NEW TO LEOS: Leopards are great for a starting reptile. They rarely bite and even if they do, it really doesn't hurt. The biggest thing to be aware of, IMO, is stuck shedding. If you see that they have shed and you don't see where the shed is off of the toes area, it can actually constrict blood flow and cause you to lose a toe on the animal. You can mist it down with a water bottle or, if it has toe shedding, give it a very very shallow warm bath, maybe a fourth of an inch of water, and let it walk around. Then use a damp paper towel and gently rub on it's shedding for it to come off. When you start to see your gecko looking faded looking, then it's probably getting ready to shed. You can mist it with water at least once a day and that will help the shedding process. Also it is possible, if it gets loose or another critter gets a hold of its tail, it can come off. But they can grow their tails back. They use their tail to store extra fat. I used to have picky geckos that didn't want mealworms. They only wanted crickets. But in either case, just make sure you dust their food with a vitamin dusting powder so they don't develop issues. You can use the coconut substrate, or you can use a reptile carpet. Good luck! ❤️🐍❤️

thx brain for making my day awesome love your video can you plz just show us in one of your video or vlogs how to tell if your gecko is a male or female

love this video its the bomb keep doing what youre doing

So beautiful!

Great video! That dark snow gecko was crazy looking. I've never seen anything like that before. I was wondering if you could make a video about more of the genetics side of things. Help us plebs to understand a little bit better whats going on. I know you've covered it a little bit but maybe a more in depth video on just genetics with examples from multiple species could make for a really cool and informative video.

Hello brian thanks for making my day wonderful

Awesome video!!!!

Nice!

My leopard gecko is Radar Albino and he's so cute and beautiful! ♥

nice 2 vids today!!👌😎

omg I think I recommend this video to him

I have always wanted a Leopard gecko they are my favorite

I like them a lot

I remember when he was talking about getting into geckos 🦎🤘

I have a Mandarin Tangerine Leopard Gecko that is 66% NDBE. What would I be able to breed it with if ever considered in the future? (Of course, after I do 100% research)

Very nice episode Brian!!! Can you do a Snake Bytes episode on CARPET PYTHONS???????? Thanks Brian!

You guys should do a video all about hibernating/brumating colubrids and getting them ready for mating

Love leopard geckos. Want to breed them and maybe a few ball pythons in the future. Nice little hobby, y'know? But leopard geckos are awesome. No matter how big or small they are, any bite is nothing. We had a giant and he bit and grabbed onto me (he didn't like the shirt I was wearing), it took me a moment to realize he was even attached. Left a heck of a mark for a while, but didn't really hurt at all. It looked worse than it was. Taming the geckos is an absolute walk in the park. Again, since the bites don't hurt, they get over the defensive response really fast and become little scale kitties lol.

I need to know this as fast as possible i'm going to breed my leopard gecko, i'm getting another one soon but i NEED to know if assorted leopard geckos are dominate or co-dominate, if they are co-dominate then how do i get assorted leopard gecko babies?

leos are awesome iv got 4 2 bells 1 blizzard and one that was a rescue not sue the genetics but its solid yellow with a bunch of black spots I think shes a normal but could be wrong

I love episodes like this keep them coming Brian. I would like to see some more Roswell. one crazy awesome looking gecko

Do you have to mate the females after every egg lay or just once a season?

If you have a leapard gecko as a pet do they need to hybernate? Or can they stay active all year long? Would be good to know so i can educate people properly.

Awesome video! The one at 12:48 is so beautiful

Always wonder if there is a blooper reel somewhere, there be one heck of a mouthful you're getting through with het pos and neg, then T pos or neg all in one sentence as well as the genetic variants lol 😆👍 Awesome job, I'll be damned if I would be trying to get through that with a straight face error free. Have an amazing week mate👍.

Giant is actually a co-dominant trait like the snow. Unless they changed it when I wasn't looking, but it has proven true in my group. I guess I can see where it could be line bred but from my experiences and research it's suppose to be co-dominant. Haha Please correct me if I wrong and point me to the article! It's just how I've seen it for years now.

Hey Brian, Question, why do you say that geckos should not have shed on the toes?

I wouldn't put uv on a leopard gecko. I made that mistake with mine since I had a tube UVB and figured what could it hurt. He ended up getting what seemed like sunburn on his tail, it was shiny and peeling. I turned the uv off the same day, the peeling was taken care of with his next shed and he hasn't had the problem again leading me to believe the uv was the problem.

I don't think that beta carotene helps. You should feed with calcium and multivitamins feeding calcium twice then multivitamins and repeat. I'm just saying uvb is beneficial but not necessary but it is even better if you offer the right amount of uvb.

I think the uv bulb I have now is a 10.0, it was a brand new one that I had leftover from my tortoise who now lives mostly outside.

Did it hybernate... The room temperature is like 20 degrees Celsius

@paulbassett5047

Heat tape

After coming out of brumation do you pair the males and females after one week or wait for the females to ovulate first? Ii thought that the females do not ovulate until 2 - 3 weeks later. Since subsequent fertilization does not require pairing them again in the same cycle I guess that means that it make no difference if the female is inseminated before they ovulate. Secondly if you do not attempt to provoke ovulation but are waiting for it to occur spontaneously do you wait until the female has ovulated to pair them or does it occur with sufficient regularity during the breeding season that they can be paired at any time with the male?

Where in those boxes do they have a hot spot ??

My leapord gecko has bit me 3 times but all three times she thought my fingers were her food that was my sign that she was hungry and couldn't find any of the food I put in for her. Sadly enough my leapord gecko is blind in her left eye after a shedding in exanthema and it is hard to feed her.

They need a temperature gradient. The hot side should be about 90 with the heat mat (on a thermostat) and the cool side could be as low as 70-74. I've even read from a vet that nightly temperature drops are beneficial for the animal. Either way the tank needs to have cooler spots for the animal to thermoregulate itself

I'd like to know the same thing. I'm guessing he just keeps the entire room near 90 in the day & near 75 at night. Otherwise he'd need a heat tape & thermostat for every single cube.

Heat tape if that. Might just have the room at a certain temp. I wouldn't put that past him. He isn't the greatest source for care. He may be a breeder of many years and know genetics but when it comes to care guides he is dead wrong on most stuff.

@pewpewcat7679

Yes. It's common they stop eating during breeding season. You should monitor their weight either biweekly or monthly to get a baseline during the "normal" months and then see how much they should be regaining after breeding season. Females are especially prone to this since they lay eggs regardless of if they have been bred or not. Infertile eggs of course.
