Please do an updated meet all our snakes series! It'd be so interesting to see who you still all have vs your newer snakes
yesssss i agree
Bumping this

And see two head garter
@@TitlingTree4983 The two headed garter snake they once had didn't live very long unfortunately.
You guys have so many clutches this year, we’re going to be having baby videos til Christmas!
I’m not gonna lie I’d like that.
I hope so, I love baby hatching videos lol
The snakes felt bad for last year
“All the Babies”
I hope so
The “cut this part Michael”
“no I don’t think I will”
part was funny af and caught me off guard 🤣🤣👏🏻
ikr🤣🤣🤣
"We held back Scrrr...."
"Wrinkles!"
I love when you guys almost forget his family friendly name 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣. I was thinking that when Emily said she could think of nothing PG to describe the scaleless's headstamp!
I'm ded if the non-PG name is what I think it is...

I forgot his real name
Emily: immeadiatly goes for the scaleless
Me: mesmerized by the striking black and white baby
Same. They are stunning!
Totally agree 👍
Oh my gosh, that black and white one!!! 🥰🥰🥰 I want one!
I am the same, I am always drawn to the black and white/greyscale colourations whereas most are all about the bright colours and crazy patterns.
Looks like a cow 🥰
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Buck is such a good looking snake. I hope I can get a hold of one of his babies before he retires because I’ve never seen such a handsome snake before.
i agree
yeah, me too. He's so pretty!
Me too! I thought I was the only one because I don't see as much love for him.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
And he is so sweet!
Hearing you and Ed saying that you had retired a male and got him a none breeding home as a pet made me have so much more RESPECT for ya!(I mean I already respect everything yall do but that hit home today) I guarantee there are ppl out there breeding snakes that produce genetic defects and they will continue to breed do to the amount they have put into that reptile even if breeding them is causing issues with their scalie babies. Yall are greet and I look forward to actually visiting!
there are good and bad breeders for every creature it seems.
I felt this as they retired the red bullsnake female. The baby's were all fine, she was "only" serverly eggbound. Could have been a fluke, but they wouldn't take the risk of the mothers health for some future baby's, so she was also adopted into a pet only home. This is the kind of responsibility I love to see in any kind of breeders!
I love how these babies hatched before the giant hogs, yet we're getting them afterwards! So funny!
Ye😊 😂
Ik
Yep
'we held back scr.... wrinkles'. Keeping it PG has never been so funny 😂
I agree with everyone here, I’d love a recap at the end of all the eggs that hatched this year and the snakes you kept. Also any new snakes you acquired that you may not have shown off yet
The transparent white one might be orange now but he's still super light and vibrant, definitely worth holding on to
I love the baby scaleless noodle it's refreshing to see calm babies for a change
I feel like we’re going to have hatching videos until next breeding season and I’m not complaining
YES PLEEEEESE do an updated “Meet Our Pets” after all the babies go to their new homes, so we can see all the holdbacks 🥰🥰🥰
The fact that they keep accidentally getting closer and closer to saying Wrinkles’ real name is funny to watch
I forgot his real name what was it again

Hi love your vids the snakes a so cute
R.I.P to the amel
For some reason buck has always been my favorite. I love his reds and darker colors and his scalelessness looks cool too. I would love to have a buck baby but I currently live in a snake free apartment.
Can you do an all hold backs from this breeding season? I wanna see who you kept
Don't worry, they do one every year, this one will most likely be closer to december with all the clutches this year though
omg Wrinkles has gotten so big! I remember his hatching video, and now he's almost big enough to start breeding himself.
Yay! Scaleless babies. This scaleless baby actually came out pretty quickly they usually take longer. Automatically tries to escape and still watching the new incubator. Welp, at least we saw a baby scaleless and it wasn't the last one out.. or I don't think it was. It would have been nice to see the baby amel but oh well. The rock kinda looks like a seashell.
Due to youtubes rules and people flagging videos, they don't usually show babies that pass before/during hatching
I am hoping that these varieties are healthy and don't turn out to have other health issues, like pug dogs and Arabian horses. Breeding for desired traits can be done better! Best wishes to you.
Announcement: I'm not a snake owner but have a question 🤔 Do scaleless snakes have a harder or more difficult time regulating there temps than a normal scaled snake❓
Nope since all snakes are cold-blooded then it will not matter since they draw their heat or cool down from other outside temperatures
They need external temps to regulate regardless.
I personally don't own any scaleless snakes, but from what I've heard, there is almost no difference between scaled snakes and scaleless snakes other than the obvious scales. If I remember correctly, there has actually been full grown adult scaleless snakes found in the wild. If they were able to survive until adulthood being a wild snake, I feel like they are pretty well off in captivity.
They still need heat due to being cold blooded, but different species are better/worse for scaleless. Scaleless corns are fine, but scaleless ball pythons have issues.
It depends on the species. Ball python scaleless don't develop scales on the belly, so ethically it's wrong to breed them because there are no protections on the belly leading to increased potential for health issues. Ball pythons also if I remember right need a bit extra care and don't live as long when scaleless. From what I've seen with these guys and what Emily and Ed has shared the care for scaleless rat corns are the same and they don't need any extra care. It depends all on species as each one is different.
What an adorable spicy nekkie noodle! I don't think Emily's baby sniffing is weird. Most parents of human babies sniff their babies heads and humans make all sorts of positive associations with smells.
I always find it so funny how human parental instincts get triggered by completely non-human animals. It really is crazy how humans do something so counter-intuitive as caring for and raising an entirely different species haha
@@catpoke9557 We've observed the other great apes do the same thing. Both male and female gorillas have protected and nurtured human children that have fallen into zoo enclosures and been injured. Coco raised a kitten. Even some of the lesser monkeys will adopt babies when the mother dies or raise babies of another species. It's kinda just a primate thing. Yes, there's always exceptions.
I type this with difficulty because I have a purry furry belly up on my lap and belly kneading his feet in the air as I rub his chest. Is he my baby? One of em.
Yes human babies have that "new baby" smell so I assume most animals do. I have never smelled a new born snake but it would be pretty cool
@@Just1Nora Dublin zoo has two different species of monkeys in an enclosure, the female of the smaller monkey species would hand over her baby to the tamarin to babysit
@@PKBitchGirl While it may not be a different species, we have a herd of deer that bed down in our yard frequently and the deer have a younger unmated female that becomes the "babysitter" while the mothers get some time to themselves.
Also, the fact that the deer sleep in our yard, right next to our trees and house, because they know that my dad and I won't harm them is pretty impressive as well. Before they started sleeping in our yard the moms would just occasionally leave their newborn fawns right next to our front door because they knew that it was safe. Dad still had cataracts, though even people with good vision might not see a hidden fawn, and tripped over one in the leaves once and was so distraught when it ran off. The mother did find it that evening, so there was a happy ending.
love your videos. sad the one didnt make it.
the scaleless head stamp looks like a hammer to me, while the others gave me anchor vibes.
They're all so adorable!
And the headstamp of one of the scaled ones looks like an IUD ^^
i was thinking the Aries symbol ♈, but i can see that too
i waas thinking that as well lol
Glad I’m not the only one who thought that
I’m in love with the scaleless baby! I would name her “Buggy” cuz of her eyes 🥰 and the one with the dots on its nose has a mustache!
That's an adorable name! I'm stealing it if ever I get my own scaleless baby lol
Oh or how about Peepers? As in "jeepers creepers, where'd you get those peepers?" (old song)
@@lorrainemunoa791 oh I love that!
@@dannikris3696 yeah me too, that scales bubba reminds me of the leopard geckos ❤❤
These rat snakes, scaleless and scaled, are beautiful!
You rock Michael! 😂😂❤❤
I love you videos. I would love to see a video at the end of your hatching season which goes through some statistics like how many pairings you made, how many clutches, how many eggs, how many hatched, how many babies survived, males and females, retained or sold ect.
I think it would be really interesting.
You and Ed have got me liking snakes which I never thought I would say.
I'm cracking up at the Captain America cameo XD What a stunning scaleless!
I just love baby snakes with big derpy eyes!
They are just the cutest!
I will never get enough of snake baby videos!🥰🐍
I been watching your old videos because I want to get caught up with all of them I can't stop watching them
LOVE WHEN YOU HOLD THE BIG SNAKES
11:09 That water dish is adorable, props to whoever made it!!
The snake I had the most pleasure ever working with was a lovely ratcorn named Violet. Beautiful temperment, great eater, super friendly and curious and had no qualms being handled. Hope the future owners enjoy these noodle babies!
I forgot how much I love ratcorns. Didn’t see and egg video for this year, I hope you still breed them! The marks and colors are so pretty and I love their big eyes and the scaleless ones are so cool!
My daughters and I love watching your hatching videos! The big eyed scaleless was the cutest!!!!
Ooooh, I absolutely love the fan-made water dish! I know a bit about ceramics, so thinking about how that one was made, and how I could make one like it, is really inspiring for me! I love the faint white dots on the inside, and the lil feet!!! That's the kind of fan-gift I would send, if I ever DO send something to Snake Discovery - something practical that can be used for years!
I think you should give it a go! I bought a gorgeous hand thrown ceramic bowl with a stunning arty sort of (foodsafe) blue glaze as a water dish for my snakes, and it makes me smile every time I wash it and admire it all over again. Something so useful AND beautiful!
Ooh! So excited to see scaless babies! And I'll go along with the others wanting updates on your snakes. Like Sunny Side Up! I would LOVE to see how she is doing!
Hi. I am watching your vlog of your tortoise, Sharon, and it actually looked like she is a male. On the Google image you showed us, the male has a butterfly under the shell which yours has. Would like to know if you saw that. Keep up the good work.
“We held back Scr, umm Wrinkles, yeah we’ll call him wrinkles here” 😂😂😂
I'm on an ad ever since you started UA-cam channels I've always loved your channels like I'll never stop watching
Im majoring in herpetology cause I want to be a reptile caretaker. Its fun to learn about snakes.
Grats 🎉
I can't believe I've been watching this channel for 3 years considering I had literally no interest in snakes before I came across a random recommended video. Now I can't wait for egg hatching videos and know so much about snakes and reptiles.
I love all the babies!! I’m sad that Amel didn’t make it, though. 😢 He/she would’ve been beautiful. Thanks for the baby fix! 😊
What a gorgeous scaleless baby! I looove those very big eyes on her cute little face💗 Also I love to seeing the hatching videos! Babies always bring a smile on my face😊
Aww! I’m so happy that the rat snakes are here!! ❤
an adorable name for that female baby scaleless would be "strawberry lace" as she is kind of pink!
Emily, being a long time member I wonder a lot of what happened to that deformed snapping turtle you got when you got mystery eggs like idk a year ago.
The egg hatching videos are my favorite ones so this is a wonderful year!
So adorable! I clicked the moment I saw the video come up
I just absolutely love the snake commentary! 🤣
do you guys know if wall geckos also have the baby smell that you guys always describe?
cause ive been finding a lot of baby geckos in my attic (i think they hatch in between my roof) and a smell like cockroach has been lurking around
i dont personally have experience, but i suspect that the baby smell is from the egg and/or their first shed, so that could be true! but also, wall geckos eat cockroaches so it could be that they settle down where theres a good supply of them. at least you dont have to worry about them since they would all be getting monched lol!!
I just love how the scaled ones when they move a certain way look like they have crochet lace on their backs
I hope you keep the little scaleless girl and then you can breed a whole line of scaleless babies!
I ended up getting one of the normal ratcorns from this video and it's so cool to be able to point her out!!!!
I love hatching season with snake discovery 🥰
I doubto no one at sd would see this comment but the algorithms recently popped up your less plastic video, and I would love to see a video on how you recycle things or reduce waste/plastic at the facility!!
Are you going to keep the girl scaleless baby? Considering how great of a scaleless she was and the fact that you only have boy scaleless snakes?
I think they mentioned at some point that they are not sure if they want to continue breeding scale less babies, so I think it depends on that!
Wrinkly mr. B. Plug. Adorable. I hope you'll keep him.
pleasssse do a 'baby results' video this year or at least react to your plans video! I've lost track of everything that's hatched there's been SO MANY!! ❤️❤️
The headstamp always make me think of the “Drunk octopus wants to fight” door coat hanger XD
HAHAHAHAHA who else knew exactly what they named the rat snake they held back when Emily said “Scr-“? You guys have such a wild sense of humor 😂
I love you guys so much... You're enthusiasm about baby snakes never gets old!! You two are adorable!!!
Congrats on the scaleless and 2 other healthy scaled rat corns!!
Im going up there in a week. Would it be to weird to ask to smell a baby snake, cause im so curious now. 😆
I don’t think it would be weird 😂
Baby badasses! I love them!
Do any of you know if the black & white will keep those colors?
If scaleless was common would it be considered negative like a wobble on spider or champagne ball pythons? 🤔 I feel like it would like bad condition. Just curious on your thoughts.
The wobble is a neurological condition. Being scaleless (or albino) is not a negative trait in captivity. It would only cause a disadvantage in the wild as they would be more easily spotted and eaten.
@@Black-Swan-007 I'm pretty sure they had to take a scaleless snake out of a naturalistic enclosure since the snake was tearing their skin up. That would certainly be an issue in the wild.
@@kristajones7202 Right, that's what I said. I said IN CAPTIVITY it's a non issue. In the wild it makes them vulnerable and more likely to be eaten.
@@Black-Swan-007 And injured, even in captivity if the habitat isn't set up safely for a scaleless snake. It's not just predation they would have to worry about.
@@kristajones7202 And what did Snake Discovery do when they learned that their scaleless snakes were being injured? _They moved them._ Something exclusive to captive keeping.
The original question was if scaleless was negative like wobble. The answer is no. Wobble is a neurological disorder, scaleless is not.
Buck is still my favourite of all your snakes. He's just so unique and gorgeous
Such pretty colors!

This is a great video like always! Keep it up!
you can just tell how much they love what they do! I love this channel
So cute! I love snake haching videos, there so cute!!
Yayyy! Love scaless.
I’m watching from Spain and I love you guysss
You inspired me to build my own little collection ❤️❤️
The sNaked one has a hammer on her head, either ball ping or sledge. WOW, it's been a while since we've seen "Wrinkles" on the channel they're so big now!
I am so proud of you guys ❤️
What a cute little scaleless!! If she looks anything like her dad, she's going to be STUNNING!! 💖
Keep the girl 👧 she so cute, and I don't think I've seen a girl scaleless on the channel x
i love scaleless babies their eyes look so derpy with out scales around them i love it
I ask this every time there’s a new video but,… when will the tri-colors hatch and are they healthy?
Buck is a beautiful snake. I love his colors.
You make me want to get a snake again!
I LOVE the chain like pattern on the two scaled ones.
You could say the scale less ratcorn's head stamp looks like Thor's hammer, and all the babies are adorable (as always).
Buck is the smiliest little dude!!!!!
I don't think a lot of us will know what Roach vomit smells like!?🤔
That Dad, Buck?, is STUNNING ❤❤❤
yay more baby sneks
Are Rat-Corns a good starter snake? I love the scaleless type and preferably “derpy” eyes ❤
Can someone explain why intentionally breeding a scaleless mutation is desirable?
People think it looks cool, that's why they do it.
Same reason people breed merle dogs or sphinxes. They like the look. I don't think being scaleless hurts the snake though I've seen people in the comment section say that it depends on the type of snake.
@@softsounds8453 it makes the snake much more susceptible to some medical conditions. Therefore, intentionally breeding them to have this mutation could be considered animal cruelty if they end up suffering from those conditions.
I can't get over how ADORABLE the scales baby is!!
For scientific purposes I would have liked to see an autopsy/ closer look at the poor lil noodle that didn't make it, I find those sort of things intriguing, like trying to find out what happened and find out why it didn't survive, I'm also in love with that scaleless baby! Omg she's soo adorable 😍🐍❤️
I thought "Wrinkles" was the het scaleless dad's baby? That's what it said on the original video where he was born.
Omg I’m so early! ❤
These babies are beautiful. Do you still have the DeKay's Brown snakes?
I love you guys, but I can't help but fel a bit awkward watching this video.
At the end of the video, you set up the baby ratsnakes next to the bin of the giant hognoses. How come were the giant Hogs setup first when they hadn't even peeped when the ratsnakes were out ? Why was the fuzzy stuff on the coark in an almost bare enclosure ?
When did flies ever get the chance to lay eggs on the bad egg ? Why and how long did the three living babies have to live in the same box as the maggotty egg ?
You will probably never answer or even see my concerns. I know you love your animals, I hope I'm just overthinking things.
My best guesses for your questions:
1) They don't upload videos in the exact same order as they record them. Often times they record multiple videos in a day as well. That's why we are seeing the ratcorns after the hognoses uploaded. And they take clips from multiple days/weeks of recording to make a video.
2) Like Emily mentioned in the video if someone didn't properly sanitize the wood before use its not impossible for random molds/fungus to grow on it even in a bare enclosure.
3) It's possible a gnat got into the pepsi incubator when it was opened and chose to lay eggs in the open egg. Gnats love that kind of environment.
4) Gnats life cycles are pretty fast and short and incubator temperatures can speed up that process. I doubt they were in there with gnats n stuff for very long. It's entirely possible that the maggots/larvae didn't start emerging from the egg until the day they recorded the video. I'm sure if staff noticed beforehand they would have removed the egg/babies. Having gnats when you have reptiles is pretty much an inevitably especially if you use dirt based substrates so they probably also didn't think much about a couple gnats flying around and didn't expect them to lay eggs in the cut egg either.
I hope this kinda helped cleared up some of your concerns.
(Edited to clarify things better)
@@ashleyduran6455 You answered most, thanks =)
But about the hogs, I wasn't talking about the video schedule. In the begining, we see the ratsnakes out and hogs not even peeping. At the end the ratsnakes are setup next to the hogs who were already housed. (so the baby ratsnakes weren't in a proper setup in a while, when the giant hogs were taken care of pretty much immediatly)
It left me with the impression there was a clear favoritism and the ratsnakes had been forgotten, especially with the unlucky wood and maggot situation.
But I guess with the info you gave me, plus the fact they're running a huge facility and all, it's most likely coincidental. They've shown time and time again just how much they care for every single of their danger noodle !
Thanks for your answer, it did help clear up many worries I had =)
@@jhepadidaymaypamoa5172 Ah I see what you mean now with the ratcorns and hognoses. I don't think it's a favoritism thing. A lot of the time if they have eggs that haven't hatched yet with the rest of the clutch they will leave them in the incubator another couple days after cutting the egg to see if will hatch on its own. ("Incubate until there's no debate" sorta thing since they don't want to pull the baby out of the egg, mess with it too much, or toss it too early) Most likely during that waiting period the all hognoses hatched (they hatched within 2 days) and were able to set them up sooner since they were all out.
@@ashleyduran6455It does make sense ! Thanks again, I tend to get wary about these things since one of my favorite UA-camrs got involved in a huge SA case. I don't want to be blinded by my admiration anymore.
Have a nice day =)
@@jhepadidaymaypamoa5172 No problem. I absolutely understand that and I'm glad I was able help. I hope you have a great day as well. 😊
"Youre so ugly" LMAO Ed so ruthless with the goofy baby
NOT a pet owner but a Snake Discovery fan! I guess I took for granted how well they take care of their snakes because I wandered onto another breeder’s page and was quite taken back by the conditions 🤷🏻♀️
Awesome and cute baby snakes~ lovely~💞
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
The baby that was in the other container that was with the unhatched egg, it's nose looks like a frowny face and I love it
