Different, but similar. Manchurian Water Snake / Russian Rat Snake / Elaphe schrenckii. Can be found on Morph Market "other rat" Does have need for 80 basking (perhaps?) and could be brumated for 3 to 5 months each winter. Similar to the Fox Snake.
They are. I've had a chance to see/hold a wild one. That snake was the tamest snake i've ever held, He was just chilling in my hand anchored on my pinky. And when they are young they really do look like a toy snake. Story behind it was that a friends child brought one home from a camping trip, and she called me up saying hey can you come and get this snake (she's terrified of them) I heard the story of how it came to be in her house and on my way over i was on the phone with the local reptile rehaber/DFW, both told me that if it looked ok then to pick a good spot and send it back out in nature, told them i was thinking about the park/wild life area right behind the apartment complex i live in and they said it's a perfect place, because they are found there . let the little guy go closer to the river. I couldn't go to the place that it was taken from over 3 hr drive up into the mountains to a private camp ground.

I live in the cold northwest. It's starting to get cold. I've always used electric oil heaters in my room. There are warm and cold spots in my 12 X 12 ft room. this year I have reptile tanks on 3 walls and fish tanks on the other. My room is more warmly rounded this year. I have heat emitters and heat mats in or around all of them.
This was a great video! We had a recent scare when the house thermostat (not the enclosure thermostats!) broke and we had to use our emergency, slightly higher watt bulbs to protect the Mournings. Keeping more cold-tolerant reptiles would have made the whole ordeal less scary, but at least for now, everything’s warm again and the girls are doing fine.
I love how distracted you can get sometimes! That would totally be me if I was doing a video. Also I think Diamond is going to get your ear one of these days when you least expect it. Xoxo
Being in Canada, it always amazes me how reptiles In Canada survive ! Like lizards/snakes, seeing warm climates in the states like Texas where reptiles thrive, I never understood how these reptiles even exist in Canada !
There is a canal near me where there are tons of painted turtles. I have seen them basking in the sun, stacked up on top of each other. And I've seen then swimming in partially frozen water. I'm sure they were just crossing to a warmer place. But seeing them in water that cold was crazy.
Thai bamboo rat snakes should have made the list, I have the O.p. coxi subspecies (prettiest of them all imo) but they all look stunning and are relatively easy to keep. But at least you mentioned mandarin rat snake, definitely one of my future need-to-get snakes. :D
How do you find their temperament for handling? I really want one, they are beautiful, but I handle every snake I own and really like doing so, I don't want to get a snake I would be stressing too much by handling semi-regularly (2-3 times a week for most of my snakes, never too long).
@@GamesAndShips I got mine when he was couple months old and he was very skittish and bolty, I had to use so slow and calm movements when taking him out but once in my hands he was quite cool with it and calmly slithered around. I think it took some half a year with regular short handlings(twice a week) to tame him down, still rather goes away when taking out but at least doesn't bolt away in nanoseconds. So long story short, they have a strong fight or flight response especially as babies, but once they realize they're not getting eaten they're calm to handle.
I think it would be really cool to hear about how these turtles survive negative nine degrees,, as well as brumation how that works in the wild that cold.
Rubber Boa!!! My fav snake in the world bar none. I live in Idaho so of course I own 2 of them lol. Glad to see they are getting some recognition. Don't forget they NEVER bite and seem to love to be held. They should be in every snake owners collection.
I live in Florida, and the only non mammal I own so far is an axolotl cause my dad keeps our house at like 62 degrees Fahrenheit all the time so the water is normally at about 65-70 (I keep her tank next to a window with the sides covered, the sun helps the plants grow and help keeps her tank at the right temp without needing a heater or a chiller), and she does great! Wouldn't recommend axolotls as a first time pet tho, like he said you have to know what you're doing as far as water levels and when I was 13 almost 14 I had no idea what I was doing. It was super stressful for the first like 6 months lmao, but I got everything sorted out eventually.
"You will not see me out in negative nine unless I'm bundled up!"...me, who is also Canadian, giggling. I'm from the prairies and negative nine is considered a nice day during the winter 🤣🤣🤣.
I went camping once in the mountains in California and axilotals are definitely there there super cool i went swimming in one of the lakes there and they where everywhere in there
I think Abronia Graminea also deserve a shout out. A lizard that is housed in mid 70s with a hotspot of low 80s and that can still thrive with temperatures in the 60s.
The first time I saw a fox snake in the wild (Illinois), I thought it was an escaped pet. Just showed up by my driveway. I relocated it to a nearby forest preserve.
I'm in Ohio...I see more rat snakes, but I have seen fox snakes a lot too (I live in 50 acres of woods) ❤ they seem more docile than the rat snakes I've caught (and released)
I didn't know you're Canadian, even after a few videos I've watched. That's too freakin' cool. I'm in Nova Scotia, and my house can get chilly before we turn on the wood furnace, so this is pretty cool for some ideas of reptiles that won't be bothered terribly in my house if I had one.
random snake story: i was one at a summer camp in nor cal, and there was this snake (i think it was a rubber boa, but im not sure) being bitten by a giant ant. the ant was just latched ton to the snakes mouth, and it took like 10 minutes to pry the ant off, but in the end the snake was alright, but we did see the snake again while walking back to camp from dinner, but anyway, that was just a weird little snake story.
There are several old world rat snakes that fit on this list and are often easier to acquire than Mandarin rat snakes. My favorite is the Japanese rat snake, but Korean, Russian and Dione's rat snakes all have similar parameters for care. They're all very active, interactive, and do great at temps between 60 and 75f with a basking spot at ~84f.
Wicken: These guys are found all the way up at 3k feet above sea level. Me, living at 7k feet above sea level: and this is why there are so few reptiles in the valley *sniffs*
I feel like such a bad loyal follower. Somehow I'd totally forgotten you'd gotten a rubber boa. 😅 lol. Awesome list. I know you said a kingsnake video is coming soon, what about your milksnake? Been a minute since we've seen her.
I would really love if you could do a in depth rubber boa care guide ! i can’t find any videos :( and they’re native to where i live and i’m really interested!
Abronia are also great cold weather reptiles. They live in the cloud forests of Mexico where it can dip into the 40s (F) at night (although I wouldn’t recommend keeping a cb in temps thay low) but I let my lower temps dip into the 60s at night and normally it gets to the mid 70s to about 80 depending on the season. They also require humidity in the 60-80% range
Yea, I've been doing research on abronia. I would like one in the future. I'm working out if a heat lamp is necessary, and also how to make a screen enclosure work for the substrate and setup.
The ending for the vid was so botched but you still got it done hahaha good one. Love this, never knew about rubber boa, what a cute little noodle boi.
The nature center I work at has a eastern fox snake here in indiana. I love him. And we also have a painted turtle. We have tons of them at our wetlands. But the fox snake is a male named Todd. We have had him for yeeeeeaaaaars
The herpetarium I used to work in, in Ohio had a fox snake. It's not actually legal to have native species but someone had caught it and had got it switched over to frozen thawed and had it for awhile so it couldn't be released. The herpetarium could legally have him though. It's been awhile and he unfortunately passed shortly after I started there, they think from old age. However he was extremely sweet and chill for being a wild caught snake. He was one of my favorites there.
Rubber boas are one of my favorites and I hope to keep some one day. I’m from southern California and have found them as high as 7500 ft elevation under snow covered logs. It’s pretty cool to be able to find them here.
Funny you should mention turtles. My parents live in the countryside and they told me they saw a bunch of painted turtles basking on a log just last week. Goodness it's almost November and they're still out there, chilling.
Hi Adam, greetings from the UK. Canada is the place my partner and I would love to live!. You got distracted and did not finish telling us how the rubber boa got named lol, would like to see more video footage of them.
I actually now the websites you got those painted turtle prices at underground reptiles I believe they are redicolous and sell things like skunks to sloths to things like coral snakes and even I saw a rattle snake before
Can you do a video on water snakes??? They have caught my attention. From the research I've been doing, they seem to make great pets. I've been researching these guys as much as possible, but info on their care is limited.
There are actually quite a bit of cold hardy reptiles. Snakes: garter snakes, milk snakes, corn snakes, some king snakes. Lizards: five-lined skinks, fence lizards. Turtles: common musk turtles, midland painted turtles (maybe western and eastern painteds), common snapping turtles, red-eared sliders, map turtles, eastern box turtles (with correct permitting and as long as it's captive born and breed), North American wood turtles. And probably many more, I'm just to lazy to look it up and go through my books.
Almost any time I go for a hike see painted turtles and fox snakes here in northern ohio also Fox snakes get calm really quick after holding them for a little while
Am from liverpool England and in one of the city park's (sefton) thier are huge Terrapins in the ponds and six months earlier the ponds were frozen solid!
Tiger salamanders are another amphibian that is a great pet for those who want animals that do well in cooler temperatures. I really wish people liked amphibians more.
@@WickensWickedReptiles it's my dream to have one, but it's kind of tricky to own one here in my country since most of the husbandry information available I see aren't really for countries in tropical settings.
When I bike ride I see these turtles on logs in the canal, tons of them (I’m in NJ). Always wondered what they did when it’s between 20-35f in the winter months.
Not a lot seems to be known about them in captivity, most of how I keep mine is from a really nice rubber boa breeder who answered my questions on FB. Which is a shame cause they are really great lil dudes.
SOme varieties of Bluetongue Skink can manage surprisingly low temperature. I start seeing them where I live, in early spring with temperatures only just starting to getting into the low 20s celsius (So right on 70f), and in the middle of winter we can get low single digits during the day, and distinctly sub-zero at night! And next spring there they are again, acting like the ground didn't turn into an ice-cube there for 6-9+ weeks It is true that you'll want to give them a basking spot that a lot hotter (say, lower 30's celsius, low 90's fahrenheit), but it's the fact that they can handle the lows that makes them so adaptable! This is all referring to the the Victorian-phase Easterns. If you get an Alpine blotchy, then they will be able to handle even cooler!
I love how for fish people, the hard part about axolotls is that they only take live food, and for reptile people it's the water parameters
They will take the pellets or bloodworms if you assist them. They are very bad at finding things.
Toads only take live food and they get addicted to mealworms really easily (currently having this issue with mine)
Lol yea water perameters are easy but humidity for reptiles is so hard 😂
@Krew Miles you were right, no one gives a shit.
Yeah I was huge fish person it’s always funny to listen to reptile people about how hard aquariums are.
I don't think the turtle butt-breathing video is even a question...
hahahaha ok you got it!!
I came searching for this comment, and wasn't dissapointed
E
Fak snakes
I think that Chinese Cave Geckos should have gotten onto the list. So freaking cool.
agreed they would totally fit
Garden of Eden Exotics hellyeah!! Happy with my two species ^^
Agreeeee
Wow, I just looked them up and they look so cool! I have no clue why I never heard of these guys before.
They are amazing. I've got Goniurosaurus luii (1.4.4 and more eggs incubating) and G. araneus (0.1).
Hey diamond, whose that guy with the glasses who thinks he's the star of YOUR channel?
Diamond really is the star of the show
Diamond star is that a Jojo reference
I was wondering that too
You should make merch that says “Stop trying to bite my ear” 😂
I should!

never heard of the mandarin rat snake before, think i have a new dream snake
they are amazing

I actually thought that garters would have been on the list. In Tennessee we see them out roaming as cold as 40 degrees Fahrenheit
I've seen them, corns, and waters
I agree! Up in Massachusetts they’re out and about until it’s legit winter. Like below freezing for a while.
they fit for sure
Water snakes too
Yes, but in captivity they need 75-85 F tanks and a hot basking spot.
can we all just say that the bearded dragon falling asleep on his shoulder ADORABLE
he's a good man that Diamond

@@WickensWickedReptiles it's my dream to have one, but it's kind of tricky to own one here in my country since most of the husbandry information available I see aren't really for countries in tropical settings.
When I bike ride I see these turtles on logs in the canal, tons of them (I’m in NJ). Always wondered what they did when it’s between 20-35f in the winter months.
Bro wit respect ✊🏼 ur like the Seth Rogen of this Chanel I like it
HAHAHA! Another Canadian gem!
I have a mandarin rat snake and a Thai bamboo rat snake. It is sometimes difficult to find a place in the house cool enough for them in the summer.
exactly
Could you please do an in-depth rubber boa care video soon? It’s hard to find info on them.
yes, coming soon
Not a lot seems to be known about them in captivity, most of how I keep mine is from a really nice rubber boa breeder who answered my questions on FB. Which is a shame cause they are really great lil dudes.
SOme varieties of Bluetongue Skink can manage surprisingly low temperature. I start seeing them where I live, in early spring with temperatures only just starting to getting into the low 20s celsius (So right on 70f), and in the middle of winter we can get low single digits during the day, and distinctly sub-zero at night! And next spring there they are again, acting like the ground didn't turn into an ice-cube there for 6-9+ weeks
It is true that you'll want to give them a basking spot that a lot hotter (say, lower 30's celsius, low 90's fahrenheit), but it's the fact that they can handle the lows that makes them so adaptable!
This is all referring to the the Victorian-phase Easterns. If you get an Alpine blotchy, then they will be able to handle even cooler!
very interesting
Hahaha you could not resist the amphibians 🖤🖤🖤
'But their not reptiles, their amphibians.' 😂
We have an animal rehab here they have an eastern fox snake and they keep it at a constant 70-75 degrees f
