On the snug fit comment at the end I can tell you my Leo went from a medium zilla rock lair and then when I put a large lair in her tank it was like the mediums didn't exist any more, they became climbing accessories. She loved the mediums when she was a baby though around the 5-8 month old range. I imagine every gecko is different but mine loves the extra space in her large.

I am the interim between the rescue and the place of surrender for a severely neglected leopard gecko. I’ll only have her for a couple nights but I googled humid hide for her shed, accidentally hit your video and dude. I watched the whole ass thing lol. You’re great!

[flowermitch]

I’ve came across your channel and just binged watched a lot of videos. I have to say I’ve learned a lot and you explain things very well. I watched 2 of your videos and got my answers that I’ve searched many videos for precise answers, thank you!

Thanks for the pro tip on substrate money savings! I am door dashing from tractor supply everything but the moss I already have! Mr. Twisters mind is about to be blown. He's mostly on rock and a really lazy attempt at moss/hide lol

[melaniemitchell]

Your videos are so helpful. Thank you.

I've been looking for this, Helps so much!

[GabytronPR]

Exactly what I needed, simple and perfect explanation, thank you! So is size M for the Zilla going to be good to my gecko when he grows to an adult?

[jaidynmacomb]

Should we keep the top of the plastic container on it when putting it in our leopards habitat? Or does it not really matter?

[LuisMendoza-tdvo]

Finnaly someone that gave me the answers I needed! But one more question what type/brand of moss do you buy from Home Depot or Lowe’s? I wanna buy in bulk as well but want to make sure I buy the safest moss. Thank you so much for the help!

I have a leopard gecko and I rescued him from my grandson. He has MBD he’s doing really good. I have a humid hide the tree trunk and it doesn’t seem to like it very much so I bought the one from Zille like you showed a medium, but it seems so small. Do you think it will be OK for him to walk up and it’s not gonna be too rough for him thank you.

[survivish]

is it ok to only use vermiculite for the humid hide?

[abhisheknagabhushan]

Not sure about lizards but i feel it’s better to make hole on the top for snakes. Hole on the side causes the moss to come out 95% of the time when snake uses it. I hope lizards don’t make a mess as much as snakes. Anyways appreciate for the video.

If i use sphagnum(?) Moss for the humid hide, how many times do i have to clean/change it?:0

[MartyB]

I’ve heard not to use and not to use sphagnum moss for geckos. Not sure what to do with it

[pamhouweling]

The large is best for an adult leopard gecko. In a medium, they just fit snugly. Even for a baby, get the large. Because of the way they are designed, they still feel safe. I also bought them for my crested geckos and gargoyles as a humid hide as I have females and they make great nesting boxes. My girls toss duds.

[tiffanirichardson]

can you use leaves from outside to put in substrate?

[trevandchief]

Just an idea not sure if it would work just wanted to ask what if I put hydro balls along the wall of my DIY or bought hide from a store and covered the floor with substrate and then moistened the hydro balls and covered those up with substrate as well and then spray the substrate to contain a lot of humidity would that work or would it be too much humidity?

[wheresthedonutss]

helooo. i was wondering if u could do a baby beared dragon beginner guide video instead of a grown beared dragon or maybe u can just tell me in the comments. i am getting a baby beared dragon tomorrow and ive seen all ur vids about beared dragons and i know everything i need for the grown ones but i have no idea if its the same thing for baby ones too

[rayitodesol]

Hi! Thank you so much for this! Should the humid hide be placed on the warm side or cool side of a gecko’s enclosure?

You might even be able to just burn a hole by using the lighter flame alone.
