Getting a Crested Gecko || Petco Sold Me a Leopard Gecko??? || VLOG

[@JadaNoelle]

Hi everyone! 2 Year Update is out now ! 💜

[@urfavellee]

your tank needs to be taller and less wide, with branches and leaves for him to climb

[@clive_choppa2255]

For a crested gecko you need a tall exo terra tank setup

[@Marco._r1os]

Not specifically a exo terra tho…

[@jasminahaverinen5759]

Well the tank was more suitable for the leopard gecko 😆 cresties need vertical space and lots of branckes and plants to climb on. Both geckos are wonderful pets to handle. Petco is not a good place to get a pet tho, I would recommend getting them from a breeder or specialized quality reptile store tho. But I wish all the best for you and your lizard friend! Edit the poor little baby leopard gecko 💖 poor thing had even dropped its tail and grown it back 💔 I would have honestly kept the little guy 😅 but I'm a softie

[@amaianimates5605]

Agreed

[@JadaNoelle]

it’s me from the future! haha. i completely agree with all your points. i had used that cage temporarily until I felt it was old enough to find it’s food in a large vertical tank! currently (2 and a half years later) he’s happy and healthy and in a 18x18x24 exo terra! also, I don’t support petco either. im very lucky to have gotten a healthy gecko. but for anyone looking for a gecko i agree it’s best to go to a reputable breeder! thanks for watching 💕

[@andrewmontez7556]

@@JadaNoellethat was truly a very suitable tank for a tiny baby like that. Like it truly could’ve stayed there for the first two years of its life. I’m super impressed with your research!!

[@julesssg]

You need more views, this was so funny 😂

[@JadaNoelle]

Awww thank you I appreciate it😭❤️❤️

The queen came backkkk 🙈❤️

🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️

[@Payton-r3u]

The leopard gecko was sooo pretty 🥺 also loved the video your crestie is so cute hope she/he is doing well

[@JadaNoelle]

Thank you!! It is! I should be able to post an updated video soon!!❤️

[@Payton-r3u]

@@JadaNoelle great I’m looking forward to watching it!

[@megan_izzers]

gurl plz i love this video we need you to reupload the updatessssss

[@JadaNoelle]

Aww yes I've been planning to upload an update video really soon💗He is 2 years old now and doing great!

[@fusionjsgamingchannel7616]

This video is so underated I cracked up at the end

[@JadaNoelle]

Awwww thank you !!

[@natiethesalamander]

I know how you feel! Tbh I want a leopard gecko and I would be frustrated if they got the wrong one! Edit: I love that you set up everything before you got the gecko!

[@baumedifferenziertbetracht9562]

She didn't set up anything. I could set up the same enclosure with my shoe box, some toilet paper, 3 euro plastics and a bottle of water.... Damn poor animals !

[@1ovsurf]

Hey love the vid but you might want to turn the tank on its side be cause they are arboreal meaning they need a vertical space 🙂

[@loony6925]

Just to let you know crested geckos don't need insects but for a healthy diet and to make them grow a little quicker you should feed them crickets, meal worms etc but not all people do it your gecko will just grow a little slower and I saw that you only have a thermometer you need to get a humidity gauge to

[@JadaNoelle]

Yes!! Since this video, I’ve began feeding my gecko gut-loaded crickets once a week. I noticed that it would lunge at things that move and water droplets on the glass haha, so i figured the pet shop was definitely feeding him crickets previously. I have also bought a humidity gauge since this video as well! Learning day by day but it seems very happy and healthy. 🤍

[@loony6925]

@@JadaNoelle that's great ya you pretty much did everything good in this video it looks like you researched and it wasn't a impulse buy. But glad your gonna give that little gecko a amazing life.

[@baumedifferenziertbetracht9562]

If I got her right she has a female crestie and the females need way more calcium for egg production. So even though you may be right in common sense of crested geckos, especially for adult ones, the females need special treatment for calcium purposes if they do not get fed insects.

[@rubejones7426]

I think I have the powdered food I haven't looked at it yet have some stuff for geckos and I thought I was gonna get a gecko but my parents had a bearded dragon cause our ceiling there would be high up and it thought would probably climb up there🤗😅It's really hard to have a bearded dragon there are need a lot of attention😩

[@hxrrison5]

Just a heads up regarding the water for the crestie.. You can use normal tap water as long as you use ReptiSafe, to remove any chemicals or bacteria which is harmful to them! Just a helpful tip - we use it for our 9 reptiles - including leopard geckos and cresties and it works amazing! :)

[@JadaNoelle]

Thanks for the tip !! 💗

[@hxrrison5]

@@JadaNoelle no worries! hope you have a great time with your crestie! it’s so cute too! 🥺

[@dannymeek7924]

Or you could just let your tap water sit with an open lid so all the chlorine evaporates after 24hours…. I don’t trust ANY chemical deemed “safe” , that is sold by any major pet store/business let alone the tap water supplied by our government… I just upgraded my tap with a reverse osmosis kit for under $200… I’ll never have to worry about crap water again (for both me & my reptiles)…,

Serving with my lizard when I turn 12I mean20Geckos or lizards in my house I can't wait it's gonna be so fun and so busy I'll be like in high school probably or middle school I don't know😄

[@biggface7]

Peace ✌🏾 dope video! I wanna get my daughter one. Just to confirm, they don’t need live food correct? She doesn’t like bugs😂

[@JadaNoelle]

I hate bugs as well but unfortunately throughout time I learned that it’s best to feed them both bugs and their fruit diet🥲 I feed mine the Pangea fruit mix 4 times a week and crickets once a week. While they get most of their nutrients from the fruit mix, they grow a lot slower without bugs, and can become a bit underweight. I will be making an updated video on how I care for mine so look out for that video in the next 2 weeks or so for more tips! It’s been 2 years owning mine and he’s doing great.

[@yaryjavier5927]

love blue

[@MD-2612]

Did you do a pick up order or something? I know this is old I just am confused how you got all the way home with the wrong animal if you went to the store to get it? Lol

[@thegreatest8112]

Set-up is super dope and it looks great

[@jess6882]

i love this 😭

[@JadaNoelle]

Thank you ❤️

[@0ptccopa434]

Pet smart is like a McDonald’s drive through, check the bag before you leave

[@rubejones7426]

That's what happened when I got my lizard yeah I had to go back to the store and say this was my wrong lizard I had it make sure there's like 1 more left in there if there's not you're bad luck you're probably have to wait May be for a long time I don't know it was for couple of days but maybe it's a long time for those geckos come back in there tickle it 1 week it was lot for me like oh my god😵😱

[@julietterichards5214]

Loved ur video n ur new crested gecko

[@perryukulele3706]

I have a Leo and I think you did a really good job for keeping it overnight:)

[@hamster_life6750]

I feel bad for the leopard gecko I was like yess I found a home someone wants me and then you return it and it be like was I naughty what did I do I want t.o cry

[@alyssagottner4020]

I’m so invested pls post an update 😂❤️

Just posted a 3 month update of my crested gecko! Check it out! ❤️

[@Makingofabetterlife]

My Stevie is a Leopard Gecko and so smart. She begs to be fed and held. I just love her. Okay off to watch the vlog. 🙂

[@JadaNoelle]

Awww i love it!! Hope you enjoyed!❤️

[@Makingofabetterlife]

@@JadaNoelle Omg, I definitely enjoyed it. You are such a caring kiddo that I feel like your new crested gecko hit the lottery with you. Did you finally name them? Also, the Leopard Gecko had lost its tail, that fat tail was a regrow. They were so cute too!

[@Makingofabetterlife]

@@JadaNoelle Definitely! I'll set a reminder to watch as soon as I wake up. Thanks for letting me know. 🥰💚

[@QuietBreezie]

I would have been pissed...but glad they let u take it bk for the correct one👍🏾

[@rubejones7426]

Yeah I love reptiles I even have a bearded dragon😄Iris 2It was pretty hard yeah it was like what do I do with this cause it thought I've been searching by it but it was actually about I didn't know how to say bearded dragon no I do Cause I thought it was a gecko I was gonna get Set up but he's in the gecko set up

[@nixnixnixnixiiii]

Hi can u do an update video? ❤️

[@JadaNoelle]

Update posted! Check it out 💕

[@Zackyt4469]

Your supposed to feed them crickets once a week

[@meichan5594]

Looked just like the petco I went to get a crestie. The worker reached into pick up a random leopard gecko instead of a crestie.

[@flowerbirds2961]

The wrong lizard made the video even more entertaining. Unpredictability is good sometimes 👍🏾 Awesome video 😉❤️❤️❤️

[@Lonzothabodyz]

Omggg I got one too like 2 months ago and I love him. Just learned how to hold him today !!

[@JadaNoelle]

Awwww thats the best feeling!! Its so nerve racking at first but once you and the gecko get used to it, its the cutest thing!!!

[@idorandomstuff6153]

Tmr I'm handling my baby crestie for the first time still figuring out how to get him out

[@JohanExoticGlobal]

I love the smell of that flavor tooo lol I seriously wanna try it lol Petco, never seems to fail.. How do you even manage to pic the wrong one.... lol

[@JadaNoelle]

Right i love it!!! & Petco isnt the best but was the best option for me at this time lol

[@JohanExoticGlobal]

@@JadaNoelle Right! lol Yea. well petco is the best option for many people so i defiantly have no hate on that. From what I heard I just wish that they hired more knowledgeable employees lol

[@joelvelasco6576]

id say everything is fine with how you did this , the only thing id change would be instead of a horizontal cage get a vertical cage since crested geckos like to go up and down rather from side to side, since thats how they live in the wild up in the trees.

[@j.t.3378]

I'm picking up my crested gecko this weekend. His name will be Jasper.

[@JadaNoelle]

Love the name ❤️❤️ You’ll love it.

[@asmrlovely2639]

My petco is great. They treat the animals great and most have their own reptile.

[@Katie-cu4ku]

Just hopefully helpful, advice is don't use drinking water for reptiles, use reptisafe water conditioner its blue and you add a few drops to tap water making it safe for them

[@nalgon2270]

What floor did you use in tryna get one myself and i don't wanna mess up his little house 😅

[@JadaNoelle]

I use paper towel as a substrate because i dont want the risk of it eating soil on accident!

[@animeedits6178]

Imma get one and my friend came up with a name called twig

[@lewis_rides]

You need a dirt floor and they drink of the leaves not out of a tub

[@petercho8910]

They need insects couple times a week with calcium powder.

[@johnpaige8914]

I’m sorry but like the leopard gecko was soooo adorable….I felt bad for it lmao I have my own leopard gecko and she’s adorable and in my opinion she’s the chilliest leopard gecko I’ve ever seen, part of me was like just keep the leopard gecko please lol

[@mackenziegreen2056]

Geckos aren't lizards and also you should also be mixing in crickets when they are older they also dont drink standing water

[@ksprice45]

They aren’t lizards? Wth are you talking about

[@Im2faded4u]

Geckos are lizards lmao are u good? And they do drink from bowls 😂

[@rubejones7426]

Can I have a gecko and I have a bearded dragon when I'm like 20 and I'm 12 right now so I'm gonna have in a couple of years on my birthday Like8 more gears telling me to get my gecko so I'm gonna have 2 animals in the house a bearded dragon and a used to call a gecko and then I'm gonna have a gecko in my house💗🐕😵😌

[@deez2863]

get a tall tank later on. theyre geckos that natrually will climb more than being on the floor and its alot better for them to have a tall

[@88chapo]

How much is a crested gecko ima try to save up😖

[@nixnixnixnixiiii]

70-80$

[@gecko-guy362]

It's crazy they scam you it's like a freaking prank🤣

[@rubejones7426]

Terrible in the happened so look the next day I had a wait for like 1 week and my friends are like do you have a lizard yet and I was like no like why Because I was like OK Let's talk about it when I get it probably I was like how did this happen like I don't know maybe they didn't hear me clear or maybe like the person took it and then right away or there too busy in this didn't notice I think like there are 2 busy it was so crazy I had to get like different type of food for them and I but we just gave it a lot like you cause I was scared if I was gonna die cause

[@Throwmerked]

This is proll staged cause that tank is more suitable for a leopard Gecko than a crested gecko. even if it wasn't you must not have done your research because crested geckos usually are more comfortable in versicle tanks.

[@mikaylapollin8718]

That’s definitely crazy cause Petco doesn’t carry adult leopard geckos.-. 😭😆

[@Beanfromremio]

Fine I believe you

[@funko_hunter8950]

Your leopard gecko soo 🥰

[@thelizardlover6838]

How does that happen

[@gecko-guy362]

This is why I get all my reptiles from breeders

[@frubnut1226]

i really hope that tank will be upgraded. that is no where near big enough for a crested gecko

[@Eye-Am-exclipse]

Can’t let ppl enjoy stuff huh

[@brookenagel3680]

She did say she would be upgrading

[@Zackyt4469]

They need to climb

[@Notexxtra]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@JadaNoelle]

Shattap 😭😭😭😭

wow my petco never has one that large... they're always babies by me.

[@hjajjasjajaj5324]

I’m early???

[@JadaNoelle]

Yesss !!

[@fusionjsgamingchannel7616]

I think the name should be June or Jade The 2nd one kinda sounds like your name but if these options are good I will let you pick

[@JadaNoelle]

Would you believe I've had the gecko for almost 2 months now and I still don't have a name lol!! I love those ideas though. For now I've been calling it Blue, like the dinosaur from Jurassic World haha.

[@kitch_mimball]

Name of Fiji because you only give it Fiji water

[@JadaNoelle]

Lol thats not a bad idea!

[@rubejones7426]

Pause the video I have some gecko stuff I wish I can give it to you but I'm like a random person online so no I want a whole bunch of ghost stuff cause our friend had a gecko but we know we have a bearded dragon🤔How many get it to but I wish I can get it to cause it's not a lot of money cause you would have to waste some money on getting some gecko like calcium stuff for it

[@rubejones7426]

Do you wanna get my lizard finally oh goodness I would like talking a lot about stuff that you need yeah all the powder wait do you have the powder you can have my powder I'm kidding not kidding please read the comments🤔😭😌🐉

[@samayaland548]

My question is..how did you not see what they gave you? 😂😂

[@JadaNoelle]

Hear me out😭. They put my crestie in a box, then brought the box to the cash register for me to get checked out, but there was a line. So i waited on line but they had several reptiles being purchased that day. So there was several reptile boxes at the register. Im guessing the lady either mislabeled my box or simply handed me the wrong one. But i didnt think she would mess it up 🤦🏽‍♀️.

[@christinazanino4476]

hi I don't mean to be rude but that cage is horrible for both of those geckos please do your research before getting any animal btw this video made me so angry and please do not get any animal from Petco

[@annaholmes6185]

I mean you got an animal from Petco what did you expect :)

[@Beanfromremio]

That is a bad tank for a crested gecko but good for a leopard and your lying Becouse you see them put it in the box

[@amaianimates5605]

I would like to say that that enclosure is not suitable for a crest gecko it is there for a leopard gecko do you need vertical length nuts floor space for a crusty so that’s actually a really good enclosure for a leopard gecko I understand that you’re mad but your closure was more suitable and maybe if you tipped it up on its side it would be suitable for a cresty

[@scottzok5374]

She is mean I have a leopard gecko and I’m totally fine with it. I really wanted a bearded dragon but my leopard gecko is my favorite animal so she has to be grateful.

[@taximir1826]

Crested geckos need vertical tanks btw😅

[@maggiecameron7291]

im sad i dont have a pet

[@presleywillis1290]

Honestly that tank you have is perfect for a leopard gecko but not good for a crested
