  • Rest in peace

  • im sorry bout ur gecko i have a gecko and i love her to death ur gecko is so beautiful

  • That is one fat tail.the most healthy gecko I've ever seen.soo sad.almost mad me cry

  • You guys and gals are great! Thanks for the kind words.

  • She lived a good life

  • *she sorry

  • I bet dink is eating all the waxies he wants in heaven without getting fat XD favorited!

  • I took my gecko to the vet today because she had something wrong with her eye turns out she has a genetic disease that is slowly losing her vision =( RIP Dink

  • Sorry to sound extremely ignorant, but did Dink have any babies?

  • Did the tail fall off? Because that tail is huge!

  • My gecko just died today, i think she was very sick and she was only two, she was a beautiful gecko she was quite big for her age. R.I.P Cocoa and Dink.

  • Reminds me of the first leopard gecko my Mom got when was 12. Had her for 13 yrs after breeding too

  • whats your secret? i have 4 leos and i want them to live as long as possible

  • @SuperJmc2011 Low stress and consistency is the key. Don't change things about the food, temperature, water, surroundings. Dink was an awesome family member and was always watching us, but she was watching from a safe environment that never changed and I think that's why she lived so long.

  • sorry to hear about your gecko.there really nice reptiles.hard to see them go.

  • My juv. Geck dottie died. Spot misses her so much. He eats his crickets with a sad look.

  • R.I.p. Dink will be dearly missed he is watching over us

  • may gecko would of lived well if my other 1 did not eat it it was a sad day it was only 2 :(

  • i have never seen a leopard geckos tail that big before lol u must have fed it well lol

  • @ rcocker

    so sorry to hear about your gecko? but i have a question... your geckos tale is extreamly fat! my leo's tail isnt even half that size! can you explain?

    aand was that a roach you fed it? if so are they better for geckos?

  • @clainbro You'll see fat tails on old, well-fed, or over-fed leos, or leos that have dropped a tail in the past. I have no record of Dink ever dropping her tail but it sure looks like she did. In the vid she's eating a canned large cricket that I got from my local pet store. They're gut-loaded with nutrients and I fed her them for years. I personally think live crickets dusted with calcium are the best food for a Leopard Gecko.

  • @rcocker Nice video. Well she still had her tail rings, that means that she never droped her tail.

  • @rcocker did u quite

  • My sisters gecko died today

  • MY GECKO IS ONLY A YEAR OLD AND SHE IS VERY BIG AND BEAUTIFUL BUT I WISH SHE COULD LOOK JUST AS PRETTY AS DINK. MY GECKOS NAME IS AVI AND THE LOVE OF MY LLIFE!!!!!:) IM SORRY ABOUT DINK

  • MY GECKO IS ONLY A YEAR OLD AND SHE IS VERY BIG AND BEAUTIFUL BUT I WISH SHE COULD LOOK JUST AS PRETTY AS DINK. MY GECKOS NAME IS AVI AND THE LOVE OF MY LLIFE!!!!!:)

  • what song is this

  • @45bindy It's "Your Name in Lights" by Bryan Master off his Lost at Sea album. You can find him on iTunes or google bryanmastermusic.

  • @rcocker ok thanks srry about ur gecko i lost a blazing blizzard female to mbd but i have 3 others and i wont let that happen again

  • I just saw this today.. but I wanted to say RIP Dink anyway.. I have a little girl now named Nagini and she is great.. I hope she can live to be as old and have a nice fat tail like Dink. Thanks for sharing her with us! :)

  • beautaful gecko , long happy life!

  • i think i accidentally flagged it, i'm on my ipod and press a lot of wrong buttons. i'm sorry for your loss ): i had my female leopard gecko, wiggles, for over a year when she died (i now realize what i did wrong when she became ill) and i used to take her out and she'd watch tv with me(: they're really cool animals and make you realize responsibility is not a chore but a privaledge, so sorry to hear about dink. (:

  • i'm so sorry

  • im so sorry about your lepord gecko

  • My leopard gecko speedy is 19 yrs.old and right now he isn't doing so well.and btw sorry for ur loss.

  • I bought my leopard gecko when I was 14. it was $50 for a baby high yellow and I remember paying half of it with change that I saved up. I still have Chester and I'm 30 now. I hope I can get another 10 years. thanks for the videos! r.i.p. Dink

  • wow 26 years and looks very healthy bravo to you and she is so cute

  • What a beautiful animal. I had a pair 10 years ago, and ended up selling them when I had to move. I still miss them, probably the best reptiles you can raise. Dink had a good run, though; she was clearly well- taken care of.

  • Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment Would you capture it or just let it slip? Yeah, His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out He's choking how, everybody's joking now The clock's run
  • i had a leopard gecko 4 3 years and i was devistated wen she died i cant imagin how hard it was 4 u im so srry :,( the next 1 i gets name will be dink R.I.P dink

  • RIP Dink !

  • What a cute gecko, I did notice she lost her fingers, and some toes!

    Hehe, it happens. Very cute gecko, awesome video. Sorry to hear she died...

  • oh wow im am so SORRY for ur loss god bless u and dink. r.i.p dink sniff.....snifff

  • I have a beautiful leo. 7 months old, had him since he was 3 months, thats it, but I already love him like a best friend. He's so friendly and dosey and loves any attention given, and this video makes my heart break thinking one day i'll have to say goodbye to him. I just hope I can give him as happy and a fulfilled life as you gave Dink, she was one hell of a gecko. Sorry to hear she passed..

  • Oh my goodness her tail is so nice and big

  • WOW......I just found out she died today. I watched her videos over a year ago, then I happened to stumble upon it again, and I see this. Anyway, 26 FREAKIN YEARS OLD!!!! O....M...G!!!! I have a leopard gecko, and I hope he can live this long. He is about 12 years going on 13 years old. I've had him as my pet since I myself was only 3 years old. My Leo has pretty much been along my side all my life. It may only be a little sausage with legs, but you can form a serious connection with him.

  • @pspfanboy100 Good luck with your gecko. It is surprising how much of a connection your form with them.

  • @rcocker yeah, they are definitely a special breed of lizard. Leopard geckos have they're own unique personality. And I always laugh when i see that little smile on their face when they stare at you. I don't think any other lizard could beat the pure joy a Leopard Gecko can bring to you.

  • @rcocker so sorry for you im getting a leo and imma name him dink for you (':

  • i miss dink

  • amazing gecko whats the secret to keeping them healthy please tell me im so SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @THEGOODGECKOGUY The secret is cleanliness and consistency. Dink's terrarium had the exact same layout and almost the same items in it for all 26 years. If you change things the gecko will get freaked out and that stress will make the gecko age more quickly.

  • amazing gecko whats the secret to keeping them healthy please tell me

  • wow his tail was fat i know they fat but i never seen a 26 year old leo did he ever drop his tail

  • @blackxj0033 I had Dink for the last eight years of her life and I'm good friends with the guy who had her for the first 18 years. She never dropped her tail while I had her, and the other guy says she never dropped her tail. My guess is that she might have dropped her tail when she was young and my buddy just forgot.

  • wow his tail is so fat did he ever drop it

  • Great Work man your gecko died Happy 25 YEARS OLD!!!!!

  • i am so sorry to hear that

  • That's so sad. Sorry that he passed away.

  • This made me cry. Especially from about 3:06 on. I have always loved animals, and so has my mother. As much as we always wanted a dog, we simply cannot afford it. She let me get a Leopard Gecko instead, and last week marked the 3 year anniversary from when I first bought him. He was only about 6 months old. I love him so much and became so attached to him. I couldn't bear to think of losing him after 26 years. I hope your doing fine.

  • I'm sorry u can tell she was very happy with you

  • i was crying while watching. lost my leopardgecko last year, the other is alone since that day. :(

    it's like losing your best friend.

    but dink was a very beautiful old madame, wasn't she? (:

    R.I.P Dink!

  • I'm crying right now

  • aww Dink is so cute!! RIP Dink!

  • R.I.P Dink, You had an owner who showed exceptional care and love. When I first got into Leopard Geckos, I saw a video on Dink and it amazed me and inspired me. For that I thank you.

  • shit i got a baby gecko and havent had it for a full day. its going to be like loosing your best friend when he lives for more then few years. i hate that feeling, but the memories are worth it. they dont like to be handled right? i was kinda unprepared, like a surprise pregnancy, then its like, fuck, i dont know how to care for this gecko to well, i have a long tail, 2 grean anoles, an asshole brown anole, a crested gecko and now the leopard gecko. he has to spend the day in a rain forest.

  • I love fat geckos.

  • no wonder why he lived so long his tail is soooooooooo fat and that means hes realy healthy and fat he even has saggy skin just like an old person.

  • for real 26 thats crazy sorry to hear dude R.I.P. Dink

  • R.I.P lil Dink you will be truly missed

  • The Poor Old Girl, You Must Have Been Heart Broken When She Passed Away After All Those Years, She Does Look Tired In This Video After Such A Long Life, I Have Never Heard Of A Gecko This Old, Is It A Record Age? God Bless Ya Dink

  • WHY!? WHY THE HELL !? Dink should Live so long like you :[[ I wish Lizards could live our age (80 or 90) years :[ R.I.P lil Dink you will be truly missed :[ i have a dragon but i love all types of lizards and this broke my heart when i was watching all the wids from Dink and came to this one :'[

  • R.I.P. Dink

  • What a beatuiful creature.

  • poor dink :(

  • R.I.P dink

  • @makeoverchick Dink did fine for two days without me. I'd make sure to top off water and feed them before you go. If they're babies they probably need more regular feeding and water and you should have a friend stop by to feed and change the water. That's what I'd do if I was gone more than two days.

  • sorry bro do you think you will get a new one and also how do you tell if its a boy or a girl

  • aww my uncle had one and it died at 17 and now i have one that is 3 but im gonna try and beat my uncle. R.I.P Dink

  • sorry it died i hope u had fun with it when he was alive

  • RIP Dink

    I love how these wonderful animals have such great personalities when my oldest one "Fisto" was still alive she used to poke her head out of her cage whenever i would walk im the room, and whenever i would play guitar she would come out of her cave and watch me, i will always have a special place for Fisto in my heart as im sure you do with Dink

  • Rip dink

    I love watching them drink.

  • Hope you had a long good life Dink, 26 years.. wow, im not even 26 yet

  • This is so sad. I'm sorry to hear she passed, I was watching your videos for quite some time now. My leopard Gecko is going to be 4 next March, and I am already so attached to him. Its odd because I hate getting attached to things, but he has taught me to love something without being afraid of it dying. As corny as it sounds, I guess people don't understand unless if your an animal lover. Bless her though, she lived a long life! I hope your doing okay. :)

  • i'm so sad to hear this. thoughts for you.

  • y do u feed her dead crickets?

  • @GlobalAndy there dried.....cheeper, last longer, and just as good!

  • im crying now.... :( but im happy she lived a great long life!! :)
