My male wants me to give him attention. ALL THE TIME. Every time he hears/sees me, he runs out and puts his claws on the glass. He also tends to sleep on me, possibly because I'm warm.
Stupid Stuff it's normal for an animal to sleep on you because you're warm just cause it does that doesn't mean they need a heat mat Ik they do but STFU
My 4th grade teacher kept two male leopard geckos housed together. They were kept with sand, had one hide, and the entire vivarium was warm and she didn’t have cold or humid hides for them. Once I decided I wanted one, I realized her care was entirely wrong. Her geckos were given away when she retired. My friend is keeping them now but with the same habitat, I might have to tell him//intervene soon.
+Aaron R true, though that whole ovulation egg situation doesnt pose much of a problem unless you have a fair few females feeding off each others pheromones haha
I heard about 3 squeaks from my really young leopard gecko his name is Jedi, I don’t know his gender, but so you’re saying those squeaks were farts?! *My gecko farts a lot.* I always thought he was screaming.
This is annoying on my other account I post vids every Tuesday and Thursday and have 20 subs but you haven't posted anything and you have 131 subs 😢😭😢😭😢😭
I have a question about the geckos hunting. I have two geckos, one will hunt for the food and the other will not eat unless I hold it up to her face, is there something I can do to make her hunt?
@@k_4nderson um...my leopard gecko, hunts. He sometimes doesn't chase it. When he doesn't, I tweezer feed him. (I have the food in the tweezers and wait for him to eat it) Try that, It could help it. If not, be sure to tell me
@@deerlalake Thank you for the reply! My male gecko will eat out of a feeder dish and I don't have to worry about him going hungry because he would literally eat any and everything lol. But my female is a little more prissy and I just have had to tweezer feed her. Some days she will only eat one or 2 small dubias. Some days she will eat 6 or 7. Slowly learning that they are pretty much complete opposites and I'm just going to have to cater to their individual needs :)
I'm not gonna make my gecko get the snip because I'm gonna breed him with some females because lately he's been looking like he's trying to escape to find some hot babes
What would you recommend for helping keep your male’s pores clean/healthy? I have a male (was supposed to be female) and I want to make sure that he stays healthy. Substrate, cleaning, etc?
Also males have a larger and wider head and instead of using their voice to attract females, they produce sound by rattling their tail. Both are quite similar in behavior towards humans. Both are very calm geckos. I haven’t observed what you said about males eating much more than females. Actually, the gecko with the greatest feed response I know is a female. Generally though, females will go off of food sometimes in the year more than males. Also I think females are more plump and have a fuller tail than males, even if they are smaller.
My male is half and half my female IS ADDICTED TO FOOD if I feed her a mealworm after a minute she thinks my hands are food for 5 minutes then she calms down but when I’m handling my female she’s very calm (not including feeding
my gecko tenses up on me too. he'll squeeze my arm with his back feet and often give me scratches with his sharp little claws !!! he kind of squirms around when he does it, so i just figured it was him scent marking or something.
Diego your male leo reminds me of my male Ziggy in that he seems to like to be handled and is very tame lol, anyway awesome video I've noticed similar behaviors in my geckos as well like my males will often clean their hemipenes especially after they shed.
I bought my baby boy on Craigslist where the lady had 4 males and 1 female. She only had 3 terrariums. The female had her own terrarium while the boys shared. Guess what happened? I bought a gecko with no tail! (He's okay tho)
Sodium, atomic 11, was first isolated by Humphry Davy in 1807. The chemical component of salt, called Na, in honor of the most saline region in the world, North America.
I just got a gecko a few days ago and the people at the store didn't tell me if its a M or F and Gex (It's name) isn't ready for me to hold it yet. Any other way I can possibly look? Without scaring the crap out of Gex.
i just got a leopard gecko last Sunday, his name is Sushi he’s a juvenile albino, i’m not sure if he’s a morph or not though, found out he was male when he shook his tail when i was feeding him, cutest thing i ever saw, but he’s such an angry boi... he screeches at me...:((
I have done all my research from your channel! thank you so much! I have two questions, I am trying to find a just vitamin supplement with out the calcium in it for powder. I have already found powder with just calcium so I can do both separately, and there won't be too much calcium with the ones at the pet stores with both.. is it okay for just calcium and then the other powder with both and that won't be too much? .. Does the vitamin spray work for the geckos? And my second is how hot and how long do you keep the heat mat on for through out the day and night?
Do u suggest using reptile carpet because i had a small tank and we built a bigger one. I dont know what substrate to use so for now i use newspaper. He has a 15 -25 gallon tank ( not to sure) with exo terra hides
I am switching to Eco Earth soon (pre-made bag version)! Pretty excited because I think it will look cooler. Any tips when using it? Ive also just started feeding mealworms in a dish, but the crickets should be ok with the substrate right?
Mine are VERY different in size, but are both 7 years old. I have no idea which is male or female, I just love them both dearly. They are housed in separate tanks and meet very rarely. They have never fought before, but the bigger one waves his tail very fast whenever he sees the smaller one. Not sure if that’s good or bad, but I like to get them somewhat stimulated. Should I keep doing that, or is it bad to do?
So I have (2) year old geckos that have been housed with each other since I have gotten them. They are both in a 40 gallon breeders tank. They hang out with each other all the time and have no aggression towards one another. I'm a little confused now about their housing. Should I go ahead and get another enclosure and go ahead and separate them or should I continue to house them together? Like I said there has been zero aggression from either one for a year now that I've had them.
My gecko hunter was a pet store gecko and was treated very badly and only comes out if he here's men's voices how do I get him to be comfortable with me?
My gecko tends to croak at me a lot when I hold her. I just walk her in my hands. Is this common or could she be experiencing pain that I don't know about? : (
I know this is 8 months later but mine croaks when he seems to be "annoyed" at me and not happy with something I'm doing lol. Like, if I told him wrong and he is uncomfortable or if he just does not want to be touched or picked up.
My girl's tail is the width of my thumb, and she ovulates regularly(not sure why). She's three years old, and she still launches herself at her food like Diego lol, guess I got a tomboy.
Wooden vivariums like hers are difficult to get in North America. Look into a 24x18x12 Exo Terra (or bigger, bigger is better). Check Craigslist for cheap second hand ones.
my gecko just crawled onto my hand the first day i got him and i think he is a male. he also sometimes copies me too. i rested my head on my hand and looked at him and then he sat in his bowl and did the same thing
Hi, I'm just wondering. Which is better? Carpet or Eco Earth. I just switched from sand to carpet yesterday. Is carpet okay for them? I also think that one of mine is gonna lay an egg.
I recently got(read "rescued") two male leopard geckos from my younger brother, we got them from a guy who had kept these two geckos together since they were hatched, they have had no fights since we got them, but I'm planning on moving them to a bigger tank(as they are together in a fairly small tank) should I separate them when I move them? They haven't been aggressive at each other, but I'm scared that may change when moved to a better tank. Advise?
Amp1 Buddy I mean if they're not aggressive with one another in a small enclosure I doubt that will change when they have a larger one and can more easily avoid one another is they so choose. But it is generally better to keep each gecko in their own tank I think.
+Leopard Gecko i have to leopard geckos together male and female he never fights with her and she is fine with him so is it always if u put a male in female together or what?
+Leopard Gecko hi I am going to get two geckos females around the same age and been in the same enclosure for their whole life is it okay to keep them together
+Maya Torres Don't do that. The male will try to mate with the female eventually. Geckos don't breed all year round, They breed during the warmer seasons
Leopard gecko 🦎 is this the same with crested geckos as well or are they different if they are different then please can u do a video on crested geckos 🦎 male vs female because I am really interested in crested geckos and I might be getting one soon so I think that it will be quite helpful if I know the difference between the two sexes xx 😘 love ur vids and I think that u r an amazing 😉 RUclipsr so keep going u r doing amazing 😉 xxxxx 😂🤣👋👋😘🤗🤗😘😂👋👋😘🤗🤗🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻🦎🦎🦎 I now love geckos thanks to ur videos and I might be getting one very soon and u have really helped me to learn more about them and the right place to get them, the right equipment that u need and everything that u can think of u have helped me with choosing weather I would like a gecko 🦎 and I will get a crested gecko 🦎 and I need a tall tank because they love to climb and be up high xx they don't eat live food 🥘 well they can but usually they prefer to eat non live food and more of a paste kind of food and I also don't like crickets so I think that the crested gecko 🦎 will be perfect and then by sister is getting a bearded dragon which I was also considering on getting then I saw ur videos and now I am 100% certain that I want a crested gecko rather than a bearded dragon or a leopard gecko and u have helped me with that decision so I think that this video will help a lot of people like me so I would really appreciate it if u could do that for me xx I love u xx don't feet to keep up the good work stay positive and have fun xx love ❤️ u ❤️
Pretty much what she just mentioned applies to crested geckos. The only thing is they dont squeak but will chirp like a bird at times. The behavior depends on the crestie, some are relaxed and love handling, some are very jumpy no matter what. They're not aggressive and if you tick them off they give you plenty of warning before they strike which is more of a shock factor than anything since they have no teeth. Females should have their calcium sacks checked if they are carrying eggs and they can become egg bound. And males can sometimes try to mate with your hand. Other than that they're pretty easy and fun to care for :) ive had my cresties for over 5 years now and havent had a single tail drop luckily. Do be careful cause they can get spooked easily.
Even if you're not into insects i would still offer some occasionally doesnt have to be crickets you can give a few waxworms as treats absolutely no mealworms they can't digest them. It's incredibly good for the geckos diet to have that and fun to see how much they enjoy it. I'm deadly afraid of insects but once a week i buy around 5 crickets per crestie and let them loose in the enclosure the geckos go nuts for them and its fun to see them hunt. If you need help on a feeding guide then go with your high quality powdered formula however many times your gecko needs to be fed, dusted gutloaded insects once a week and you can do a fruit mash once a month. I tend to puree some mangoes, and add water and repashy or pangea to it, then feed the mix they go nuts for it. I would be careful with feeding pieces of banana too often because it can constipate them. I hope I helped you out in any way.
This was really interesting to watch, because so much of it contradicts my own experiences >w< Not that that's a bad thing. Just that, my females don't go off feeding as much as my males, and the fact that my giant lavender stripe girl is one of my smallest geckos. From what I've seen, size has nothing to do with the sex of the gecko. I have a really slim/small male, a huge chunky girl, and the other way around.
Quick question about leopard geckos.. i just got one and he seems to not want to lay in the hide that is directly above the heat mat and instead lays under the leaves beside the hide that are not in a the warmest area. Can i take the hide out and use the leaves as a hide? He never goes inside the hide that is there for him for heat. I think its more of a safety thing because i feel like he feels alot safer behind those then under a rock.
Well i think he may not be use to a heated mat he may just like to stay hidden under something cooler my leopard gecko doesn't have any heated stuff in his terrarium but he has a lot of hiding places so it may be because he'd rather hide himself under something cool, but I'm just saying
Thanks for the reply. i decided to take out the hide and put more leaves over there (btw they are fake leaves with vines) and put them all over the heated area.
Well I got an baby that wasn't with humans but the only thing u did is play with it for 2hr a day or every other day and he's tamed only for 3 mouths but all leopard geckos are different
Hi Leopard Gecko. I'm getting a 1 month old Leopard Gecko and I don't exactly know how often I should feed him or what is best for him to eat at this age. I've done some research though no websites seem to give clear answers so I've come to you haha. If you could give any insight I would be very grateful... Thankyou! (Sorry if you've been asked this lots of times.)
i have a female that bites EVERYTHING around the food {my fingers, pants, bedsheets,] enything, when shes hungry! its actually funny to see her so exited over food but she gave me a nasty left-jaw scrape across my finger a little while ago and its now a 1 inch scab. she's crazy LOL the other girls i have are uzually very gentle though.
I have a question for anyone who can answer this(something I am wondering about). How do you know what the gender is for leopard geckos while they are still young? And I know that because they’re so young, the (possible) male hasn’t “grown” there pores. But I was wondering what they’re gender is. I have 2 leopard geckos that I had thrown myself into caring for them(not the smartest idea) while only having a little bit of knowledge about them. Once I started watching your/her channel, it had educated me about geckos and what and what not to do. Which is also very helpful 😆. Anyhow, umm I have 2 geckos, I asked many of my friends that have geckos and lizards of their own how to find the gender of the geckos, and they said that one of them is male and the other is female. But the thing is, is that I’m currently housing them in the same terrarium, which will soon be a problem as they grow up. But I’m not sure if they are both male and I don’t want any problems happening between them as they get a few months older. I have already grown attached to the 2 leopard geckos even if I had only had them for 2 weeks. It’s very stressful since I am 12 years old, and having school. But it’s a good thing that they are nocturnal because I will be able to do my school work and during dawn or at night I can care for there needs. Do you have any advice on how I can identify the gender at such a very young age?
I'm planning on adopting a leopard gecko soon, but I have no idea what gender to get. I thought about just not thinking about it and getting whatever gecko I like the best despite the gender, but being the impatient little animal fanatic I am, I kind of want to plan ahead as I did for my chinchilla. I originally planned on getting a female, but after doing a little extra research I'm worried about the ovulating process. I do not plan on breeding my leopard gecko, and I feel like it would be difficult during those certain seasons when they lay the duds. If anyone has any advise, I would be very thankful! x
actually, dogs dont change much after castration. sure, they might not have certain tendancies like jumping up on people and other dogs, but usually they have the same personality.
Great video! I had a leopard gecko for 3 years but then he got a skin disease and I had to get him put down 😔 but that was like 8 months ago and I was going to get a pair of geckos this time because I felt my other one was lonely, although I did spend alot of time with him but after watching this I'm scared to get a pair haha, what if I get a pair for sisters? would that make any difference, or just a pair that have been together since birth? anyways great video can't wait for more!!!
Question there is an animal center where I live (they get there info from petsmart ) but they housed two males together they aren’t territorial at all. I don’t think both are males. Is there any reason they are acting like that?
PetSmart is a terrible place to get info from. They will snap and seriously injure or kill each other sooner or later. Sometimes it takes a few years, but they will fight.
With normal geckos is it normal that their figures are normally a bit less bulky I gues slimmer like not to thick like I just got mine as a gift and seems to be about 6months +/- a month and looks like yours at the end of video and is prob as thick as a normal permanent marker thickness. Maybe a bit thicker. Is it normal.
My male wants me to give him attention. ALL THE TIME. Every time he hears/sees me, he runs out and puts his claws on the glass. He also tends to sleep on me, possibly because I'm warm.
Same lol
rhoneas tryout ting a heat mat in the cage if he sleeps on tour because your warm
Do female Leopard geckos have a certain pattern Because mine has a line on its back
Stupid Stuff it's normal for an animal to sleep on you because you're warm just cause it does that doesn't mean they need a heat mat Ik they do but STFU

I’ve been calling my Gecko a girl for about a month now...
It’s a boy!
same thing here but my gecko was a boy i learned it after 3 months
Your profile makes this 10x funnier
How can u tell?
Johnathan Ellison i am getting a gecko in a month so i should watch this
How you tell the difference

i think males are easier to care for just because you dont have to deal with un-fertile eggs from the female which could cause egg bounding and such.

is there any way to tell if they're a male or female when they're young?
Yeah I got mine a couple days ago
check the bottom of it has a couple of dots like right above the tail underneath it’s a boy, if it has nothing it’s a girl

Albino is a morph. And females will shake their tail when hunting too, so they could be either gender

I use eco earth
They can get their teeth/claws stuck on the carpet. I use eco earth, but you could use other coco fiber brands or a bioactive mix
Paper towels are perfect imo. May not look the prettiest but easy cleanup and there feet wont get stuck.
I’m getting a leopard gecko soon which one is better for beginners
I am switching to Eco Earth soon (pre-made bag version)! Pretty excited because I think it will look cooler. Any tips when using it? Ive also just started feeding mealworms in a dish, but the crickets should be ok with the substrate right?
The crickets will be fine

Definitely don’t let them interact any more. The tail wave likely means he wants to mate with your other gecko.

I seriously wouldn’t house the males together... Are you breeding them?
yea, bu they seem to live perfetly fine with each other, also every time a female lays a egg i put her in a different terrarium so its all fine
My female loves ppl, and bei g held! My female has yet to lay slugs so I am kind of wondering
U sound cute! Loved the video i have a male geico trying to find a female for him.
hey i just got a leopard gecko like a day ago and how old do they have to be to determine gender
how would you know when they are going to shed
Their color will lighten

Amp1 Buddy I mean if they're not aggressive with one another in a small enclosure I doubt that will change when they have a larger one and can more easily avoid one another is they so choose.
But it is generally better to keep each gecko in their own tank I think.
Hello I know this is an old video but why would you put two of em together wouldn’t they pass infections
When your gecko tries to breed with you...
Makes a lot of sense my female has the personality of the female personality in this video and the same applies to my male good job
+wayneson tay thanks :D
+Leopard Gecko i have to leopard geckos together male and female he never fights with her and she is fine with him so is it always if u put a male in female together or what?
+Leopard Gecko hi I am going to get two geckos females around the same age and been in the same enclosure for their whole life is it okay to keep them together
+Maya Torres Don't do that. The male will try to mate with the female eventually. Geckos don't breed all year round, They breed during the warmer seasons
Leopard gecko 🦎 is this the same with crested geckos as well or are they different if they are different then please can u do a video on crested geckos 🦎 male vs female because I am really interested in crested geckos and I might be getting one soon so I think that it will be quite helpful if I know the difference between the two sexes xx 😘 love ur vids and I think that u r an amazing 😉 RUclipsr so keep going u r doing amazing 😉 xxxxx 😂🤣👋👋😘🤗🤗😘😂👋👋😘🤗🤗🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻🦎🦎🦎 I now love geckos thanks to ur videos and I might be getting one very soon and u have really helped me to learn more about them and the right place to get them, the right equipment that u need and everything that u can think of u have helped me with choosing weather I would like a gecko 🦎 and I will get a crested gecko 🦎 and I need a tall tank because they love to climb and be up high xx they don't eat live food 🥘 well they can but usually they prefer to eat non live food and more of a paste kind of food and I also don't like crickets so I think that the crested gecko 🦎 will be perfect and then by sister is getting a bearded dragon which I was also considering on getting then I saw ur videos and now I am 100% certain that I want a crested gecko rather than a bearded dragon or a leopard gecko and u have helped me with that decision so I think that this video will help a lot of people like me so I would really appreciate it if u could do that for me xx I love u xx don't feet to keep up the good work stay positive and have fun xx love ❤️ u ❤️
Pretty much what she just mentioned applies to crested geckos. The only thing is they dont squeak but will chirp like a bird at times. The behavior depends on the crestie, some are relaxed and love handling, some are very jumpy no matter what. They're not aggressive and if you tick them off they give you plenty of warning before they strike which is more of a shock factor than anything since they have no teeth. Females should have their calcium sacks checked if they are carrying eggs and they can become egg bound. And males can sometimes try to mate with your hand. Other than that they're pretty easy and fun to care for :) ive had my cresties for over 5 years now and havent had a single tail drop luckily. Do be careful cause they can get spooked easily.
Even if you're not into insects i would still offer some occasionally doesnt have to be crickets you can give a few waxworms as treats absolutely no mealworms they can't digest them. It's incredibly good for the geckos diet to have that and fun to see how much they enjoy it. I'm deadly afraid of insects but once a week i buy around 5 crickets per crestie and let them loose in the enclosure the geckos go nuts for them and its fun to see them hunt. If you need help on a feeding guide then go with your high quality powdered formula however many times your gecko needs to be fed, dusted gutloaded insects once a week and you can do a fruit mash once a month. I tend to puree some mangoes, and add water and repashy or pangea to it, then feed the mix they go nuts for it. I would be careful with feeding pieces of banana too often because it can constipate them. I hope I helped you out in any way.
My cat still got his balls and he has not scratched me in 5 years hes really calm with me for some reason
This was really interesting to watch, because so much of it contradicts my own experiences >w< Not that that's a bad thing.
Just that, my females don't go off feeding as much as my males, and the fact that my giant lavender stripe girl is one of my smallest geckos.
From what I've seen, size has nothing to do with the sex of the gecko. I have a really slim/small male, a huge chunky girl, and the other way around.
my little boy is named James and he is so cute
Quick question about leopard geckos.. i just got one and he seems to not want to lay in the hide that is directly above the heat mat and instead lays under the leaves beside the hide that are not in a the warmest area. Can i take the hide out and use the leaves as a hide? He never goes inside the hide that is there for him for heat. I think its more of a safety thing because i feel like he feels alot safer behind those then under a rock.
Well i think he may not be use to a heated mat he may just like to stay hidden under something cooler my leopard gecko doesn't have any heated stuff in his terrarium but he has a lot of hiding places so it may be because he'd rather hide himself under something cool, but I'm just saying
Thanks for the reply. i decided to take out the hide and put more leaves over there (btw they are fake leaves with vines) and put them all over the heated area.
I'm getting a tremor albino soon, and if it's a male I'm naming it Deigo, or if it's a female I'm naming her sunset!
I'm getting a leopard gecko and I'm wondering if it's better to get a older but tame leopard gecko or a baby leopard with no experience with humans
Well I got an baby that wasn't with humans but the only thing u did is play with it for 2hr a day or every other day and he's tamed only for 3 mouths but all leopard geckos are different
Ok I'll go check the baby out and see how he's like with me
Hi Leopard Gecko. I'm getting a 1 month old Leopard Gecko and I don't exactly know how often I should feed him or what is best for him to eat at this age. I've done some research though no websites seem to give clear answers so I've come to you haha. If you could give any insight I would be very grateful... Thankyou! (Sorry if you've been asked this lots of times.)
Feed babies everyday, juveniles every other day, and adults every 3-4 days. I don't know what to feed them though XD
+TheAsian Cheetah Ah it's okay, I talked to her on Instagram and we sorted it all out, but thankyou anyway :3
Well I haven’t tested this yet but I hope my one is a male and his (or hers) name is Ringo
i have a female that bites EVERYTHING around the food {my fingers, pants, bedsheets,] enything, when shes hungry! its actually funny to see her so exited over food but she gave me a nasty left-jaw scrape across my finger a little while ago and its now a 1 inch scab. she's crazy LOL the other girls i have are uzually very gentle though.
You are very helpful
Sorry I said that wrong do you know the colour he is 😀
Morph?
I have a question for anyone who can answer this(something I am wondering about). How do you know what the gender is for leopard geckos while they are still young? And I know that because they’re so young, the (possible) male hasn’t “grown” there pores. But I was wondering what they’re gender is. I have 2 leopard geckos that I had thrown myself into caring for them(not the smartest idea) while only having a little bit of knowledge about them. Once I started watching your/her channel, it had educated me about geckos and what and what not to do. Which is also very helpful 😆. Anyhow, umm I have 2 geckos, I asked many of my friends that have geckos and lizards of their own how to find the gender of the geckos, and they said that one of them is male and the other is female. But the thing is, is that I’m currently housing them in the same terrarium, which will soon be a problem as they grow up. But I’m not sure if they are both male and I don’t want any problems happening between them as they get a few months older.
I have already grown attached to the 2 leopard geckos even if I had only had them for 2 weeks. It’s very stressful since I am 12 years old, and having school. But it’s a good thing that they are nocturnal because I will be able to do my school work and during dawn or at night I can care for there needs.
Do you have any advice on how I can identify the gender at such a very young age?
I love my gecko 🦎 I don’t know if it is a girl or boy yet
what's their name?
Nice video
I'm planning on adopting a leopard gecko soon, but I have no idea what gender to get. I thought about just not thinking about it and getting whatever gecko I like the best despite the gender, but being the impatient little animal fanatic I am, I kind of want to plan ahead as I did for my chinchilla.
I originally planned on getting a female, but after doing a little extra research I'm worried about the ovulating process. I do not plan on breeding my leopard gecko, and I feel like it would be difficult during those certain seasons when they lay the duds.
If anyone has any advise, I would be very thankful! x
They probably won't lay anything, leopard geckos don't usually lay as much as Rebecca's
Fiona Shepley Okay, thank you. I was just worried about that :)
Ali Beecroft I would get a male, males live longer and if you just want one, male is properly the one for you
They don't necessarily live longer (well, female's who've been bred don't live as long), but yeah you wouldn't have to deal with ovulation
I have a bell sunglow and I have him in a 40 gallon tank but I have a divider (at the half way mark) it that fine?
You don't even need the divider so long as there's plenty of hides
GECKOS FART😂
I'm starting to think that my sweet leo Yamori is a boy XD
is there a way to tell the sex of the gecko as a baby or do you have to wait until they grow up
You can once they're a few months of age
actually, dogs dont change much after castration. sure, they might not have certain tendancies like jumping up on people and other dogs, but usually they have the same personality.
It shot out so fast!
Great video! I had a leopard gecko for 3 years but then he got a skin disease and I had to get him put down 😔 but that was like 8 months ago and I was going to get a pair of geckos this time because I felt my other one was lonely, although I did spend alot of time with him but after watching this I'm scared to get a pair haha, what if I get a pair for sisters? would that make any difference, or just a pair that have been together since birth? anyways great video can't wait for more!!!
I hope you didn’t get a pair unless you have a 40 gallon tank
i just got a leopard gecko and i named them ollie i’m trying to figure out if it’s a male or a female😁
i have a leopard gecko and i call mine Linguini
I'm getting a leopard gecko, I was going to name it Leo but I don't want to anymore, any name suggestions? (Male)
Savanna is Gay fred
Savanna is Gay maby berry mine is berry
Savanna is Gay my gecko name is Leo 😂
Savanna is Gay
Dart
Steve
Idk lol
Scruffy!!!
Question there is an animal center where I live (they get there info from petsmart ) but they housed two males together they aren’t territorial at all. I don’t think both are males. Is there any reason they are acting like that?
PetSmart is a terrible place to get info from. They will snap and seriously injure or kill each other sooner or later. Sometimes it takes a few years, but they will fight.
Cool video...
My leopard gecko bit me as I helped him take off his shed 🥲🤚
Hello from 2023 lol
Great video
With normal geckos is it normal that their figures are normally a bit less bulky I gues slimmer like not to thick like I just got mine as a gift and seems to be about 6months +/- a month and looks like yours at the end of video and is prob as thick as a normal permanent marker thickness. Maybe a bit thicker. Is it normal.
When they're that young, it's normal for them to be skinny
