Hey! Your geckos are amazingly cute❤. I have a question: I have a baby gecko (2 months) and he is eating his food during the day, but never all of his worms at the same time.I noticed she/ he usually eats one worm in the morning, and then all of the rest during the day. During evening he/ she doesn’t seem interested in food, but it’s however very active during evenings and nights and actually started to bond with me. He actually loved being handled and loves laying his belly on my hand. He’s been eating daily. Is it normal for geckos to eat during a whole day and not at a specific time? Should I make some changes like making a schedule? I think he was used to being left with his food all day.

[@beatrisjitariu4154]

Also I wanted to mention that even tho he eats during the day, he also rests a lot. He sleeps all day till sun goes down and I shut his lamp off. The he goes out like a frenzy and roams around his enclosure.

[@kataratify]

Mine did too when I first got her - need to work very slowly with them. The "how to tame your leopard gecko" video tips do work. Just need to go very very slow and don't rush it. After doing this with mine she seems to enjoy coming out and spending time out of her tank.

[@21dysfunctions]

I’ve had mine for over 2 months and he’s still not very tame, you have to go at the geckos pace which is very annoying but it’s worth it in the end

[@jenxkjquartuiopoquryzxmnv4287]

I'm Blue it's scared of you

[@Dragonemperess]

If it is a baby, then that happens. They have to get used to you and realize that you aren't gonna gobble them up. I started getting Sahyu used to me by putting my hand in her tank for a bit once she settled in. Better to get them used to it when they are little and their bites are just cute.

[@DiamondYoshi101]

Same thing for one of my Leopard Geckos. If they are young: Then they're either stressed out, new to environment, scared, or overly dominant, or overly aggressive. If they are old: Then they're stressed, scared, or overly aggressive. Plus, be patient with your Gecko, it takes time to build a bond with him or her.

My gecko loves me! Ever since I've been hand feeding him and helping him remove shedded skin, I think he trusts me a lot. He's always excited to get out of the tank so he always climbs my hand everytime I put it in there. I have had him for about a month now.

[@Polyphemus_Sage]

I’m getting a leopard gecko soon! I really hope mine will trust me as much yours does with you!

[@pewpewcat7679]

That's cool, I just got mine a few days ago but he is already a year old. I think the previous owners may not have handled him too much since they rehomed him due to lack of time. He's in good shape though, good weight, no stuck shed, no missing toes. They really loved the little dude and were happy to give him to me knowing I'd take good care of him, although I must say I can't match the enclosure size they had him in. It was a 4x3 ft tank! Like holy cow! I spent over 300 bucks on my setup but it's only a 20 gal. He'll move to a 55 eventually when my finances are better again but a 4x3 is insane! I've decked what I do have for him out as best I could. I mean in the end, he has what he needs. I'd just like to give him much more of course. In time. But yeah, I hope in a months time he'll be comfortable enough to be held just like yours, that would be amazing. I'm taking it super slow because I'm afraid to give him a negative experience. He's really giving me mixed signals. On one hand when I stick my hand in right in front of him, he doesn't mind, he'll even come up and lick it or sniff or calmly stroll by and curl his tail around my finger but if I try to stroke his side carefully with 1 finger he always squints and backs up like he's annoyed. So I only try that maybe once a day while he's active and out and seems to not be minding my hand being there but I don't want to push him. It's really odd though. On one hand I think he wants the attention and on the other he doesn't. Meh

I think I've gotten my gecko as tame as possible. He had a pretty hard first 3 years under someone else's care. He was being co habited with another gecko that bullies him and one day a cat broke in and ate the other gecko. He was also fairly neglected. But now he's chunky and happy.

[@pewpewcat7679]

Yikes. I don't get how people would not use a metal top and clips on a leopard enclosure if there's a chance a cat might get into it. A dog on the other hand shouldn't even be allowed in the same room without supervision. That sucks

Thank you for mentioning the thing about petting. A lot of people don't realize the arching of the back or flattening body is a stress sign in geckos (and other lizards). They typically don't like stroking- there are exceptions of course but it is my very common. I find mine is really only content with very soft petting right where her neck meets her shoulders, most geckos seem ok with this. But strokes are definitely a no.

My gecko *loves* my dogs. He's literally completely amazed by them, he follows them around in his enclosure so he can still watch my dog, Rosie chase her tail. The weirdest thing though is he has no reaction to her barking, she doesn't bark at him. But she has been in my room and has barked at the TV but he doesn't budge. He absolutely loves her lol idk why

[@deusregnat]

My little dude and I have a "dinner noise" so he knows whether to expect bugs or attention when I open his enclosure. It's a huge help when I have a house sitter feed him, too. I figure geckos are good enough at recognizing your voice and scent that it's more practical to identify situations.

Hello my name is lexi I've been watching you for almost a year and I now have had my lizard for almost a year I became obsessed with lizards when I first started watching you I was very uneducated but now have learned so much from you I would just like to give you a big thank you

[@ItsMe-ec4np]

So this helped because I have a dog and when she wags her tail it means she’s happy but with leopard geckos it means he or her is stressed thanks because I’m gonna be getting a leopard gecko and I have done lots of research but your videos really help thx 😁😁

[@bridgetgoulding6546]

this was so helpful! thank you!

[@leopardgeckotalk]

ah im glad :) no problem!

[@geicolizard8147]

I’m in high school with a bunch of extracurricular stuff, so with the timing of activity is perfect for me.

[@wynseas]

A lot of the time, I'm always nervous to pick up my leopard gecko, Sketch. I've picked him up before, but I've just gotten a sudden fear. I don't know how to deal with it. I try to ignore my fear, but I can't. I'm always scared i'll be bitten, even though I know leopard gecko bites don't really hurt much. How can I deal with this fear?

[@tacoweeb4072]

Row Hobbit you can start small with short time the make them longer as you get more comfortable

[@BigShrimpin_]

Other than keep trying, I don't really know. Possibly try to every day stroke them and eventually work your way up to handling properly. Other than that, all I can really say is that I've been bitten before, and you barely even notice it. Even so, they rarely bite in the first place.

[@wynseas]

Luckily, My leopard gecko's cage is in my room so it sees me everyday and sometimes watches me from it's cage, so at least it's used to me. That's one good thing.

[@kataratify]

What about sitting in a penned off area? That way, if your gecko does bolt/want to go exploring, they're still contained and can't go far?

[@tonypepperoni9954]

I have a similar fear with both my leopard gecko and crested gecko. My crested never bites me but has lunged at me to show off aggression and often tries escaping by bolting across my room so it is always so stressful to have her out! That fear has carried over onto my baby Leo however he is so calm when I hold him and never lunges or seems stressed but I do fear that I disturb him and that makes me afraid to pick him up as well

[@drgve]

Do these help with Cresties too?

[@bluespongetv1095]

Gracie Girl same I wanna know

[@leopardgeckotalk]

I'll have a think of what I do with cresties, but they've always been pretty tame.

[@drgve]

Leopard Gecko Thanks :)

[@cornmale]

OMG you’re wearing a Shane Dawson shirt! I can’t believe nobody pointed this out on my God I’ve gained a whole new level of respect for you

[@x935zombiesx]

Randomness Lord literally every comment is about the Shane Dawson merch.

[@Cheese_cat93-o6h]

One of my geckos favorite things to do when handling is what i like to call “ treadmill” she just goes in a straight line walking from my hand to my other hand, and I just keep moving my hands back in front of the other when she steps off of it

[@Sophhmg]

My leopard gecko comes in a couple of hours, and I’ve done loads of research but I still feel really underprepared!, the feeding schedule works amazing for me with work etc, I’ll feed them around 7pm GBT as that’s after work, they are 5 months old and I’m still struggling on what to feed them and how often, because everywhere I go it’s saying different things!

[@nightinggale6470]

Feed daily under six months, every other day between 6-12 months, and 1-2 times a week over a year. Live crickets, roaches, silkworms, and black soldier fly larvae can be fed regularly. Mealworms, super worms, and hornworms can be fed occasionally. The more variety in their diet, the better :)

[@MiissJ]

i feel a bit sad because i have accidentally stressed out my gecko to the point where she is a bit scared of me so i am trying to fix that as best as possible

[@HaileyKful]

I got my first little Leo a couple weeks ago. Don't know her age cause she was an adult when I got her, but she seems to be doing really well. Her name is Circe, and, after following all of the tips on this channel, she's a very sweet and cuddly little girl.

[@kaylie2496]

THAT SHANE DAWSON MERCH!!! 10/10

[@leopardgeckotalk]

haha thanks :)

[@Lycramosa]

My gecko also hates being stroked along her back!

[@kiiwhee7688]

The part where you said "if you own larger lizards you could accidentally handle your Leo too rough..." or something like that...that is 100% TRUE....I own larger sized lizards, and I was actually too afraid to even pick up my leo simply because he was so small. I was terrified that I would accidentally crush him or squeeze him too tight or something. I actually didn't handle him at all for a while...It made me so sad I wanted a relationship with him like I had will all of my other animals. He also wasn't very chill either. So I moved his entire enclosure into my office and even though I never really handled him, he could always see me. It was a while but eventually I started watching you tube videos on handling you leopard gecko. So I tried it like twice just placing my hand in his enclosure and the 2nd time he just came right up to me. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be as he really doesn't do much out his enclosure except chill, so I don't really worry about him running off or anything. We are cool now. But I honestly used to be so afraid of hurting him that I couldn't really enjoy the experience...But it turned out great in the end!

Im livin for that shane dawson shirt

[@amayamojica]

The Shane Dawson merch ! I’m in love

[@Smaugı0]

Because ive been around reptiles my whole life mostly snakes and iguanas etc i didnt know how to hold them properly or anything so your vids have helped. She seems happy and is very active and likes to be held so thank you!!!

[@lunastarfire4993]

Yay first! I LOVE YOU LEOPARD GECKO!

[@leopardgeckotalk]

aw thank you :)

[@g-angster8073]

AHHHH Like ur shirt ;)

[@ajabreu2657]

Thank you so much for the helpful information. I just recently adopted my Leopard Gecko named Michael and he's trying to bond with me and lately he's been a bit stingy. I absolutely adore him. I also named him after Arch Angel Michael from the Bible. Again thank you so much and God bless you

[@rainingmoons7126]

Is this weird but my cat and leopard gecko are very close and they both get stressed when they don’t see each over all day like WHY

[@fionashepley478]

Rainbow Newt Gaming I strongly recommend not letting them near each other. The gecko could get injured, killed, or drop their tail. They’re predator and prey.

[@rainingmoons7126]

Fiona Shepley one key detail is that the cat is paralyzed and can’t do anything to it

[@slateajate9354]

Memo Mochi awwww that’s so sad

[@rebeccacase359]

My chihuahua whimpers to see my corn snake loves watching him in his rub as she can watch him

[@2008-wii-remote]

Fiona Shepley good for you, commenting things on people’s comments to make them feel scared when they clearly know what they’re doing.

[@jameshetfieldlover2149]

my leopard gecko dosnt like coming out by himself so i help him by putting my hand flat and let him crawl on

[@erengamer397]
