[@RussianGamer-yf5qy]

For some reason, when I told my older relatives that I got a crested gecko, their first response was, "A live one?" I mean, yes, why would I get a toy one? Isn't that weird? PS. I got a hanging coconut hide and my gecko loves it!

[@kyndallharris7008]

where did you buy your hanging hide i can never find them:)

[@monafaissal9112]

Can I know where you got your coconut hide sense I’ve been looking for one for my Crestie and I’ve had a lot of trouble 😆

[@sly6180]

TheGlossyBoi's search up “crested gecko hanging hide” on amazon scroll down a lil bit and you will find a coconut one

[@sly6180]

Mona Faissal go to amazon and search up “crested gecko hanging hide” scroll down a bit and you’ll find it. 👌🏻

[@camille-dx7jk]

I got a hanging coconut for my crestie as well on amazon it was a Nitangel Coconut Bird Hide. My parents were surprised when I told them I wanted a crestie :)

Why do you have two of the same comment???

[@CG_GamingChannel]

Wow... I never knew raising a crested gecko was so complex and sophisticated... I don't even think I should raise my own Pacman now that I observe

[@mitchelll899]

ProtopulsarGames I had a Pacman in a vivarium for years. She got big fat and lazy but loved nightcrawlers.

[@5kulld]

Its pretty simplel

[@a.j.simental4575]

The last part about the poop! 😂 so true! I usually grab my gecko for about a minute, set him down and he’ll usually go then I’ll grab him again.

[@AlexSanchez-kl1rh]

I absolutely adore her videos they are so informative and I binge watch her channel even tho I have seen all of her videos

[@Goldenass1]

This is seriously one of the more informative videos about crested gecko care! This KZbin channel is really underrated.

[@0Xaldin3]

recent discoveries showed that the new caledonian wild geckos' stomach content is close to 50/50 when it comes to fruits and bugs ratio. also to note, they can be fine for short temperature spikes of +/- 5 F when accounting to their natural range of 70F - 80F, but not for extended periods so still keep an eye on that yours truly a canadian owner of 3 crested, and 1 rescue AFT

[@toottootbleetbleet]

My adult Marmalade LOVES to poop on me 🙄 she’s lucky she’s cute 😂

[@KissMySass09]

I just got my first baby crestie a few days ago. I’m in love and I just wanted to say how helpful your channel has been ❤️

[@kodavulpedrius6712]

Yes!! Yes!!! I totally agree with your vivarium sizes! Most people keep them in much smaller enclosures, about 40 cm tall, 25 cm wide, but I say at least 60cm tall! I like 90cm tall, 60 wide.

[@bryancorona1184]

Yahhh thank you!!! I've been looking forward into this video for so long!!!

one of the best care videos i've seen so far! I love your setup! i was going to set up a 45x45x60 for mine, but after seeing your 60x45x60 i feel like i might need to get myself one of those instead. Love the additional space it gives for more plants and climbing space. You can really tell how much you love your animals, and they're living the life of royalty ;)

[@themostawesomeguy0978-]

Wow!!! You covered almost all of the basic care needs of crested geckos. This video looks to definitely be very reliable. Great video this should help a lot of people. Also, I’ve never seen a crested so crazy about a diet. I guess Lyra just really enjoys Pangea

[@lynnferris2621]

I wat hed this video bc I have one and thank you so much mam!!!

[@iloverocks10]

Your video overall is very good and this isn't meant as meant to be negative just some corrections You can house a small gecko in a larger enclosure aslong as you have proper plant coverage and and offer multiple locations with for food that way they don't have trouble finding it, the second thing i wanted to say is you can house a male and female together i dont recommend it as it will lead to egg production and possibly exhaust the female from to much breeding but if you are experienced with them and know how to monitor the signs of possible aggression or if the female is being bred with to much it is possible to house them together. P.S. Congrats on 100k i do find you to have very good content and i hope your channel continues to grow.

Minty-Chan DIGI you do realise that the leopard gecko will get really stressed by this and will perform a lot of territorial movements which can really stress them out

Couple questions when you say the tank dimensions do you mean cms as I always thought they needed a 20 gallon tank
