This was a really good video man! I thoroughly enjoyed the way you spoke about the geckos with a mixture of love and appreciation towards the animals while staying really informative. I you want some feedback, honestly there is nothing i can say to put hate on your videos they are bloody good the camera is a beautiful must, the script (if there is one) is great! the audio is fantastic basically the entire thing is of a higher quality of most other reptile channels that i have found no disrespect to other channels at all. For the love of God you better keep putting the out takes at the end as they are a nice little touch.
Keep up the good work!

I work at a Petsmart and when I first started working in the petcare department, our Crested Gecko jumped on my hand and ran up my arm to the top of my head. ever since then I fell in love.

why the hell does this guy not have 100k yet, he is so good

[deusregnat]

Also, they squeak and it's ADORABLE! Some don't use their voices, but others are "outspoken" enough to discuss important gecko issues on YouTube.

"As for availability, we're giving these guys a 4 out of 5."

*Majestic gecko flop*

“Right.... here!”

The gecko falling keeps reminding me of the Futurama episode where Fry is buying Leela a christmas gift at the only store still open, a pet shop. He could buy a $500 parrot or a swarm of 500 lizards for $1/each.

Girls like swarms of lizards, right?

Crazy gecko jumps, clint catches it somehow with one hand.Then continues to talk as if nothing happened. 😂

I LOVE the fact that you add times in your description for the different categories, it makes it super easy for people who want to return to the video again to find something! Another great video, I am so excited for the next one :)

[maxcovfefe]

I'm not even a lizard person (dog person here), but I cannot get enough of these videos! I never had a lizard, don't particularly want a lizard, but damn, these videos are fun!!

I'm researching like hell for getting one of these geckos. I had one as a young teen and my father didn't research care for him, rough-handled him, and generally just followed whatever the petstore said (he was a rescue we got from a breeder but we got his enclosure and food from a pet store) and I was too young to know any better. I loved him so much and I want to make sure when I do purchase one again I know how to take care of it properly so it lives a long and happy life

[podoplanin]

I love how excited and passionate you are in all of your videos! It is so much fun to watch them. You can really see he loves what he does and that shows me every time why I study Biology myself! If you're not gonna be big here then something is really wrong.

[pickledips]

I love when the lil man did a jog in the beginning after jumping

[aalymontenegro]

Oh. It's when you bleed "uncontrollably" the lack of platelets result in difficulty clotting so the blood just keeps coming.

[Rachel-ehxj]

i have a lil jumper as my first. Love him so much

[tiannavivianroberts]

1:27 "if you like one that's a nut job then this ones for you"

That's too funny 😂😂😂

[dakotaalexander]

I just got my crested gecko today. I am so thrilled. Reptiles are my favorite animal s

[aaronking]

I love you and snake discovery you are so helpful I got a Cresty because of you keep up the good work :)

[muddw]

This is for all geckos, but I love how whenever they want to latch onto something, they sorta reach their little hands out. It's adorable
