  • My leopard gecko loves me, but if I tried to do any of these things he'd look at me like I'm an asshole. A talking asshole whose time would be better spent fetching crickets. Reminiscent to "Bitch stfu and get me a sandwich."

  • 106 PEOPLE and counting obviously have day geckos

  • I LOVE GECKOSSSS I WANT ONE!!!!!!! ΓΑΜΑΤΟ ΡΕ ΦΙΛΕ!!!!

  • I LoL'd at 0:51 looks like the Gecko was playing Call of Duty, Black Ops. That just looks hilarious!! Loved it!

  • You do all that with a TOKAY?! Tokays are notoriously aggressive.

  • that gecko is so cute i am wanting one are they hard to take care of and do they bit

  • Wow nice gecko man! :)

  • I skunk gecko hangs upside down from my hand like yours,, but that is amazinmg how he can balance like that, how old is your gecko? He is beautiful, thanks for posting this vid! :)

  • thats brillant - you should make a "how to tame gecko" tutorial... and i think my next little buddy will be a tokay!

  • this kind of gecko was a highlight in SEA when there was a rumor saying that its liver can cure aids...... people willing to pay thousands of dollar sometime untill milion just to get a kilo of this.... ps; its still unproven ....

  • @umai21 Yes, but unfortunately a tokay gecko liver cannot cure aids. I've read about that too, and it's just a bunch of bs.

  • How much are these guys?

  • Ur gecko is awesome!he must be a nice lizard.

  • how is your today so nice

  • not very spectacular in my opinion.

  • @FAWEXX It wasn't meant to be spectacular, so no big deal.

  • @alexmortillaro Lol yea im pretty sure the video wasn't meant to be mindblowing. it was adorable though!

  • haha thats to down! :D

  • How did u get ur gecko to do that?!?

  • You are awesome!

  • loooooooool

    

  • nice gecko what type

  • @bryanmiami Thanks, It's one of my favorite species of lizards. To answer your question, the scientific name is lookinthedescription. They are commonly found in youtube, but only few have actually taken the time to observe them while searching.

  • @alexmortillaro wow, your gecko has a high level of trust with you. Neat, i want one but I'm not sure how to take care of them.

  • @alexmortillaro Oh, lookinthedescription is an elusive creature indeed. Though I hear they are quite similar to the isaiditinthevideo. Both seem to outfox the majority of the youtube community.

  • @bryanmiami its a tokay if belive so

  • cool

    

  • i hope he won the war

  • i like the oe where he or she was sitting up

  • I love your video! Your gecko is so beautiful, is he a tokay gecko? I want to get a peopard gecko, and have enjoyed learning about all the different breeds and colours :) How lond do they live for? Is a 10 gallon okay for 1? And what kind of bedding do you sudgest for the cage? No sand though, i hear it is dangrous

  • Yes, this is a tokay gecko. I used to have a leopard gecko, they are much different. Sand is okay for leo's only, you just have to make sure it doesn't contain silica, so natural sand isn't a good idea. I used calcium carbonate sand. Tokay's require a high humid climate, I use coconut fiber and soak it with water mixed with moss. Tokay gecko's can live anywhere from 10-21+ years in captivity. I'm actually using a 10 gallon for my male because he doesn't like to climb very much in the cage.

  • @alexmortillaro use*

    

  • @alexmortillaro ok, thank you for you help! I have a 10 gallon, and what food would you recommend? ARe wax worms and mealworms okay as long as i put the calcium on them?

  • @reininghorses57 Yeah, it really doesn't matter. I normally feed mine crickets, but wax worms will be fine once and a while, they just have high fat content.

  • @reininghorses57 Sand looks cool, but if your leopard gecko is an aggressive eater he might swallow a lot of it. Eating a bit is okay but if he eats too much of it, it kind of turns into cement in their stomach and blocks their digestive track. I just use paper towels. Its so much easier to clean up, he can't eat it, and its cheap. Small crickets are good for baby leos so they can actively hunt, waxworms are good treats, and my adult Leo prefers mealworms (too lazy to chase around crickets).

  • @Charginasaur Thank you for the tips... but I actually ended up getting a White Lined Gecko. And I also got a crestie :) I have videos of them if you wanna see :)

  • 0:51 GET TO THE CHOPPA

  • I like how you have it standing up, that's really cool. That's a Tokay isn't it? How long did it take you to tame? I heard they can be very aggressive. Really cool either way.

  • Super gecko! :D

  • sell this gecko to circus, you will be billionare, like bruno mars

  • Awww that was too cute!

    

  • Amazing!!!

  • ADORABLE THUMBS UP I LIKE THIS VIDEO!!!!

  • AWESOME! I HAVE NEVER SEEN A TOKAY GECKO DO THAT! The 1 @ the end is FUNNY! LOL

  • cool

  • Sgt. Gecko

  • It's so fun

  • aww  it looks so adorable

  • Wow! Your gecko REALLY trusts in you! Awesome.

  • awww so cute :P

  • Very cute gecko =) P.S. i just got a brand new gecko and im lookin for names here:  watch?v=QTr1NhmiT2g

  • holy crap i just jizzed myself that was so amazing

  • i love looking at lizards they look so cool,but i dont wanna touch em cuz i think it would feel grosss holding one, are they slimy? how to they feel like?

  • It depends what lizard, but tokay geckos and many other geckos are not slimy at all. their stomach, chin, legs, arms, and under side of the tail are extremely soft while their backs have a rough texture of thorn like bumps. it's actually quite nice holding them in your hand.

  • @VanillaSkeet idk why gecko owners won't say this more often but crested gecko feels like cashmere :O leopards feel like a dry tongue lol and skinks feeld like snakes

  • @VanillaSkeet i recommend a bearded dragon or a leopard gecko :P there not slimey or anything, theyre also very easy to care for :P

  • $!ck!

  • guys im getin a gecko today any tips

  • @GIZZIT12 dont touch him for a week when you enter him to his new cage so he can adjust to his/ her surroundings

  • How do u catch them from the wild r they in the us im in phili so idk

  • what breed is he

  • Aww Hes So Cute, I've Held One Before And They're Easier To Handle Than A Hamster xD

  • Omg My tokay would lunge at me! How did you build such a relationship with yours? Mine was wild caught though, I can't seem to find any breeders to buy from.

  • @weda737 Both of my tokay geckos were wild caught, it shouldn't make a difference. In order to have them calm down around you, you must hold them for a few hours each day.

  • @weda737

    try petco.

  • that was so cute hahas!

  • AWESOME CLEARLY THE GECKO IS FINE DOING IT GREAT VIDEO THANKS FOR SHARING!

  • wow. Tokays are normally aggressive

  • LEGEND

  • hahaha amazing funny!!!! nice

  • i applaud you man

    pretty brave to do that with a tokay, at lleast from what i've heard about them lol

  • i wish i could teach my gecko to do that

  • LOL, thats cool

  • Wow i made a video on my old ch of me doing shit like there and every1s like "OH MY GOD YOU SHOULDNT OWN PETS" i still dont know wat i did wrong...i just put the thing on its back like u did in this video...

  • @TheNameIsLegion I still get the occasional ignorant comments from people. It seems like these people think I have a circus filled with geckos and this is my daily job as though I tip them upside down and make them do back flips everyday....not me making a video for youtube.........although, there is a point in which it's unsafe, but I haven't even remotely came close to that point.

  • @alexmortillaro I do that with my beardie when he is sleeping all the time.. He doesn't mind being on his back. If anything it shows that you care about your lizard enough to make a bond like that where it trusts you enough to do things like lay them on their backs or put your fingers on its nose without a mouth opening at you. Everyone who says its wrong can shove it!

  • @alexmortillaro Do you know how to tame leopard geckos?

  • best video i have seen from that Tokay!! keep it up.

  • how do you do that 0:22 ???

    I heard that Tokay's are very aggressive but it looks like he likes you XD

    so awesome, good job ..

    may I ask .. Can Leopard gecko's do tricks too .. I mean just a simple ones ??

  • hahah your gecko is amazing

  • most fantastic thing I have ever seen! I always thought those kind of geckos were mean, but this one showed me! Is that gecko giving out autogaphs anytime soon?

  • I LIKE YOUR VIDEO IS GREAT!

  • lmao

  • omg THAT IS SOO CUTE♥♥

  • that is so good mate

  • HOW THE HELL DID YOU TAME A TOKAY?

  • sniper gecko ftw

  • The greatest vid!!! I cant wait.. Please make an update.

  • you have a EPIC gecko

  • I have to say, my most favourite part ( 0:42 - 0:48 ) is when you were using your fingers to hold up his back legs, and then let him walk. But, the best is that has was still moving his feet as if walking in mid-air!! Haha, I love that. Nice Tokay gecko.

  • Thanks, yeah I thought that was funny when he was moving his feet like it was helping him move forward lol...

  • I love geckos yours is a clever one

  • I bet his aim sucks... lol jk!

  • Has this Tokay ever bitten u, like when u first got it?

  • It tried, but It never actually bit me no.

  • My gecko would bite me if I tried any of this shit. -.-

  • can it play dead?

  • Nope, sorry it can not.

  • wow! ur gecko is great !

  • Well done!!

  • Tokay are very angry geckos, nice work well done!

  • Geico GECKO!!!

  • nice gecko, very tame.

  • thanks!

  • @alexmortillaro that is the smartest gecko ever oh btw it did play dead lol

  • It's amazing! my boyfriend just got a Tokay, the guy at store said it was 6 or 8 months old, is it possible to tame it still? He also has 2 japanese turtles, they're 3 years old and 4 inches long, do you think the can get along?

  • as far as the turtles go, I'd say keep them away from each other, but I don't know. any aged tokay gecko, with the right treatment can be tamed, you just have to spend time with it by handling it frequently.

  • hilarios gecko hes awesome

    

  • I thought Tokays are supposed to be aggresive?

  • they are, both of mine have been tamed.

  • @alexmortillaro do they insure my car?

  • haha,hes at war with aflack

  • Wow a great video from a great trainer!!! :D

  • thats so cool my crested gecko watches tv lol thats about it we watched rango together yesterday so great

  • putang ina mu

  • those are no big tricks, my gecko can do the same its all normal behaviour when you handle them that way

  • You should make some videos of yours then.

  • @alexmortillaro okay but one thing that i realy have respekt from is that yours is a tokay...how did you get a tokay that tame? i havea flying gecko what also should be very agressive but i tamed it but a tokay is even more agressive so thats the actual special thing in the video in my opinion

  • great vid dude. is that a tokay?

  • Thanks. yes this is a tokay gecko.

  • I luv the pic he holding the gun, it's like "Captain Gecko, fight ur enemies!" lol

    My baby water dragon probably would never try this

  • ill trie to teach my 3 leopard geckos how to do that stuff

  • that's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo cooL from 0:00-1:10 ... ^_^ great video dude..

  • ahhhhhhhhhhhhhahahahahahhahaha­hahaahahahahahaaha

  • HE IS THE CHOSEN ONE

  • Is that a Tokay Gecko???? Sure looks like one :) I have a leopard gecko though will buy Tokay Gecko in future though:)

  • lol that's so awesome. How'd you get him to be so tame like that? I care for one of those guys at my job ( I work at an animal sanctuary ) and he's fairly aggressive.

  • thanks. basically all it takes is frequent handling. holding them in your hand for a while (10-15 mins ) at least a couple times a day should help the lizard calm down and get used to you. they're all different so there isn't one way to "tame" a tokay gecko, but I also have a male which acts exactly the same as the gecko in this video and can do everything this gecko can. all I did was hold them and they pretty much stopped being aggressive ( towards me ). hope that helps.

  • @alexmortillaro you know about ur description,if they say negative comments they will waste like 30secs of their life lol

  • Lol funny man

  • Thanks a ton for putting a smile on my dial and just being a person who loves animals! Blessings!

  • I just saved a Tokay. From some dumb ass. Had it in a cricket cage. Selling alot of cool animals but they were all in bad shape. Please make some updates on your Tokay. I would love to see them again. I will subb. I will also practice these techniques.

  • I just posted a video of my male tokay gecko climbing like a week ago. before anything, handle the tokay gecko and get it used to you before you try doing anything else with it. I spend lots of time with my geckos so they are very used to me. treat yours right and it will return the favor.

  • wow how did you teach it to do that, its a tokay right?

  • that's AMAZING I wish I could do that with my leppord gecko

  • He sure does trust you

  • whats wrong with you people? cant you see? one of the gecko in this video is dead? pretty sure of it.. 0:22 look at the body of the gecko, not breathing

  • Nothing is wrong with these people. It's not dead and it's the same gecko throughout the entire movie.

  • omg that is so dope yo

  • thats legit bro.

  •  Tokays are such fun I really like when they bark .
