I started my channel gaming but while on holidays recently I vlogged and enjoyed it. I love doing both. Should I make a second channel for vlogged or keep both together.
Thanks in advance

YouTube Can I do vlogged and gaming videos?

Honestly its up to you, some separate others keep it together. Personally I keep all mine together on the one channel, its easier to manage. I just have a different thumbnail border colour for it (mines green for vlogs, red/blue for gaming videos).
Keep them together...
There is no absolute point making another channel for vlogs, there are many channels of gaming that do so, only time I would make a new channel was if I wanted to upload content like Music or trailers of some sort.

Keep them together. 2 video types for one channel isn't bad. Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, and other big gamers also vlog on their channels. Just make a playlist for vlogs specifically. 
I agree with the above posters too. If people don't like a specific genre of video you make, then let them leave. You will simply replace those who leave with new people who are more interested in your videos. But decide now what videos you want to make, rather than changing this down the line. The bigger you are, the more difficult it is to phase new content genres into your channel.
Hope this helps.

I'm a big fan of separation, as a smaller channel it doesn't matter, like I do gaming as well, but if I wanted to make gaming videos on a specific genre alone I'd create a 2nd channel for it like having a sports channel(madden, MLB, NBA etc) it's just me tho, do whatever you want to do
Depends on how your audience reacts. By doing 2 things on your channel you can gain mixed audience as some will like your vloggs and others the gaming. It can even happen that somr will like both! Long story short. Give it a go and see what will happen
Thanks for all the help. I was planning on doing daily blogs as well as gaming videos. Would that make any difference to what you said?
I feel the same way I just did my first vlog but I dont want my channel to become just vlogs
Captain Sparklez does both on one channel, so why can't you?
My channel's schedule currently consists of vlogs and tech videos, actually! I manage to keep the two somewhat separated by sorting them into playlists, and then making the playlists very prominent on my channel's main page. Not see a whole lot of downsides with this setup yet, been keeping at it for half a year so far.

I keep all my videos together, gaming and vlogs. If I do get a bigger channel i may create a vlogging channel if i need it.
I would recommend keeping them together for now. When you get hundreds of thousands of subs and views, then you could separate them.
Keep them together to the extent that you're not splitting your fanbase. If you can, integrate the two together. Instead of having some vlog fans and some gaming fans, find a way to make everyone that watches you a fan of you specifically.
I have a friend that does gaming and vlogging on the same channel, and it has worked out well for him. But you could create another channel just for vlogging too.
Well, until your channel has a certain draw for a certain content. That's when you should split off, but you still continue working until you find what works best for your and also finding what else you enjoy.
