From a pet perspective it seems like they would be an excellent candidate for a bioactive enclosure with a good cuc to make the mess less of a problem :)
Heather Barnett-Cook Bio-active setups are hard to maintain with indigos once they’re large because they’re so active, crushing any plants and frequently burrowing into the soil.
I grew up with a huge Indigo named Charlie. He controlled the rodent population in the milkroom. That was also where we washed all equipment and calf buckets and bottles. The sinks are huge, with no drain plumbing. Just pull the plug and the water drains out on the floor and runs into the floor drain. Twice a day I washed the calf stuff. He knew the difference between me turning on water to mix calf formula, and me filling the sink to wash up after feeding them. The minute I threw the dirty stuff into the sink, he shot out from under the milk tank. (If you weren't expecting him you might have had a heart attack.) He moved like a black streak. Then he stretched out on the grate under the sink, waiting for me to finish the washing up. He knew what was next. I pulled the plug. The still hot water poured all over him. He was such a goof. It is a shame that they are endangered. Sometimes someone would tell my uncle that he needed to kill that snake. He told them they were crazy. That snake had a job, and he did it well.
I was fortunate enough to have a giant female Eastern Indigo snake living on my property I owned back in the 70’s. She was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen. She was well over 6’ long probably over 8’ actually and at her largest girth I would guess 10” minimum. She would sun on my back patio and I never bothered her unless I had to go out to the clothesline. When I opened the door to go out she could scoot off the fastest thing ever! When my husband and I sold the property we made the buyers promise to take good care of her. She was a wonderful asset to anyone to have .
For me, a sure sign of intelligence in a snake, be it an Indigo, Cribo, King Cobra, or even 'just' a Garter Snake, is the small, subtle head movements that are clearly on display in this video. Thanks for the upload, Dāv!
@@neo-filthyfrank1347 So we gonna ignore that multiple corvid species and raccoons have shown the ability to open and even memorize said lock patterns for years. You're the only foolish one here for assuming an animal is lesser than another. (Humans are animals, so your point is mute by that alone)
@@foxpatternedferret476 You seriously think your message (a) has any relevancy to what I said or (b) is saying anything remotely intelligent or correct? You're just as intellectually disappointing as the cribos. Seriously wtf. Are you underage or something?
I grew up in South Florida catching Indigo's with one of my favorite pastimes, but with all the development, they started disappearing, and I couldn't find them anymore. I was a catch-and-release guy. I love this video and the animals displayed, especially the large Eastern. I would love to get one at some point. Thanks a lot, Dave,and thank you, black pearl reptiles
This episode was an absolute treat for me because I know very, very little about these snakes. And I have to say they are some of the most impressive and beautiful ones I've ever seen! I completely understand why you love them so much! I know they are a completely different species but there's something almost cobra-like about the cribos - especially the black tail. Just something about the beautiful head pattern and head and body shape. They are utterly stunning and I think Orion could give any of the big pythons and boas a run for their money in terms of being an impressive snake.
When I was in the fifth grade (eons ago) my teacher brought in his pet Eastern Indigo snake. I was amazed at this stunning blue-black snake with glossy semi-iridescent scales. It must’ve been captive-bred because it was a perfect, flawless specimen and got me hooked! Of all Colubrids the Drymarchon sp.; Indigos & Cribos and the Pituophis sp.; Pine, Gopher & Bull Snakes are my favorite non-venomous species. Sadly due to over-collecting & habitat destruction many of these amazing reptiles have become endangered and several have been/continue to remain on CITES. Thanks to the diligent, concentrated efforts of conservationists the Indigo population is holding steady within it’s range. I’ve had the privilege of photographing several of these amazing species in the wild. Be aware in most states you can be issued a hefty fine for disturbing (even simply touching) any critically endangered wildlife. Ironically this includes helping one across the road! My apologies in advance but if an animal’s life is threatened by careless motorists I’ll risk the fine to save it!
WOW!!!! I thought I wanted a black tail cribo until I saw Orlando. That red throat eastern indigo is AMAZING!!!! Thanks for sharing with us Dav and John, you've got an amazing collection and breeding stock!!!!
That was an excellent video. Black Indigos are my favorite. It was good that the two knocks against these snakes were covered in the discussion. Namely, that they make a mess of their cages and that these normally gentle snakes can bite with powerful force if they mistake your hand for food. I have learned from experience to wear long protective gloves initially whenever taking my indigo out of its cage.
Indigo is my dream snake, not enough footage of these beauties thank you, I'm not even picky I will take any, the eastern is my favorite but after seeing that mexican WOW I could be moved
Indigos are my favorite snakes. Intelligent, strong and regal. My first was an Eastern Indigo from Chuck Elliott stock. He is now 19 yo. I also have others. Texas, Unicolors, Blacktails and Mexicans.
It is amazing! Equally amazing is the fact that they often share Gopher Tortoise burrows -,another critically endangered species! You can tell these snakes are captive-bred and well cared for. Many snakes in the wild possess wounds & battle scars which seem especially noticeable on solid black species like Eastern Indigos.
I absolutely love this video!!! Thank you so much Dav!! 😍 I learn so much in your videos. Your truly a very inspirational man and I absolutely love and support everything you do. Thank you John Michaels as well for sharing all your amazing snakes!! They are all super gorgouse and I can't wait to get my own Eastern and or Mexican Red Tail Indigo Snake.😍🤗😍 Very educational and informative as always!!! Absolutely stunning footage as well!!!! ❤💜💛 YOUR #1 FAN ~ Amanda Mandigo P.S. To answer your question Dav, I couldn't pick one honestly they are all stunning snakes in their own right!! Wicked pretty snakes.
Beautiful snakes. I love cribos. I also really love the fact that he's given all his snakes names. I feel like most big breeders just number or morph name their animals. It makes it really impersonal.
Nice video. Probably the most informative video on cribos/indigos on UA-cam. And this video also made the BTC leapfrog the eastern indigo at the top of my wish list.
Thank you for the informative video. I subscribe to Snake Discovery and watched where Emily unboxed Loki and have been interested in learning more about Cribos since then.
OMG I knew I needed an eastern indigo but I didn’t know I needed a Mexican indigo too! Thanks Dav!! (I’m sure my husband will thank you too 😂). They are just gorgeous, I may be drooling
5:46 my favorite shot. He poked his head out looking for food.lol like another commenter said, their sight and head movements gives them a more personable and intelligence about them. It makes them seem to be more than just instinct driven.
Love indigo snakes. When I was a kid, my brother and I had a pet uromastyx lizard named Rex. We would walk him outside on a leash. Everyday, a huge indigo would rush out of our neighbor’s bushes to check out Rex. It would get about a foot away, stare at him, look at us, then turn around and slowly slither back to his bushes. You could tell he was always a little disappointed that Rex wasn’t available to eat haha. Super cool snake
One day I'll buy from black pearl. I've had them saved in my favorites since I was 18 or 19 yrs old. I'm about to turn 31. I love the Eastern's but those black tail cribos blow my mind 😁
This was my favorite species (easterns) to see and occasionally photograph when I lived near Everglades National Park. There was one trail through the mangroves that seemed to be pretty reliable for them. Absolutely stunning and impressive species...all the indigos and cribos.
Hey, Dav. I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I know I'm gonna love it- so I pressed the like button anyway. And just in case you see this, I was wondering if you had any upcoming plans to visit any known Kingsnake breeders? Kings are by far my favorite of the colubrids, and it would be awesome to see where the breeding is going with them.
Hi Dav Thanks for the video. I did not know about the Cribo, or the Indigo. His snakes were all so beautiful. I think Orlando was my favorite. I learned so much in your video. RATTLE ON. 🦎🐍♥️Cindy
Awesome video of my favorite snake species, always digged the Drymarchon name as metal band name! Got a black mexican kingsnake as it's the closest to an Indigo i could get. I'll sure get a black tail cribo in a near future.... ...amazing animal! Cheers from Northern Quebec!
Great video! :) These are absolutely some of the coolest snakes in the world! They don't get anything near the attention they deserve in the hobby! :) So nice to see this video! :)
Absolutely loved the video!!! Love the snakes and I’m on John’s waiting list to get a blacktailed cribo 😁. Can’t wait to get one!!! Enjoy your videos!!
i was interested in all of these snakes before this video, but still really preferred the Eastern Indigo. after seeing all the varieties in video and moving around, i think i still definitely need an Eastern indigo in my life. absolutely a must have snake for me.
i grew up with a texas indigo who would sun himself on a rockpile in my yard and i remember watching him lift his front half up and calmly watch a flighty mockingbird trying to get him to leave. he very easily could’ve caught that bird but he simply was not hungry. totally unbothered, very regal. clearly, he was the king of the yard... he wasn’t bothered by people and minded his business so we left him alone.
The Mockingbird may have had a nest/chicks in the area it was defending. I’ve seen much smaller birds swarm and drive off big raptors like hawks if their territory is invaded, especially while nesting.
Thanks for another awesome video and some gorgeous snakes! Thanks to you and Snake Discovery reigniting my love of reptiles I am finally getting my first snake on Tuesday! 6 year old amel corn snake. Any name suggestions welcome!
I’m glad you went to his facility! I’ve been watching every video I was able to find with him because he is very knowledgeable on this beautiful snakes! Absolutely my favorite colubrids!
Great video! Dav, I have seen you at MHS meetings, but haven't met you. I have a number of Drymarchon from John and waiting for my Mexican Redtails now!
Thank you so much for this video!!! I bought an Eastern Indigo from John a year ago & it is by far the most interesting & coolest snake I have raised in over 40 years.
Gorgeous yellow tailed cribo! I live in the Peruvian Amazon and caught a wild one. She didn't even try to bite me...though I got musked pretty bad. Caught her on farmland and unfortunately there people kill any snakes the encounter....so I caught her and removed her to a reserve forest area nearby to insure her safety. I love Drymarchon
These are the most beautiful snakes I could never make up my mind which is my favorite. In a dream world and being 30 years younger I would have one of each
They are so amazing. I love their look and attitude. I gotta say the yellow-tail is my favorite. I am getting one once I get my kids out the house for college. I am going to fill my empty nest with a couple of dream snakes. Also, I can definitely attest to the beauty snake chomp! Dav, maybe you could do a specific video on beauty snakes?
It’s impossible for me to say which is the prettiest Mexican Indigo because they’re all beautiful! I adore that lovely head shape and those big, round eyes. I’ve come to find snakes’ faces quite endearing. Thanks for the video!
I had an Eastern Indigo when I was a kid. It looked different than the one in the video; he was shiny black except for a small crimson red oval on his chin. My mom was horrified by the way he killed mice, chewing on the back of their heads until they died. Their brutal way of killing prey is the main drawback to owning an indigo. But mine was absolutely tame around people. All the kids in the neighborhood handled him (some not too gently) and he didn't care.
I love them all the lol I love the drymarchon species of snakes indigos and cribos!!!! My favorite snake of all time!!! It would be an honor to meet John michels one day!!!
Once again, another great video. I don't know why I would expect anything else from you. Drymarchon are definitely on my bucket list. Of the Mexican Indigos, I think I prefer the red ones, but they're all great.
I was lucky enough to pick up a pair of easterns about seven-ish months ago, and they quickly became favorites. Definitely keep eyeballing other drymarchon now.
Beautiful snakes. If it weren't for the mess, they would absolutely be on my dream snake list. Heck, they still might be on that list...
From a pet perspective it seems like they would be an excellent candidate for a bioactive enclosure with a good cuc to make the mess less of a problem :)
@@heatherbc7914 Totally agree. A nice big bioactive set-up would suit them so well. I hope to have just that someday.
YAAASSSS Clint!!
Heather Barnett-Cook Bio-active setups are hard to maintain with indigos once they’re large because they’re so active, crushing any plants and frequently burrowing into the soil.
Please do a video on these!

Angela Smith your uncle seems like an awesome guy(: why kill such a beautiful & *harmless* creature.
Fantastic Story, Charlie is a legend
Angela Smith beautiful story
Wow, jealous of your experience!
Awesome!
Also, I love this breeder. He doesn’t seem to treat his snakes like just a breathing paint job. That they all have names is great!
Agreed the majority of breeders only care about morphs. Wish I could find more breeders like this.
Still way to small boxes to move around in. These guys are very active moving, it's sad to see.

Had an Indigo snake growing up in the 70s. She was like six or seven feet and was an awesome snake. Her name was Ogy, the last 3 letters of biology .
How was the 💩?
Those red-bellied Mexican Indigos are gorgeous, but I think Easterns are still my dream animal. Absolutely amazing. Great video!
The red phase is stunning! 😍
This was so awesome, really thank you for this, king of colubrids by far
