When I added paintings from a calendar (by chagall, quite surreal flower paintings) and attached them to the walls my one leopard gecko just couldn't stop looking at them :D It was so cute to observe her trying to figure out whether she could interact with the background or not haha

Who else misses their geckos because of brumation? :, ) The clips of your little dudes just made me miss my guy sm!! Cant wait for spring!

I would love a crested version of this. We love our boy and anything we can do to give him more enrichment would be amazing

Had the scariest thing happen to me yesterday. Ordered a female adult leopard gecko off of morph market. Was sent on Wednesday through redline shipping. First delay was 24 hrs. Second one they tried was a 5 day delay. I got on the phone. My LeeLoo finally came. She was frozen and close to death. Had to hold her in my hands for over an hour before she was able to hold her head up on her own. Redline shipping said they saw my gecko was delivered safe and sound. Ya, frozen and hours away from death. Please do NOT use this shipping service, they use fed ex to ship your animal. They are not a shipping company and I will never back them

I’m almost starting to think it’s an issue of parasite overload that leads to issues of impaction, like pinworms. This isn’t to discredit the fact that there are still inappropriate substrates like calci-sand but if we did more research we might be able to disprove the continued myth these animals can only be housed on repti-carpet.

After doing a ton of reading, I've decided to go with the halogen & DHP heating. I have a DHP now, but since we are upgrading to a 40 gal, I think it can handle both with dimmers. Of course, that's in addition to the UVB light. Can't wait to see if it makes a difference with my "lazy" gecko. 🤣

So happy I found this channel and that it actually focus on Leopard geckos I’m just starting out with reptiles and this channel is helping so much ❤

[ambercorreia]

Loved this one ❤️ I’ll def be looking into this for my African fat tails, I’m getting them new leap enclosures !

[HappyCubed]

Finally someone who cares for these little creatures. Thank you soo much

I'm getting a second leopard gecko soon! Helps a lot, not only with my second ones tank, but my original ones tank to!

Your geckos are so healthy! Good for you. 👍 Theyre also adorable. Im seriously considering getting one. Pssst...Im 68 years young! 🌞

Please let us know if you decide to combine the halogen and DHP! I am so curious to know if your geckos' behaviour changes.

I remember when I added some fishtank background to Sahyu's tank for her. She freaked the heck out for some reason. I didn't try again after that. Maybe I'll try to make a removable one once she's out of brumation, since she's mostly sleeping currently and isn't at all interested in her Christmas and Birthday presents. I spent considerable money on them, but apparently nothing beats cut Tupperware with Eco Earth in it to sleep in. XD

Finally! A channel that actually mainly focuses on the actual care of these beautiful creatures.
I see so many people doing “how to” videos and just chucking in sand with a hide and expecting it to thrive, thank you so much for the good information and recommendations on other channels! 😄

im upgrading my baby leopard gecko to her adult enclosure tomorrow i already know she's going to love it

[Ragingreptiles]

I might get a leopard gecko because of you ☺️🦎

[shadowcloudgames]

My gecko runs to the front of her tank the second she hears my keys jingle to unlock it. It's adorable.

[morqaner]

is there a way to make the background with the corks and sealants removable? i'm worried about the wood and how you can sterilize it when it's stuck to the enclosure and is covered with foam and colorings?

[crestiecrafts]

is there going to be another one on crested geckos? normally I wouldn’t ask this but ever since my female crested gecko died my male has been very lethargic and barely moving around. He’s eating more which is great but I just wanna get him moving more

[christinerandolph]

These are so cool! Can’t wait to do them for my boy Mochi. He’s weirdly smarter than the other geckos. Which is not saying a LOT but he appears to have object permanence which I haven’t seen in a reptile before??

Unfortunately my crestie Cheeto has to have surgery so goodbye savings. Tank upgrades are just gonna have to wait.

I am curious how you deal with geckos getting into crevices when you need to do care for them like weighing or handling for health purposes. Do you just wait for them to come out?
