- Maurice Rodrigues is one of the founders of the Turtle Conservancy and one of the most committed private collectors when it comes to captive breeding. His beautiful backyard habitat is the epitome of conservation in a Northern climate. It's a true haven for turtles and tortoises from all over the world as well as a perfect place for us to get an education on some new animals coming to live at Kamp Kenan. All of this shows what is possible because of his hard work right here in New Jersey! Subscribe to Kamp Kenan► goo.gl/BecCMM Join KK Membership to get YT perks: / @kampkenan

I have a small 15 foot tall windmill hooked up to my well water pumps fresh water ever time wind blows works great.
This reminded me of the old camp kenan videos. In fact, I thought it was 4 years old, not 4 hours when I first looked at it 😂 Loved seeing the way others keep tortoises and turtles in different climates. His back yard is beautiful!!
Same!!
Love to hear it, Glad you enjoyed it!
Totally agree! 😊
Leave it to Kenan to sneak a SIENFELD quote into one of his videos. 😃😃
I was waiting for Kenan to start singing DEVO! Kenan is a wild-man.
I honestly respect and admire Kenan more for hating the cold. Temperature is my greatest enemy
Blandling turtles rock, theyre beautiful and badass living in temps that'll kill other turtles.
👍👍🤠
I’ve seen them in that Fishkill reservation that was mentioned on a herping expedition. There’s another breeding population near Hudson NY. Chris Leone (Garden State Tortoise) has a license and keeps several Blandings.
An appearance from Tom! I've been wondering when we'd see/hear ya again! Damn Covid making travel a pain!
Poor Kenan so cold he forgot how to talk😂...im from Atlantic City, gotta get ur shoulders under the water, you'll warm up...that natural habitat is absolutely beautiful
Thanks for the advice!😝
Some woolen panties...(?) Gotta protect those family jewels! Wonder if that dude knows he did a pee pee in the pond;
*Kenan;* “it just got a lot warmer!” 😂
What a amazing place
North Jersey -by the Delaware Water Gap is a very scenic area. Rolling hills and farmlands predominate in places like Belvedere & Mt Hope.
I can see that you are in my neck of the woods well let me say welcome to New Jersey.
Thanks!🤠
@@KampKenan your very welcome.

Such an amazing turtle haven in NJ!
Whomever was holding the camera on Mr. Kenan today has my vote!! Holy Moly such hot pics of Mr. Kenan!!!
Now Kenan that’s what you call dedication lol . 🥶
😂😂😂I just can’t! This was not only informative but hilarious. I love seeing the most natural of spaces made to keep the turtles and tortoises.
Thank you!!!!🤠
The fact that Maurice both looks and sounds like Dave Filoni makes giving Darth Maul a new boyfriend so much better! ❤️🖤❤️
Awesome place
Turtle heaven. That would be an amazing place just relax and watch them
My grandkids and I were laughing so hard at "it's cold". We live in CT. Been a very warm summer. He should visit in January lol.
Nj has been cool this summer. 70s at night. Mid 80 during the day
WOW!
Wow Amazing Place he has for the turtle love turtles so much epic kenan cannot wait top see them in your pond thanks
How deep is his pond? Wont it freeze solid in the winter?
Mr Rodrigues, your enclosures are beautiful as are your turtles and tortoises. Thank you so much for sharing animals to Kenan so that even folks like me in Tennessee can enjoy them via video and contribute to their support. People like you give me hope !
Our pleasure! Thank you very much!
Great video
Go Kenan, brave those 60 degree waters....lol don't come to the NW we got cold here too. Those turtles are amazing. love this beautiful NJ spot. thanks Maurice and Kenan!
👍👍👍👍🤠🙏
We live in wichita ks and sent a puppy to new jersey on a plane.5 or 6 years ago.they love her so much
🤠
Maurice's land is so open and exposed to public roads. How does he ensure security there? I would be constantly on edge!😮 xx💜🐢
this habitat is amazing with some of my favorites spotted,woods and blandings
Hey Tom. We’ve not seen/heard you in ages. Great to have you back.
Beautiful backyard
Very cool enclosure!
Cool additions to the kamp my friend!!
what a beautiful turtle habitat it is so neat looking :) i have never heard of a twist-neck turtle before :)
I once brought back two twist-necked hatchlings that I found in a market in Iquitos, Peru. They turned out to be a pair but they never successfully bred although the male certainly tried. Maybe the female knew he was her brother. I kept them for ten years before I gave them away.
Hi Kenan You were so brave to going that cold water. You did a good search for that male turtle. I hope that he finds it before you have to go back to a
Florida. Those turtles that he gave you, will
Jesus i first thought there was a mad man in that thumbnail
Ha🤠
Love those last ones from Brazil!! Can I have them lol
Here in Australia we call that spanner water. 😂
That habitat is incredible!! Did you find the male turtle that was playing hid and seek with you? I can't wait for the release videos with the new turtles and tortoises.
Yes we did squeakatu!
Kenan , I hate the cold and I live in North East England 😂 perhaps I should move !
Just beautiful ❤ one of my favourite videos now
Damn, Kenan! I am with you on that cold!!
Sound felt like water in my ears
Thanks Kenan and Maurice!
My 11 year old granddaughter lives with me and she found a little blandings turtle I live in Wisconsin and have never seen one before but I looked it up it was beautiful she wanted to keep it but I think it said they are protected I am not sure can someone tell me I know Kenan said yes where they are but does that include Wisconsin
They are protected in the entirety of their range. Never take any turtles out of their habitat, it’s illegal in most places and they often fail to thrive.
@@davidvento5481 thank you very much David I appreciate that, my granddaughter started crying and I explained to her how it's not good for the turtle and it might even die she wasn't real happy but understood.
@@juliaboeck8110
There are lots of turtle breeders around these days so you can buy most turtle/tortoise species (except those endangered ones) at very reasonable prices. If you have the space Kenan has baby Sulcatas -aka; Spur thighs for sale (see his last live stream or past vids) but they do get huge. He also has a few Cherry Heads & Red Foots available which stay smaller and make good pets. Smaller still are Herman’s Tortoises, all these make excellent pets, are totally legal and you won’t wind up with a sick turtle (and huge vet bills!)
My pleasure to be of help.
Kenan was cutting some serious glass in the pond 🥶
Kenan is the type of goofy i need in my life😂
I agree... good for my mental health !
Lmao 😂 keeping it 💯💯🐢 the pool is hot in Dallas lol excellent video!
As a mom of two maps, it's nice to see them on a Kenan vid!
can't wait to see the next video kenan he has some sweet turtles
Mother Earth creatures are so beautiful!! ❤❤❤❤
Hi Kenan how are you doing today
Wish I could have more then 1 pet I would love to set up an area with a small fall and creek to a small pond in my backyard. So I can have fish and turtles set up in it. Of course I would have to set up a few large tanks for the winter months cause it snows here.
Man that intro was a blast from the past! miss the old camp kenan days lol
New Turtles are always awesome. Great they get to be outside tear round in Florida
The mega project would be turning the big pond into an aquascape ecosystem... not sure how doable that is mind you.
That's the dream!
Great video Mr. Kenan!! Thank you Matty for giving us Mr. Kenan!!!😍😍
Beautiful
How's that second innie?😂😂 Did you ever recover 😂😂😂💀
Yeah they did. I felt the tremors here 60 miles away in NYC when they descended!
😂
Haha here goes Kenan, waa waa😅 freezing the webos 🥚 🥚😆🤣
At the start of the video "we're also going to get some other turtles"
*me shouting at the screen* "please be hermanns!!!" Kenan please get some hermanns back in the Kamp, I know you got a lot going on but surely you've got room for a few 😉 they are so commonly kept as pets and people could really benefit from you teaching them how to properly keep them! Great content as always and great to see you catching up with old friends 👏😅
You make the best videos Kenan. Thanks for the great content and putting hard work in your vids
Not used to seeing people with all these animals on UA-cam so close to a public road. Lol was strange hearing the cars drive by.
We have Map turtles in MN so it doesn't surprise me that they do fine there.
There are Blandings turtles in Michigan too! I've actually seen 2 near me. Beautiful turtles!
Great video 🐢
We have wild sliders all over england my town has some few towns down has some they cant successfully breed though but I'm sure theres the odd success😂
We have a couple in the local pond up near Manchester
@@ThePollaton lichfield has some in there ponds in the centre they survive winter buy to cold to breath
I heard there were wild (breeding) populations of Eastern Box Turtles in forests of the UK. That’s unsubstantiated by my friends there but I heard it from a local whose fairly knowledgeable. The winter temps are milder there than here in the NY tri-state region so with food & water sources I can easily see them living & breeding successfully there. Because of their beautiful, highly variable colors & great temperaments I know people are/were paying crazy amounts for Eastern “Boxies” in Europe. They are very common within their range here in the US.
@@davidvento5481 never heard or seen of them over here but who knows. If there were breeding pairs released 🤷♀️
We got blandings even in Ontario! Amazing species.
Turtles are a little bit more your speed
🤠
Entertaining video, thanks for the laughs :)
🍒=🏆 Golden balls award🟡🟡 🤪🤣🤣🤣
At least it didn't make you a soprano....😏
Is there a youtube award for hottest wet animal tuber? Kenan wins! Props to your wife. Lucky lady she is. 😮 😊
Lol Kennan is just like me when it comes to cold weather. I was born in Tampa but now live in Kentucky. I freeze here and I wish I could move to Florida. As soon as I get my kidney transplant, I’ll probably consider moving to Florida. I just ain’t comfortable changing doctors and stuff right now. I can wear a hoodie and long pants in the 80’s.
Gotta know……did you get the Hamiltoni?????
🐢❤️🐢
Yes we did Lori!
I think down south like near Florida and Lusanna I think you can find the Algatator snapped turtle are they bigger then the common snapped turtles .
13:44😂😂😂
❤
A list of animals I could keep healthy outside year round locally where I live:
Bison
Husky
Raven
Uh....
Hm. Yeah thats probably about it.
Holy cow I'm from the Fishkill area of NY 😮
They aren’t far from Innisfree, but you’ll need hip waders to get to them!
Was that Tom behind the camera?
i thought i heard him say Tom
Tom hasn't been in a video in so long! good to see him behind the camera again
Yep, it was me. So cool to catch up with Maurice again! - Tom
Look Mae 2 navals😂😂😂😂 new meaning to shrinkage 😂😂😂😂
👍👍👍❤❤❤🐢🐢🐢
👍🤠
On my way need to I don't like the cold water either
awesome video! is that a liner pond?
obligatory comment (for the algorithm) due to the fact that Kenan is genuine enough to mention... the testicular shrinkage
The name "chillonians" is such a pleasure to know and say.
Thanks Kenan 🤠🗯️"hey little dude" 🐢
I thought you were visiting Garden State Tortoise.
What are those tiel tubs normally used for ? Would love to get some for my baby torts
The Red Foot Tortoises (bred in PA) look like they have varying degrees of MBD evidenced by the pyramiding of their shells. This is the result of a lack of vit D. and/or poor diet. They will no doubt benefit from being in Florida.
💜💚🥰😍💚💜
Does he leave the Japanese wood turtles in the pond all year long?
You can drop a red foot off with me and Eliza in Arkansas! ❤
Putting those with the smooth fronts seems like a mistake.
i was wrong
Man, you guys need some wireless mics.... Great video though!
Good lord, is your man's property just open to the road?!
I don’t believe I can own Indian spotted turtles in Pa . Or I can purchase captive bred from a pa breeder . Any way I love them but probably will never have one
*Kamp Kenan* ✋ I have a few questions 😅if you don't mind spending a few moments of your time answering them..
We know you have a little bit of color blindness with your retinas..
But besides that..
(1) when it comes to the overall health of the turtles.. what is your stance on hyper-melanistic, dominant-melanistic, albino, and leustic turtles?
I understand that natural occuring and natural reoccurring morphs aren't mutually exclusive in the wild(they happen quite often) .. like with Buttercup 😉
(2) From your experience are their diets any different from regular cherry heads within their own genius? I haven't seen any white or albinos cherry head turtles at the Kamp except for the babies(but none from my 30 minute window of view you for years now, have I seen you keep one or two within the colony) not that 😅 its an issue or problem I've just never seen one Grow up fully at the residence.. what's your stance of keeping one back?
(3) I saw the plastron of the first cherry/red foot turtle you pick up: 😊looks very healthy to me, but you pointed how dark its under belly is, which you probably haven't had much experience owning one like that. What are the chances of a cherry head or red-foot turtle having a darker melanistic quality? I know it's probably seen more often in breeding circles and of courses places like ReptiCon. I would 💬💬💬🤔 think in private collections there are probably breeding pairs..
(4) last question: 😅✋
Is it more difficult owning an albino or white leustic turtle? Than a regular of its kind. I would suspect it's more "photo-sensitive" to uv or uvb cause of its lighter or lack of melatonin/melanin in its blood stream. I like to know your take on this
South Jersey is the worst place for turtles and there r the most species and largest. One night walking my dog I saw 13 box turtles hit by cars in less than a 2 mile span.
☹️
Not to mention Easter spotted. I have pics of some of the biggest box turtles and other species including an American snapping turtle over 43 pounds while fishing
