Pictus Gecko, The Best Pet Lizard?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 янв 2020
- Pictus geckos (Paroedura pictus), also known as the ocelot gecko, the Madagascar ground gecko, and panther gecko really might be the best pet lizard. They are easy to house, easy to feed, and easy to handle. These are amazing pet geckos. The real question is simply whether or not the pictus gecko is the best pet lizard for you. So, is it?

Who loves Clint’s Reptiles 👍
I do. And I love all of you that have made it become what it is today.
I do to ❤️❤️❤️🦜🐊🐍🐢🦎
🙋♀️
I think the better question is who doesnt? :D
@@ClintsReptiles you make the absolute best reptile videos on youtube. Just got into reptiles 4 ish months ago and i have binged all of your videos! You single handedly got me to spend $500 on a gargoyle gecko too haha. Now just looking for a male for her!
USE A LID USE A LID, ive seen mine climbing the glass. Seriously. clean glass too.
One of my girls likes to do that too 😂 i'm always shocked to see her standing on vertical glass just like a crestie
your positivity is so infectuous that i actually just went "hi clint" after your "ohai there!", by myself, with my headphones on
cringe
They look like they're the texture of tiny basketballs
Omg so true
They are actually mostly just soft, kinda like a silky fabric. Most of their scales arent big enough to be individually felt.
Lol that's actually really accurate
Pictus Gecko: The extended Clint cut
Up close and personal!
That's pretty much right on.
It’s funny because a few hours ago I was looking for a care on them, there’s not alot of care videos on RUclips
Perfect timing!
Clint's Reptiles I have a leachie gecko and I’m wondering if I should use a heat source, my room is always around 18-20c but when I pick him up he is always quite cold.
Do you need a humide hide with a leachie?
Probably just a humid enclosure. You can use a heat pad on a thermostat, but excessive heart can be dangerous for them.
Clint's Reptiles thanks
In these ratings you should show a picture of the enclosure
The Strong Bad reference!!!! And we thought you were rad before!
“You no me”
I also have always called my son Trogdor. I don't know why, but it just seemed right.
Ha, I love it! When my wife and I were first dating we found out both of us had watched strong bad emails before we met. Smooth sailing from there. ;)
I believe I know why they became rare. Pictus geckos are from Madagascar. According to the owner of the Texas Reptile Zoo, Madagascar stopped exporting reptiles several years back, and when they resumed *only* exported CITES-listed species. This means that non-CITES Madagascar species, which were mostly wild-caught before the export moratorium, are now only available captive-bred, and since the non-CITES species are generally the ones which were less in demand (even though they include some really cool species like Malagasy iguanids, zonosaurs, and Malagasy hognose snakes), there weren't a lot of people breeding them. And for most of these species, there probably *still* aren't many people breeding them, because most people, sadly, just won't pay CBB prices for a pictus gecko or a zonosaur.
Which I'd ironic because of how easy Clint said they are to breed.
I don't think this is the case because they have been bred for a long time and are so easy to breed. They likely just fell out of popularity which happens to some species
"We're happy you pictus"-Clint's geckos
The most important question: do they eye mlem?
Thank you for making me chuckle ^-^
Plz we NEED ANSWERS
most likely, i see no automatic eye mlemers and they didn’t blink throughout the video... we need ANSWERS!!
I have pink eye and it’s contagious snjsjsbsjdn finally i have a proper word for it
THEY DO MLEM!!!!!!!!
Hi Clint,
Just want to note that I have had my little guy climb almost to the top of the glass, i think the only reason he didn't make it is because there was some condensation.
Please use a lid!! :)
I ordered my Pictus from Josh’s Frogs today. I’m so excited!
Rewatching this video and giggling a little because we have about 41 Pictus gecko eggs from this year that have been slowly hatching out. They are super cool little dudes!
Watching them stalk prey was one of the best parts. They literally stalk.
My first once stalked my praying mantis through the glass between them... and the mantis stared back. I wish I had a picture, it was very funny especially cuz they were about the same size (huge mantis, subadult gecko)
Loving these little gecko videos! If they’re not already on the to-do list you might want to think about adding viper geckos, super tiny, super easy care, super cute, super over looked.
YESSSS I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! My students are going to love this!!!
Let me know what they think :)
@@ClintsReptiles I absolutely will! Officially became a patron today!
Thank you so much!
So nice I'm watching it twice
It's better the second time 😅
That gecko is same as stenodactylus?
Oh this is precious. I enjoy the close ups!
You never know how much you love something until it is gone...
Beautiful quick turnaround there, y’all! Thanks! 🙏 Your pet gecko there is super cute! Wonderful close-up footage! Best.
It helped that the video had close-ups already. I don't know why they didn't export. I'm sure glad y'all let me know.
Clint has better taste in content than RUclips's algorithms!
Love seeing the close up!
Thanks clint 4 that close up wonderful
I didn't even planning to get any pet at the moment, but the way you bring the information about the animal it's so good and entertaining. Pretty good
I'm so glad you can still enjoy our videos. More knowledge is never a bad thing :)
Please thank your crew for this fast work (assuming you don't edit)
A video teaching us about how you breed these amazing geckos would be SUPER AWESOME! Thanks for this fun and education video, I’ve rewatched it multiple times :)
Thanks for the added visuals 👍🏼
I love their eyes :))
I think they are awesome Clint! Great to see them featured 👍🦎
This is the chihuahua of geckos right here.
I think that title goes to the mourning gecko
I discovered and fell in love with these guys a few months ago. Finally got my hands on them at a local expo last month. Admittedly, I love my leopards more so far for personality and handleability, but I’m sure that’s down to the individual animal. The pictus sure win for bug-eyed cuteness!
What's the difference between the personality of the leo and pictus?
Ahhh, NOW all is right with the world 👍🏼😍🦎Thanks for the re-upload my friend 🙏🏼
This is the first time we've ever had to do that. I'm glad you guys pointed it out so quickly.
Clint's Reptiles Been subscribed for a long time and know when something ain’t right ;) We’ve got your back and we’re looking out for you 👀
Can flying geckos be next they are awesome in both appearances and behavior
Did you find them looking for pictus geckos on morph market? That is how I developed an acute NEED. I couldn't find a gliding video, and my life will not be complete until I have a gliding sized cage so I can see it.
Their little webbed feets!
As always , this video is awesome!!!!😊
Helmeted gecko next please !
Clint, excellent video! I'm a bit of a Paroedura picta fanatic, raising hundreds and hundreds and I felt you were right on with the information, especially your comments on over breeding them. Very good. A couple of points- when they grow back their tails, while they are not turnip shaped like leos, they are stubby and do not appear like their original tails. Also, they DO benefit from UV light (like all animals). While they are nocturnal (look at those eyes! :) they are crepuscular also and some UVB lightings is a benefit. But excellent info!!!
He looks a lot like my Gargoyle, Chester! Especially the snout. Thanks Clint!
Was waiting for this one, nice work :)
Cute gecko. Good video. Thanks for sharing.
6:15 they do climb suprisingly well when inclined to. My younger male even recently made it to the ceiling of his enclosure. Their pads are too small to walk up glass easily (except as babies, the babies can climb rediculously well) but there is a trick my geckos found out independently about climbing up in corners.
I love your videos, continue like these!
I have been waiting for this video for ages! I have a pictus for a year now. They are adorable but mine don't like me. Thanks for sharing all this great information
I had these year's ago. We called them panther or ocelot geckos back then. I almost forgot they existed! Great vid!
You just read my mind...I wanted a video of this little guy! Great video as always!
If you ever come to Colorado, they have these guys in multiple shops 😁
Well hi there! I'm here today watching an updated Clint's Reptiles video...
Oh, I like this episode better already :)
Just picked up my first pictus gecko at an expo this morning! She is so precious and I know I'll be getting more in the future... I'm already in love❤😂
So happy there are close ups after all! I have to admit I was a bit disappointed about the lack of close ups at first, didn't want to complain about it because you're already making us all these amazing videos so it didn't feel right to complain, but this is making me very happy
They are even cuter than I already saw 😍
Ridiculously easy to breed! My pictus female has been laying eggs without breeding and they are hatching! Parthenogenesis I'm amazed
The eyes are GORGEOUS! My leo is jealous.
I've been aware of pictus geckos for a while but now they're on my reptile wishlist
Hello clint i love ur videos because of you i have had many lizards and snakes thank u for the information goos luck!👍
It makes me very happy to see lots of other people that love Reptiles
The eyes on that gecko! What a pretty guy. Geckos seem to have some of the prettiest eyes out of all of the reptiles I’ve seen.
Nice StrongBad reference at the end!!
I breed pictus geckos in Toronto Canada. I own some morphs, such as xanthic, anery, and a possible new one. Use a spoon to collect eggs. Very happy to see a great video about them. My big special male is 6.8 inch's. I have seen females climb glass. However I find only the young really climb.
As far as I currently know, Madagascar has closed all flora and fuana exports. 90% of pictus on the market were wild caught.
Hey...
I'm thinking on getting a pictus.. hows there personality? Like are they the same as a leopard gecko?
Ooohhh!! I need one!! So cute!! 💕
Those eyes are sorry intense. Amazing little lizards! Thanks for bringing those to our attention!
I don't know why they are so under the radar.
I love the color around their eyes
Lobe your vids , keep up the good work
1. Great video. 2. I will always smile with a Homestar Runner reference.
For any UK friends, the RSPCA currently has one of these lil guys!! Also corn snakes, carpet pythons, royal pythons and others so if your looking for a reptile please try adopt as they rarely get adopted :)
Panther Gecko(pictus gecko) is very cool pet!!
I’m breeding them, too.
Very cute, and active :)
Just learned about these little guys and came here to see if Clint had a video about them and sure enough 🙌
We watched the first one you posted . I said to my husband .... What the heck , where are the close ups lol.
I'm glad you guys let me know. I don't know why they didn't upload.
We still watched it anyways 😂. We will probably watch it again . I can't count the times we have watched your videos about the scaly littles we have ! Bearded dragons , leopard geckos , uromastyx and blue tongued skinks . Clint we have a rescue leopard gecko , we don't know genetics . He is now 7 months old , 92 grams and 9 inches . Cheeto is gonna be huge . He is rad 👍.
Love the Reptiles! They are absolutely amazing!!! Is there possibly another link for the heat pad? The one on here isnt working?
dang I wish I knew you were looking for some. I breed them as well in utah.
Saint Louis petcos have had plenty for a year now, before that I never saw them. Either way I love mine
Hey Clint! I was amazed by your videos and decided to get a reptile, Do you recommend pictus for a newbie? How much would I spend to house it correctly?
I miss mine, and will be getting a pair soon. I had a 20 colonies of 4 to 1, and sold them back in 2006 unfortunately had all of the different morphs.
They can live in a 10 gallon right?
Your videos are so amazing!!!
Thank you so much! We certainly do our best.
I just got 5 babies today! I am so excited!
I actually found a pair sold online for like 40$, that's the reason I came to this video. To see weather or not to get some.
I just love my little Pictus Ghidorah I got in November
Their big eyes and head remind me of sleestaks. So cool!
woo! less than an hour’s wait!! i love this gecko! :D
It's nice seeing them a bit closer.
Clint's Reptiles it always is! :D
I love paroedura's. I have 4 p. pictus, They're amazing.
The sorta-common-but-not-too-common species always seem to come and go in waves. A few years ago you could get baby Mexican black kingsnakes for $30-50, now they're $200+.
I have had my first succesfull tarantula breeding today! It was a pair of t. Ockerti
Super rad little lizard, you should do a video on Madagascar giant water skinks! They're awesome
How long is their lifespan? These guys look awesome! Love your videos brotha!
Very underrated species and it's bizarre why they aren't more common. I used to breed tons 20 years ago
I was looking for my first lizard recently and turn out my local reptile shop had two of these guys. It was the first time I saw one of these (aside from this video) and of course I had to grab one of these guys and I love him to bits hahaha he is an awesome eater. We only have to work on handling ( he is a verry tiny and shy baby XD) but we will get there eventually haha
This is the one for me. Really hope I can get one 😊
Thanks, Clint, now I want another critter 🤔😁. Well done. What temperature do they prefer?
Can you do a video over Chinese Cave Geckos? I’m super curious and they look so beautiful
They are great little explorers
Looking closer!
Hi Clint hopefully you see this and respond, thank you for your inspiration into reptiles I got a fire salamander at the mo and love them dearly, I want to get a mourning gecko next keep up the good work
Amazing gecko clint
Pictus geckos are probably the cutest geckos out of all of them
I think them and knob tail are close competitors
I had a super freak accident recently with my leopard gecko where she got stuck in the crack of my bed because I took my eyes off her for a second and she unfortunately passed away. Your videos and the way you are so friendly have helped me in the grieving process and I cannot begin to express how amazing of a person you are, Clint.
I'm sure it was an amazing pet, rest well buddy, I hope you're doing better now
How did she die? Did you not get her out?
@Motho I didn't realize what happened for several minutes and by the time I got her out she was limping. Think she had a heart attack or something. She was super old for a leo (born in like 2006) and was malnourished from her time with her previous owner.
You should make a video of the western banded gecko
Love Ur channel got a few ideas for picture gecko
Thank you. That's exciting!
Wow I'm early. Love your videos, keep up the good work!!
It was reloaded lol I was so confused when I got another notification
#notificationsquad
With close-ups this time!!!
@@ClintsReptiles clint do you have any advice dor stynodactylus?
PS - those EYES! 🤗😱
Right??
Thanks to you I bought one from Craigslist and im ordering him a female. In my opinion you're easily the best reptile page on RUclips
How many gallons?
@@thatrandomcat3479 20 Gallon tank and I've found that they hate lights
I say he doesn't shave until he hits 300k subscribers 😜
Great video as always chief, I appreciate your work.
Hey can you do a video on Anolis Maculigula or Rueda's Anolis
Clint, do you have any advice or reviews on collared lizards? I have seen the aqua flames and they are beautiful.
I used to have one... I miss her so much. :'(
Bruh! I caught one outside yesterday and I was like “what kind of gecko is this?” But he was so sweet.
I live in the mid west so we have the absolute unit known as the missippi map turtle. It would be nice to have a video on them
