What do you love most about Crested Geckos?

[@CrazyArtLady]

I LOVE CRESTED GECKO'S CUZ THEY ARE SO INTERESTING. It was thought they were extinct til 1994 when found in New Caledonia in large numbers. They have no eyelids & have double jointed toes. If they drop their tail, it sadly won't grow back, causing them to have a bit of trouble moving from branches as it's tail is prehensile. If they lose the tail, they are known as a "Frogbutt". They come in so many colors and fire up and down. Unlike many geckos, they are omnivores. My son and I are getting 1 in the next couple weeks and I can't wait. He convinced me to get 1 by presenting facts and care requirements to me every night until I caved. If I stated anything untrue, please feel free to correct me so that I'm properly educated... Oh, and some call them Eyelash Geckos. GREAT VIDEO THANK U FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE.

[@tabethaschneider3379]

Ease of care: Food is pretty uncomplicated, and my petsitter has no issues taking over. Temp/Humidity is easy to achieve Relatively small foot print in the home Not bitey boi's Unique look Great ambassadors, really.

[@ElleriaZer]

That I don't *have* to feed them bugs and the diet is pre-mixed. I absolutely loathe having to get insect and other bug supplies for feeders. It's not even that I hate bugs. It's just excruciatingly frustrating to feed something bugs where I live unless I raise them myself due to supply issues and I don't want to do that. I just want to note that I have tried giving my single crestie bugs a few times in the past. She actually ignores them. Instead I feed the Pangaea diet with bug parts. Edit for spelling. Autocorrupt is evil.

[@Katie-ll3dv]

I love how different they are from each other! I have two who could not be more different :)

[@yjjin3732]

I was literally just considering getting a Crested Gecko as my first reptile after so much research, but was so hesitant to make a decision, and then I saw your notification. I’ll take it as a sign that this should be my first reptile! Thank you!!✨

[@Jar0fMay0]

Get it. They're awesome. My cousin has one and I'm thinking of getting one too. Just set up it's enclosure prior to purchasing one.

[@Loganisbad]

They are awesome, but do lots of research

[@tigerjoe4571]

⁠@@Jar0fMay0 Yeah their super cool, and of course, I will definitely will set up the enclosure a while before buying one. 👍

[@tigerjoe4571]

⁠​⁠@@Loganisbad Definitely. I have been researching them for about a couple months to see all their requirements and needs, and it doesn’t hurt to research more before getting one so I’ll know everything I’m getting into. 👍

[@talianielsen6529]

Do it! I love my little guy. He is my tiny scaly idiot son. I researched a ton before getting him. I went to a spring expo so I could talk to breeders and get info on care etc. Then I spent the summer building a bioactive enclosure so it could be settled and ready for the fall expo. Went to the expo last September, already knew which breeder I wanted to buy from, went straight to her table and took a look at what she had. She had geckos ranging from young babies, to juveniles, to adults that she was retiring from breeding. I found my eye kept being drawn back to this little juvenile red dalmatian that was super active in his cup. She asked if I wanted to hold him, I said yes, and it was love. He is the best. He is super chill. I can handle him no problem, and he seems to enjoy chilling on me while watching TV. He likes to curl up on my chest for naps. If I offer my hand, he'll curl up under it like a cave.

[@KayFabeChronicles]

Great guide. I’ve had my Crestie for about 17 years now , she’s ballparking 20-21 years old. Still super active and my baby

[@WickensWickedReptiles]

Thanks for sharing!

[@se9882]

Hi I have a question I just got my first crested gecko but I can't tell if it's eating or not this is my 3rd day with him and I'm just worried

[@agoodcone9329]

@@se9882a good way to tell is to use paper towels at the bottom of his/her enclosure, that way you can easily see where your little fella used the restroom. Also look for small dents in their food, I’ve had my oldest for 7 years and sometimes he still will just barely pick at his food, and other times he eats it all. Also, you’ve had them for not even a week so give them time to adjust to their new environment and get comfortable with you and the noises etc.

[@Cool_Story_Bruh]

Yay, pushing UVB even for nocturnal reptiles! My leachie often sleeps with her head in the shade under vines and the rest of her body hanging out, soaking up UVB

[@thorwolfsbane1012]

I've always wanted a crested, and my local pet store finally got one and immediately sold me on it. This video is exactly what I needed to get me ready!

[@ryanbenson6669]

Just bought a beautiful baby for my son's 7th birthday. $90 for a gorgeous dark black with with stripe. Love that you are taking them to the world!!

[@Xiporah]

I just got a little crested gecko last month. Best choice ever; Binky is a precious lil treasure.

[@melaniemaitre8983]

that is a fantastic name 10/10

[@CrazyArtLady]

Perfect timing, my son just started asking for his first reptile. He is 11 and has been doing his research and presenting a sales pitch each evening to convince me it should be a Crested Gecko. We are picking up an enclosure and all the accessories we will need next week b4 we pick one out. I'm as excited as he is. It's a good thing since care sometimes occasionally falls to parents who don't enjoy reptiles or dont know how to take care of them. Great info, as always! I would love to see a video on Monkey Frogs if you have some good info 2 share. I just saw a short on 1, and they look so interesting with all the wax they rub around. Thx

[@moonutella5581]

Glad crested won! I watched the last care guide you made and my kids kept saying no. So I shown them this care guide and now they're saying they want Chicken after seeing her try to jump on to your face 😂

[@Niv27]

I've had my crested gecko for over a year, and i love him out of all my reptiles i would say he is one of my most easy going reptiles. One day i would like to get another that's maybe a bit more of a fancy colour. I'm also going to be making his tank bioactive soon!

[@loriw2661]

Crestie’s are SO cute! I wish they didn’t drop their tails so easily but they’re cute even without them. 🦎❤️🦎

[@WickensWickedReptiles]

they sure are cute

[@Loganisbad]

Ngl, i think that tail thing is a bit exaggerated, i know that some do drop them easily, but people made it seem like they all drop them super easy

[@JupiterJamie]

I have 10 cresties and I've never had one drop a tail. (Knock on wood) I do have one tailless adult male that I purchased from an expo a year ago.

I love watching your content. It’s inspired me to get back into reptiles, I use to have a few growing up but didn’t own any for years. Last year got a fire skink, they’re alright. Really beautiful though. And am thinking of getting a new lizard sometime soon. Stuck between a few though, I want to get a uromastyx so bad but then I saw a created gecko at the local pet store and am thinking of getting one of those now. Really want to go to an expo to see and learn more but there are not very many around where I live. Thank you so much for making such amazing content

I’m trying to do a lot of research on red eyed crocodile skinks before I plan to get one in November. If you have any tips or recommendations that would be appreciated! Also how do you keep live insects at home? Or do you just buy them same day each time?

[@WickensWickedReptiles]

[@KaylaPearlCPNinja]

My crested gecko Spyro, bit my dad when we first got him. He was a bit scared of him , but now he’s such a cutie and he is a total goofball sometimes. My first crested gecko sadly passed away due to a fungal infection and he died right in front of me and I was so heartbroken. Right now Spyro is still in my parents house as I actually need an emotional support animal letter in order to keep him in my apartment as my apartment has a no pets policy that includes no small animals as well. I miss him so much and my parents have to take care of him for me because of this situation.

I was on the fence about getting a crested gecko. I have an extra tall enclosure that has been empty forever. And I have been researching them for months now. I saw your older video on cheapest animals and saw them there and came here since I trust a lot of your judgement and how you care for your replies!! I have ball pythons, corn snakes, dumpy frogs and a jumping spider. This pretty much made my choice easy. Thank you :)

[@altimatum]

Awesome guide, would love to see one with Gargoyle Geckos in the future as while they are very similar looking (and have similar care!) they are not the same and have some variances in what they prefer. Most notably I've seen a lot of conflicting information from the varying sources out there and many are a bit older so it's difficult to know what's really for the best for them. I do know they're a bit hardier than cresties in general so I've seem some more ranges in there as well but even then I see some folks suggest 50% humidity and others 70% and different temperature gradients too.

[@thedriftmc]

And they don't lose their tails!!

Our crested gecko hates bugs. The store insisted that he was eating extremely small crickets. We have tried and he won’t. On the flip side he hasn’t rejected any of the mix flavors even the grub one.

[@JupiterJamie]

I have 10 cresties and one of mine doesn't care for crickets either. He too is an excellent eater of the CGD. He eats at least twice as much as my insect eaters. I give crickets twice a week.

[@qa377]

Love crested geckos! They have such a variety of personalities and colors. One of my boys will slide his way off my hand and hang by his tail while reaching for whatever he thinks he's going to land on. From what I've seen and read through, it's not recommended to keep multiple together, especially not males. Definitely increase the enclosure size and number of hiding spots, and monitor for signs of fighting/stress if you go that route. Be prepared to separate permanently if worst comes to worst. Some crested geckos seem especially interested in attacking other lizards, others are more avoidant, and you never know what you're going to get.

Nice! I always like watching care guides from people i trust. With care and equipment always improving, you never know when you will learn a way to improve your animal's life!
