Why Leopard Geckos Make Great Pets

[xXZombieVirusXx]

They dont necessarily need a light because they dont bask. Usually a heat pad would be best. Just saying. But cute geckos :)

[raichumen223]

nucturnal gekos dont need a bulb right?

[LOVING2PUNK]

Im probably gonna get a leopard gecko this summer. Im just staring to get into reptiles and right now all i have is a little corn snake, hes really cool :)

[The1only1pottsy11998]

@001reri001 they can grow between 7-10 mabey 12inches at the age of 1 (fully Grrown and at whoever posted this video nice geckos but the last one seemed a bit skinny migt want to check him up :)

[001reri001]

@The1only1pottsy11998 Yep hes skinny.

[001reri001]

How long can they be please answer.



[ContracterYin]

@001reri001 My adult female is 8" or so, so tehy don't get too large. Any other questions feel free to ask

[gagedosenotlikejb]

mine wags it tale lol its funny

[ContracterYin]

@gagedosenotlikejb wagging its tail is flagging, which means it views you as a threat. It is cute, but it isn't exactly good.

[001reri001]

I buy a leopard gecko instead of a dog lives almost longer.

[elisezookeeper1]

aww....at 44 sec. the leopard gecko is sooooooooo cute

[cocooreo100]

another reason to love my 12 geckos

[HollowEidolon]

haha, it's like they're always wearing a huge smile.

[3ruffy45]

Mine bites strangers but it never bit me before

[3ruffy45]

They make noise, at least mine makes noise.  It sounds like a really weak squeak

[killinggamereviews]

Do leopard geckos actually need moss

[MsPandaBear91]

MINE BITES :o

[MrWolviii]

Do they need a heat mat for the warm hide or is a heat bulb alright ??????

[sloppiness]

@MrWolviii dont worry about the heat bulb. you only need the mat. leopard geckos are nocturnal and dont really need the sun

[ombra247]

cute, i have a Bearded Dragon called Lizzie :)

[MrLeopardGeckoz]

Come check out my leopard geckos at my channel!

[elisezookeeper1]

they are so cute! I have a male leopard gecko named Yang

[spcinfantry]

i have a 10 gal tank, i cant seem to get the temp up high enough, what watt should i use?

[MrLeopardGeckoz]

@spcinfantry 75 Watts is good. It keeps it about 90-95 on the hot side and 80-85 on the cool side, depending on the temperature of your house as well. Hope this helps!

[rileytwist88]

the one at 1:45 needs more wait and a bigger tail, he's not getting fed enough, make sure the other don't hog all of the food

[propyro85]

Nice video, but I have to agree with SIG442, that last gecko (tangerine morph I think) can definitively do with some more food. Maybe if you isolated it for a while and gave it some wax worms or butter worms for a while so it can gain some weight.

[Olievertraiqn]

I just got my leopard gecko almost three weeks ago. He's such an amazing pet, I love him so much. I would highly recommend a leo as a pet. (:

[SIG442]

actually, they do make noises. You just hardly can hear it, sounds are something like a guinea pig. just much less noise. If you are very quiet at night, sitting int he dark near their terraria, you likely can hear them (specially if you have multiple gecko's). I hear mine each night. And get the last one some food, poor thing i as skinny as a twig.

[001reri001]

0:40 Cutest thing ever!

[MyAnimegurl]

0:33 Aww hes smiling -giggles-

[littledixiegirl2468]

awwww

[skyeon14]

0:36 Aaawww!! That sweet face!

[scruffyscoot12]

My leopard gecko shmeer is nice but very skittish and i wanna know if she will grow out of that wen she gets older cuz right now shes not a baby but not an adult yet

[KhReKK09]

Hello, I have a pet juvenile iguana (they are less than 10$ in my local equivalent) is it possible to have an iguana and a leopard gecko together?

[5571Randman]

@KhReKK09

I'm not a professional or anything, so this is just an opinion. I have experience with iguanas and I wouldn't recommend keeping those two together. The iguana will very quickly outgrow the gecko and get to a size where just his moving around the enclosure could cause damage to your gecko if he happened to step on him with his claws. I seem to remember that geckos have somewhat fragile skin. Again, I could be wrong, but I don't think it would be good for the gecko.

[lurtz8083]

if any1 wanna hear how annoying it is then search Gecko Scream on youtube and you will find it

[lurtz8083]

i would say dragonbeard lizards are better as they looks awsome with all spikes they have alot of diffrent size and alot of colours (+ they are more fun to feed as they run after their food and dosnt make those annoying screaming sounds that geckos can do )

[maxkilla93]

wat do they eat?

[DudeAteMyHomework]

you said they dont make noise, lol when i had mine one would wait ontop of the house rock and wait for the other one so he could go AHHHHH and have an AHHHH competition, then they would spent the next hour licking eachothers face.

[futureskateboarder12]

fead your lizards man one of thems tail is so thin thats not healthy

[2000thewolflover]

Sooo cute OMG

[uptwnclwn]

[CrashBandic00t96]

[Justatrollol]

[chaosami2]

[lolilikeReptiles]

[korngirl218]

[GodHades420]

lol Sounds like a awesome pet wont run away lol or get lose and chase after cats lmfao.

[BLENDERSERVER]

why wont mine let me hold them all they do is try to bite

[ChickensMilk018]

I got my Leopard Gecko yesterday, he's veryveryvery cute, he's still a little wary of his surroundings and spends most of the day in his little hiding rock, he isn't use to being handled so he's a little jumpy..I'm sure he'll get use to me holding him:D I think he's amazing, and he's going to be an amazing first reptile pet{:

[moomooiecow]

0:32 the leopard gecko was smiling

[AwesomeG1103]

@ZiriTheRogue A heat lamp is optinal and you should leave the heat pad on 10-12 hours when it is light

[thesaphira2000]

this is lovable....... like a lizard (epic music plays)

[ZiriTheRogue]

2 things:

-can it only eat maxworms and sometimes, just to change , some crikets?

- how long should i have the heating lamp on? all night? what about the heating pad?

[H4RDCH3353]

@ZiriTheRogue No you can feed your gecko with crikets only and it won't hurt him... they are insectivorous, so crickets, mealworm, wax worm, horned worm, butterworm, superworm, name them... I have the heating pad working 24/7, a heat lamp and a UV lamp 12/24, alternating with an incandescent blacklight. I maintain temperature around 33-27 in the day and 27-24 at night. The important thing is that your reptile can regulate his body temp with the hot/cold zones in the terra.

[ReptileFaye1234]

PLEASE help my leo will only eat wax worms and rarley does .she lives alone in a wooden viv and has a uvb and heat mat i think the mats 10 watt she has freash water every day but hardley ever drinks . and now shes stoped shedding . shes awfully small and skinny ..... please give me some care tips i dont want her to die what should i dooo ???????

[PomPom890]

@ReptileFaye1234 Try and hand feed her some meal worms or wax worms, maybe bathe it in some warm water, might be the tempature x if it dosn't help then find a reptile vet....

[Zalacel]

0:32 those eyes... looks friendly :o

[maricris1011]

0:32 the cutest thing i ever SAWW awwwwwwwwwww

[upperlevelthegreat]

my panther chameleon is much more enjoyable. I have him on my shoulder basking in the sun as I type.

[08jminke]

i had a really bad experience, with leopard geckos, due to them getting a bug, that causes them to stop eating, which led to death. so i decided to go for a beraded dragon, who is know over 2 years old, raised from birth, and is called oliver.

[spikeman203]

@08jminke . ur the exact opposite of me. I have a leapord gecko living here for like 3-5 months now.but our bearded dragons keep dying :(

[MegaNickyRose]

[ZiriTheRogue]

Can anyone help me, i dont really have a "quiet and calm" place to place my gecko, the living room is full of smokers and my bedroom i always like to have music really high.

Are they bothored by cigar smoke and loud noises?

[donteventryyouareabs]

@ZiriTheRogue its not advised gets some headphones and if possible a air vent

[ZiriTheRogue]

@donteventryyouareabs ahh thanks! the headphones wont be a problem, and since i dont smoke he should be pretty good in my room :D

[donteventryyouareabs]

@ZiriTheRogue awesome enjoy leopard geckos ftw

[Nicsolo22]

@LittleShinobi92 I thought about cresteds. However, don't they need a basking light and a 20 gal for adults?

[Nicsolo22]

Can someone tell me a herp that can live in a ten gallon all it's life with no need for basking light? Other than a leopard gecko, already got two.

[LittleShinobi92]

[floydrharper]

[HazardAllDay]

This is exactly why I have a Leo

[MineCrafterBjpiers]

do they have to be kept in a heated cage? can you take them out w/o worries of them not having the right body temperature because of the temperature change from outside the cage?

[braviart]

I've had reps all my life and while I love my Red Tegu tons I think Lepards are my all time favorite

[12HELLIAN]

[spyletu]

@Reika1602

[GameRoomOfReviews]

[agr227]

[XxBrownEyesDontLiexX]

Possible bullying? Just checking! :) Love my baby leos and have to be vigilant.

[TheLeopardgeckoowner]

1st some are not good at eating like my leopard gecko and at 2:04 thats how my leopard gecko looks like and another thing is some leopard geckos do smell like shit just like mine but I wash him and also some leopard geckos scream like nuts when you touch them but mine does not do that and some dont live for a long 20 years but mine hasnt died yet!

[nidalhaiqal]

[DeftonesKornFan]

They are very cute. I plan on getting a leopard gecko and a bearded dragon soon.

[cboley0002]

@DeftonesKornFan Don't put them in the same area. The dragon will eat him!

[DeftonesKornFan]

@cboley0002 I know. Don't worry I take real good care of my animals! :)

[Exoth3rmic]

[ISkateForLife98]

[geckoboy77]

[gdog48001]

That last gecko in the pictures has a :| face on its back haha

[alternativegirl1000]

[mangoelizard11]

[mangoelizard11]

31 to 45 thats so cute looks like my gecko!

[whysoblueberrie]

Later this afternoon I'm getting my first leopard gecko! I'm sooo excited. I've had geckos before, and I absolutely adore them. I can't wait! I've watched this video twice just because the footage of your geckos is amazing and they look so adorable! Thanks for making this video!!

[xojenniexo08]

@whysoblueberrie Your getting your first leopard gecko but you've had geckos before? huh? lol

[PrincessWoona]

@xojenniexo08 Probably mean they've had other types of geckos, but no leopard ones.

[whysoblueberrie]

@xojenniexo08 Yes, I've had a house gecko before. This is my first leopard gecko.

[Jjustiin112]

[razorbladekisses0]

[mangoelizard11]

[squarerootof9001]

i got two adult leopard geckos yesterday :) they seem happy but the famale is a little skittish at the moement :P i'm sure she'll get settled in :)

[littlemushro0m]

Sooooo adorable. You should try scooping them up instead of grabbing them by the sides, though - it's gentler and doesn't freak them out quite as much :)

[MrDupelidoo]

you dont need a heatlamp either do you? or can you get away with a heatmat?

[squarerootof9001]

@MrDupelidoo yup, mine just has a heat mat but having a bulb there can always help

[krewnieski]

I have one too! I love geckos!

Nice video! :)

[carminmin]

what's the morph of the yellow one? :D

[carminmin]

@carminmin the one in the beginning, i mean!

[BooItsErin]

@carminmin the first one shown is a raptor :)

[CASSINOx]

Same with bearded dragons! But to me the dragons are cooler looking.

[omletbar10]

[Bigbadbraz1979]

@omletbar10 Noticed a few in the video that looked like they were very skinny. Typical adult should be 75g to 100g. That last one was definately too skinny.

[BooItsErin]

@Bigbadbraz1979 i've already answered this several times.

[yognaut619]

[TheMezzyHD]

[squarerootof9001]

so by not needing UV light you can just use a regular bulb?

[kochen0]

how is it docile, can you give it commands?

[Hansumusic]

Wow, your geckos are beautiful! Your reasons why they are so great pets are true :) i really love lizards and other reptiles. I want a leopard gecko a lot :)
