@@Daansji if the uvb light is set up properly and the right amount of inches away from the basking spot to the light then no you don't need to use a d3 calcium supplement only the one without d3 :)

Yup. Getting one soon and I can't stop watching these videos

the dimensions are 36' 18' 18' it's a 50 gallon enclosure. i would say bc it's wood it's harder to regulate heat from the outside rather than a glass one would be

i learned the hard way when she bit my baby hairs on the back of neck 😂

I do! I use the repashi one I think that's how it's spelt

I also don’t know cause you didn’t mention, I don’t see any uvb light getting out in the enclosure. So I’m not sure how but it’s extremely important for when you feed, that you do give them uvb lighting for 12 hrs a day set up on a timer. The heat should be a gradual variant and it’s important to monitor the hot, middle and cool zone temps as well as overall cage humidity. Also I forgot if you said you’re giving the gecko calcium but calcium with d3 is really important plus reptivitamine, sort of a multivitamin powder. And I know you don’t like crickets but it’s good to switch up the diet so they’re not just relying on only one food as you don’t want an underweight nor overweight gecko so a kitchen scale weighing in grams would be good. I probably wouldn’t have taken it out of the box and just held it on a lid straight after being shipped. That’s extremely stressful and you want to carefully remove the gecko from the shipping container and place in the enclosure immediately. I also wouldn’t hold it out while sitting on a couch. Ideally in the beginning, you should be seated farther back on the couch or a bed or the carpet. Somewhere where it’s not gonna fall off the lid of a container and plummet to its death during one of the most stressful times - shipment of a newborn. I’m not sure how old you said you’re gecko is but they’re not able to be fully confirmed one gender or another until about 6 months. I personally think 6 small duster crickets are pretty important every other day in the beginning if it’s a baby to help it grow, and keep it on the warm side as they can’t digest food properly unless they have heat just like with almost any other reptile. Lastly I would get reptile eye drops cause although leopard geckos do she’d themselves and let them actually eat the skin cause it has vitamins and nutrition from its shed, but always look around the mouth and especially the eyes to see if you notice any stuck shed. It can cause completely blindness in your gecko. And depending on the morph, you’re gecko might already be prone to blindness or neurological issues to begin with. So helping remove the stuck eye shed just using q-tip warmed and moistened from the humidhide paper towels is an easy way to remove the eye shed, then apply a little bit of the repti eye drops. There’s a lot of big leopard gecko KZbinrs and also people that taken in poorly looked after and rescue dying bearded dragons that point this stuff out. Also if it is a boy, you’re gonna have to check for clogged femoral pores and sperm plugs in the vent area which can cause severe wounds, and with a girl, you may encounter problems with egg bound eggs during ovulation. Which I is definitely time for a vet check. Again there’s bigger KZbinrs on here that can tell all this more in-depth. But if you get shipped a “baby or juvenile” and were told it’s a he or is a she. That crap cause you can’t tell until they get older and bigger.

Thank you for the input I did change everything within a week of this set up. She was getting vitamin d through feedings by dusting but I switched to the uvb bulb. Her substrate is tile and I hated that humid hide so I got her a neck enclosed rock which she loves. I'm still learning new ways to make her enclosure better but in regards to monitors she has 3 temperature and humidity readers. Thank you again I love learning more about reptile care

@@Lyanachavezplease make more gecko content I love it !

She doesn't lol she just climbs on everything but I do need to upgrade her cage asap

I definitely been meaning to update and make a video redoing her entire habitat but I've been so busy 😭. I didn't use eco earth after a week of having her I hated it and carpet is switched out to tile but I do want to switch to a more bio active tanks

I agree with your other points but heating pads are fine, I actually prefer heating pads because they like belly heat

Also recommend about how quiet u have to be with reptiles especially Leopard geckos! They are known to have one of the smallest ears in reptile planet and they are very sensitive I have 3 leopard geckos and I know how to be quiet just whisper! I have 1 named sunny he was my first leopard gecko and he’s so big! My other one is bean and he’s a lil bit younger than sunny I got sunny in December and bean in February than I got lil foot in June
