Oops, ignore the incorrectly numbered snakes 😂 It's been a long week, and it's wayy too late to edit, re-export, and reupload 😅 Hopefully people know what I meant!
I didn't even notice 😅
yeah noticed that too but it's not bad that u messed up here too cuz u mess up quite a bit but I think it adds personality to the channel and you. ^._.^ Hope that she can produce some nice albino or normal Burmese python babies in a year or two.
I understand
At 13:03 I see you got snow what state do you live and how much snow did you get
Its fine we just want to know what snakes are good
I always feel like im watching a better version of animal planet
Yesssss!!!!
K0r0 ha lol
Ikr
Yeah animal planet has more people drama then actual animals
Dont u mean WAY better? 😄
"They're just very fast moving animals, only when it comes to eating though"
yeah same
Lol same
Mood
Lol same her 😂
Brothers??

"I'm not normal."

The boa?

I’m glad Boas were on the intermediate list because of their size. I saw a big UA-camr promoting them as good beginner snakes and so many people just underestimate how much room an eight foot tank will take up in three years or how much a rabbit every month will cost. Seriously as exciting as it is, it’s best to go with a smaller snake at first, no matter how prepared you think you are.
Dude. If you're feeding rabbits to a Boa, you are REALLY over feeding them. Boas, especially the dwarf subspecies are excellent beginner snakes.
@@JMoore68 I don't own any boas, I was just going based off what I see them and many others feed larger boas. Like I said I was going off of the size of the snakes, as you need to drastically increase their tank size as they can reach great sizes. A lot of big snakes are surrendered because people bought them while they were small and no longer want to keep them once they require a tank that will take up a lot of space.
@@malevolentsnow9867 boas are big, but not like BIG if that makes sense. I think they are great for beginners as long as you are a dedicated sort of person. They arent super smart though. So there are better options IMO.
Honestly even a bearded dragon costs more to keep and takes more effort to keep. Boas are fine for beginners as long as they can dedicate the time and space.
emily: "they're very slow-moving animals.... and I think they're kind of dumb"
boa constrictor: hey what
exactly what he said in the end :D
LUL
My ball python nagini is actually reLy smart
mean
My boa is very sassy unless the person has my scent… like full on loud hissing and striking, but he’s still super young and I’m making a lot of progress with him!
(His name is Eden)
I don’t even have a snake but still binge watch snake discovery
Bubbles 123 same
Same and i actually kinda want a snake
i have no interest in having a reptile but same 😂 watching her channel reminds me of being 10 on a school trip where you meet a cool chick in khaki shorts who let's you touch a snake and shows you an empty tortoise shell
Me too I really want a snake but my parents won’t let me get one 😭😭😭😭😭😭
same
7:40 pickle Rick jumps into the tank behind Emily
I had to scroll a ways to find this!
I had to rewind because I thought I was seeing things lol
@@shark50401 saaaaaame
I'm getting my first BCI next week! I've mostly owned "beginner" snakes up until now, but a friend of mine can't care for hers anymore so she's giving him to me 😊
What size tanks would you recommend for a boa as I may soon be in a position to own one?
@@leathertophat2705 It depends on the age and gender, generally speaking you want a tank that the snake can fully stretch out in though. Currently my young male is in a 3ft enclosure but he's almost outgrown it already, so I'm thinking of upgrading to a 6ft enclosure. There's plenty of sites online that go into depth on the best sizes so I would recommend looking there, hope this helps 😊
@@whimsicalclouds OK thank you
Im absolutely scared of snakes but emily talks about them so passionately, Im starting to see them as the cute noodles that they are 😂
They can be super sweet and gentle! I've a ball python who is a complete sweetheart and has shown many of my friends and family how gentle most are and helped them get over their fear!
I was indifferent but curious before I found SD. Now I love these noodles and want my life to be surrounded by these things. I think I've even gotten my niece to be less afraid, too. Her mum got bit during feeding and now shes terrified of em, but slowly shes gotten used enough to pet Fifi's tail (ball python)
Mine likes to curl around my ponietail and i swear it thinks its a dog
My mom thought the same thing and I finally got her to let me get one and now we have 5 snecks sooooooo yah
If you're scared of snakes, I advise looking for wild ones and first observing them from a safe distance, and once you feel more brave, find a gentle species like a hognose or earth snake and try holding it on your own :)
“They’re slow moving animals...and I think they’re kind of dumb...” 😂😂😂
oh no my cornsnake ZOOM😅
😂😂😂 I think they’re kind of dumb ... but !
yes! that was the good stuff. i laughed . :D
i think most snakes are tbh lol
Sounds like the people I work with 🤔
I got a hognose for my first snake a week ago. I've only heard about the good stuff for keeping them and repeatedly got them recommended to me as a beginner snake. It's nice getting your information about picky eating and possible problems to look out for. I don't regret getting her at all but it's great to have a more nuanced expectation for my snake keeping
Olive Oil is so cute and friendly!! I can’t stop saying aww!🥰

When my son was in middle school, I put him into an "adventure day camp" run by a local wildlife/nature refuge. They got to see and handle all sorts of creatures. The center owned a large boa constrictor named Cuddles. When they were going to take Cuddles out of his tank and let the kids play with him, I declared myself an honorary kid and held up about one foot of snake. One of the volunteers was afraid to touch Cuddles - she said, "But aren't snakes slimy?" and I said "Not at all. The skin feels like an alligator-skin pocketbook, dry and almost soft. Jut put your hand on him." She did, and she was surprised. Cuddles really lived up to his name :-)
Aww
Thats the most amazing name I have ever heard for a snake😆
I always describe the feeling of snake skin (ball pythons in particular, but still applies to some other species) as that of a football
@@tarakat2275 I like the way snakes feel. You can feel the strength of their muscles under their skin, and they're nothing at all like those of a mammal. Their beauty and grace and strength are so very unlike ours, which is what makes them fascinating.
@@purplealice yeah, I love them so much. So beautiful, in every way. 🐍
I recognized the Western hognose immediately. They're my dream snake. Perfect size, cute little shovel face, multiple morphs, and sassy little divas.
Absolutely 😂 I have a 4 month old baby western hognose. She could be buried under the substrate, nowhere to be seen, but the second I open up the cage I just hear a little "Hhhsssth!" Sounds like a little air compressor lol! I love their little attitudes. But they're great when being handled
Our hog is being sassy and refusing to eat right now and just hides under the substrate but is very handlable
I love these guides like this!! I plan on getting a Ball Python myself, but I won't for at least another year, so all your tutorial videos are *extremely* helpful to be completely prepared when the time comes!!
I'm getting a hognose in a few weeks, we've got an amazing breeder picked out, but this video made me realize that there's more than just the typical smaller snakes. Like, I had never even considered a boa or burm as an option and I had honestly forgotten they exist, and now I think that I'll look into saving up for one once I do more research (and more experiencewith snakes, as this hognose will only be my 3rd snake ever). I had a family member who had an albino burm and she was gorgeous, but she had lost an eye when she was a year or so due to being fed live and the eye getting scratched then infected and had to be removed. She's still alive I believe, but she's about 27 years old if I remember correctly. Anyways, thank you guys for making this video! I love all your stuff!
Hi can you pls tell me where to find the breeder? And also, how is your snake
"They're very slow moving animals, and I think they're kinda dumb, but! I think that;s what makes them so friendly, honestly"
TBH I know a couple people this statement could also apply to. They're the slowest learners I've ever met, but you'll never meet a kinder soul than they.
Spaghettiboi33 I beg to differ but ok.
Spaghettiboi33 you can be both though. If you're using being smart as an excuse to be mean you're a pretty bad person tbh
Spaghettiboi33 you can be nice and smart
Intelligence and kindness are often inversely proportional.
notsae66 doesn't mean it has to be a strict rule
"It's hard to find finch eggs."
Me: welp time to start breeding finches so I can get egg eating sneks
That's what I've had to do with guppies for my garter snakes.
Sometimes the Petsmart’s finches have finch eggs (probably not the best quality but) also they’re not allowed to hatch them so maybe worth an ask if you really can’t find any
There may even be a finch breeder close to you. Finches are popular.
@keenan kovacs But some babies are too small to eat quail eggs, so that's why I joked about breeding finches
@keenan kovacs Did you not watch the video?
“I think they’re kinda dumb but that’s what makes them so friendly” 😂 I know people like that
I love them vocals @ the end, Emily...”When a Maaaaaaan Loves a Woma” 😂🤣😂 Good One 👍
Emily: Woma Pythons have a strange smell...
Me (lives in Australia): I bet it’s vegemite and beer!
lol 😂
Both tarantula and hognose “venom” is comparable to a bee sting. Yet in Illinois you need a permit to own a hognose because they’re technically venomous but not a tarantula which are definitely venomous. Doesn’t make sense to me
Probably because not everyone thinks immediately of a tarantula as a pet AND add on the fact that not all tarantulas have medically significant venom. Usually that's only Old World tarantulas. I've had to learn the difference pretty well because my roommate owns 16 tarantulas
Me, who is allergic to bee stings and doesn't know what they feel like to other people
@@starwolfishere53 imagine the brief instant of pain you get from a shot at the doctor's office but it lasts noticeably longer
@@stevensanders6696 oh ok 👌
Tarantulas all have varying degrees of venom. Some, like the Cobalt Blue, can cause mild to severe cramping while there are also tarantulas that their venom can cause organ shutdowns. As someone who works with and owns tarantulas, I have no clue why we don't need permits for some.
“ They are very slow moving animals and I think there kind of dumb” had me laughing so hard 🤣🤣🤣
I volunteer at my local zoo. I go and clean and get animals out for the public, and we have 2 common boas and I just love them. I've only held the Male(his name is Zeke) but I love it. It's such a comforting weight and he's so sweet
i got a hognose as a beginner, and i feel like i got really lucky that he’s always excited to eat
where?
I got a hog as my second snake and she's the best at eating... My friends hog on the other hand... his male hog is not good at eating
same here, my baby hognose ate right away!
Hognoses love to eat
@@georgehanna7644 pretty sure there super picky
Your videos have helped me so much in figuring out what snake to get as a first time owner. I know that hognoses are sort of in between, but you (along with other reptile channels and breeders, etc) have been so incredibly informative that it has totally helped my process. I had other snakes in mind but didn't realize their level of difficulty until I watched these. Thanks, Emily! I can't wait until you have your waitlist open!!!
Hey Emily! I’m getting a ball python as a Christmas present! I’ve searched up quite a lot about them as well, I’m looking forward to Christmas!
How’d it go? I wanna get a garter snake when I move out cuz my mom hates snakes 😑
How’s ur ball doing now?
Congratulations
Can you believe after a lifetime of being terrified of all snakes 2 years ago I came across snake discovery and now they're my favorite animal? My parents are the only thing keeping me from getting one so in 5 years, when I move out, I'm gonna be a snake mum! BTW my favorite snake is definitely the boa.
Big boa snakes do have a little expensive diet
I hope I can lose my fear of spiders some day
Yolo Swaggins watch Lucas the spider
@@squippites7356 yeeesss that cute lil spwidewr
4 years until I move out. I’m excited to get my first snake
Laughed when you said boas are prone to overeating... I’ve seen so many boas with what my friends and I call “cleavage”- rolls when they bend.
heliagrey lmao yesssss. I’m sure my girl would eat 7 days a week if she was allowed.
My friend had an albino burm named Buttercup. It took 2 people to take her out of her tank and we would let her wander the backyard or sunroom under our surpervision. She was so docile.
I fell in love with hognoses and got one as my first snake. I was aware of them being picky, but I was really lucky to buy a baby that ate pinkies straight away ^^ He's also really calm and handleable, he hasn't hiss on me since I've rehoused him the day I bought him. :)
Could you maybe in future videos mention how old the snakes get?
Like when most people get a cornsnake they won't know they can get a 40+ years, and I don't know how old Boas usually get
boas usually get to be about 20-30 years old. sometimes if you're really lucky you'll maybe get 35 years, I think the oldest recorded boa was about 40 years, but usually it'll be around 20-30, with 23-26 being most common
@@junipberbugsie9266 thanks!! I'm seriously considering rescuing one, but need the proper preparations of course and this is part of it.
I think this type of info would be more important for people not knowing anything about snakes and considering getting one, thinking they'd 'be rid of it' in a couple of years or something like people do with a lot of other animals
Corns actually usually only live around 15-20. Oldest ive heard of is 23. BC type boas typically make it to 20-25. Oldest i know of was 31. Im fairly certain ball pythons are the only snakes that can reach and exceed 40 years. 25-35 years is normal for ball pythons and the oldest snake ever was a 48 year old BP
Hi Carmen, I just got my first corn snake in July this year. It was very expensive. I opted to go straight for a 40 gallon glass tank (rather than purchase a small one for him as a baby, and then a larger one for when he got bigger). That was over $200 by itself, but plastic tubs are cheaper. The whole journey cost me about $500, with substrate and hides and enrichment and food and heat mats and temperature guns and thermostats all accounted for. The snake itself cost me quite a bit, because I got a special morph, but they can usually be sold for 20 to 50 dollars.
But I really love my little guy, he is so sweet. He eats well, he's healthy, he's curious. Life expectancy seems to vary wildly depending on the expert you're asking, but the general consensus seems to be that corn snakes live between 15 and 20 years at best. Make sure you do your research and buy from a reputable breeder, rather than from a large name like Petco or PetSmart, because a good breeder will handle snakes early and let you know what you can expect from the breed, morph, and lineage.
@@braunvieh1416 My cornsnake male, Nipper, will be 25 this year and he hasn't slowed down a bit. :) I hope a to keep him a few more years at least.
Alot of my friends feared snakes, like really, they would scream and shout whenever there's one, yet I mean look at this 0:29 it's hard to say no to such a cute face like that right?
hi
So cute!!
Akato Furisukai she doesn’t sound like a good friend imo...
@@battlebear437 she is just super scared if all animals .. even dogs , small cute dogs ... but ye I dont hang out with her anyway I just keep her around if I need to ask questions for homework lol
Akato Furisukai yeah...some people are afraid of all animals. I personally like just about everything (except for spiders...Lucas the Spider is the exception there).
I just love all the captions you put for your snakes in your videos!
Me: Likes and wants a Hognose
Me: Accidentally orders Gaboon Viper
Me: Immediately regrets purchase upon opening the box from FedEx.
oh, my gosh, hope youre fine - and got finally your Hognose snake!
Oh nooo
I take it you got to the anti-venom on time
wtf
lol This was a joke you guys. I am new, but not that new.
I wish Hognoses were as cheap as she said.
Everywhere I've seen has sold them for $200-$400
The cheapest one I've seen was $100
Have you checked at a local reptile expo? I know they don't happen very often, but they're usually loads cheaper at them
try Burmese Python, you can stack them for free in florido :D
Bind Torture Kill So your advice is to go get and entirely different snake?
The cheapest I've found is about 175 and I've seen ones up to 1200!!(the 1200 was a snow but still)
Right? I’ve seen leucistic hognoses for 4 grand. It’s honestly nothing like buying a corn.
Do I own a snake: nO
Will I ever get a snake: nO/MAbee
Do I binge snake discovery for hours: HeLL YaA
I might get a little snek buddy 1 day but for now, I snek less.
I got here before my notifications told me this was uploaded.
Love u Emily
This is me lol
Same, probably when I move out because my dad is scared of reptiles
I've wanted to own snakes and exotic reptiles sinds i was little but snake discovery is the reason i actually went thru with it and the reason i now own a snake sinds half a year ago.
Ahhhh when you brought out your woma I was all “when a man loves a woma”
Lol in one of the "guess the snake blindfolded" videos, their friend Jeff made the same joke XD
I love my hognose to bits. She's so beautifully derpy, and sooo docile, even as a baby. She eats from my hand and lets me pet her head.
I'd love to get a woma one day; seeing an adult at a reptile show decades ago was the first time I went "whoa" and started to consider owning snakes.
In birding we call the bird that starts you off in the hobby your "spark". Womas were my spark snake. 😊
The lavender hognose is GORGEOUS ❤ I wish I could get one, but they're not allowed in my city :(
Melissa Langdon I feel you neither can I
I feel you on that.
Ya, hognoses are some of my favorite snakes but I can't have them in my province
Melissa Langdon me too 😭😩
WHAT!!!!That sucks Lavenders are so gorgeous.Maybe try and get a Sable hognose
The last time I checked, florida had burms on their restricted species list, so you can obtain a permit to own one for the purposes of research or education, only. Retics are classified the same way.
They are I used to live in Florida. Reticulated pythons Burmese pythons Indian pythons green anacondas yellow anacondas African rock pythons and amethystine pythons are restricted and you do have to have a permit to own the snakes in the state of Florida as there's concerns about them spreading although that's mostly hype so we lose our rights to own these creatures there is no way that all except one of them could ever spread above about Tampa
13:50 - **me talking about my brothers**
I 💖love💖 the subtitle "thought process" you put on for each snake!!
I just have to say, every time i am scrolling through youtube and my 5 year old is with me and she sees your videos she gets so excited and basically screams "the snake girl mama! We need to watch the snake girl!" Also, these videos are slowly getting me over the fear of snakes i have. So thank you for that!
I love the whisper of saying Doug is kinda dumb as if he could understand what you were saying 😂😂
My first snake was a Western Hognose thanks to your channel! I absolutely fell in love, did all the research, and this is my second year of having her. I introduced her to my Dad and he got an Anaconda Morph!
Thanks for making these videos, it makes it so much easier to find out what I want as my first snake
Olive Oyl is my fav~ All the smooches were adorable and even though she was was in shed, she is absolutely lovely. A big, gentle noodle c: (both Womas are a close second because the spots on their heads look like bushy brows)
"Which one is your favorite out of the 5?" ..... Easy one: thanks to your channel I bought a hognose. I love their shovelfaces and their attitude! Mine has the benefit of being an awseome eater thou.
Good advice and wonderful tips on snakes, most of all the Burmese Pythons, they are really docile and chill, the only time our 11ft albino we rescued ever bit anyone, was because handling prey and not washing hands, and one time, escaping from a cage, and someone's foot was poking out from under a blanket as they slept, and being blind, he struck at it thinking it was food. It was a scary wakeup call, but no perm damage was done and they all had a bit of a laugh about it afterward. But the most important info is to always have someone else around when handling them because they can accidentally kill people by squeezing around the neck too hard or cutting off circulation. They don't mean to, but they can do it by accident, same with Reticulated Pythons, which are a bit more "aggressive" compared to Burmese Pythons, and of course anacondas can be at risk of that too if you aren't careful.
Another UA-camr (GoHerping) He rescued a BCI Boa named "Rosie" from where she had been a "classroom snake" here she had spent many years basically neglected, not given a heat source of any kind and she had been underfed as well. They also thought she was aggressive too...but nope! Turned out she was a sweetheart even AFTER she had been basically mistreated ...ugh, it broke my heart this baby had suffered like that all those years. Now she's a happy girl and has heat and all the food she needs :) but my point is how sweet she was even after years of abuse and I hope people would look to a rescue as a source to find their BCI /BCC boas. Great video Emily!!!
I love how Olive Oyle kept "smooching" my ball python loves the smell of hair and likes to climb up to my head when being handled lol
My ball pythons do the same thing. They crawl up my braids and ponytails and I have to get them untangled all the time. They also love perching on my glasses or pretending to be crowns.
I’m in my final year of undergrad as a biology major and studying strike kinematics in our colony of boa constrictors. I LOVED the section on boas in this video, they really are such adorable and fascinating animals.
I love the boas i have a albino sharp on hold waiting for the weather to get it shipped and as soon as i get another large enclosure i have a Suriname red tail on hold as well. So yes i love the boas gotta be my all time favorite for the larger snakes.
As always, your videos are so informative and I love them. I have a hognose, a boa constrictor, a ball python, a corn snake and an African house snake and I absolutely love them all. They so very different in personnality and habits. I love Burmese pythons but I don't think I would have one because of the adult size, at least for the time being. Many thanks.
i want to own finches, quail, AND egg eating snakes at some point so i think that will work out wonderfully
I'll own zebra finches just for their adorable little honks
If you ever see dead baby quails, don’t be surprised. Quails are naturally little sh*** and they kill their chicks.
When I started watching Snake Discovery, I really didn't like snakes, now I find them fascinating and really want an egg eating snake, I know I want an adult female, however we're waiting until we have the time/money and can find a definite regular source of quail eggs as I would hate to get one then not be able to feed it!
Have you checked out Purely Poultry?
One option, if you have a backyard, might be to keep your own quails.
Love your show. Just got my first boa. 2019 Anery Het Snow. He's as docile as a Ball Python but not shy. Loves being handled. Amazing animals. 😍🐍
I'm a big fan of your UA-cam channel I watch your channel all the time almost every day I have 2 ball pythons and I'm going to get a boa Constrictor I love my snakes I don't breed them they are just my pets .
My daughter will be THRILLED that "Snake Family" uploaded
I have a bcc and she is an absolute sweetheart, although she’s still growing(she’s about 6 foot right now). Over here in the U.K. they have a really bad reputation for being “snappy” but our lil baby genie is so docile that people often are surprised when me and my mum can just reach into her viv and pick her up.😁
I've never seen a snappy boa
As a brit ive been wondering about insurance and such. If I were to get a boa would I need to sign papers and announce to the local council I own one? I know its not a dangerous animal but I imagine its still considered "exotic"
do another one of this genre (top snakes for people with certain experience) they are my fav vids on the channel keep up the good work 😁
Thanks Emily that you say metri too. It dont remember All those feet, foot system. So thank you 😍
I have a Hognose! He was my very first snake haha, and he eats like no bodies business. I think they’re so goofy and adorable :)
Burmese pythons are DEFINITELY my favourite, the wildtype just looks so gorgeous! Such beautiful leopard-print markings, so clean and high-contrast looking even without us having to mess with their genetics at all.
My first snake passed away and I never got another, but I'm kinda inspired to get back into snake ownership, thank you for the informative and fun videos :)
This is a massively informational and interesting video, thanks so much!
7:43 the pickle made me laugh 😂
I don't have a snake, nor do I think I'll ever have one, but I love your videos. I live a snake keepers life through you 😁🐍
Me too😂
Pickle Rick is a bit of a running meme on this channel.
"this snake is pretty expensive, it runs about $150-$200"
Me, looking at my more expensive ball pythons: 😭
I want a special piebald so bad, but not till that price drops haha. Apparently my friend bought a piebald ten years ago for $3k... Jesus!
My sister got our Albino het granite Bremise for $125 at reptcon but yea the tifino ball was like $450
caitolent I want a piebald ball python so badly too. They are just beautiful animals
My piebald was $450 🥴
I got mine for free!
. .because my dad caught it-
And its a reticulated python-
Loved this episode. Ya'll are always doing amazing things. Like Clint, N.E.R.D, Dav, and Brian, ya'll are always a joy to my family to watch. We got a Spider Ball Python as our first scale baby, but my two year old always asks to watch "cutes" (his term for spiders and any reptile from a baby Anole to a 16ft Saltwater Croc he wanted to bring home from the Alligator Farm) and my 8 year old daughter is always asking me information about what she saw on the aforementioned channels... I'm pretty sure in coming years, I will be able to live my childhood dreams vicariously through them... I'm excited to see the finished reptile center in coming years, keep up the great work. Also PICKLE RICK!
Love the little snek thoughts.
I actually caught a common boa in the wild in central America once and it was a total sweetheart! He had a ton of ticks all over him and stayed almost perfectly still when we removed them from him, literally as docile as a pet boa. They really are gentle giants 🐍💕
I have my heart set on a hognose I love them so much lol I will scent anything that I have to I will buy appropriate fish or get one that’s already eating mice and I’ll give them some space when they first come home I won’t have one for years anyway lol
I love hogs, but their legality 'is controversial' in my state :/
Keira Charlton that sucks but you shouldn’t break the law for love lol
@@jenc9532 I know XD I think if you have a venomous snake license you might be fine. Idk
Keira Charlton lol that’s good that’s why everyone needs to do their own research
i have been binge watching this channel in preparation to get my first snake (probably a corn snake, i got to handle one and adored it) but now i just cant stop watching 😔
I work at an animal shelter in Germany where I also care about our reptiles. Amongst ball phytons and cornsnakes we have two boas (one Bcc and one BCI). Love both of them! We also have an albino Burmese Python there, but the sad thing is that no one ever wants it bc of its big size
Oh, my first snake is most _definitely_ going to be babied as much as a snake can. _Especially_ if it's as cute as a hognose.
I remember the egg-eating snakes from the room tour! Once you got them going, you couldn't get them to stop! All of their adaptations are so cool.
BCIs are the biggest I'm willing to go with snakes. I always hear such good things about them and heaven knows I need a slow enough snake to catch.
I really think you should have shown just how big 17-20ft is. Olive Oyl is still only about half the adult size and doesn't quite spectacularly show how long the adults are. They're absolutely beautiful snakes, but they are a _lot_ of snake.
My parents hate snakes, so I'm not allowed to have them even if I'm paying them rent. But once I'm solidly out, I'd love to keep a small variety of snakes. The first one will be either a ball python or a corn snake. Once I'm comfortable with them, then I'd love some garters.
Have I owned a snake? No
Do I currently own a heck sneks? No
Will I still watch this video regardless because I wanna support Ed and Emily and their scaly babies?
*Heck yes*
The price increased a lot for me! I got a normal type western hognose that's hot conda and he was less than a week old! He was almost 300$!
Hi, I ABSOLUTELY love you channel ive been watching for 3 yrs now, just wanted to say i have so many finch,quail,canarie,chicken,dove eggs and more i have over 50 finches and a lot of my eggs i dont need so if you ever need some just ask the only downside is i live in the uk but i could ship them safely making sure they don’t break!!!! Thanks so much if you read this and I’m always happy to send eggs to anyone else!!! :)✨
Personally, I would love to get one of the huge snakes like the burmese or the boa, but I definitely don't have the room. Maybe eventually I will... I'd honestly love to have a massive adult snake and have their enclosure pretty much take up an entire wall, with tons of space to stretch out and climb, and have the whole thing be bioactive. It'd be like having a living wall.
Anyways, I don't even have my first snake yet, my grandma had previously said absolutely no snakes while I'm in her house, but recently she changed that to a maybe, so hopefully in the next year or so I can get my first snake, which will most likely be a ball python. They're my top favorite snake ever.
Bermise Python are awesome but me and my sister hope are still trying to figure out what we are going to do when Fluffy get to big for the 40 breeder there is only so much space in a 850sf house and where up to 12 snakes and about to take care of 3 of our friends snakes till they can take them back
Look at the size of Doug's tongue! I just got my first snake, a baby Hognose, and of course his tongue flicks are teeny tiny.
I was watching this video and started thinking about where to keep my hognose and my MBK when I get them (cause It's illegal to have reptiles in my country, so I need to move to another country) and I saw the Tank vs. Tub video...Snake Discovery really has a video for EVERYTHING...I really love this channel
I love this, very informative ❤
I got a woma python as my first snake. Fell in love with taking care of snakes currently looking at buying another woma python to breed
WOMA!!! they're on my dream list. I love their little eyebrows
Luckily they are easy to source, being in Australia :)
@@lyzzidc captive bred source... I hope
@@eventerkeira In Australia, it's illegal to own any reptile that isn't captive bread or Native
and we need a Reptile License to own reptiles
@@lyzzidc makes sense, I mean, people still do it anyways... But o said that because they are native and therefore have a big supply, even though they are endangered
Love the snake comments you put it!
Love this channel thank you❤️!!!!
Often overlooked but very important: Burms may not try to kill adult humans, but absolutely can and have killed small children and babies. This combined with the fact that snakes can escape enclosures on occasion makes them highly dangerous, and people who have/ will have young children should not own them.
African egg eaters are super cool! I love them and I really wonder how they find enough appropriately sized eggs in the wild to survive when it’s hard to find them even knowing where to look. Makes you wonder
because small birds are extremely common in most countries but small eggs are diffucult to buy cause we dont eat them
@@adelehammond1621 Yeah, everywhere in the world there's tiny little drab brown birds.
I find this so funny. I started watching this channel 3 years ago and it made me want a snake. I got my first snake 2 and a half years ago and she is a ball python. Last year we got a male ball python. And this year I got my third snake that is a BCI. I just found this video and I watched the one for beginners a while ago. I just love how I somehow followed the recommendation but I made my decision for my future snakes over a year before I watched any of these videos.
This channel is so wholesome.
I'm wanting to own my own snake, and of course I'm going to start with a ball python or cornsnake but I'm starting to fall in love with the boa, so that might be my second snake.
I have a dog, though. So I might need to either make them friends or if one doesnt like the other just keep em apart
Et3rna11yD3ad I would recommend just keeping them separate. Snakes can’t make friends, they don’t have the same thinking process.
7:43 a pickle just jumped into the enclosure in the background 🤣🤣🤣
For a sec I thought that I was seeing things 🤣🤣
A Pickle Rick to be precise
So glad I checked the comments... I thought I was seeing things
Pickle Rick shows up in almost every video.
I was scrolling through the comments to see who saw that to make sure it was real
@@benuwu6656 I replayed the video to make sure Im not seeing things 😅
We love your videos!
I’m absolutely IN LOVE with the Lavender Hognose
Please let the snakes know they're good boys/girls I love them all
I’m so sad 😭 here in france the hognose snake is considered as dangerous as the Burmese python so you must pass a test to be able to get one
I absolutely love France! I wish I could speak better french though.
That's too bad. Here in Canada, at least in my province, we can't own the western hognose because it's considered a native species. It makes me sad because I love the Westerns.
@@AutumnFalls89 Which province do you live in?
I live in Iowa so I can't get a western because they're native, but I have a ball python and he's great
Nodyaj12 huh, you should be able to keep a captive bred one
I don’t know how she’s done it, but she’s sold me on snakes being majestic. I have watched hundreds of your videos since I accidentally discovered you about a week ago and it’s completely changed my mind on snakes as pets. As a nurse I appreciate how she addresses medical concerns to certain bites and constrictors, well done. Plus they just seem like a truly kind couple. They are the only snake breeders who seem ethical on UA-cam. Quite impressive.
As an Australian I love it when you show Aussie snakes 😊
