EXACTLY! :') the amount of people who still don't grasp the concept that leos dont need uvb light, is crazy! I think it mainly comes from people who own reptiles who truly need the uvb light, and they just assume leos need it too.

[@joshmurphy1956]

Hey leopard gecko your here too :)

[@irenexu9597]

+Leopard Gecko The worst part is when they think leopard geckos need UVB, and when it comes to a reptile who actually needs it, like a box turtle, they don't think they need it. >:( >:C

[@92mahl]

Leopard Gecko uvb is optional but not bad either way. it does however help with a light/dark cycle indoors, but mainly it assists with D3 so you don't have to worry as much about supplementing it (I still do, but they need less supplements with the light). oddly enough my geckos love to bask in the light, even though the they have 3 hides of different temperatures. I use a bulb that isn't super strong.

[@trey5285]

Leopard Gecko now I know this is completely not what your talking about but I know they send notifications so what morph is Diego you're leopard gecko

[@tjadabutler9711]

leperd gecko wiy are you looking at this video you have your own chanle

[@marialynch584]

7:51 The gecko is like "Fear me!" And then there's Brian, "Every time that just kills me with cuteness"

[@jonathanvandagriff7515]

temperatures you incubate at also determines color!!! high Temps are brighter colors. and lower Temps are darker colors. that's how you get chocolate albinos which are dark albinos

[@zombiepm3762]

Jonathan Vandagriff thanks!

[@tarkelson2457]

That’s not true at all 😂

[@blursed_boi9602]

Personally I like this Brian way more then the new one

[@gavin7325]

Your setups are so inspirational man. I wish I could make money from keeping animals to the best of my abilities. I really see why so many people want your animals.

[@waragainstmyself1159]

Stumbling upon this guys videos about boa constrictors made something inside me light up. Then I started looking more and more, and fell in love with geckos. I think I want to start with a crested gecko, and maybe have one or two so my daughter can have one. They are absolutely beautiful.

[@VICTOOREXOTICS]

amazing chapter, I love these animals every day more and to bring with them is an incredible experience, and even more having a great reference point as you snakebytes! The best! Like

[@Alonofer20]

Wow as I was watching this it made me want to check out my Giant Day Geckos and enclosure and see if my female laid another clutch and sure enough I caught her laying a clutch! Today is a good day :)

[@EcologyArk]

Another great video Brian, I hope you are enjoying Africa!!

[@qtfds-rtvqw6393]

About time the showed the shop again i missed the shop i miss old snakebytestv do more at the shop love the show do the should still do there own snakebyestv show except on here love the show tho leopard geckos(:

[@calomiko05]

it looks like your collection of gecko's is getting bigger.. I hope you get a new morph, and I know, one day, you will become successful on it too. just like what you did in the ball phyton. I'm excited to see the little baby gecko's...

[@elliot8087]

Keep up the good work Brian

[@chrisstolle5664]

This video was really helpful and inspiring. I've had leopards for years and they only produced eggs once for me and I didn't know what to do. Looks like I'll try again!

[@Bruhx31-r2h]

I love your videos Brian I love leopard geckos and I'm starting to breed geckos.

[@ricardovelazquez2557]

I love the bright colors on these geckos! Awesome job brain

[@GWRevolutionTV]

great tidbit of info. since ive never owned a leopard gecko, I never knew that sex was determined by incubation temp. just like turtles!

[@ethanladue2745]

Why do u have that one leopard gecko in such a small cage

[@addisonledley6307]

Oh my goodness. I came from Brian’s channel! I’ve NEVER seen him so calm. I’m kinda Scared. lol. Love ya Brian

[@christopherhamilton7055]

I really like the bright bright orange varieties like Sunglow or Rainwater Firebold crosses.

[@daverichards4415]

Thoroughly enjoyed your video. will be looking for more! I don't as yet have a gecko, but I believe I am taking on board a rescue on thursday. My eyes are square from watching you tube for the past 2 days, but I want to know as much as I can before he arrives. Thank you For your energy and love of the wee ones

[@ajdayton101]

Always learning so much from these videos. Thanks so much for the great info.

[@tylersantiago3810]

I don’t like how rough he is with his geckos :,v

[@dragonjuice5604]

I thought my gecko was the only one that pooped in one corner! Haha~

[@thegreenman32890]

Great, now i need a couple leopard geckos! Haha

[@KdOdom7]

The squealing gecko is so cute! I have 4 Geckos

[@chelseyhutchason1070]

[@JaspervanMinnen]

Great show as always Brian! Very interesting stuff! As a metalhead, I really want to know what the song is you always use. Starts somewhere at 4:00 minutes. Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@ohaiyoashchan]

[@ryannelson7436]

[@almeadows4219]

[@williamcoles9742]

[@Zebra-dogs]

Danny Doty I hope you're in England. I'm in the UK so I can't buy from him :(

[@ciarajoely2018]

I see you everywhere!!!

[@dr.jrivera6330]

+Danny Doty I bought a snake from him, he ships very professionally and my snake was pretty docile and already accustomed to taking frozen pinkies, 10/10!!!!!

[@hamiltontrash9151]

Dr. J Rivera Cool! where did you get the snake, do they sell other reptiles?

[@theWazimu]

Yes! thought we were gonna miss out since you went to SA!

[@manchio6515]

[@kinleyjohnson3929]

[@kirstenlee99]

[@Ab-tb3es]

Kirsten morrison why don't u look it up. Believe it or not that's a thing called the Internet! If you've heard of it

[@kirstenlee99]

Anisha Chaudhry belive it or not I didn't ask for your sarcastic view!

[@shadowhime8744]

Anisha Chaudhry calm down and chill XD

[@misaelintriago5434]

So, I know that this is an old video, but I was just wondering: do you need an actual incubator to incubate the eggs, or can you just put them in large containers like Brian did? I know it’s probably a dumb question but someone plz respond!

[@kewlsweetheart]

i watched this video because i accidently bred my geckos. i got them as babies about 5-6 months ago couldnt tell at first who was a what but now my female is laying. I wanna say thanks for helping me know what to do for her eggs. I'm planning to go out and get a new set up within the next week or so i can seperate the boys from the girls cuz I never planned to breed and don't have the space for it

[@borcigiana]

Thank you!

[@porpoise9289]

you should go to Repticon if you like reptiles a lot!

[@reptileaisle2788]

Can u do a show on blood/short tail pythons? id love to see that

[@Phantomzilla90]

More leopard gecko vids please!!!

[@victorharpe5817]

Could you try a video on blood pythons and the ones you have?

[@oscarzapata7327]

good job brian what other bugs can you feed leopard geckos love these geckos and your videos...

[@happygillmore8210]

You can feed mealworms, crickets, Dubai roaches and many many others

[@oscarzapata7327]

but like what

[@j.t.3378]

OK, maybe you can help. T.just bought a leo two weeks ago and still not eating. No to meal worms, crickets. People said she's still getting use to new environment. Her tail is still chubby and runs around. Lots of energy. Please advise.

[@dr.karasuoverhaul6963]

lol I've never seen a leopard gecko that salty!!

[@PkmHax]

So you dont have to breed them after every lay of eggs? But helps for fertility of you breed them at the beginning and half way through?

[@seldomscales4616]

Leoaprd Geckos are what started it for me, they really are amazing animals to work with and breed. How's Africa Brian? I hope you're having a hell of a time Harry ~ Newton Exotics ~

[@seldomscales4616]

I'm going to get some of those egg trays

[@jennzack28]

OMG, the babies are So tiny!! I would Love to get one for my daughter!!! Thanks for another Great vid Brian!!!

[@desiangel1231]

They are great animals and get along with a lot of things. I would go for it and I bet your daughter will be happy!!

[@jennzack28]

Desiree Sustello Thank You!!! I will Deff check them out!!

[@ajisstillright]

Please don't get one for your daughter she's ganna kill it I bet please don't these type of animals don't like to be pet a lot they are more just to look at and they are NOT meant for children

[@jennzack28]

Joshy Savage LoL, My daughter is 16.. I'm sure she would be fine with it.. Thank You though!

[@ajisstillright]

Jenn Zack Oh 16 than hell yeah you should but her one I'm sorry I thought she was like a little girl hahaha but yeah you should buy one for her

[@ryanhadlow2958]

I have a Female Tremper Albino Leopard Gecko and I've always thought about getting another male to breed, however I don't know if 3 years old is too old to breed or whether the male is biting her for territorial reasons or nipping her before mating. She is 75 grams aswell so an ok breeding weight.

[@nate54]

When the male is nipping her tail he is pretty much getting ready to breed, it's not uncommon for lizards to bit their partners for better grip while mating

[@justminemon]

They usually mature at one year and yeah, I think that 75 grams is a good weight. To see if they're a good size, their tail will usually be the size of your thumb.

[@justminemon]

Also three years is a fine age to breed your leo :D

[@ryanhadlow2958]

Thank you

[@jkmarblejk7445]

They live for 20 years dude

[@brynnwalsh6984]

What size plastic boxes are they using for them to live in?

[@brendensullivan5779]

So for incubation we can just leave them at room temp my room stays around 75 degrees of not can I just put a heating pad and spray eggs once a while

[@mmsolo5107]

Is it ok to use the pre-punched deli cups to incubate the leopard gecko eggs?

[@Shreyosis]

Next week could you do a redux on the bearded dragon video? The leopard geckos have had several episodes dedicated to them, but the bearded dragons have just the one video. In addition, the old bearded dragon video has some dated information. Maybe in the new video you can include tips on breeding, feeding, and morph identification.

[@natashascaife404]

"But we usually give them the weekend off" 😂😂😂

[@TheBabylus]

I want to ask something so I have leopard gecko and I want to breed them but do u need to incubate the egg??? Because my room tempeture is around 82-90 F so do I need to incubated the egg plss help me??

[@reptilegirllover1025]

no u don't! just put them in a plastic container that's moist and put them in a closet and boom your done until they hatch

[@xdjx95]

I love reptiles and have some friends breeding and selling them. But something i hate when the hobby turns into a bussines is the handling of the animals. It becomes loveless and careless. I know for sure that those animals are healthy and in perfect conditions tho. I think you got my point.

[@tbonesquad9986]

Thank you so much man!! Mines is a female

[@Snows_collection]

hey Brian how many times a year can u breed 1 female just once and they will produce for the rest of the year or do u have to breed again after the first batch of eggs

[@eros5556]

great video

[@Gendereuphoria]

Can you please do an extensive video like this on hognose snakes please?

[@razoRjaw75]

That was an awesome video dude!

[@rethnapnotrab420]

Just curious if you started your own Reptile Prime now or if your still using Eco Earth

[@michaelscreativecreations]

Great Show!!

[@charlieromanos8811]

Have you started breeding leopard geckos for the 2015 season

[@Doxicyclin]

Hello, Can you help me with my LG eggs, I'm very new at this. I bought a female LG from a friend who needed money for his wife hospitalization (their having triplets). Anyway, I didn't know the LG was pregnant (per say)... but last month and the month before it laid 4 eggs. how do you prevent mold from growing on the eggs? my LG products its first clutch... 4 eggs total this year. 3 of the eggs developed molds and shriveled and the 4th one did hatch... but only because I checked on it everyday and cleaned it free of molds every 3 days with a cotton bud dipped in anti fungal powder. Now I think my female is gonna lay more eggs in a few weeks, I'm afraid it's going to have eggs that's gonna get eaten by molds again.

[@crystalclearuniverse5228]

It might be the amount of humidity and moisture in the incubator. I'm not 100% sure though. Try lowering the humidity and see what happens.

[@what2431]

DOX9500 they don't need to be pregnant They lay eggs regardless like chickens

[@ARodriguez258]

I would love to watch some Leopard Gecko babies hatch! Do you cut the eggs open like with snakes, or do you let them hatch naturally?

[@FloridaWildlife]

I just bought a Hypo Max Snow het Bell Albino possible het Eclipse from him for a future breeding project

[@lukekeegan2374]

Is it just me or are they not uploading as much

[@sirdallin4089]

Yeah it is just you.

[@lukekeegan2374]

K

[@XxTearsforeverxX]

luke keegan Well brian is in Africa right now

[@lukekeegan2374]

Ok thanks

[@jaeyun1493]

Do you turn on your notif.? Cuz its just you

[@sandraguzman143]

What morph are the girls from the last tub he took the eggs out ?

[@buckfield_outdoors418]

so would it be bad if I bred my geckos towards the end of the breeding year, such as August or September

[@melanijameiere3765]

My Leo is a hypo. But I don't know what morphs have been bred to make a hypo or is it just 1 morph type?

[@chickenmafia8016]

Would you do more videos on geckos Brian 😊👍 leopard and crested geckos and all kinds 😊👍

[@lizardlovershelby]

Hi leapord gecko I've watched your videos before.

[@cpk2GIRL]

Is there an atlas or a reference chart somewhere of all the common Leo morphs?

[@jocelyngomez3921]

I feed my geckos crickets and I have two that I really wanna breed

[@ArtKidTV]

Great show Brian, looking forward to getting a leopard when we get to the states. Btw how can you possibly be filming at home if you're still in South Africa? ;)

[@elliot8087]

+Arthur Kidawa (the Kidawa show) he has pre-recorded videos

[@ArtKidTV]

;) I know

[@jamesmichalzik9898]

Tank you I needed that

[@southbayla3137]

Hey Bryan I think you didn't go into much detail like do you need to feed the females while you cool them down for the 2 months?

[@blakechapman7304]

+Francisco Diaz yes you have to feed all animals no matter what or it will die.

[@buckfield_outdoors418]

So when I put the male in with the female, do I just leave the male in there for about 20-30 mins or when there done breeding do I just separate them or leave the male in there?

[@niltongamez]

Super informative video man! I have a question about a different subject, king rats. In that species is the male or the female the larger sex?

[@markussavoie6254]

If I have two leopard gecko pets living in the same tank, after they breed should I separate them or would they be okay together?

[@Kaymesha]

12:52 look at the table and u see a worm lol

[@jeffgey5583]

Do leopard geckos be a heat lamp or can I just you a heat pad and put it under their substrate

[@kylelou1993]

Do you just spray your eco-earth with a spray bottle or do you pour water into it?

[@adengravett]

There’s been alot of talk on forums and such about aggression and dominance among cohabiting females, have you experienced any of this in all your years breeding?

[@jerrycha363]

Yes I been waiting for this

[@tayo5380]

Brian how did you start your business because if I want to breed an animal and sell them how would I do they that? Were did you start selling you reptiles?

[@Goblintails]

where do you need a permit, Where i am you can just go out get any animal you want and start off

[@mikedaskalakis5006]

Apocalyptic Creations yea me too and nobady asks for a permit.I didnt even knew that there is a permit.

[@cooperlikosar8844]

Does anyone know physical differences between slug and infertile leopard gecko eggs? Thanks!

[@curtisdonahoo3828]

I have trouble keeping the eggs alive. I put them in vermiculite and they never seem to stay hydrated enough. Any tips

[@Slowboi335xi]

im starting breeding leo's again, im gonna breed a tangerine with a albino hope it looks cool

[@telinstrong6327]

Could I use compost for a lay box substrate

[@shezmuptahamon9331]

I've got a dark Mack snow and a shtctb

[@dalve2683]

so if your not breeding geckos, then they can live of meal worms? also can they have wax worms as a treat?

[@homervasquez9708]

Yea you can

[@carljr9222]

i just got a a baby gecko and i need help with to things number 1 i need to tame him. number 2 what is a easy way to feed crickets to the gecko

[@ethandemoura4717]

This is of topic but when I first bring a snake home how long should I wait before I start trying to feed it

[@Box.circus]

Hi with mine I did 3 or 4 days then offer food outside of cage to avoid cage aggression!

[@SkyLord2454]

Great video!!!!!! If I were to one day breed my male tangerine with my female enigma, what morphs would the babies be?

[@neoraox4339]

Can you make a video of your facility and your crew?

[@juanchinito]

Is it ok if i dropped the egg of my LG around 5-6inches high?

[@asianbatman555]

Wow you have a lot of leopard geckos lol I only have one (I have a couple of vids about him).
