopard geckos when I was a lot younger, looking into getting another now... preferably a high yellow! A good job there was no spoilers to the bodyguard on that newspaper 😂
I can’t wait till Christmas where I will (hopefully) get a bigger tank for my leopard gecko. I bought a ten gallon for my leopard gecko because a lot of sites said 10 gallons were good. But after a month I’m convinced it’s too small. But I can’t afford a bigger tank rn (the only free money I have right now is put aside for emergency vet visits and food and things like that)
Hi, thanks for time and effort and videos. Changed Sweetie cage from terrarium to vivarium, having problems with heating, still not there yet. Order heated cave, hopefully that going to work. Diane Southampton U.K.
I love your gizmo I Actually named my lizard gizmo after yours she’s a Leo leopard gecko and I love her and I love getting ideas from you for her tank I can’t wait to get her a bigger one and make her lots of cool stuff in there
Leopard Gecko thank you so much for commenting on my comment your the best I got a leopard gecko named Carl because of you and he’s 2 months old and his name is Carl
Nice little tank for gizzmo! Well done. But may i ask why you don't use real plants because you go for bio substrate.. Like Sanseveria as example for background plant.
Hey Leopard Gecko (and anyone else who may know) I was wondering if you think the All Living Things Heat mat can be put underneath substrate like yours? I did it thinking it would be okay and now I’m worried it could overheat or harm my gecko in some way. I’ve heard of a few people who did this for years and nothing happened but I’m worried about it. I ordered a thermostat and it’s coming in on Monday. My terrarium resembles yours, but mines a 30 gallon glass, with wood around the bottom of the tank for decoration purposes. If I needed to put the mat on the bottom of the tank for sure I will be making a hole on the bottom of the wood big enough for air flow. Also I have 1 centimeter of Bio Dudes Terra Saharra covering the heat mat, and a humid hide as well. Thanks for any input! :)
thanks :) yeah i tried to cut off as much as possible but either some wouldnt come off or it stained the background black even when i removed it, which sucks.
Rebecca where do you buy your expanding foam that you use in these amazing builds?? What size and make is that heat mat and how often have you had to replace any?
Hey, I was wondering about the tank it self, with the solid backside and sides but with a glass sliding background, and if you had a link for where you got it or if you had it custom made/made it yourself?
I just got it in a local reptile shop (the new branches that I added in my previous video). Usually you can find branches and cork, things like that in good reptile stores :)
I love the new build! I am getting a leopard gecko soon and I have few questions, where do you buy feeder insects? I am thinking of getting mine at a website called rainbow mealworms and I just want your opinion! Second, what reptile thermostat do you use?
"I live in an attic and I've got a box of wigs, I'm basically Roger." LOL
haha :)
I'm so glad I'm not the only person with reptile stuff all over my room. Great little enclosure!
hahaa it was such a tip as I had to get everything out to build it :') thank you :)
How do you use a habistat I’m so confused! Do you plug the mat in to it then turn it to what heat you want?
Same
I'M SO DAMN HAPPY
THERE ARE FINALLY LEOPARD GECKOS ON A LOCAL PET STORE!!!!!!
(Don't worry they have them in big tanks with 2 hides and the heatmat)
Good f
LUCKYYYYY
Leopard geckos are so cute when there exploring.

She looks so happy in there, it's so wonderful to see how much love and care you put into treating your geckos well!
thank you :) she seems to have settled in nicely :)
Wow the modified hide is very enriching. Gecko will be scampering and dig around and dig out a cave. Very thoughtful;)
It looks great! As a finishing touch I would just add a 'branchy' driftwood to fill up the empty space in the middle. It would really go well with the red rocks to give off a desert/canyon vibe :)
Ah i may have to try that, thank you :)

Son of Sarkhan how is he doing now? That’s awesome :)
Geckos tend to poop in higher areas more when kept in smaller enclosures, presumably due to being unable to find a spot they consider far enough from their primary hides otherwise.
Shane agree
My gecko poops INSIDE of her hide
yeah that probably makes sense lol though prior to this Gizmo would always poop in her cold hide! lol
@forASPIgamer123 Gaming Thanks for the update, Doctor.
The point was and is, they wish to go in the furthest point from their main hides. If this is a high point it will be there, if it not logic dictates that be a corner in standard shape enclosures.
You shoukd do more of these vids! It gives us great ideas and its super intertaining for people who like to create
karma the dragon fox why does your comment not have more likes
I love the new terrarium! You always make really good scenery! I’m think I’m going to make a cave like environment for my leopard gecko
aww thank you :) oo awesome, sounds great!
Very nice tank build. I'm sure Gizmo loves it. I know my leo would, Lots of climbing space, this is Ivar's dream enclosure.
Gizmo exploring is so cute! She was like "look at all of these rocks I can climb on!"
Love u leopard gecko! I am sooo close to get a leopard gecko!
Frediboy06 lmao im close too
Same my birthday is Halloween so I have been none stop researching I’m so excited there so cute
aw thank you :) ooo awesome! Good luck :D
@@leopardgeckotalk thank u Rebecca😍
I randomly saw a leopard gecko on google. Went straight to youtube, found her videos and with each one i see im closer to getting one.
I absolutely love the different tank setups you've posted. Thank you for posting.
Love this build, the leaning rocks mimic formations I've seen in the wild. Also, my Loki ALWAYS picks the highest vantage point to establish his poop spot in every redesign I do.
aw thank you :) haha i am glad my geckos arent the only ones! :')
yeah, I have a flat topped hide, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnndddddddddddddddd guess who decided to poop there
I’ve been wanting to change up all my geckos tanks lately and these tank builds are such great inspiration.
aw thank you :)
I love the old Western movie music at the end! It makes the video perfect
I’m ten, I’m going to be getting a leopard gecko soon. Thank you for all of the useful vides you have done.😁
Clicked on the notification so fast 😅
haha thanks :)
Your enclosure looks so so good! And I'm 100% sure that she LOVES it.
aw thank you :D
I've read that in the wild they often prefer old stone walls when available. Think some Leos live in pre-flood architecture lol I'm jealous
Great video! I am going to be changing my female leopard geckos substrate back to Eco Earth because the reptile carpet didn't hold enough humidity and she did go in her humidity box enough.
I had a red light for 4 months and I kinda feel like and idiot....but I’ve had this gecko for four years and I have switched his light almost every year and now I’m sticking with one, I also had sand at one point....for and hour if that counts and I removed immediately, now I have a crested and leopard gecko named Carl “walking dead” so thank you so much for showing me the way ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yay! I love your set ups♥️
wooo :) thank you :)
“i love in the attic and i have a box of wigs. so i’m basically roger” sooo laughed out loud at the one

You did such a great job! I think Gizmo liked it a lot!

thank you :) ah haha glad mine arent the only ones who do that lol
So cool and very enriching for the gecko :)
Man that soundtrack cracked me up! Spot on
haha reminded me of the wild west :')
You should do a video on how you actually build the box itself
Hi just wanted to say thanks! I got a crested gecko 3 days ago and your basically the reason why your videos are so helpful for me and gave me so much information. Thank you so much (his name is George btw) ♥️ x
aww no problem, I am glad I could help :) Thank you for watching my videos :) George the gecko, so cute ❤️
Show less
Thanks so much for being a great role model for me I have finnaly gained enough money and bought my first Leopold gecko thanks for the vids
9:38 OMG THAT IS SO TRUE, If my gecko could he would probably poo on the ceiling lol
Love your set up! Love the boom,boom,boom! You always give such good ideas and you look out for all your pets!
thank you :D
hi leopard gecko! I'm getting a leo for christmas this year, so im using your videos as research! I am using other sources, but this is the main one.
aw thank you :)
I got my first leopard gecko in September too!! Cool.
Hi Rebecca, Gizmo certainly liked exploring her new setup :o)
I like the colour scheme.

thank you :) hahaa omg that sounds like ziggy, she'll climb to the top of her rocks, hang her butt off the side, and poop in her cork planter :')
LOL At least She is putting it in the planter lols My Little man isn't so careful about where it lands!
Great video, I used to own three leopard geckos when I was a lot younger, looking into getting another now... preferably a high yellow!
A good job there was no spoilers to the bodyguard on that newspaper 😂
You are awesome thanks for the tips.
I'm currently doing my 3 leopard geckos viv upgrades and I love watching your videos for inspiration!
ah awesome! good luck :D :D
Thank you!!
Nice one Love it Happy days.
I can’t wait till Christmas where I will (hopefully) get a bigger tank for my leopard gecko. I bought a ten gallon for my leopard gecko because a lot of sites said 10 gallons were good. But after a month I’m convinced it’s too small. But I can’t afford a bigger tank rn (the only free money I have right now is put aside for emergency vet visits and food and things like that)
Silverfire 12 you could get a tub or a tank from Craigslist or petco’s sale
love how this turned out, awesome job!
thank you :)
Loving your channel. What is the background you used?
Hi, thanks for time and effort and videos. Changed Sweetie cage from terrarium to vivarium, having problems with heating, still not there yet. Order heated cave, hopefully that going to work. Diane Southampton U.K.
Thanks :) ah i wonder if you just need a more powerful heat mat? Also is your thermometer one with a probe so you can read the heat mat?
shall I even bother feeding my boy whilst in shed ? faboulous video thinking of upgrading my boys tank:)
serenity n Ella x yes, mine still eats when shedding. It depends on the gecko
thanks :) Yeah its always worth a try :)
he usually eats but he didnt this time so I am going to try tonight.
I love the new look
I love your gizmo I Actually named my lizard gizmo after yours she’s a Leo leopard gecko and I love her and I love getting ideas from you for her tank I can’t wait to get her a bigger one and make her lots of cool stuff in there
Very nice build!
Great tank! I am really wanting to do a naturalistic tank. This inspires me :)
aw thank you :D
i’m in the US, there is a store chain called Hobby Lobby that has specific species of fake plants and they look 100% real
I love the ending
thanks :D
Leopard Gecko thank you so much for commenting on my comment your the best I got a leopard gecko named Carl because of you and he’s 2 months old and his name is Carl
Nice little tank for gizzmo! Well done.
But may i ask why you don't use real plants because you go for bio substrate.. Like Sanseveria as example for background plant.
That music was so perfect 😂
hahaa :')
Finally got to the video. The music is amazing btw
So happy she loves her hide❤️❤️❤️p.s love your channel
Love how u said "Roger" xD

Yay!!! I love your videos. I recently got a crested gecko now I want a leopard gecko I just love them all😭
thank you :) haha they're both great :D
Hi, do you have a cool hide? And, do you have videos of how to put step by step the rocks on the wall? Thank you
What kind of water do I use in a leo enclosure?? Filtered? Tap? Bottled?
love the build!!
Wow!!!😁😁😁 such a cool tank!!!
thank you :)
👏👏👏👏 it looks amazing!!!! Great work!!
aw thank you :)
What kind of heating pad is that? My heat pad is on the bottom of the tank. Is it better to have it inside?
I told you it would be nice!!
haha thanks :)
Im getting a leopard gecko in like 40 Days!😁😁😁
Aleksander. Jervild gongrats!!
I love your channel so much! I recently got a Leo and I love him! My reptile room is a mess too lol
Gag Haha no one liked your comment
Its wonderful well done
thank you :)
Where did u get that terrarium?
Videos are so helpful
I love this! So awesome!
if you spray down the earth mix arid, doesnt the humidity get way too high?
Hey. Do you seal the corners of the viv? Or waterproof the bottom before you put substrate down? Or can it go straight onto the wood?
Do you have to put the heat mat on the right or can you put it on the left
I love the tank it looks incredible. I thought you were going to get rid of the black foam sticking out?
thanks :) yeah i tried to cut off as much as possible but either some wouldnt come off or it stained the background black even when i removed it, which sucks.
Nice video
What background set did you get?
Rebecca where do you buy your expanding foam that you use in these amazing builds??
What size and make is that heat mat and how often have you had to replace any?
OMG! I love this channel! It's has super great facts and ever since my leo died. I'm gonna get a new one on Xmas Eve. And thanks for the tips too.
How many hides should they have??
Do u think top soil is a good choice please answer I'm abt to get my leo soon.
I wish I could build something like this, I want to try so Leonardo has a better tank
5:10 not sure if you were joking or not. lol
Hi, what size tanks do you have, I’m actually wanting to get a back ground made like you have so was wondering what size tank you use. Thank you
Hey, I was wondering about the tank it self, with the solid backside and sides but with a glass sliding background, and if you had a link for where you got it or if you had it custom made/made it yourself?
Sliding door*
Finally you upload.
lol i upload every 4 days, pretty sure ive done this schedule all of 2018 :') I'm quite consistent
where did you get your heat mat and whats it called whats the price and how many wattz
Where did you purchase your wood branch for your chahoua set up I really like it and I want to buy one
I just got it in a local reptile shop (the new branches that I added in my previous video). Usually you can find branches and cork, things like that in good reptile stores :)
I love the new build! I am getting a leopard gecko soon and I have few questions, where do you buy feeder insects? I am thinking of getting mine at a website called rainbow mealworms and I just want your opinion! Second, what reptile thermostat do you use?
i've never used that website so cant say for sure. I use a habistat mat stat :)
rainbow mealworms is great!
Chloe L I don’t have a leopard gecko sadly but I use rainbow mealworms for my hedgehog and they are really good.
Megan's World thanks!
Anna Herrera thank you!
LOL at 5:30 did anyone else just think of a little OKKURR
hahaaa, i noticed that when i was editing it, sometimes i accidentally roll my letters :')
Love it
Thank you what supplements do you feed
