  • - Hey, good morning everybody

  • and welcome to the vlog.

  • You know it's gonna be a great vlog

  • when I have a rabbit in my hand,

  • I've got Lucy ready to go.

  • Yeah, that's right, we're gonna feed some giant snakes,

  • and we're gonna feed the rest of the Reptarium as well.

  • She is ready to go.

  • Woo! (screams)

  • That's an adrenaline rush.

  • That's the way I like to start my day for sure.

  • I'll tell you what, you never wanna get a food bite

  • when it comes to an animal like that.

  • I'll talk more about that in the vlog.

  • But, again, we're gonna feed our giant snakes.

  • We have rabbits, we have rats, we have mice.

  • We're gonna be feeding the entire Reptarium,

  • it's gonna be a great day.

  • For those of you that like feeding snakes,

  • I think you're gonna like this vlog.

  • Next stop is Ivy, the green anaconda.

  • She is way up top again.

  • Not in exactly the best position,

  • meaning that I have just go right in the cage

  • and hopefully she is gonna be ready to take it.

  • Come on, girl!

  • Oh my gosh, what the heck.

  • Seriously, this-

  • Oh my gosh.

  • Ow!

  • Okay.

  • Here you go, Ivy, here you go, girl.

  • Oh, (laughs)

  • I kinda figured that was gonna be the case,

  • that she was gonna jump out at, like that.

  • She was just so tucked back there,

  • if I went in with my arm, I knew I was within

  • striking range and there was nothing I could do.

  • So I gave her the little butterscotch,

  • and she took that rabbit like a champ.

  • Next up is my girl Perdita.

  • Hey, girl!

  • And she is definitely lookin' like she is ready to go.

  • Here you go, baby, want a little food?

  • Aw, there you go sweetheart.

  • She is such a gentle soul, I tell you what.

  • And really there's a couple types of bites, right?

  • I've talked about this in the past,

  • and the fact that there's, like the defensive bite

  • that is, "Get away, I'm afraid,"

  • They're just trying to get away,

  • and then there's the food bite.

  • The food bite is always a mistake

  • on the keeper's part, right?

  • It means that somehow I got in the way of them,

  • thinking that my hand was food.

  • Maybe they missed the rabbit, missed the rat, whatever,

  • continued to lunge and grab at you.

  • That is definitely the worst bite because

  • they're grabbing, they're constricting,

  • they're not letting go.

  • Whereas, defensive bites are typically bam! Bam!

  • And they're done, right?

  • Now, again, it's always our fault when we get food bit.

  • And even then, you know, it's not the end of the world.

  • I've been food bitten tons of times,

  • even by really large snakes, and I've

  • never even been to the hospital.

  • That's not to mean you can't be,

  • but I'll talk more about that as we get feeding.

  • (techno music playing)

  • Hey guys, check this out this is actually really cool.

  • Nova and Lilith, of course, down here,

  • she's always kinda up in the branch way up top,

  • and he's been kinda courting for the last little bit.

  • As I walked by I saw him bobbing his head,

  • and she's down here which is really good,

  • because, remember, she's laid two clutches,

  • but it didn't look like she was gonna lay a third.

  • She's starting to swell up a little bit,

  • I think she might actually lay a third clutch.

  • And the fact that they're down together,

  • he's bobbing, he's courting, probably gonna mate,

  • that is pretty exciting.

  • We've got seven more eggs that still look good,

  • that should be hatching in the next, I don't know,

  • week and a half, two weeks tops?

  • The four little babies are doing amazing,

  • getting another clutch?

  • That would be pretty awesome.

  • Next up is the Dominican Red Mountain boa.

  • Mr.Nubbins here, he is such a cutie.

  • Come on, little buddy!

  • There you go.

  • Aw, that is so awesome.

  • I love these guys, they're so cool.

  • They're just a weird kind of boa, you know,

  • they're long, they're slender, they're cool.

  • I'm happy that we have one here at the Reptarium,

  • and he is a beauty.

  • It's great that Nightfury has graduated-whoo!

  • It's great that Nightfury has graduated up to rabbits.

  • He's really putting on some size now.

  • Here you go, bud.

  • Oh, wow he's being weird tod-

  • Oh!-There he goes, he grabbed it now.

  • He was being a little weird, it's like,

  • "I don't know if I want that."

  • Again, sometimmes when you switch them from

  • rats to rabbits, they can be a little apprehensive.

  • So, uh, the more I feed them rabbits,

  • the more he's gonna be going with it, so,

  • uh, definitely a nice meal for my buddy Nightfury.

  • Daisy is definitely ready to eat,

  • there is no doubt about it.

  • And, again, what I always say is that

  • the way you really avoid injury when

  • you're getting bit is to not pull away, right?

  • That's why I've never been to the hospital

  • from a bite, because whether it's a food bite

  • or it's a defensive bite, I always go with the bite,

  • and that's kinda how you stay away from rippage, right?

  • Because that's how you can really get hurt.

  • But let's go ahead and get Daisy a little meal here,

  • because she is ready to go.

  • Here you go, baby!

  • Here you go.

  • Oh my gosh.

  • Whoa!

  • That was aggressive for her, she normally doesn't

  • take food that aggressively, so, it's good to see her

  • turned on like that, but hoo doggy, girl!

  • She was really ready to eat today.

  • Next up is Casper!

  • I can't see Casper's head,

  • so I have no idea where he actually is.

  • I have to be a little careful with this one.

  • Casper! Where you at, buddy?

  • Where you at, bud?

  • Where you at?

  • I don't know where he's at.

  • Where you at?

  • Come on, Casper.

  • Here he is.

  • Whoa!

  • Come on, Casper.

  • Come on, buddy.

  • Huh.

  • This is unusual, Casper doesn't ever refuse food.

  • Come on, buddy, wanna try?

  • Tell you what, I don't think Casper's gonna eat.

  • Look it, he's just cruisin' up

  • like crazy trying to get away,

  • so, I'll go ahead, skip Casper.

  • That's kinda how it goes.

  • Over here at the Reptarium, I'll be honest with you,

  • snakes almost always eat, but every now and then

  • they go off, so what can you do?

  • I'll just leave Casper alone for the night,

  • and let him cruise around by himself.

  • Sorry, bud!

  • (techno music playing)

  • And I realize that not pulling away from

  • something kinda striking at you

  • is totally counterintuitive, right?

  • Because our reaction is to jerk away as soon as

  • we're gonna get bit, like we can avoid the bite.

  • But trust me, it's way better not to.

  • And speaking about an animal I don't wanna get bit by

  • Butterscotch is one of 'em.

  • So let's go see if she wants to eat.

  • She's usually very acrobatic.

  • Uh-oh, uh-oh.

  • here she comes.

  • Here she comes.

  • Oh my gosh, come on, girl.

  • Whoa!

  • Here you go.

  • Oh! She is right there.

  • I love it how she just grabs it out of the air.

  • And that's kinda-it reminds you of

  • what they might do in the wild, right?

  • Something's gonna be coming by and they're just gonna

  • lunge at and then grab it like that.

  • What an awesome animal, I tell you.

  • But as long as I toss it, I'm not in the way,

  • she can't strike at me as long as I'm tossing the rabbit.

  • But, I'll go ahead and get her back up in here,

  • and let her eat in peace.

  • Sunrise definitely is turned on since

  • we moved her into this really large enclosure.

  • She's even more interested in food these days.

  • So, I'm gonna go ahead and see if I can't just

  • open this up without getting bitten.

  • Whoo!

  • Here you go girl, here you go, baby.

  • Ah, there it is!

  • She's always a really good feeder,

  • there's no doubt about it.

  • And, again, now that she's got

  • a little bit more space in here,

  • look at all this space she has in this enclosure right here.

  • It's really kinda turned her on to really feeding more.

  • I think she's gonna grow a lot over the next six months.

  • Rabbit number two for my girl Lucy!

  • Hey girl!

  • Here you go, sweetheart, want another rabbit?

  • I'm gonna have to in here and get her!

  • Ah, there you go, sweetheart.

  • (laughs)

  • And the thing is, the second time around,

  • she's always much less aggressive, right?

  • She's just kinda more like lunge, barely take it away.

  • That's why my foot is literally

  • inches away from her face and I'm not worried about it.

  • After that first rabbit, it's kinda like,

  • "Okay, I've been fed, now I can take it."

  • And these are kinda small rabbits,

  • so, I'm probably gonna give Lucy three rabbits today.

  • Let's go ahead and see if Pickles wants to eat.

  • Definitely-whoa!

  • Yep, I'd say she wants to eat!

  • Here you go, girl, here you go.

  • Oh, gosh.

  • I've never seen her so energetic in my life!

  • Hey, by the way, guys, while I'm doing this feeding,

  • do me a favor, go down in the comments

  • tell me, do you keep reptiles?

  • If you do keep reptiles, tell me which kind you keep,

  • and also, if you keep snakes,

  • what's your favorite feeding story?

  • Or, for that matter, what's your favorite bite story?

  • Right? Because we have been talking about bites.

  • But Pickles, here, I wouldn't wanna

  • get bit by her, that's for sure.

  • She was ready to eat today.

  • (techno music playing)

  • My gosh, take a look.

  • Remember earlier, I said Nova was courting?

  • Well, he's actually trying to breed right now.

  • He's actually right on top of Lilith.

  • How absolutely amazing.

  • Since I've had Ivy here, she's been feeding like crazy,

  • but this is the first time I'm gonna

  • offer her a second rabbit.

  • I gotta be honest with you guys, these have a crazy strike.

  • They're not like a normal python or something like that.

  • This is an animal I don't wanna get bit by,

  • because I've been bit by bigger anacondas,

  • it's really a tough bite.

  • So I'm gonna do the best I can do,

  • to get her to eat without me getting bit.

  • There it goes.

  • Again, you can just see the strength of that strike.

  • She grabs it, she coils it, she rips it.

  • That would be an animal that would be hard to follow

  • through if she grabbed me.

  • It'd be hard for me to even get in there,

  • 'cause it's such a violent strike

  • compared to most snakes, but absolutely incredible

  • And hey!

  • Ivy just ate her second rabbit,

  • which means she's just gonna get bigger and bigger.

  • Gonna go ahead and feed Sunrise another rabbit real quick.

  • Here you go, baby.

  • There you go, girl, there you go.

  • Again, these rabbits are pretty small, so I think it's okay.

  • And by the way, I have a kinda theory that

  • maybe rabbit scent is what turned Casper off.

  • So, I'm gonna try to offer him a rat,

  • and see if he'll take it.

  • Again, let's see if this'll work,

  • I have no idea if it will, but

  • oftentimes, scent is a big part of snakes.

  • So, he may not have liked the rabbit scent,

  • but he may have no problem with the rat scent.

  • Careful, bud, be careful.

  • See?

  • Right off the rip.

  • I guess I know a little bit about snakes, right?

  • (laughs) Casper just wanted a rat instead of a rabbit.

  • Again, sometimes switching from

  • rats to rabbits, that happens.

  • It just takes a little while for them to get on it.

  • He's eaten a couple rabbits, recently,

  • but now he just wants some rats, which is fine.

  • So I'll give him a whole bunch of rats today.

  • I'm gonna try to feed Jeffery for the first time.

  • And just like what happened with Casper,

  • you need to get to know your animals

  • and how they feed, and what's going on.

  • I'm gonna be honest with you, this is the

  • first time I've ever fed Jeffery.

  • So I have no idea what he's gonna be like.

  • So I'm gonna go ahead and just see if I can figure him out.

  • Come on.

  • Here he comes!

  • Don't have a lot of space-

  • Whoa!

  • Yeah!

  • So I can see he's a pretty energetic feeder,

  • so next time I've gotta know-

  • the thing is is that I don't have a lot of space

  • when I'm going in here, and I don't have

  • a lot of vertical space.

  • So when they're striking forward, they could very well

  • miss that rat and get my hand.

  • So I definitely took some notes about

  • feeding Jeffery next time, but I'm glad to see

  • that his first meal at the Reptarium was success.

  • My girl Honey, the piebald ball python is up next.

  • Here you go, sweetheart, here you go.

  • There it is.

  • And when a snake grabs a rodent, they actually have

  • what's called recurved teeth,

  • so the teeth kinda go backwards, right?

  • 'Cause you gotta remember, let's say a

  • fuzzy little rodent is running down the way,

  • It's gotta be able to hold it and grab onto it.

  • Those teeth have to not only get through the fur,

  • but when they do actually grab, that animal can't get away.

  • It's almost like a fishing hook, right?

  • When a fishing hook gets a fish,

  • the fish can't back away from it.

  • The same thing goes when it comes to reptiles.

  • The good news is, when you do get bit by a reptile,

  • they have an anticoagulant that helps kinda digest foods.

  • So a lot of times you bleed a lot,

  • that's why you really rarely get an infection

  • when you get a snake bite.

  • As a matter of fact, with me, I've been bit

  • a hundred thousand times, and I have never had

  • an infection even once from a snake bite.

  • (techno music playing)

  • The white lipped python is always a big striker, for sure.

  • Again, just knowing your animals and knowing

  • where you can be is important.

  • Definitely-whoops!

  • See that?

  • That one strikes a lot.

  • (laughs) He's very energetic.

  • I love it, 'cause when they strike they coil around

  • really a ton of times, and they definitely squeeze it

  • like it's alive.

  • Those guys are unbelievably energetic,

  • and super beautiful.

  • Let's go ahead and see if Verde wants to eat.

  • She's been a little weird the last couple weeks,

  • so let's see if she'll take a rat for me.

  • Come on, girl.

  • Do you wanna eat?

  • Here you go, girl.

  • I don't know what she's got going on over here.

  • Come on, girl.

  • Looks like she wants it, but she's just

  • not ready to take it yet.

  • But she might just crawl up and open her mouth.

  • No, maybe not.

  • I think what I'll do is, I'll just

  • leave it in there for the night.

  • She really looked interested,

  • but she didn't wanna strike it.

  • She's such a calm girl, so I'll just leave it in there,

  • and we'll check in the morning and

  • hopefully she'll have eaten it.

  • I'm gonna go ahead and give Daisy her second rabbit.

  • She is definitely fired up today,

  • there's no doubt about that.

  • I haven't seen her this, kinda,

  • excited about food in a long, long time.

  • There she is, caught it for sure.

  • I tell you what, that is absolutely incredible.

  • I love it when she's fired up like this.

  • 'Cause in the wintertime she slows her food down a lot,

  • unlike Lucy that eats all the time.

  • But it's so cool to see her.

  • And just so you guys know, the entire process of feeding

  • can sometimes take, you know,

  • for or five hours at the zoo here.

  • Of course, BHV is completely different, but

  • just so you guys know how much time is actually takes me.

  • All right ready for Butterscotch number two!

  • Let's hope she's all right.

  • She's coming quick, she's coming quick!

  • It's okay, girl, it's okay.

  • Here you go, girl, come on.

  • Whoa!

  • Come on, girl, come on.

  • Here she goes.

  • Whoa!

  • Sheesh.

  • (laughs) Again, missed the rabbit, that-

  • uh-oh, oh.

  • That's what I was talking about

  • with the keeper mistake, right?

  • I actually had her miss the rabbit,

  • and when she missed the rabbit she came lunging towards me.

  • If she would've been a little closer

  • she could've got my arm.

  • Trust me, it's happened to me

  • more times than I ever want to admit.

  • But in this case, it all worked out.

  • Number three for Lucy!

  • Come on, girl!

  • Come on, sweetheart.

  • Oh, this is-whoa!

  • She's coming fast!

  • I had to step away for a second there.

  • Come on, baby, come on.

  • Get over here.

  • Get over here!

  • Whoa!

  • (laughs)

  • Not really sure what that was about.

  • She spooked me for a second, she comes flying up,

  • and then she just kinda opened her mouth

  • and I put it in there.

  • So, oh my god, what a great, great snake.

  • And the very last snake that we're gonna feed

  • here at the Reptarium is this black headed python here.

  • Unbelievably beautiful snake.

  • Come on, little buddy.

  • You're always happy to eat.

  • Come on.

  • Oh! There he goes.

  • Definitely a monster, there's no doubt about that.

  • I love that snake.

  • Definitely a good way to end the feeding.

  • I tell you what, that was really amazing,

  • I mean, Ivy ate two rabbits, Lucy ate a few rabbits,

  • everything ate really good,

  • even Casper ended up taking a rat.

  • There's something about when all of your animals eat,

  • it's like this satisfaction, it's almost

  • like this is a job well done

  • in that you can kinda rest a little easy.

  • I love feeding snakes, and I love it

  • when my snakes are healthy and happy.

  • And right now they all have big bellies of food,

  • there's no doubt about that.

  • And speaking of bellies of food,

  • it might be about that time for me

  • to go get a belly of food.

  • Guys, there is no doubt that when

  • you're feeding huge animals, it can be exhilarating.

  • It's a little bit scary, but I tell you what,

  • I've been doing it my whole life, and I love it to death!

  • They're so absolutely amazing.

  • If you enjoy feeding giant snakes,

  • here's another video I think that you'll definitely like,

  • here's a playlist of me feeding all kinds of stuff,

  • over here you can hit that subscribe button,

  • while you at it, can you turn those post notifications on?

  • Have an absolutely wonderful day, and be kind to someone.

  • I promise I'll see you guys tomorrow.

- Hey, good morning everybody
