As weird as it might sound, five lined skinks are 1 of my favorite lizards to keep. They are very common in the wooded areas where I live and they settle into captivity pretty much instantly. I keep mine outside in my 100 gallon Rubbermaid cattle tank that I have my strawberry plants in and feed them red runners that I have thousands of. I do catch them out of my strawberry bin every November because they can't dig down past the frost line in the bin and would freeze to death. I hibernate them in another bin on my enclosed back porch during the winter. They stay in the mid 30s to low 40s. That's low enough to hibernate but without freezing to death. Then in mid April back outside in the strawberry bin they go. I get babies every year. Most of the time I release the babies into a rock pile on my property. Now they are probably here to stay. I like that they are native and can be successfully bred outside here in Maryland. I also like the males bright red heads. My strawberry harvest has went way up because the skinks will eat any insects that try to get the strawberries. I had 1 of my males for almost 10 years before he passed away but I don't know what his true age was because he was a wild caught adult. I really like that I got them established on my property now but I will always keep a few in captivity so that I will always have babies to release on my property. They can become very tame and some of them will eat from your hand.

Crested geckos are BY FAR the easiest and most inexpensive to care for!! I have four now--two of them were given to me for free with their enclosures and food. Literally I got everything I needed to care for them, just given to me. Can't beat free! And one of the ones I was given/took in for free is my literal best friend. He is the best little dude ever, and the reason I now own 4! His cute little permanent smile and chill temperament is also how he has managed to convert people who were NOT reptile people, into reptile people. I'm telling you, I have multiple friends and coworkers who are OBSESSED with him and gush and fawn over him any time they see him. I purchased one at a place that shall not be named (I have learned my lesson), and my latest one was at an expo. Overall, I am so so happy with my crested geckos, and recommend them to anyone looking to get into reptiles! Thanks for the awesome video, as always, Adam!

I absolutely love how the asian vine snakes look and would love to keep one but I've heard a lot of stuff about them eating lizards, and me being a more of a lizard person than a snake person, I don't really see myself doing that. Also I would say that western banded geckos are better than cave gecko because they are pretty cheap they stay smaller and live mostly on sand and stuff. They also don't need that much heat because they often live in high deserts and the like so it gets really cold and sometimes even snows. I keep mine at around 75 degrees f and it works really well. I have a baby one and it acts literally a leopard gecko. They are also a bit easier because they don't really like humidity because they are desert dwellers.

I'm planning on getting a Kenyan sand boa once my kingsnake gets his cage upgraded later this year. I'm normally not big on fossorials but I love creating little environments and a cute desert set up with death feigning beetles and airplants sounds soooo cute. It'd be a win win because I thought the idea of the beetles alone wouldn't be that fun but them cohabbing? Let's go. I'm leaning towards a rusty sand though with those pinkish reddish salty feeling rocks. It's a 20 long so I was just gunna get a male

Fun story about the reason I currently can't get the snake of my dreams, an acquaintance of mine found out one of her chinchillas was male the hard way. I seemed interested and was encouraged to take one/both when they were old enough. A friend of hers was trying to pressure me into it and I said I didn't know if I could spare the $200, and definitely couldn't spare $350 (mixed sex litter). The friend looked horrified "She's charging?!". Then I explained that while I could make some of the enrichment (hammocks, bridges, hides) and get some of the stuff at a discount by going to the local thrift store (grandma's knick knack bowls are $0.50 on a good day), the cheapest cage I could find was $150 (chinchillas need vertical space, cause squirrel - and she could wiggle her way out of it until she was 6mo. - 1 year, so there was a chunk of time where she lived in my dog's crate). Suddenly I was really responsible and had great foresight. - I don't understand people.

I just came back from a reptile convention. Got 2 leopard geckos (bringing my total to 6 now). Super hyper tangerine morphs. Sisters. One doesn't want to live nicely with her sister and my resident albino morph female tho. She's a bit more high strung and spicy, so she has her own enclosure for now. Hopefully, she will calm after a couple weeks. But they're from local breeders.

**Crested geckos are cheap IF you can get cheap used stuff, free stuff, or alerady have stuff lying around, you can use. If you're starting from scratch and have to get everything new like I did, it gets expensive to set up, especially if you go all in on bioactive, live plants and making a nice-looking 3D background for all three sides. Including the $250 I spent on the gecko, I think my 12x12x18 setup ended up being around $1200 (USD), and it's going to get more expensive because I have to upgrade the enclosure size pretty soon. However, yes, after everything is set up, overall care is cheap, even considering I buy the more expensive dubia roaches instead of crickets.

Exactly. There was a time in this hobby when _everyone_ built their enclosures because nobody _sold_ the kinds of enclosures that were needed. Now that reptile keeping is mainstream, people look at you funny if you say you build your enclosures. A trip to Home Depot and a can-do attitude can provide a whole lot in the way of reptile housing.

Haven’t seen yet but I’m pretty sure it’s safe to say that bearded dragons probably won’t be on that list xD Between the big enclosure and their need for UVB they can be pretty expensive, both the initial set up and in long term care

I recently priced out a gold dust day gecko setup. This would be my first herp as an adult, (I had turtles for like two minutes as a small child) so I’m starting from zero on the supplies front. To do a fully bioactive Tanner Serpa style vivarium with quality life support equipment and all the plants and mosses my heart desires plus the gecko and some starter food…. it’s going to cost at least $1800 in total. 😅 That’s going to seem like an absolute pittance someday when I graduate to much larger and fancier enclosure builds and I know that day geckos are pretty cheap to maintain, but still. I can’t help it, I didn’t want to go the “box of dirt” route for my first real reptile, especially since I’ve been learning so much about enclosure building and proper husbandry over the past few years. I wanted something pretty and showy, sue me. ETA: speaking of arboreal/semi arboreal colubrids… my absolute dream is to put a mangrove snake in one of those ginormous, fully kitted out Orinoco Grande enclosures from In Situ Ecosystems. I’m thinking paludarium, custom background, live plants, the works. It’ll cost thousands and thousands of dollars, but by the time I’m ready to undertake that project I’ll be making doctor money so I think I can make it happen. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Surprised to see you recommend such a small cage for the vine snakes. They can actually get pretty big, especially in captivity.

Are you okay? You look like you caught the sun a bit- or is it just my monitor? If you did I hope it’s not too sore! Thank you for the video- I’m pondering our first pet reptile in our family and with two young children it’s a big decision and commitment. Your videos make deciding easier for sure!

Hello I have a 12 year old leopard gecko that lost its mate several months ago. They both lived together since I had them and shortly after the one died, the other went into a depression and hasn’t been eating. He went from eating several bugs a day to not eating at all. I started to smash up meal worms and hand feed him with a dropper. Do you have any suggestions on this issue?

Two words. Viper. Gecko. witsy wee teeny teenums leo. Cutest lil sunuvvagun ya ever dun saw. Eyes like a couple of polished coins. Fat little keeled tail that they will slowly wag back and forth at you, their reflection, a rock... Not very expensive to get and if you breed the bugs yourself next to nothin' to keep. Little Kenyan roaches are also cheap and easy to keep and the perfect feeders for them. Sassy and adorable (the gecko not the roaches- they're cute as roaches go bc very teeny, but not at all sassy, they're just lil buggos). Not as personable as cresties but definitely handle-able and once actually in hand don't seem to care much. Though I also agree that cresties are the MVP. I've had mine since the day after she hatched and she's been gently handled most days of her life. She's the most chill creature who ever lived and I just kind of hang out with her on me for a bit nearly every evening. She's spoiled, cute, funny, has tiny eyelashes, and can't catch a bug to save her life, what's not to like?

To be fair you CAN spend a ton on an enclosure for a crested gecko. I went full bioactive, big tank, lots of enrichment and all that. BUT you can definitely go with something more affordable. Oh and also I don't know how the hell people can get bored with these guys. I love mine. I never get tired of checking up on him, cleaning his enclosure, misting him, feeding him. Hell even feeding his food that'll I'll feed to him later.

It shouldn't. The ones at Petco are most likely very poorly bred and kept. The one you got from the expo is far more likely to live a long, healthy life.
