When Kevin gets to talk and shares his knowledge that’s when this channel shines!
When Kevin looks up, he's accessing his Mind Palace.
Excellent video on enclosures and care! Kevin, tube/shop vac thing is awesome and I appreciate the substrate ideas. Keep up the good vids Donny
Excellent video as always Gentlemen,the revamped gecko cages are brilliant, plenty of ideas for people to use and adapt for there needs.
Lol. MORE. I demand more. Lol love this kinda stuff. When Kevin talks. It's always great info
Wow those breeder setups are amazing aith the drainage system! Super smart!!
Really Great Info Kevin! Super helpful! Wonderful video, Happy New Year!
Jim J dame to you ! K
Dreams do come true Haha thanks kevin / dony for the tokay gecko vids ! Love them and super informative
great job on today's video. really appreciate all the knowledge Kevin shared!
Hells yeah man! That’s awesome when you drop sweet tips along with the massive knowledge you do, I appreciate your enthusiasm. I’m sure you spend quite a bit of your time and staff’s time making these vids for us to enjoy... THANKS YOU MONGOL MANIACS !!!
Kevin you are so informational. You hold a wealth of knowledge. I hope I can be half as knowledgeable as you about different animals one day. Truly amazing, thanks for all you do for the reptile community
Good afternoon Kevin and crew. Highlight of the video was hearing Kevin to the tokay noise lol. Awesome enclosures. Have a good day!
As always you teach me something new in each one of your videos or pod casts. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!
Love these enclosures, gives me so many ideas for my long overdue rebuild. Definitely putting in drains now for arboreals
Awesome! I couldn't help but notice the knight anole sticker on the enclosure you were discussing bio-active substrates and drainage...would love to see a video on your thoughts and techniques with them!
Chuck Horne yes we love them too!!! We keep some. K
Great video! I love tokays, and keep them myself. Working with them is challenging but socializing them and getting them to the point where they're thinking and friendly is a fantastic thing. They really are tremendous animals. Two of mine are cbb and all the others are rescues and intakes from people who no longer wanted tokays; seeing the difference between cbb animals and imports/under-socialized animals is astonishing. thanks for all the tokay vids! if NERD ever breeds and sells tokays, it would be a dream to have a baby from your beautiful socialized animals!
Those enclosures are incredible and well designed Kevin !!! Great concept with the drainage so it takes less of your valuable time so you can address other things. Cool idea with the pvc and shop vac for drainage and got me wondering why more enclosures aren't made with a built in drainage system? I have my huge glass outdoor Argentine Boa set up with a pump that pushes the water into their shallow pool and sprinkler inside of their enclosure and use a pump to draw the off flow out and filter it and it goes back into my water storage tank so my water is constantly being recycled.
1softkiss thaa as no you. Your setup sounds AWESOME!!!!!! Lucky snakes! K
Awesome tip with the pipe in the substrate
I will definitely be using a pvc tube awesome tip thanks and I love your black dragons and croc monitors the best
What a cool setup for the gekos. Awesome video
Great video!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Tons of fantastic Information for the average/beginner tokay enthusiasts. So important for the world to know they are an amazing animal. Not at all a blood thirsty killer. Nerd Tokays 2020 ❤️🦎❤️ can’t wait.
love those enclosures, i need to make some of those in the future for cresties, gargs and white lines.
Happy New Year NERDs
Love your video's man 🔥🔥🤘
Thoes vertical Tokay enclosures with the drain at the bottom... GENIUS!!!!!!
I would loved to know more about the gecko breeding enclosures. How were they made? All that moisture with the mist king, what materials are used?
I'm glad Kevin mentioned GUT LOADING your feeders...
Here in the UK, our nationwide #1 pet branch (PetsAtHome) never feeds their grasshoppers. I asked them and they told me _"Why would we need to feed them?"_
Because the hoppers I would get for my crested gecko & bearded dragon, were in terrible condition. They would be soft & squishy, not crunchy, they would be slow & sluggish to move, they'd ooze this brown puss when bitten, they'd lose their colour, going light banana yellow instead of vibrant & eventually brown, many would die in the box, turn brown & rot.
I once witnessed what looked like the grasshopper biting my gecko!
Many would never leave their hiding spot under the egg carton in order to get the food I'd put in, it was just a complete horror show.
Awesome! Thanks! 🙏 All the best in 2020!
Love the video....keep em coming!!
Thank you Kevin love your videos. Information is greatly appreciated.
Awesome video on the Tokay’s setup, and care. I’ve been wanting a Tokay for a while now, and did tons of research before I bought one. Well a couple days ago at a show, I finally got one (wild caught) and I think I might have got lucky with this one!!! It’s defensive, like 99% of them, but it seems calmer than most I’ve seen. I got it out today, and of coarse you get the mouth open, barking, I’m a little tough guy, don’t touch me, or I’ll rip your finger off attitude, but using your hand near it, slow movements approach I caught it very gently, held it gently (not a death grip) talked to it in a soft, calm voice (don’t know if that helped, but figured it can’t hurt🤣) and pet it’s head with my thumb. It closed its mouth, sat there calm, so I slowly opened my hand(while still gently petting it’s head) and to my amazement, it sat there calm for about 10 minutes until I put it back in it’s enclosure!!! I know I still have a long way to go before it becomes trustworthy of me, but I feel pretty confident that we’re on the right path!!! Sorry for the long winded comment, but thought I’d let you know how much your videos, and knowledge help us in the reptile community. You, and Clint’s Reptiles have the best channels out there, and I also like your collaborations together.
Love the explanation, and it's taught with compassion.
great video. very impressive the Tokay gecko cages.
Cricket, Fruits, months, spiders, horn worms, slik worms, all kinds of roaches. Pause...Kevin pizza here...lol.
I love the black pvc looking gecko enclosures, where did you acquire such awesome enclosures?
V-Line Exotics I would like to know as well.
Kevin has mentioned in a lot of videos is that he makes a lot of his own enclosures. Maybe these are home made, if so his build quality is ridiculously good.
Its not hard if youve ever played with the model hobby and making terrain
Do you sell those gecko cages or have a tutorial on how to make the drainage system? This is the coolest idea ever and i'd love to buy this or do it myself if I have to, I just have no idea where to begin
Beautiful enclosures! How are they made !! Would love to know for a project on my tokays:)
I was waiting for Kevin to start doing kickflips and front shove it's with that fish eye lense
Happy new year will see you in 2020
Great video man👍🏼👍🏼.
Yeet I love your videos Donny keep up the good!
What is the name of the black net BOX case in the first half of the video?
You guys ever gonna produce some of the tokays?
A Socialized croc monitor?....DUDE!!
Also edit, Donny you're getting good ,can see that you are learning alot more and are starting to ask reasonable questions. My compliments sir.
Great video's 🤘
I was thinking you were gonna eat one of those roaches lol lol ❤️
Great content as always. I went Bioactive for my Tokay best decision I made lol Have a Happy New year to y'all
I love how anyone who walks in gets trashed for breathing... it's all love tho Haha
Do you have any really large Tokay's? I've heard alot of tales of giant lose ones in our local pet shops.
Know this video is old but would 1' Orange headed roach be perfect size for adult tokay?
Have you considered putting perf pipe to collect the low water?
Such great info 👍
When I was a teenager I went with a buddy of mine when he picked up his Tokay and he bought the biggest one they had at the pet store. It was huge probably 12' not even exaggerating. We got back to his house and put it in a 20 long tank with a screen top on it and we had to run back to the shop to pick up some supplies that he had forgotten to pick up. When we returned back to his place his older brother was standing at the kitchen sink washing his bloody hands and then he told us that he was checking the Tokay out while it was stuck to the side of its tank and for some reason he decided to stick his hand in the tank and wiggle his fingers. He said that it jumped from one end of the tank all the way across and latched onto his middle finger and wouldn't let go so he started waving his hand and it finally let go and wound up jumping from his hand to the wall and ran down the wall and hid behind my buddies bed. The bite was pretty bad and it actually bit right through his fingernail. We just laughed at him and told him that it was his fault for sticking his hand in the tank in the first place. That Tokay was a monster probably the biggest one that I've ever seen definitely not a lizard to take lightly.
Would wearing sunglasses to cover your eyes help? Not just with Tokays, but with all reptiles as you mentioned your eyes are a geeking point for these animals.
Those custom cages, are they pvc?
I loveeeeee my big male!! He is so chill and hangs out on me. Does not bite at all. Had him a few years now. Please keep the tokay videos coming!!❤❤❤🤣
Mike is cool
RRR Reptile learning to spell will help people trust your smart enough to pull it off
awesome video! make tokays great again!
You guys going to be at the Gettysburg reptile show march 20th ????
very old video so i probably wont get a reply, but imma ask anyway...as a first time reptile breeder would tokays be an "easy" start?.
I had always heard that citrus was a no go for feeding your feeder insects?
Will you be getting anymore Saluwesi water skinks ?
Nice info
Nice video, would have been nice to "see" a gecko
Fun fact, the natural instinct for people when thinking or remembering is to look up. In criminal interrogations, when asking suspects questions the investigators will note if they look up in recalling events as a suggestion indicating truthfulness or lying because of the subconscious tendencies to look up went recalling information.
Where do you guys get your tokay geckos since theyre wild caught? I know theyre invasive in florida so would you take them from there to cut the population?
Indonesia !!! Imports. K
Hey what happened to the baby Croc monitors?
I think I missed the baby croc monitors
next video dudebro - donny
How do you keep them heat light not to. Bust with water
Ted Sheltie halogens work well for that and lower wattage. K
My question is do you do your braid yourself? You always have one and I have to have someone do it for me, lol
Christian Grovom's Reptiles I have wondered that too!
A tuff animal to work with but somthing I do want to get into I do some of the new caledonian geckos now
It’s funny you use all the venomous analogies.. I always recommend Tokays as a good first dangerous reptile. 😂
What an intro !
I’ve always wanted tokays, maybe I’ll finally get some
Iv had mine for 2 months now and its tong feeding and not running when my hands are in the cage it takes alot to earn the trust of a tokay
I love RUclips and how I can Freeze Kevin. Until I want to listen again. I feel so empower. Just saying. 😎
Tracy Bagwell haaaaa haaaaaaaaaa. You go girl! K
Like a pixie Frogs their eyes sink in...Don't move if bitten. Like getting bit by an Alligator. You move, your skin is shredded, don't panic they sense fear. They don't want hurt you. They just want you to back off.
Keep still, put the Gecko on all fours. Play a video game, thumb text someone and act like it doesn't hurt. Watch a KIZZ video and Meditation is the best. Gecko will let go. Seek First aid. Then get treats and put it back in the cage.
That just me....I will find it later and let it calm down. It's not the Geckos fault. He scared. Your a giant...
Please tell me you’re all working on a leucistic tokays!
I currently have a Tokay gecko that was wild caught… I’ve had him/her for over a year and he/she still won’t let me clean out it’s enclosure.
I'm where the tokays r from. I'm terrified of them....I'm hoping watching ur videos would help but idk...😭 There is one actually outside of my bedroom window. And it make the noise like it's trying to scare me every night.
Did you say isopods, water bugs? That live in the sea, fresh water, and land?
When I was a kid I called them Rollie Pullies.
Hay, Kevin. do a "super nice"! Whats going on with the white cobra? I thought we was gonna get to watch it take baths???
Gary Dasilva oh geez I’m slipping. There will be more from Lilith, she has settled in very well and I’ve been getting to know her a bit. I’m quite happy with her health! K
@@NewEnglandReptile thats awsome thats why your the professional!
So, I like rocks not potty beads. Then you put down a cocomat....(ok continue... taking notes as I listen.)
Peal white, coco husk, potting soil. All in layers...or can I mix them?
Tracy Bagwell you can do either the trick is to get it to breathe a bit as depleting all of the oxygen causes that noxious anaerobic bacteria smell.... like a swamp! K
Pause, it's time....5:00pm.
What's up with the leucistic cobra? Don't want to speak for everyone, but I will...we want an update yo!!!
Healthy Bleach yessss there will be one shortly! K
Yo I can fuck with a tarantula, but cockroaches are just past my comfort zone.
I’m just glad they started recording videos where he shares his vast knowledge!
I know this is an older video so not sure if anyone will see this but more tokay content please 🙏 😁
Can you raise cockroaches in substrate
Ted Sheltie yes some of them like the orange headed roaches. K
Often you can rub the inside of a lizard’s mouth they’ll let go very quickly however this is not good to make it trusting of you
Live Streaming was great but too busy. All I can really hear is Donny. Rob and Jeremy needs to speak up. Kevin I can hear but not that we'll.
Now to my Barczky, I slept all day. I walk a mile and half in the Rain. Last night...now I am sick. I forgot I don't have a immune system anymore since my heart transplant. Which sucks!!! Sorry needed to rant.
Tracy Bagwell point taken! K
I give my bugs fish flakes , they eat them fast , with some water ,,,,,,,,,,,fast gutload
This lense is making me feel sick. Can’t watch it
Kevin is a hottie🔥
Channel brain barczk
Use a microphone
Ok those little cockroaches that is in people's houses, that has cause asthma and illnesses are German? What about The American, the Brown, plus wood and Periplaneta? It's not just the German, I can be wrong. Being a naval brat you see lots of bugs.
There are some that look like bed bugs.
Tracy Bagwell I was not being literal but Germans are the real common one that bother people. K
I just started to watch Brian barchyck's vlog and totally kept
Scrolling down and found Kevin's video.. I stopped watching Brian and am watching nerd's! I love you guys
Both are very entertaining and knowledgeable
I went back and watched Brian's. Lol. I just love nerd...
@@sheilamcintosh320 I go through both and snakebytes tv pretty much all day haha..even if it's running in the background I usually catch what's going on
please never use a fish eye lens for anymore of your videos, that was awful, great video once you get to the normal lens view
is it just me or are women that love reptiles a total turn on..
