    Hi, i just saw two eggs in my terrarium and its my first time i will hatch this amazing animals, my question is can i give them a fly as i give to the adults?

    • @daffysreptiles
      @daffysreptiles  Před 3 měsíci

      Congratulations on getting eggs! Once they start they don’t stop so be ready for lots of babies hahaha!
      You can definitely give the babies flies like the adults but they likely won’t take them for the first week or two cause they’re pretty small! And when you do start offering them definitely start with melanogasters not the hydei!

      Thanks! This vivarium was designed by a friend - Newledge Reptiles! I believe the plant in the middle is a ficus benjamina, there is also a parlour plant in the back and a dracena marginata!

    Hello i was looking to adopt them. They will live in my bathroom in a lil larger than 5 gallon sized space in width. Hight may change. We are first tine gecko keepers, however i am pretty good with animls and plants. I have a few questions though. How many can live together? 2 or more females perhaps? How long do they live? Can i keep then with grown isopods? Should i adopt a neon day gecko instead? If u could answer these or give any tips i would be very thankful.🦎

    • @daffysreptiles
      @daffysreptiles  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Hello! If you have a large enough space you can keep a few together, I’ve only ever kept the pair together and the babies but I’ve heard of other keepers keeping them in groups, but you would definitely need more space than a 5 gallon for a group!
      I believe their life expectancy is somewhere around 10 years but I’m not sure. And yes they can live with isopods no problem.
      What gecko you adopt is up to you but I would not recommend putting a neon day gecko in something as small as a 5 gallon either!

    Hey Mate,
    how do i keep my Hatchlings escaping from an Exo Terra?
    I wanna keep them with the Adults if its possible..
    Today i found 1 Hatchling crawling around my Floor again..

    • @daffysreptiles
      @daffysreptiles  Před rokem

      Hey! It’s definitely possible I know a few people doing it. First thing would be to make sure the 6 holes in the back of the Exo Terra are sealed. A lot of people will tape a small piece of cardboard on top of it aswell. The other place they could get out is at the hinges, I’m not sure how well this works but one tactic I’ve heard is sticking damp paper towels in the hinges this still allows the doors to open and close without allowing the babies to get out.
      It can be done but it definitely isn’t easy which is why I prefer to raise them in other enclosures!
      Good luck and let me know if you have any other questions!

    • @colekinser407
      @colekinser407 Před rokem +1

      I keep mine in exo terra by stuffing some moss into the holes along the back and any spaces in background. I haven’t had any issues with the front doors/vent holes.

    • @daffysreptiles
      @daffysreptiles  Před 10 měsíci +1

      You probably could but I would recommend something bigger to give them a chance to move away from each other! I used a 18x18x18 Exo Terra.
      You could leave the eggs in the tank and the babies will hatch however the babies are small enough to fit through very tiny gaps so I prefer to take the eggs out!
