Feeding All of My Reptiles

Become a patron and help support me here: / reptiliangarden
Yes, I did feed my animals Romaine Lettuce in this video. It is not the best salad choice by any means, it is however all I had in my house at the moment for the video which is why I mention other foods to feed your animals which is also what I typically do on the daily.

Your chameleon is actually healthier than any other chameleon I've ever seen! I'm not kidding you should tell more people about how you feed him. I'm actually shocked

[@reptiliangarden]

Lewis. Exotics Absolutely! I’m planning to film a care video on him tomorrow morning 💕

[@reptilevibes6905]

[@WickensWickedReptiles]

your animals look so happy and healthy! I love this channel, such an inspiration to my own :)

[@siennamacalinao5360]

You have so many reptiles but that doesn't stop you from giving each and every one of your reptiles tons of love and making them healthy! That's just goals lol

[@rockinrich8]

This is the first video I’ve seen of yours, i love your intro and the music, i can tell you’re going to be big on KZbin!!!!

[@reptiliangarden]

Miranda Random Thank you so much!!!! 💕💕💕

[@teafalls83]

Miranda Random same

[@lanelletoscano3314]

same!!!! and I'm also a random person responding to your comment!!!!

[@Etherealswxn]

Your chameleon is so cute and seems so sweet

[@reptiliangarden]

Kclaempress Thank you!!!!

[@asdfghjkasdfghj4939]

Bamba is the most beautiful reptile I’ve ever seen😉❤️

[@asdfghjkasdfghj4939]

And OMFGGGGGGG that green tree python is also super beautiful she’s not even green but she’s amazing😂😂❤️💖

[@hannahcarson5688]

You also shouldn't feed spinach because it is high in oxalates which counter reacts calcium and so the bearded dragon can not absorb calcium or multivitamins right?

[@Stpunk17]

I have pet snails and you shouldn’t feed spinach for that reason so I would assume it’s the same for reptiles

[@andrewvu4170]

Oh wow I never knew chameleons ate veggies, I thought they were strict bug eaters! What kind of chameleon is it? He’s beautiful, I love this video !

[@andrewvu4170]

What happened to your whites tree frog:(

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you!!! He’s a Veiled Chameleon.

[@reptiliangarden]

TheDumpy Duo Hippo passed away sadly. :( I’m still really bummed about it .

[@andrewvu4170]

Reptilian Garden aawww that sucks, he was awesome!

[@brown_gurl]

Veiled chameleons are bigger than I thought lol

[@ivyrose15]

The green tree phyton is the beautiful snake I have ever seen!! And your chamelion is so cute ❤️

[@ihatewillem6575]

No animals were harmed in the making in this video Except for super worms

[@luvlost03]

You have one amazing animal family there and they are all beautiful! And you're enclosure are all on point. Great video definitely one of my faves so far.

[@reptiliangarden]

luvlost03 Thank you so much!! I was worried it was a little much. It’s so many animals to keep in a short amount of time! Lol 😅

[@isabellem8516]

This video is from one year ago(also the same time I started following you) and soooo many things have changed in your reptile room! you’ve improved so much as a keeper during this time! So many cages are bigger and more filled out, changed to bioactive, and your animals have grown healthily. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I have no animals, but watching your videos makes me feel like I had a part in the process ❤️❤️❤️

[@rainigumbo9339]

I’ve been binging your vids for a week now and I love your channel. I wanna be just like you when I grow up. I have quite a few pets right now in my room but when I have my own house I want to set up my pets room just like yours! Your such an inspiration and you have helped inform me about animals and what I should and shouldn’t do. Your also really pretty and I love your tattoos. Thank you so much!💞

[@icebear3587]

Wow all her reptiles looks SO healthy And Happy they have a Awesome Owner.

[@Reptiliatus]

That little thing we talked about makes a big difference my friend ;). Great video!

[@reptiliangarden]

Reptiliatus I’ve noticed!!! Thank you so much for that useful tip! 💕

[@MiBackpacking]

This was just what I needed, thank you! 🙏🏼 we are thinking of adding reptiles to our pet family and feeding them correctly is such an important part of keeping them happy and healthy.

[@alexnava9304]

this is my video on your channel ive seen and ive never seen animals enclosures kept so nice and tidy. by far the best well kept animals on youtube.

[@reptiliangarden]

Alex N Thank you so much!!! I try my best!

[@carriewilliford1225]

Bell peppers are another "red" thing to feed bearded dragons. My beardie loves them. I give it every once in a while :)

[@actualark]

Prety cool how you manage feeding everyone ;) Btw, I also had a crazy crested gecko named Cookie

[@reptiliangarden]

actual ARK Thank you!!! Omg! Maybe the name cookie is cursed lol

[@johnknouse8846]

I can definitely see how much you love those animals. Makes me feel a little less weird that I show so much affection for my snakes!

[@craigsmart1986]

Your animals are all so well looked after it’s nice to see.

[@joecoffaro9215]

OMG so smart w the chameleon feeding so smart, would have never thought of that

[@reptiliangarden]

Joe Coffaro I’m happy to help 💕

[@tyliful]

nice feeding vid. the bluey plate is so cute.

[@reptiliangarden]

Tylor G Thank you! 💕

[@Kissidurp]

Could you make a video on the best starter lizards/snakes? I have been wanting one since I was five, and I am (finally) getting one this summer! I just have to decide what kind! I love your channel

[@kenley8898]

But I absolutely LOVE your turtles enclosures! And also have you tried sand carpet for your leopard gecko? If not you should! It’s pretty much as easy as paper towels!

[@reptiliangarden]

FREDIOS LOLLIPOPS Thank you! And I haven’t only because when they poop on it it seems like a hassle to clean! 😅

[@nomxxxnom]

I knew I would scroll and see those that consider themselves professionals and tell you how to feed your reptile and amphibian friends! I am, by no means a professional but it’s clear that yours are quite healthy, just by watching many other videos and being able to distinguish malnourished from healthy and yours are beautiful/healthy and happy from what I can see! I love your videos, btw! New subscriber!

[@reptiliangarden]

brittney grimes Thank you so much! That means a lot to me! Welcome to the channel!!! 💕💕💕

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you so much! That means a lot to me! Welcome to the channel!!! 💕💕😭

[@soundsys33]

your pets are Awesome and they are so lucky to have you.

[@pythnsrcute7119]

I realised when you fed your rainbow boa it was on the substrate, a great trick to prevent your snake from getting impaction issues is to flip their hide and feed them over it or in it.

[@thepurplecrabapocalypse8953]

Some advice: green tree pythons live in very moist, humid environments. Most snakes will do good with added moisture ( aka spraying as humidity and a fair sized water dish) it keeps their skin healthy and it helps them absorb some of that moisture naturally throughout their skin.

[@reptilesandbugs2703]

Eco earth does not cause impaction all my Leo's pass it like nothing but I do try to avoid them ingesting it

[@Kay-cn3bi]

All of them look great! Their set ups were great from what I saw, and they seem happy

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you!!! 💕

[@jesslaney796]

Like a week ago I googled how old chameleons live for and I’m still shook cus they’re so beautiful and majestic it must be so sad to only be able to have them for a few months? When I got my beardie I went into the reptile shop and they had 2 chameleons (in different enclosures) and they looked so uncared for it was really heartbraking but yours looks so happy!

[@user-bt7vv2wo5r]

That lettuce technique is quite smart, I'll be sure to begin that

[@reptiliangarden]

Ebinee Thank you!!! 💕

[@jadersolano3080]

I just found your channel and i love it, i'm totally delighted with it. I show you my love from El salvador to you and all you beauty pets. New subscriber

[@reptiliangarden]

Jader Solano Thank you so much for your support! 💕💕💕

[@austinburton9247]

Great video! It was awesome seeing how you do things with your pets! Where do you get that frozen turtle diet? I have two turtles and I think they’d like it!

[@reptiliangarden]

Austin Burton Thank you! I got it from pet supplies. Some of the turtles are picky and won’t go for it, but others like it. You never know with picky turtles lol

[@zareptiles]

I am obsessed with all of your snakes names!

[@reptiliangarden]

ZA Reptiles Thank you!

[@JoseMartinez-nt3jb]

Hello there, I'm sammy and I just discovered your channel and I love it.... have a question where I can get those black yellow extended poles in one of your geckos enclosure [ 20:13 ] Been looking for them everywhere.

[@anyataylor9475]

eco earth is completely digestible so you don't need to worry about impaction w your african fat tailed :)

[@addithetoadgirl2429]

Your leopard gecko needs some dirt doesn't he? I mean IG u do u but idk. Also this was really informing! And I have the same water dish for my toad that u use for your leopard gecko!

[@beatricecobham8839]

They are so cute and well taken care of

[@reptiliangarden]

Beatrice Cobham Thank you so much!!! 💕💕💕

[@kalabell12]

One of the best things about my bearded dragon is he LOVES his greens. He’s the least picky eater I’ve ever met!

[@PogonaCraze]

Should be called "feeding all my reptiles and amphibians" :)

[@reptiliangarden]

TRUE! I tried to keep the title a little shorter lol

[@PogonaCraze]

Reptilian Garden Ahh I see, great selection tho! :)

[@MrDayday112]

Great video Trisha! I love watching chameleons eat and Choncho is funny while he's eating. Videos like yours got me back in to reptiles after not having them for a few years. I now have a crested gecko, a corn snake and I recently put a deposit on a pastel enchi 100% het ghost ball python. I'll have just as many as you in no time. Reptiles are addictive XD

[@reptiliangarden]

MrDayDay112 Thank you so much!! That means a lot. I’m so happy you’re getting back into them now! It’s the best hobby. 💕

[@MrDayday112]

I agree. I was actually wondering when you would upload again a few hours ago so was happy to find your video in my sub box :)

[@blakerogers3017]

Her: SHOVES FOOD IN THE GECKOS FACE😂😂

[@abhaygames9183]

This my first video I've seen of of you it's amazing

[@mayarana7950]

How old is your crested gecko? I got mine from a breeder and I’m not sure how old he is. I think he is around the same size as echo your gecko? So I was just wondering

[@shakegans2905]

thank you for helping me with my bearded dragon. i appreciate it, keep up the good vids

[@torquess454]

Lol thought that whistle came from Bowie for a sec, then realized it was just your nose lol cute Don’t forget spinach isn’t good for dragons either for the same reason as kale

[@lizb448]

Where did u get the chameleons large screen enclosure

[@thepurplecrabapocalypse8953]

Also, heat pads CAN burn snakes. Snakes cannot tell if something is hot or cold, so that is why heat rocks are so dangerous. They will literally sit on it until their belly is raw.

[@siennamacalinao5360]

Your reptile room looks like a reptile shop bc of how many reptiles you have lmao

[@tomnoddle6083]

Never been on this channel thouse animals are awesome

[@reptiliangarden]

Tom Noddle Thank you!

[@krispychips5271]

Did you make that net for your chameleon because I really like it and I think it’ll look good with my leopard geckos :3 Btw how many crickets did you feed your leopard gecko 🤔

[@xiao4732]

What a beautiful collection! Great video

[@reptiliangarden]

Jessso Thank you!

[@hr_gingerkat8875]

We all miss banba. I loved him, just like i love my own chameleon.❤️

[@michellehunder7661]

all your reptiles look so happy and comfortable! next time cut your carrot up into smaller pieces. that is what i do for my blue tongue skink/lizard and he seems to eat it really well! great videos.

[@corabertelsen7107]

So with the bearded dragon and the chameleon, feeding them is basically the equivalent of giving children brownies that have zucchini/other veggies in them But they don’t know. Except I’m this case it’s the stuff the like on top of the stuff they won’t eat alone. Superb trick.

[@Ragnorak-op2js]

I love the fact that Metamora (dont know if thats spelled right) is a Green Tree Python but she is clearly red

[@s4turnlover]

Ballora Exotic Butters They change colour as they age. Start off red and then yellow and last green. (At least I think, could be other way around)

[@torquess454]

Hiya, we were told not to feed our beardie spinach nor kale for the same reasons, and with ours I find another way to get his calcium into him is with the liquid drops, I add some to his water we feed him through a syringe or dropper, just because his eating habits are so random, but I can always get water into him

[@KristaM]

I don't know why I never thought of getting chameleons veggies that way. Jack just learned how to use his feeding cup so were gonna have to try this!

[@reptiliangarden]

Krista Moss It’s worth a shot! I hope it works for him 💕

[@shilogetshealthy1007]

This was a long time ago lol but if the skink is having a hard time shedding it's because his humidity are too low. That's the same species as mine and they need 80%

[@rainesrockinreptiles7356]

I’d recommend using a piece of slate to put the bts’s food on if he’s having issues with his bowl. When I get mine that’s what I plan on doing so that it’s food won’t get covered in substrate lol

[@reptiliangarden]

Raine’s Rockin’ Reptiles That’s a good idea. I tried using a shallow bowl because they have such a hard time eating out of bowls and try to eat the actual bowl... lmao 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

[@rainesrockinreptiles7356]

Reptilian Garden I didn’t know that! That’s pretty funny tho! So...if they have hard time eating out of a bowl, does that mean they have a hard time drinking out of one?

[@reptiliangarden]

Raine’s Rockin’ Reptiles I have never witnessed him drinking from the water bowl actually. Lol he just licks moisture off of the leaves when I spray the enclosure similar to my geckos lol

[@rainesrockinreptiles7356]

Reptilian Garden Huh interesting. I’ll keep that in mind when getting mine

[@adriannadragon9392]

Where did you get the dried dandelions? My beardies appetite has sucked for months :( he basically is living off of repashy. He's been to my herp vet for x-rays, blood tests, and fecal tests and basically he's just picky :/ My vet isn't worried about his weight or anything, but I would prefer if he would he greens and insects again.

[@reptiliangarden]

Adrianna Dragon My friend actually gave it to me, but I’ve seen it at select reptile stores. You can also get it online. I also hear that bee pollen works great and gets them to eat their greens as well. If all fails, I would suggest putting the repashy on top of his salad. He will end up eating it on accident if anything. 🤷🏼‍♀️💕

[@adriannadragon9392]

Reptilian Garden I've tried putting the repashy on greens before, but I'll have to check out the bee pollen. I knew it had benifits, but I hadn't heard about it being an appetite stimulant. Thank you! :)

[@anyataylor9475]

you can get them from the rodent section of a lot of pet stores

[@adriannadragon9392]

Anya Taylor Alright, thank you! I currently don't have small mammals and I only go to reptile shops. So I never check out small animal sections. I'll go and take a look :)

[@siennamacalinao5360]

Me: - sees Dude's salad - Me: Damn, he's eating healthier than I am lmao

[@DarDargaming23]

Kiwi if that's his name is beautiful😍

[@reptiliangarden]

Walton Dardar It is! Thank you :)

[@supermothabug]

i’ve never seen a chameleon eat, it’s so cute!

[@thecookingnerd8384]

Why do you use paper towels for some of your enclosure? Bye love your air plant in the one enclosure

[@carriec9824]

16:29 I love the socks

[@ShasaStorm]

Love love loved this video!! ❤️ so cool to see all of your babies

[@reptiliangarden]

Shasa Storm 😘😘😘

[@lexiwebb7096]

With the bearded dragon any type of lettuce isn't good for them it dosent have any good nutrients for them. The "chips" also arent good either. Loved the video tho!

[@reptiliangarden]

Lexi Webb That is not true, actually! There are many lettuces that have a lot of nutritional value for them such as mustard greens, collard greens, Swiss chard and more! The chips were just an added bonus that entices him to eat his food because of the attractive color. I only used romaine because it’s all I had left in the house that day, it’s not what I normally feed by any means because that lettuce in particular doesn’t offer them nutrition. And thank you!!! 💕

[@jaspercook7147]

btw i love your channel the way you take care of your pets is amazing i have 2 geckos 1 bearded dragon and 1 crested gecko

[@jaspercook7147]

your welcome keep up the great work

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you so much! I appreciate it 💕

[@finnhall1668]

I'm pretty sure that the eco earth is digestible and cannot cause impaction, however I love the cautiousness with that kind of stuff because so many people aren't aware of it

[@allelen449]

Your beardie is so adorable!! 😍🐉

[@lisamccullough5150]

I just want to make some suggestions. Your leopard gecko could really use a lot more enrichment. As others have mentioned you need MUCH more foliage and climbing branches for your geckos. I’m not trying to be mean but it made me really sad. Your chameleon looks incredibly healthy and beautiful and the way you feed your turtles is very smart to avoid how gross the water gets.

[@reptiliangarden]

Lisa Mccullough Thank you! I redid my gecko enclosures entirely in a more recent video! I just moved and couldn’t do bioactive anymore, so they definitely needed some remodeling. What would you suggest for the leopard gecko enclosure for enrichment?

[@annaherrera2889]

Your Leo enclosure looks fine! They don't require as much enrichment. They get enrichment from hiding. They aren't the type to run around, they like hiding and relaxing and you have all that there. Maybe just add another hide? I see you have a moist one, and I'm assuming you have the hot one. But maybe a relaxing cool hide? Maybe a hammock? Excavating clay is also really fun. Much more reasonable for the Leo than trees and branches to climb js

[@christinatyree2280]

Your blue tongue said NO VEGGIES TODAY!!!

[@reptiliangarden]

Christina Redes 😂😂😂

[@aidantb8]

Great video but you can definitely feed beardies kale. Spinach is the green that makes it so they can’t properly digest calcium since it absorbs most of it. Again, quality vid, I enjoyed it

[@reptiliangarden]

Aidan Bennett Thank you!!!

[@aidantb8]

Reptilian Garden No problemo

[@monkeyrun2fast]

I'm getting a Leopard Gecko and his or her home is a ten gallon tank with a nice stick on underneath the tank heat mat. And I'm feeding crickets and meal worms.

[@paigejensen8043]

Cassandra Reels as it gets older I recommend a 20 gallon tank,crickets are good but just maybe 4 or 5,and try super worms or hornworms,make sure to make it humid and have. A humid hide along with a basking light and av light,and then with the heating pad they will live that,also I think you should put a digging box with eco dirt or paper towels and nice things that he/she can climb on

[@ruthvanetten7908]

I love your chameleon I am getting one soon I have been doing a lot of research

[@rosiedacherryy6390]

my leopard geckos name is Mango! :) 💗🦎

[@sarahangell3463]

What kind of morph is Echo? My male looks almost exactly like him but since I rescued him I don't know what morph he is

[@kenzieh9927]

FINALLY SOMEONE THAT HAS A BEARDIE

[@emelkrm425]

Do you reccomend an online shop to find tortoise supplies?

[@xeno043]

I'm getting a veiled chameleon ( I've done lot of research ) and I just wanted to know if you have any advice

[@TheosAmarto]

I would also like to add spinach to your list of things that you should avoid for beardies :) and tomatoes should not be a regular thing like you said. Spinach is found to bind calcium worse that kale in dragons something a recent study has found. Great video though! very happy you popped into my videos I may like.

[@reptiliangarden]

Reptile Fan So right! I forgot to mention that! Thank you!!! 💕💕💕

[@TheosAmarto]

No prob! I've been doing a ton of animal research.

[@lebrianeason]

So kale good right cause everytime I look at greens to feed beardies always say kale spinach and mustard greens I feed mustard greens with kale sometimes I feed non citric fruits and I feed other veggies I also feed dandelion

[@TheosAmarto]

The poisonous Ninja no I wouldn't recommend spinach or kale for beardies. They both have been found to bind calcium. Collards, mustard, turnip, those are great greens

[@Debg14]

Your bearded dragon is so funny look at his eyes 👀

[@briannaunderwood6134]

U named ur gecko booger

[@kyrpeponias4427]

Arent u afraid of crickets spreading around your house and cause damage? Please explain to me the whole thing about the cricket feeding, how they are packed to be sent to you and so on Sorry for my bad use of languange

[@scft_moon5331]

Also how do you train your lizards to eat off the tongs?

[@deadyoutubechannel9822]

your amazing with your pets, i’m so happy your pets get treated like this!

[@jaspercook7147]

also i would recommend maybe drying off your mice before giving them to your snake because since its wet dirt can get stuck to it and your snake would eat the dirt. to help with this problem you can either dry off your mouse or put your snake in a different spot like a bin so the mouse doesn't have dirt on it

[@reptiliangarden]

ADHD Advice Thank you!!!

[@jeanniepoynter3914]

ADHD Advice shut up leave her alone

[@victoriahicks6507]

You're going to be a reptile expert 😏😏😏

[@allyburr912]

I don’t think they should have Romaine? (Also, Kale ((in moderate amounts)) is okay. If everything else in their enclosure is on point then you shouldn’t have to worry).

[@sesshomari7236]

Ally Burr yeah they should have romaine but right now they shouldn’t because romaine has been recalled for ecolai (i think thats how its spelled) and its still a bit dangerous for risk of infection.

[@emily-lq6jf]

romaine lettuce is the best option. it’s got a nice balance of vitamins and water compared to other types of lettuce.

[@lebrianeason]

no u it really isn’t nutritional at all for beardies but if it is all u have long as u add something else it should be okay in small amounts

[@emily-lq6jf]

The poisonous Ninja yeah. I just meant that it was the best type of lettuce, not the best type of vegetable. I give it to my guinea pigs as a treat every now and then.

[@lynnebass2495]

Romaine is fine, iceberg is what shouldn't be fed.

[@aqualethal6387]

How much does the food normally add up to cost each week? Also i love your idea with the veiled chameleon you made me and my veiled chameleons life so much easier, thank you, love your vids!

[@reptiliangarden]

LethalGas 9753 Thank you! And honestly it varies. I buy in bulk for things like the mice to make it cheaper. I also breed my own roaches and crickets to feed off every week.

[@leighbenone3022]

Great video thanks 😊

[@huntergodfrey2255]

Thank you!

[@tevynfalcon3297]

Lizards/geckos don't usually get compacted with eco earth.

[@leopardgeckotips8294]

You dont need to worry about geckos getting impacted from Eco Earth... it is made of cocofiber so it will just pass right through

[@appleraple8937]

Do you feed your crested geckos insects and what sort of insects? And do you dust them in calcium for all the geckos? Or dust them in multi vitamin?

[@reptiliangarden]

AppleRaple I feed them insects once a week. Primarily crickets that are gut loaded and dusted in calcium d3. I dust with multivitamin once a month

[@appleraple8937]

Reptilian Garden Thank you so so much! I’ve been trying find answers everywhere! What do you gut load them with? Can you also mix some calcium d3 into their Pangea?

[@reptiliangarden]

AppleRaple You can, but I just dust the insects. You can guy load them with veggies and dark leafy greens 💕 always avoid avocado and beets though, they’re toxic to reptiles.

[@candimvance]

Love your videos, all your babies are so cute! FYI I think it’s Spinach that effects Bearded Dragons diets.

[@reptiliangarden]

Candi Kughn Yes! That too!! I mixed that up with kale. But kale also isn’t great for beardies either. Thank you!
