Aww seeing Jupiter rest her head in Ed's hand, it reminded me so much of when dogs dot he same with their humans. Snakes really are underappreciated as actual pets (i.e. animals with which we can have an emotional connection) rather than as exotic decoration. Jupiter is just a beauty, and this old girl is sending that old girl a big lot of love!
Try too remeber there are multiple classes of reptile. And among them some groups like raptors are incredibly intelligent on a spectrum. Emotional intelligence is not apart of that spectrum for the majority of species. The ability too feel love for exams far too complex for a snake too ever understand or physically feel. So when you humanize a creature that can kill you have too be careful and understand its still not a domestic animal or a mammal. Snakes absolutely can chose a favorite person, they can feel comfortable and and calming sensations in a person's presence. But they will not jump into oncoming traffic for you. They won't notice if you die. Ect. Just be careful and understand even amongst birds, the ability too feel complex emotions isn't universal. Be safe ♡ and love your scally friends. Just be safe. My own bearded dragon was a damn puppy who could snuggle. But I still understand that behavior was mostly one sided. He wasn't snuggling for my sake like a dog might if you had a bad day. He snuggled for warmth and safe naptime. I own a viper that also snuggles, but you could imagine that doesn't happen much. For a multitude of reasons lol.
Some snakes are intelligent. All snakes can befriend and trust humans. But no snake can have a true, loving emotional connection to a human. This is mainly because oxytocin is only found in mammals. ( Oxytocin is the 'love hormone' and generally constitutes something to be considered love; to the best of the knowledge of science. ) By this logic, because snakes are reptiles and cannot produce oxytocin, they biologically cannot feel love. This is also why pet dogs or farm animals can feel love in the most objective sense toward humans. Trust ≠ love. They can and should go hand in hand, but they are not the same thing. You have confused them.
@@austrolonium8115 Well base on observation and parrot intelligence levels that are far higher than dogs, parrots can feel live too. But their intelligence and emotions etc. are in 4-5 years old level (as we know now). So not only mammals. Birds (not all of them but a lot) are able of thinking, feeling emotions such as grief - yes they really mourn after they loose their companion, I am keeping parrots for 20 years, I lost some and I saw how they were acting in the face of their companion death. They can also befriend other species, mine budgie was attached to injured fish that was sitting in hospital tank near her cage. Now I have quaker parrot for about a month, and this is even higher level than budgie or cockatiel, but they show higher intelligence (more like 5 years old) learn quickly (surprisingly quickly), and he really show us that he miss us. When i come back from a walk, he jump on my chest and cuddle under my chin, same with my dad when he come back from work, and he make affection sounds. But well, parrots are one of the most intelligent animals on Earth. And we still keep learning about what they are capable of (and each species is capable of different levels of understanding world around them, words- they can understand words context, they are not simply mimicking, they are talking, they get easily bored - trust me, so easily. They need TONS of mind stimulations or they will be in depression and self harm state, they are playing just for fun, and that list goes on and on. I wasn't aware of this medium parrot intelligence until now, I was sure that only macaws, african greys, amazons and other big parrots show that level, but no, quakers have brain of a most intelligent parrots in much smaller body. But this intelligence is also a minus, as I told, they need so much stimulations, puzzle games, he even play toddler games on my phone and seems to start to understand how it works (and he is just a baby 5 months old), they can't be left alone in a cage for hours - I saw so many bald parrots in the zoos, they need huge amount of space and mind stimulations that most zoos can't offer sadly. And I must admit, taking care of a quaker parrot is like taking care of a child, not a dog or cat. I have both, dog and cats, and none of them is as affectionate as this little bird. Yes both dogs and cats show love to me and family, but not on that level. Sorry for long post, I just wanted to tell that birds are very, very high species when it comes to intelligence :) Most parrots are somewhere in primates level :) as we know now.
I’ll be honest, those cages looked super small on camera and I was worried for a while but kept telling myself “it’s probably just camera distortion”. Seeing all the animals in them really proves to me that it was true and that they were, in fact, super big! That’s awesome!!!
Im happy to see you are very proud and happy of Alaska's future, and i hope you guys have the same happy future as her as well! It is sad that you had to give her away, but its great to know that she is doing amazing with Emily! Have a great day Alex!!
Ally is my fave along with Rex and Jupiter. I learnt to love reptiles through these three and if I could responsibly give a tegu a home ( or any reptile for that matter I would). She’s a beautiful girl and I’m so glad you’re at ease knowing she went to an amazing home. We are so grateful to you all for letting us meet her.
Can we just recognize that Emily and Ed have no problems in having special needs animals in display? Not only they home them, they have in display not "perfect" animals and are teaching about their disabilities. It's perfect.
It's great, especially with Rex being the "centerpiece" more or less, and being special needs due to her early life. Moody being congenitally blind, Ally having suffered an accident, and Rex having been neglected also serves to educate people about how disabilities occur and how to adapt.
So many people think disabilities lessen the value of their animals, which isn’t true at all. I’ve had a disabled dog for 14 years and I wouldn’t trade a minute of it. I’m glad that Emily and Ed can show people that just because animals might have disabilities, doesn’t mean they aren’t perfectly lovable.
I love to see boas up and over 20 years old. U can see that big girl is fully mature by how big her head is. I have a 9ft hypo boa i just hope she makes it 20 plus years.
I love how Emily is starting to look more and more like a zoo keeper as time goes on and as the zoo gets completed. She's equipped with her utility belt with tools and a walkie-talkie sticking out while carrying a bunch of random animals! I also love Ed's high-pitched talking-to-a-baby kind of voice when he said, "He's using his cave!"
Same I got a corn snake a few weeks ago actually, his name is Gizmo he is a lavder morph he is also a baby and I love him he is the sweetest darn cornsnake ever ❤ 🥺
Once everything is open and settled I really hope you guy consider putting a virtual tour (like they do for houses and cars) I would totally pay to virtually walk through the zoo and into each enclosure (which is something we can’t do in person 😉). I live in PA and don’t think I will ever be able to make it out to your facility.
Emily and Ed being happy because Ally was climbing the rock has the same energy as parents happy when their kids go on a slide Also, I was missing seeing the frogs so much. I love them 😭❤️
It is lovely to get a peek at the zoo for us folk who will never be able to get to it. Also nice to see the frogs, they are always so unexpectedly charismatic
I'm so glad you're doing name tags and info for the reptiles with abnormalities, but I would also love to see the same for the 'normal' reptiles as well! There is nothing I like more than learning not just about the species of animal, but that exact animal in particular. Every individual of a species is different, and that's what makes places like zoos special, because unlike museums that have replica examples of the animals for demonstrative purposes, zoos have individual animals with their own stories.
They have fun facts on the animals' signs! You've probably seen since it's been a year, but the fun facts can be about the species or the individual iirc
I live in West Virginia and can't see myself making a trip to visit your zoo and store as awesome as I think they are... So I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate any updates you show off the animals you've put in the zoo and day to day life of the goings on in the zoo and store. I'd so much love to visit but she and health keep me close to home. Anyway. Thanks for all you do.
So awesome guys! I’m a vet assistant at an exotic vet clinic and I always have to give owners husbandry talks but you guys are the perfect example of how great enclosures are supposed to look!
This may have had some of the best animal voice text edits yet! The african bullfrog at my local zoo had to put a sign on the enclosure explaining that he is in fact real, and alive since he aestivates for such long periods of time. People would see him in the same position ,and spot over multiple visits, and thought he was a statue!
@@Frankenzebra true, but don't animagi just have the normal traits of the animal? i don't know if it would suddenly grow eyelids lol. but- he was also bred in captivity, and it means he would've been in a cage all his life and also a snake all his life. I'm now imagining a small snake at a zoo suddenly morphing into a toddler and panic ensuing lmao
While I am glad to see these guys moved into the zoo, I thought for sure Rex’s move would’ve been included! Hope you guys received her glass in time for grand opening.
So happy you have signs for the special needs animals. I was genuinely worried that someone might come in and see them and assume that you were causing harm to the animals and report you. Obviously we know what incredible work you do for these animals but not everyone is so understanding and aware.
10:50 I think she might be strong and smart enough to use one of those feeding balls that drop foot if you roll them. Just make sure the ball is big enough that she cant swallow the ball itself.
I have to mirror Alex's sentiment about Ally, for Jupiter. It's so great to see her in her awesome new enclosure, and I'm so thankful she has a wonderful home now with you folks! Can't wait to come visit her again
Yay! I love you guys. I'm so happy for you. And so proud of you. I've watched you grow and learned from you over the past few years and I'm just so totally stoked that you've accomplished so much and have such a great future ahead educating people and helping animals. Thank you so much for bringing me along on the adventure.
Love how you realize you have a lot of older animals ❤ Most people get rid of there older animals because there not able to breed them anymore. So it's amazing having a lot of elderly reptiles ,I also have some old reptiles and there just as amazing
I only just discovered this channel this week and have been consuming so many of your videos all out of order, so I see all of the animals at different phases in their lives, so this video made me so happy to see them getting lively homes. You take such great care of them all. This channel especially gave me a soft spot for Tegu, because Ali is just the best.
As an Aussie I love seeing your woma and blackhead thriving and I can’t wait for your jungle carpet to go on display! I have a nearly 4 year old albino Darwin carpet and they have so much personality.
@@Jonathan-ug9yu Thx :-) I've already sneaked - of course XD I just can't wait of her moving. I guess it will be a very emotional video, her leaving their house after all these years.
My entire family is scared of snakes and reptiles but i love them hopefully the snake discovery zoo is open next year by my birthday because I've been telling my mom about it and she said would put her fear aside and take me their for my 18th birthday 😊
I saw it and had to watch it since I don't have class at the moment. I so wanna go there from Tennessee but I have to convince my mom to drive me. I wish we got to see the failed jump with the frog. Pff, all three frogs. Ally is just taking her time
I think it would be cool to give each of the animals a name tag, not just the special needs ones! I know little kids get super engaged when they know the animal's name. Like "Hi, my name is Inky! I'm very shy, but I love food!"
Ed and Emily, Thank you so much for all of the zoo updates for the people that can not travel right now. You are so loved all around the world. Sending love from Ohio ❤🐍🐊🐸🦜🐢🦎❤
You guys always brighten my day! I love watching your channel and learning so much from you guys. Hope to make my way to the zoo at some point in the near future! Happy Friday and thank you for posting!!
I love those special-needs signs! My local zoo had a blind owl when I was a kid and it was really cool to learn about him and different ways to help specials-needs animals. It always stuck with me, and now as an adult I’ve been able to help special-needs animals and rescues myself! 💜
Emily I have been watching your channel since 2019. One of the highlights of my day is seeing updates like this, so happy for you and Ed. Thank you for continuing to educate the public. 🌻💜
The fact that Emily and Ed know how to take care of and protect creatures with conditions that could end up with them dying in the wild makes me so happy. I'm glad that there are atleast some people who know that reptiles are not dangerous unless you provoke them. Also my dad said that if you make quick movements a snake would attack you, as they hunt by sensing movement. He told me to move slowly and gently when handling snakes. Please act slowly and carefuly when you are with your snakes.
I'm planning on a road trip to the zoo next summer. My favourite animals currently are Alaska and Taco. I love them all but these two for sure are on my bucket list to see in person. Thanks for another great video!
Emily and Ed I just love your videos and specially love the Zoo you have a way to communicate and express yourself that it make me wanna watch your videos and then there's your animals that I can see how much you and Ed love them and most important is when I see the faces of the little kids and that big smile they have when there with you and the animals, like Luke how excited and happy he was the day he was going to meat you and Ed it was priceless the look on his face thank you for everything you do for the people and your subscriber's.
I think Janet would be so proud to see how far snake discovery has come. First it being you guys bringing a few animals to shows, a UA-cam channel, and now an amazing zoo with so many wonderful animals ❤️😍
My 2 year old watched this with me, and when she saw the close up of an enclosure she'd go "outside!" I think that's a pretty good compliment on an enclosure lol
I love each new peek into your zoo....I hope I can get a video guided tour at some point....imagine paying for a personal video tour if you can not get there in person...I am hoping they will find a way to accommodate that service and yes I would be willing to pay a fee for a personal video tour of Snake Discovery...Yeah Snake Discovery, Emily , Ed , and crew!
YAYY! Love the procress you are making and giving animals a safe place to be i get so exited when u post. Mayby i ca someday visit you. I live in estonia thats right on top of latvia. So i guess Hello! from estonia. (Ps. Say hi from ur country i wanna see how many people in diffrent countrys reply)
Emily made a few videos about brumation. Since they put only the breeding animals in brumation and most of them (if not all) are in the back of the facility, the zoo itself wouldn't be that empty. Here's part 1 of the brumation series where Emily explains in detail if, when and how they brumate their animals ua-cam.com/video/AGzr80Gn1V4/v-deo.html
Argentine Tegus do brumate, but they don't breed Ally, so she won't be brumated. Since you only brumate snakes that you plan to breed, it's likely they have chosen specimens they don't intend to breed at this time of the species they breed a lot of (bullsnakes/hognoses). That way when its time for brumation, there is only 1 or 2 enclosures they have to remove of the species where they only have one pair, like the foxsnakes. Other species they have that they breed don't need brumation, like the vietnamese blue beauties.
@@turtle150 kinda like hibernation, the way I understand it. You lower the temperature of their surroundings during winter to simulate what it would be like in the wild. I don’t know how it relates to breeding, but it does somehow
3:53 I noticed that on the information sign you have pyxicephalus edulis as the scientific name of your African Bull Frog which is actually the scientific name of the lesser bullfrog. Pyxicephalus adspersus is the true scientific name of the African Bullfrog I know this because i have a female of my own.
I'm so gladd with all these video's. I live in the Netherlands, so sadly I can't just come to it myself. But the video's still give you a close look. And it always feels special. I wish I could see it in real life.
I will at some point plan an entire vacation near where you guys are just to get an opportunity to see your awesome new zoo. Maybe I'll make it a road trip style tour of all the reptile facilities I want to go to, ending at an expo fairly close to my own home so I can come back with some new friends. Just gotta wait until I can actually afford it. You guys rock, keep up the good work!
I'd hope to one day travel from Australia to USA and your zoo is on my list of places I want to visit. I wish I could see all the animals you have here on youtube, but I understand you have to leave a few secrets so that people get a surprise when visiting. Thank you for sharing your animals with us
I highly recommend you put a large water bowl/pond in for those Dumpy's. I have two that I have had for at least 6 years and they LOVE to sit in the water sometimes... My fat one does anyway but I have seen the other one in there too. I am pretty sure they won't breed or anything. I am pretty sure that the conditions have to be just right! 👌
I love seeing the animals moved into the zoo. I wish I could come there and see all the reptiles and amphibians but sadly I can't being in India. These videos help me catch up so thanks! for all the wonderful videos emily and ed

I have to mirror Alex's sentiment about Ally, for Jupiter. It's so great to see her in her awesome new enclosure, and I'm so thankful she has a wonderful home now with you folks! Can't wait to come visit her again
Yay! I love you guys. I'm so happy for you. And so proud of you. I've watched you grow and learned from you over the past few years and I'm just so totally stoked that you've accomplished so much and have such a great future ahead educating people and helping animals. Thank you so much for bringing me along on the adventure.
Awe how Jupiter just went to say hi to Ed and rested her head on his hand! So cute!
Love how you realize you have a lot of older animals ❤
Most people get rid of there older animals because there not able to breed them anymore.
So it's amazing having a lot of elderly reptiles ,I also have some old reptiles and there just as amazing
They should do a ally egg hunt where every feeding day they host it and let the kids and people watch her hunt and find her food that would be fun
Maybe not every single one because I think it would be stressfull for her, but that's a good idea!
I only just discovered this channel this week and have been consuming so many of your videos all out of order, so I see all of the animals at different phases in their lives, so this video made me so happy to see them getting lively homes. You take such great care of them all. This channel especially gave me a soft spot for Tegu, because Ali is just the best.
I loved seeing Ally in her new home. She is hands down my favorite of your animals. A close second will be Cheyenne and Rex.
As an Aussie I love seeing your woma and blackhead thriving and I can’t wait for your jungle carpet to go on display! I have a nearly 4 year old albino Darwin carpet and they have so much personality.
Ahhh I love these Updates so much!! Please show us Rex‘ moving next. Please please please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You can get a sneak peek over at Dave's channel if you want Rex's enclosure spoiled before Ed n Emily show it
@@Jonathan-ug9yu Thx :-) I've already sneaked - of course XD I just can't wait of her moving. I guess it will be a very emotional video, her leaving their house after all these years.
She’s getting a whole video to herself sometime someone said
I love watching Ed and Emily interact with their animals, they give them so much love and attention.
I love Peanut. Always happy to see him. Those tree frogs were hilarious.
My entire family is scared of snakes and reptiles but i love them hopefully the snake discovery zoo is open next year by my birthday because I've been telling my mom about it and she said would put her fear aside and take me their for my 18th birthday 😊
Congrats!
Love how you give the older and special needs reptiles an amazing life. Also all the important information you share about reptile care.
I saw it and had to watch it since I don't have class at the moment. I so wanna go there from Tennessee but I have to convince my mom to drive me. I wish we got to see the failed jump with the frog. Pff, all three frogs. Ally is just taking her time
I think it would be cool to give each of the animals a name tag, not just the special needs ones! I know little kids get super engaged when they know the animal's name. Like "Hi, my name is Inky! I'm very shy, but I love food!"
I am really proud of how well you manage to look after the animals so well and you have sooooooo many
Ed and Emily, Thank you so much for all of the zoo updates for the people that can not travel right now. You are so loved all around the world. Sending love from Ohio ❤🐍🐊🐸🦜🐢🦎❤
AHHH this is so exciting!! Can’t wait to come back and see all the enclosures filled!
You guys always brighten my day! I love watching your channel and learning so much from you guys. Hope to make my way to the zoo at some point in the near future! Happy Friday and thank you for posting!!
I love those special-needs signs! My local zoo had a blind owl when I was a kid and it was really cool to learn about him and different ways to help specials-needs animals. It always stuck with me, and now as an adult I’ve been able to help special-needs animals and rescues myself! 💜
Rest in peace Jupiter
Ahhhh!!! I can’t wait to visit the zoo from Colorado 💚💚
It's so cool seeing another tank pet missing eyes. I have a one eyed green tree frog and it's nice to see others thrive.
Emily I have been watching your channel since 2019. One of the highlights of my day is seeing updates like this, so happy for you and Ed. Thank you for continuing to educate the public. 🌻💜
I always thought snakes and reptiles were really scary, but thanks to you guys, I know a lot more about them and I think their awesome!!
When I was in year oneI had no friends until when I saw your UA-cam channel It’s made me had a passion of animals
This is getting way out of hand, last night I had a dream of meeting a baby albino hog nose, I think I’m too addicted to your videos
😂
I love how normal it is for the video to start with Emily carrying a snake that looks 3 times her size
Rip Jupiter 😢😭😭😭
I love you both and the amazing work that went into building the zoo
They look like they're going to be so happy! You all did such a great job setting up their enclosures!
Love the QR code’s for special needs animals. Such a great idea!
AHHHH! I'm so excited! Who else has been waiting for this?!
mee!! Cant wait until Rex his video!
I'm so happy for your success. You both deserve it. Passionate and lovely people.
YAAAY I love these updates :). Also how is there a dislike. It must be Hypno who wanted revenge for the humiliation or Inky ^-^
🤣🤣🤣 YES
Cant wait for when Rex moves in!
DITTO
OMG IT HAPPENED!
Finally! Much love from Argentina ❤❤
The fact that Emily and Ed know how to take care of and protect creatures with conditions that could end up with them dying in the wild makes me so happy. I'm glad that there are atleast some people who know that reptiles are not dangerous unless you provoke them. Also my dad said that if you make quick movements a snake would attack you, as they hunt by sensing movement. He told me to move slowly and gently when handling snakes. Please act slowly and carefuly when you are with your snakes.
AAAnd its all coming together! Super happy for you guys!
Your habitats looks amazing well done to you both for all the hard work, I can't wait to see rex take her first swim when she moves in xx
It’s weird to think that it’s been 2 years since the grand opening😢 ❤❤
So fun to finally see them all moving into their spaces! So happy for all of you!
i adore moody and missed seeing him so it's great to see how well he's doing
R.I.P Jupiter. Fly high
2:42 all hail the hYmPnO tOaD
It's so exciting!! It looks like a real finished zoo now!! 😊 You guys have done such an amazing job!! Thank you for sharing this journey with us! 💚
I love all the updates that you do I can’t wait to go to the zoo
I'm planning on a road trip to the zoo next summer. My favourite animals currently are Alaska and Taco. I love them all but these two for sure are on my bucket list to see in person. Thanks for another great video!
Emily wanted a snake skin belt but didn't want to harm a snake to get it so she just grabbed Jupiter, LOL!
Emily and Ed I just love your videos and specially love the Zoo you have a way to communicate and express yourself that it make me wanna watch your videos and then there's your animals that I can see how much you and Ed love them and most important is when I see the faces of the little kids and that big smile they have when there with you and the animals, like Luke how excited and happy he was the day he was going to meat you and Ed it was priceless the look on his face thank you for everything you do for the people and your subscriber's.
Crazy that Jupiter is as old as me!! She’s got such a sweet face (though most boas & pythons do)
The thought that you have put into your zoo is amazing, such as the scan bit so that you can watch a video about the animals
I think Janet would be so proud to see how far snake discovery has come. First it being you guys bringing a few animals to shows, a UA-cam channel, and now an amazing zoo with so many wonderful animals ❤️😍
My 2 year old watched this with me, and when she saw the close up of an enclosure she'd go "outside!" I think that's a pretty good compliment on an enclosure lol
You did my QR code idea!!! I’m so excited for y’all!!! 😁😁
I love each new peek into your zoo....I hope I can get a video guided tour at some point....imagine paying for a personal video tour if you can not get there in person...I am hoping they will find a way to accommodate that service and yes I would be willing to pay a fee for a personal video tour of Snake Discovery...Yeah Snake Discovery, Emily , Ed , and crew!
YAYY! Love the procress you are making and giving animals a safe place to be i get so exited when u post. Mayby i ca someday visit you. I live in estonia thats right on top of latvia. So i guess Hello! from estonia. (Ps. Say hi from ur country i wanna see how many people in diffrent countrys reply)
You are both so caring and kind, it’s good to see people loving animals, you restore my faith in mankind! 🐍🐍🐍
Does Ally brumate? What happens for the animals in the zoo who would normally go into brumation for part of the year?
Emily made a few videos about brumation. Since they put only the breeding animals in brumation and most of them (if not all) are in the back of the facility, the zoo itself wouldn't be that empty.
Here's part 1 of the brumation series where Emily explains in detail if, when and how they brumate their animals
ua-cam.com/video/AGzr80Gn1V4/v-deo.html
Argentine Tegus do brumate, but they don't breed Ally, so she won't be brumated. Since you only brumate snakes that you plan to breed, it's likely they have chosen specimens they don't intend to breed at this time of the species they breed a lot of (bullsnakes/hognoses). That way when its time for brumation, there is only 1 or 2 enclosures they have to remove of the species where they only have one pair, like the foxsnakes. Other species they have that they breed don't need brumation, like the vietnamese blue beauties.
what does brumating mean?? I googled it but the way it was being used didn't make sense to me in the context the definition is in
@@turtle150 it’s a sort of sleep.
@@turtle150 kinda like hibernation, the way I understand it. You lower the temperature of their surroundings during winter to simulate what it would be like in the wild. I don’t know how it relates to breeding, but it does somehow
Yay! Thanks for the captions that stay on the screen longer! I appreciate that. 😊
3:53 I noticed that on the information sign you have pyxicephalus edulis as the scientific name of your African Bull Frog which is actually the scientific name of the lesser bullfrog. Pyxicephalus adspersus is the true scientific name of the African Bullfrog I know this because i have a female of my own.
Oh no! Hopefully they can get a background-matching sticker with the correct name to put over it so they don’t have to have the entire sign redone…
It seemed like Jupiter was smiling when she got moved:)
Jupiter’s camera kisses tho 🥰
I'm so gladd with all these video's. I live in the Netherlands, so sadly I can't just come to it myself. But the video's still give you a close look. And it always feels special. I wish I could see it in real life.
Rip Jupiter, he died, sad at a doctor🕊️😭😭😭😭😭
I will at some point plan an entire vacation near where you guys are just to get an opportunity to see your awesome new zoo. Maybe I'll make it a road trip style tour of all the reptile facilities I want to go to, ending at an expo fairly close to my own home so I can come back with some new friends. Just gotta wait until I can actually afford it. You guys rock, keep up the good work!
Aweee I'm so happy for them!!! ✨❤️
I'd hope to one day travel from Australia to USA and your zoo is on my list of places I want to visit. I wish I could see all the animals you have here on youtube, but I understand you have to leave a few secrets so that people get a surprise when visiting.
Thank you for sharing your animals with us
I highly recommend you put a large water bowl/pond in for those Dumpy's. I have two that I have had for at least 6 years and they LOVE to sit in the water sometimes... My fat one does anyway but I have seen the other one in there too. I am pretty sure they won't breed or anything. I am pretty sure that the conditions have to be just right! 👌
the frog looking at the camera at 6:29 is the beeeessssstttt
Wow! I'm so happy for you guys.
I love seeing the animals moved into the zoo. I wish I could come there and see all the reptiles and amphibians but sadly I can't being in India. These videos help me catch up so thanks! for all the wonderful videos emily and ed
