    When your gecko is so fancy, it needs a human glass to drink water...

    One eternaty later..LOLROFLOL>..you have great humour!!!LOL And I really do love the way you add to your vids!! Where does one find one of these? I would love one...but not sure they are here in Canada. Looks like it has both crested food and live too. Anyway, I thought I would tell you I now have 2 babies from my leopard gecko pair. And they are SO CUTE!! They look alike, even though from 2 different egg batches. So daddy is dominant:) I took pictures, so will try to post them for you. It is all I will try to hatch for now. I am keeping the first baby, and will find a GOOD home for the second one. Maybe keep both!:) I love critters...especially those that don't make me have asthma attacks. . Oh, my crestie lost his tail....oh NO! But, he is doing fine. I do find he does not climb as well anymore however. Darn. Was a very strange experience seeing that happen! I was working around the tank and suddenly crestie just freeked out. awwww, I felt SO bad...Thanks for showing us how to do this the right way.:) LOVE IT! As usual

    • @leopardgeckotalk
      @leopardgeckotalk  7 лет назад

      aw thank you so much :D haha im not sure, they seem easier to get hold of in america lol, lots of breeders there Aww how cute! :') I'd love to own an egg and wait for it to hatch out, would be amazing, just waiting on one of my geckos to miraculously lay a fertile egg haha. Sorry to hear about your cresties tail, maybe if you introduce wider cork branches if may be able to get around a bit easier? Maybe worth a try haha :)

  • @yeseniaquinones8497
    @yeseniaquinones8497 7 лет назад

    Glad you enjoyed your first week with your new gecko! I have a name suggestion: Bough, a thin tree branch, like in the nursery rhyme Rockabye Baby. I figured, since the type of gecko you have is naturally found on tree branches and it loves the tree branch in its tank

  • @EightJane
    @EightJane 7 лет назад +1

    those was super interesting! love how sneaky it thinks it is. maybe give it a name that's simular to that? I know that's not your usual name "theme" but it's so cute and thinks it's so sly

  • @JinxRebel69
    @JinxRebel69 7 лет назад +2

    from google searching this gecko, i was a little skeptical on its looks, thinking it looked kinda ugly... but now seeing it in action, its actually really cute!

    • @leopardgeckotalk
      @leopardgeckotalk  7 лет назад +1

      haha when i first showed my family a pic of a chahoua they were like :S ew why? but actually yeah they're really sweet, and although their skin can make them look rough, they're really soft like a crested gecko :)

    I can't believe this video is 7 years old. I remember this. I remember being so jealous cause I wanted one so bad. Well GUESS WHAT? I finally got one!! I started watching your channel in 2017 when I got my 1st Crested Gecko. I still have her. But then I kept adding Crested Geckos(I have 4 total), then I found a Gargoyle adult for a cheap price as she was in poor shape. She been amazing since I got her but will forever be missing a toe. I'm guessing whoever previous owned her didn't know how to keep humidity ok as she had an awful shed stuck on her. Anyway I FINALLY found a Chahoua where someone was willing to take $250 Canadian. It's my most expensive gecko. But it's a tiny baby and I am already so in love. I named it Zombie. I know you've mostly been the leopard gecko channel but I am a New caledonian girl lol

  • @XwolfbaneXx
    @XwolfbaneXx 7 лет назад

    Leopard geckos aren't crepuscular. They are Cathemeral, meaning they are awake during random intervals of the day when it's beneficial to them. There was a paper done on Leopard geckos that has evidence that supports this; as well as those in the military seeing Leopard geckos out and active during the daytime.

  • @austinburton9247

  • @JTBReptiles
    @JTBReptiles 7 лет назад

    Where did you get it from? My crested gecko is attracted to movement more than scent when live food is involved, so maybe try using tongs to hold a mealworm of something that will wriggle or feed in a box where the crickets can run everywhere. Let me know how you get on!

    • @leopardgeckotalk

    • @leopardgeckotalk
      @leopardgeckotalk  7 лет назад +1

      well any new pet should be kept in quarantine for 9-12 weeks. But it will never interact with my other geckos so as long as i keep my hands clean, and the area around the tank clean, everyone should be fine.

      @edretheria135 7 лет назад +1

      Leopard geckos are honestly the best for begginier reptile owners. They're the least expensive to maintain, they're super docile and are very low maintence. I really recomend you start with one of these... but personally I just think anoles arent that cool, though its probably because I'm a floridian and they're everywhere here xD.

      Ive heard anoles are actually pretty tricky, if you maybe want something a huggy lizard. Go for a blue tounge skink. They eat quite a bit but otherwise they're very docile and love handling
