Also for everyone watching. Please understand that some geckos will never be super calm or enjoy holding. If you’re getting a reptile you need to be ready to accept whatever personality it will have.

Staring at the grub for ages trying to decide if it's food is a universal gecko mood

“The gecko has no sense of direction, or you know, self preservation” I have never heard a truer statement about handling leopard geckos 🤣

"active at night" My little girl: SO ITS 2 PM TIME TO RUN AROUND

[stainface]

Baby leopard geckos can be so cute and so FRUSTRATING by just using objects wrong.

Mealworm bowl = bed
Water bowl = toilet
Cold hide = hide from spooky human
Heating = yes lets sleep in the cold all day and go basking at night.

Diego looks absolutely giant compared to this little guy on that one shot about handling

They're so cute!! I'm so excited to see their progress and growth.

I loved it when I got my baby leo. It took some time and patience and it even "squeaked" at me. But now, the handling has become easier and it has started to meet me at the front of the enclosure and try to come out.😊❤

This babe seems very friendly. My advice, don’t give up if they aren’t approachable at first. Our Leo didn’t seem to be interested in us and suddenly he couldn’t get enough. He sees us and begs to come out 😊He loves to sit on top of people’s heads, of course we always have more than one person around when he goes up just in case.

I'm getting a leopard gecko, a 5 month old male, I'm so excited! We are just sorting out last touches, setting up our UVB lamp etc. He is THE CALMEST gecko I have EVER held. He literally doesn't care who you are, he loves being handled and I just think its so cute!

We got two Leos a couple of weeks ago and just have been watching your videos. I love them so much. You’re so nice to listen to and watch! <3

A tip for easy cleaning is to place a small piece of napkin of paper towel where you notice them pooping. This makes it much quicker and easier without having to move everything around to grab the towel underneath. It also means you go through paper towels at a fraction the rate.

I remember when I got my leopard gecko it looked just like it, Leopard geckos are so cool to watch get bigger, Hope you will have fun with this little guy :)

Thank you! I just got 2 baby female blood infernos. One born September 2022 the other October 2022. My first babies ever! Thank you for all the time you take to teach us

[zyliagutierrez]

Aww I have one as well I’ve had her for about a year now I would definitely recommend to get one for a beginner reptile 🦎

[short_stack]

Sitting within a little pet fence is helpful cuz they can get off of you and explore and come back to you as they please. Plus if they dart, they cant get away. I've personally waited some months before starting to handle them, but that's just me cuz I didn't want to have to remove hides and stuff to grab at them. I wanted a slower more positive relationship after they get comfy and more curious about me.

This little guy is so cute!! Oh how I dream of having a baby leopard gecko one day. I'm not sure why it fascinates me so much but I'm REALLY excited for more videos of this little one because as time goes on they will get slowly bigger and looking back at the very beginning will be so heartwarming!! Also may I add that I love the amount of variety you're feeding?? I just know the little bugger is gonna live a happy life with you

[abilou]

Getting ready to pick up my baby! Waiting till he's 15g and I am so excited I could scream!

[jolenebardal]

This is so much good information. I am getting my baby leopard gecko next week and I’m so glad I found your videos!

[rogerthatren]
