This guy is so underrated... so glad i came across this channel 😎.

ZooMed improved their diet significantly for a while to be nearly on par with Pangea, but a few months ago I noticed a different texture in the powder and my geckos did not like it as much. I suspect they lowkey switched to some cheapy ingredients again.

you can literally see the ingredients on the back. They have not changed in the past year.

I've been bingewatching your account lately :,) I'm picking my first gecko up tomorrow and I'm so excited!

I love how much more enegetic you are since you have came back. Also, I have a question my gecko is currently around 10 months old and 10 grams. He is alittle under weight but I feed him gutloaded crickets and good food (with a rotation). He has grown trumendously since I have got him (he was 6 months old and 3 grams when bought). His stomach is very big (not of impaction) and Idk why. Is this part of toddler stage?

Thank you! They do go through stages where their limbs get skinny and a bit gangly looking, much like a preteen hitting a growth spurt.

Great video. Very informative. By the way, I follow you on Instagram and you have the craziest looking cresties on the market. Keep up the good work👍

Can you make a new gecko food reveiw?

Hey Bryan i have a few geckos is it a good idea to but little humid hide in the geckos tub to help with shedding or humidity i spary every other day but leave a water dish but today i added a small humid hide to all there tubs they are all about 4-7 grams and are in tall shoe boxs which are the same as the hatchling boxes but just taller

What are the best big 3 new caledonian gecko diets for beginner and experienced keepers. P.s I'm wanting to get crested gecko at some point so I can find as much information I can get, so please give me your honest opinion!

I don't use either of those I find sphagneum moss to make the best base bottom, it's soft, holds water nicely and the least likely to cause your gecko to get impacted. Also my gecko is picky it prefers baby food mixed with reptile-boost and exoterra multivitamin.

my gecko personally wont eat live or dead bugs do ill buy the pangea with crickets mixed in to try to make up for that lol

Any help would be appreciated I have four crusty geckos and one in particular and I have yet to have any of them else do it that eats his paper towels. I feed them their crickets in separate feeding bins so that they don't nip anything they don't need to once he started regularly eating it (although he's passing it I feel like I want him to not do that) I started putting food in his bowl every single night so he had something to eat and then go looking for his paper towels and he does eat his food but he still nibbles and eats his paper towels what can I do to fix this or what should I do I thought about taking out the paper towels but I don't want there to be no substrate and I'm afraid to use eco worth because it's smaller and I think you'd eat that maybe too has anyone else had this issue any help or tips would be so helpful because I can't figure out what to do anymore 😔

I know there was no response for this and im late, but id recommend the repti-bark. if youre worried about loose substrate, this is much bigger and harder to ingest. hope this helps!

I appreciate these videos as reminders on gecko care. Thanks for links - I bought some food. In reference to food, to you suggest the breeding food for the parent geckos? Also, what do I keep crickets in? The cricket keepers are ridiculous cuz those critters jump out right away! And some die because of overcrowding (I use paper towel roll). Should I keep crickets in large container (like a big tub with lid) so they can spread out and gut load?

Thank you for this! Quick question. My crested gecko went off her freeze dried gut loaded crickets. She used to eat them whenever offered but now she won't. I bought a new container thinking it was because the others were old, but no change. Any thoughts? Her appetite for her food is still good

I find dubias are super easy. They can't climb up onto things unless they have a rough texture to cling onto, they don't hop out, they're super easy to grab and dust and toss in there. Super easy to gut load.

I have a question. I have a cork barK background in my enclosure and I have eco earth at the bottom but there seems to be mold growing near the bottom of the background so does anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of it.

I got mould on my substrate, I'm assuming the humidity was slightly too high so now I adjusted it, I'm not sure why it would be on the background though.
