On the topic of snail weddings, I work with kids, and over winter break these two kids built a little habitat and then put two snails inside “so they can get married and have babies!” And that’s the story of how I had to explain snail marriage to two parents at pickup that day 😅
My cousin and I used to build snail hotels with empty gardening pots and whatever else we could find in my uncle's yard. It never occured to us that maybe the snails weren't as into it as we were and we ended up very disappointed every time when they were all gone the next morning and hasn't even laid any eggs 😅😂
Ed totally channeled his inner cat with pushing that habitat off the table lol😂. And I think that super small dark container could work for egg incubating lol.
I got the same probe kit off amazon from some random seller, the small ones are not blunted on the end, and obviously they would know not to use sharp instruments to sex their snakes, but for anyone considering small probes, please don't use them if they do not have blunted/rounded tips or you can perforate the snakes cloaca and cause damage and potentially infection. Please use caution and ensure safe practices when identifying what sex your reptiles are. Preferably have a professional do so, or teach you how to do it, because you can hurt your reptiles quite easily if you don't know what you're doing.
Ed is looking really good! Seeing how much he’s grown with being more comfortable on camera makes me so happy. It’s been a joy to watch your videos and how goofy you guys both are along with how passionate you both are with your company. ❤
Everything I've heard about Teemu suggests that everything wrong with Wish is wrong tenfold with Teemu. It's apparently really abusive towards its sellers, forcing them to use unsustainable prices and allowing new sellers to just copy old sellers listings, all their photos, all their descriptions, everything, and just-- replace them. No respect of copyright or intellectual property. And then the new guys who usurped and ran the old guys out of business will send you a completely different product that isn't in the pictures at all.
i bought from there one (1) time and surprisingly all my items were as ordered and fine, admittedly cheap but i knew what i was getting into. but i was sus starting out and am still sus to this day so i just deleted it. hopefully i can explain to my sister that buying baby stuff off of there probably would be better off somewhere else
Fair warning, I would be extremely careful buying things on Temu. It's been confirmed that they have extremely shady, and even sometimes straight up illegal business practices. Things like: selling your personal data on the black market or ripping off small businesses that don't have the finances to do anything about it. But most notably is the fact that they intentionally lose money on each order so that they can keep their prices so low. This is at the expense of the vendor, not Temu. Some sellers have anonymously reported that they make no money selling their stuff on Temu and are just trying to get into the U.S. market. I don't want to be a wet blanket. And by no means do I want to shame anyone for buying things off the site. I just thought you should know.
Every company steals your data... If you want to stay safe... never buy anything from anywhere. Do not single out Temu. That is misleading and not accurate and spreads misinformation.
I refuse to use Temu. My husband has decided to get stuff from them against my wishes. I am morally against them because there is no way the makers are getting paid.
Temu has not been confirmed shady, except by Amazon I use the site A LOT, it’s not always great quality but the return policy is fantastic Hit and Miss? Yes. Shady, absolutely NOT As to claims on here about workers not being paid enough, that might be true, but the same applies to ANY retailer, it depends on where they source their stock
i would imagine temu is just another wish or alibaba, if it's in/from asia, there's a chance that down the line it's all the same company, it just change name/face whenever one get in trouble and pretend to be another.
My husband and I both lost our jobs today (same place) and I really needed something to cheer me up. Thank you Ed and Emily for the years of smiles you've given me.
Oh no. That is awful and so stressful. Hoping new jobs, better ones are right around the corner for you both. (They are). Best wishes from Orlando!! 💙💙💙
That sucks. I hope you guys can take a couple days to just be and maybe spend some time together doing things you both enjoy. Wishing you luck with finding something new that works well for you. You got this.
Ed’s growth in front of the camera has never been more obvious, I think, than in this video. Look at the power couple go. Power couple: “Let’s get a divorce and remarried so we can have a snail wedding!” “You really want a divorce? I mean… I’ll leave.” 😆😆😆😆😆
That's one thing I love from Temu, the LED neon type lights are AMAZING!!!! The breeding box makes me think, since it says crawling, that it's for insects. You can definitely find some good things on Temu but you really do have to read the reviews!!
On the note of the enclosure you guys bought, the original design was known as an isopod mansion, and was sold by the company microvarium, since then the design has been popping up in a lot of different places. also, the locks do work if you put your hand in the enclosure and push the wall and the side of the lid together
This has been brought up before and they use 3d printed hides for bb bins. I'm not sure if they ever epoxied them, bc if they're just as is, with how much use those bins get, I'm not sure that's really a significant worry?
I guess one could spray/brush them with some coating... I've seen paint that is meant to be used to coat small kids toys/furniture and I've also seen food safe paints... So those could work...
@@StonedtotheBones13 for a frog thing I'd be more worried than a snake, and I would toss any 3d printed stuff if any sick animals are in the enclosure with it
Epoxy or enamel (food safe) coating of prints is how they are made water tight and safe for animals, again I don't know if they use raw prints for their hides but I try to point out the finishing steps for safety for critters on anything I find concerning it
I don't recommend buying things off of Temu. Jaclyn Glenn (spelling?) did a lot of research and figured out it's a horrible company that's causing a lot of harm. I highly recommend her video. It's very informative.
yes thats why Snake Discovery is showing the products and actual size to show people that its not a good idea to buy off a mass produced site that sells all sorts of things, rather then a specific area of expertise of the product in this case Reptile produts...

This was hilarious! 😆 Also shows the level of 'quality' available on Temu. Honestly, if you still want to buy from them after seeing these, you get what you deserve.
You could cover the holes on that "lizard breeding box" and put eggs in it if you run out of egg boxes during breeding season. Oh, I love the chameleon light too!
Considering that they try to reuse and recycle whenever they can, that seems like a good way to use the boxes they got in the video! They could use the larger one to store the baby noodles when cutting eggs open since the little ones love to try and escape!
Jokes aside, I really hope whatever card you bought stuff from temu on was a throwaway cause temu has been caught stealing credit card details and selling them
I wont judge anyone for buying cheap things on Temu. But i just cant bring myself to. In China, some products are made with forced labor, such as by the Uyghur people. Temu was found not to even pretend that it tries to keep such products off its platform. Things like this that are so cheap i can only imagine were not made ethically.
@@eileenmcdonald1599 There are definitely women who are forced into the sex trades in America (many of whom are then shipped out of the country) but it is highly doubtful that there is WIDE-SPREAD forced labor in the US. I’ve seen documentaries about meat processing plants that occasionally employee young children, but it’s not something that happens often. That is definitely not the case in China. Although it is very difficult to get information out of China due to the political environment, there have been multiple reports about laborers who travel to China for a job, but end up basically working in a forced-laborlike situation.
Regarding the toilet: if it's been 3D printed from filament it may be problematic. A lot of basic FDM printed objects are porous, and water will seep through them; and bacteria love them. But they're also impossible to sterilise as heating them up to dishwasher temperatures will cause them to deform and stop working (inasmuch as a toy toilet ever works...). So they're pretty much a cleanliness disaster waiting to happen. You might be able to get some mileage out of it by filling it with rocks and putting it an aquarium, and using it as a biofilm substrate, but I wouldn't want to use it anywhere where it needs to be kept clean.
Emily are you okay? It’s the middle of the night 😂 Edit: yes, I know that timezones exist. I also happen to know that it was about 2 am in Emily and ed’s timezone when this video was posted
I've always thought the reason for the steepness of some ramped water bowls is so that you can do sub straight up most of it and like....have it partly buried
Its funny because there is a massive e commerce app in china called pin duoduo and Temu i believe is Pin duoduo's launch into north america so when you read some of these item descriptions its literally directly translated in Chinese, for example crested geckos in chinese literally translates to ciliary horn gecko and leopard geckos i dont know why but they call them palace guards or hand crafts LOL
Chinese person, pinduoduo and Temu are I believe the less commonly used ones compared to Taobao and Xianyu. Taobao and Xianyu are super trustworthy most of the time, ping duoduo has less items (me when trying to buy isopods). I think it’s funny how some of the names are so awfully translated though, I come across lot of poor translations when scrolling on xianyu to find monsteras edit : I don’t actually see temu in China? Like, ever? I think it’s an outside China thing ehhh, then again my niche of stuff I buy is really small so idk
there's an app in brazil called shoppee that I suspect is from the same company as temu. It's a shopping app that sells cheap chinese and national products with an orange color scheme. At least shoppee is decent as nowadays it's mosty used by national small businesses selling at cheap but reasonable prices
I suppose the "explosion proof" cage thing could be used to transport geckos and other small lizards temporarily (like if you're travelling to hand the animal over to someone else). It's bigger than the seller cups at expos, I'll give it that. Permanently tho it would have to be for insects.
I mean the explosion proof box wouldn’t be a good home. But maybe a carry case? Like to the vets, or taking it home when you first get it. If it is explosion proof it has to be car crash safe right?
I bought that exact mister off amazon when trying to set up my snake's enclosure on a budget. I had to hold the tubes in the machine everytime or they would detach and water would spray all over my room. Glad you guys didn't have that issue, but it was a recurring problem. As for longevity, the machine lasted about 6 months before the buttons stopped working altogether.
I bet those gloves would fail with my tempermental cat. You never know if she's going to be sweet or strike. She rarely gives warning through body language for some reason. She's an odd one though, but I love her anyway! ❤
I appreciate the positive energy and optimism that you always present, but in this review format I think it results in a promotional video that lacks important criticality. For example, what stuck out to me the most was the products presented that were “on sale” from high prices. I would feel confident in stating that these are a scam (were never intended to sell at the “full” price) but I understand that would be a strong claim to make in this video. I was just disappointed that you did not verbally question these at all. Often these are cheap copies of legitimate products, that will show images of the high quality item that the buyer will not receive. (possibly the case with the tong.) I’m not sure if you have background knowledge of Temu, and other commenters have mentioned other issues- but my criticism is that the video presented item quality as the only questionable factor. There is little to no accountability for these sellers and it’s important to make people aware that they are often deceitful, especially when products are claiming to be safe for animals. Like I said I am not suggesting you call any of your purchases scams, but please question and vocalize the possibility. I have not looked into the other claims about Temu but if you are considering making more of this content, it would be good to do so. Thank you for reading this feedback if you have. I love your videos.
I would absolutely LOVE to see more videos like this! I love where you just sit here talking to the camera, and best yet rating things, so we don’t have to waste money on something rediculous
This was a super fun video! I'd love to see this as a recurring segment that you guys do! 🎉 EDIT: Maybe going forward you could rank the items on an ongoing tier list.... it allows for more nuance in ranking. I also love Ed reading out the whole title of the product title/description!
I got that exact mister from Amazon a year back and it still works, surprisingly enough. It started to drip at the nozzle a few months in but that doesn't really bother me with my set up. I will say though, pretty much the first time I used it one of the tubes slid out of the pump and distributed water literally everywhere in a matter of seconds. Even though it never happened again, I only plug it in to mist while I stand next to it because I don't want a major water leakage happen in my absence. Definitely not for everyone, but if you are working with a really tight budget this gets the job done
To answer your question, I love these kinds of videos and would enjoy more of them for a good laugh and some education. Some of these things like the misting system would be great for a crested gecko or any other animal that needs to be misted more than once daily. (in fact I bought one for my crested gecko Falcon).
Pro-tip, there are no snake proof gloves. Unless you've got a suit of iron lying around. People have been bitten even through Midwest gloves. No one expects you to be able to grab adult snakes with impunity in those. (Just the baby stinkers you cant hook) I have double layer elk-hide cat gloves for work and have still been bit through. Granted, not as bad as if I werent wearing them. Ferals be cray!
if you told me 6 years ago when i started watching this channel that ed would burst onto camera with a bunch of temu boxes shouting "WOO" i would have called you insane
I mean yeah, but I've had some decent cheap things. Not ordered, but same idea. $4 headset from dollarama lasted me a whole year before there were *any* issues. I'd say that's pretty good for the price.
I have 2 of the mister systems in this video and I've been using them for over a year and they don't drip constantly and they work consistently, no problems here
The subject matter could be almost anything and I would watch because the style of this video is what had me rolling. The punch ins and editing GOT me. Also, as a long time viewer, I’m so proud of Ed’s camera growth!! Part of why this was so funny to me is your couple dynamic is VERY similar to my own!
I like how lion wasn’t even spelled wrong, Ed called it a loin and then corrected Emily for saying it right. This is why he’s gotta stay behind the camera
Ed's laugh at 1:35 made this entire video worth it 😂 I'm only 1:40 in but I just smiled so hard watching a video that it even shocked myself 🤣 There's something about the joy one receives by someone else's shock over their stupid purchase that tickles me pink 🤣😭
For a backup mister to have on hand just in case the good one breaks. I think this mister would be really great. Just confirm it works ok & then pack it away after a thorough drying. Replace whats in the filter too if you can. I'd love seeing more videos like this.
I wonder if Emily and Ed have seen the videos of people putting their tortoises on miniature skateboards and letting them zoom around. I'd love to see Sharon chasing round the zoo!
My theory is most of whats on temu is b grade stuff. Stuff that has slight imperfections or misshaps (such as a warped lid) that they can still sell for a bit of money.
“Do you want a divorce? Because I’ll leave” ED you can’t say these things 🤣

Loved Ed's little "now breed" when the turtles were put in the breeding box
When Emily said “you bought a toilet?” I died laughing.
I had my bank details stolen and used by temu to buy stuff so be careful using temu they are still being sued by another company
It could possibly hold a dark frog and have a decent amount of room and it looks like you could keep the humidity up
I love how excited Ed is in the vid.
Sharron just floating on top of the plastic box was delightfully silly. She was like a cat in a costume, just suddenly unable to move.
Can we just appreciate how polite Howie is to let hemself be put into that box.
I laughed so hard at Sharon's new home lol. The way you just lowered her over the tiny box had me rolling.
5:30 made me laugh absolutely way too loud specifically ed ill leave 🤣 😂 it was so nonchalant
I've always thought the reason for the steepness of some ramped water bowls is so that you can do sub straight up most of it and like....have it partly buried
Its funny because there is a massive e commerce app in china called pin duoduo and Temu i believe is Pin duoduo's launch into north america so when you read some of these item descriptions its literally directly translated in Chinese, for example crested geckos in chinese literally translates to ciliary horn gecko and leopard geckos i dont know why but they call them palace guards or hand crafts LOL
Chinese person, pinduoduo and Temu are I believe the less commonly used ones compared to Taobao and Xianyu. Taobao and Xianyu are super trustworthy most of the time, ping duoduo has less items (me when trying to buy isopods). I think it’s funny how some of the names are so awfully translated though, I come across lot of poor translations when scrolling on xianyu to find monsteras
edit : I don’t actually see temu in China? Like, ever? I think it’s an outside China thing ehhh, then again my niche of stuff I buy is really small so idk
I love the idea of leopard geckos as Palace guards. "Halt, who goes there? YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!" 😂
there's an app in brazil called shoppee that I suspect is from the same company as temu. It's a shopping app that sells cheap chinese and national products with an orange color scheme. At least shoppee is decent as nowadays it's mosty used by national small businesses selling at cheap but reasonable prices
@@YochevedDesigns IM DRAWING THAT
11:40
I HAVE A FEAR OF NEEDLES
*i shivered lmao*
I suppose the "explosion proof" cage thing could be used to transport geckos and other small lizards temporarily (like if you're travelling to hand the animal over to someone else). It's bigger than the seller cups at expos, I'll give it that. Permanently tho it would have to be for insects.
I mean the explosion proof box wouldn’t be a good home. But maybe a carry case? Like to the vets, or taking it home when you first get it. If it is explosion proof it has to be car crash safe right?
love your content! how about reviewing items from small businesses??
oh this is such a good idea!
Yess!!
that's a good idea! maybe they could carry some of the items in the online shop too as a way to help spread about it if they're good
That's not a bad idea
Boost! 🎉
The turtle bath could probably be good for frogs Because Types of frogs can stick Things like that!
I bought that exact mister off amazon when trying to set up my snake's enclosure on a budget. I had to hold the tubes in the machine everytime or they would detach and water would spray all over my room. Glad you guys didn't have that issue, but it was a recurring problem. As for longevity, the machine lasted about 6 months before the buttons stopped working altogether.
Mine lasted two 👁️👄👁️
With the small breeding box you can use it while you are herping you can put all the smaller critters into it
I bet those gloves would fail with my tempermental cat. You never know if she's going to be sweet or strike. She rarely gives warning through body language for some reason. She's an odd one though, but I love her anyway! ❤
I, too, thought that those gloves wouldn't stand up to a cat bite.
Ed is so dreamy 😭😭
He’s married………
The irony of getting a Temu advertisement on this video.
all ill say for the gloves: they should definitly add they are not venemous proof
"It fell, how do we check explosions" this had me in stitches. Thanks for the laughs 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I appreciate the positive energy and optimism that you always present, but in this review format I think it results in a promotional video that lacks important criticality.
For example, what stuck out to me the most was the products presented that were “on sale” from high prices. I would feel confident in stating that these are a scam (were never intended to sell at the “full” price) but I understand that would be a strong claim to make in this video. I was just disappointed that you did not verbally question these at all.
Often these are cheap copies of legitimate products, that will show images of the high quality item that the buyer will not receive. (possibly the case with the tong.)
I’m not sure if you have background knowledge of Temu, and other commenters have mentioned other issues- but my criticism is that the video presented item quality as the only questionable factor. There is little to no accountability for these sellers and it’s important to make people aware that they are often deceitful, especially when products are claiming to be safe for animals.
Like I said I am not suggesting you call any of your purchases scams, but please question and vocalize the possibility.
I have not looked into the other claims about Temu but if you are considering making more of this content, it would be good to do so.
Thank you for reading this feedback if you have. I love your videos.
I would absolutely LOVE to see more videos like this! I love where you just sit here talking to the camera, and best yet rating things, so we don’t have to waste money on something rediculous
This was a super fun video! I'd love to see this as a recurring segment that you guys do! 🎉
EDIT: Maybe going forward you could rank the items on an ongoing tier list.... it allows for more nuance in ranking. I also love Ed reading out the whole title of the product title/description!
I got that exact mister from Amazon a year back and it still works, surprisingly enough. It started to drip at the nozzle a few months in but that doesn't really bother me with my set up.
I will say though, pretty much the first time I used it one of the tubes slid out of the pump and distributed water literally everywhere in a matter of seconds. Even though it never happened again, I only plug it in to mist while I stand next to it because I don't want a major water leakage happen in my absence. Definitely not for everyone, but if you are working with a really tight budget this gets the job done
I dunno, if a needle can get through those I think a cat claw probably could, too 😂
I won't touch any product from Temu myself but this was interesting to watch 😮
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
To answer your question, I love these kinds of videos and would enjoy more of them for a good laugh and some education. Some of these things like the misting system would be great for a crested gecko or any other animal that needs to be misted more than once daily. (in fact I bought one for my crested gecko Falcon).
Ed and Emily also struggling to sleep like all of us 😂
Emily:if u like look at the chameleon and then look away and blink you can see the outlin-Ed:U SEE JESUS?
I like this new style! It's great seeing Ed on camera more too ♥I hope you continue this style in the future
Pro-tip, there are no snake proof gloves. Unless you've got a suit of iron lying around. People have been bitten even through Midwest gloves. No one expects you to be able to grab adult snakes with impunity in those. (Just the baby stinkers you cant hook)
I have double layer elk-hide cat gloves for work and have still been bit through. Granted, not as bad as if I werent wearing them. Ferals be cray!
4:32 my friends kept staring at the eclipse and they were seeing colors
Us night owls are benefitting from Emily not being able to sleep lol😅
if you told me 6 years ago when i started watching this channel that ed would burst onto camera with a bunch of temu boxes shouting "WOO" i would have called you insane
Emily’s reaction to the cage falling off the table is hilarious
I was watching this with my beardie and she literally ran away when she saw the pool noodle😂😂😂
I don't buy anything suspiciously cheap because it ALWAYS has drawbacks: it breaks quickly, nonquality material or something else.
I mean yeah, but I've had some decent cheap things. Not ordered, but same idea. $4 headset from dollarama lasted me a whole year before there were *any* issues. I'd say that's pretty good for the price.
Please do more of these! Between the 5th of a pool noodle and the tortoise x ray box, this is the most I've laughed in a bit!
Ed has become more unhinged and I love it XD
I have 2 of the mister systems in this video and I've been using them for over a year and they don't drip constantly and they work consistently, no problems here
I need an emotional support slug
The subject matter could be almost anything and I would watch because the style of this video is what had me rolling. The punch ins and editing GOT me. Also, as a long time viewer, I’m so proud of Ed’s camera growth!! Part of why this was so funny to me is your couple dynamic is VERY similar to my own!
I use those enclosures all the time with my tarantulas, and I love them. I love the little feeding slot on the side.
I like how lion wasn’t even spelled wrong, Ed called it a loin and then corrected Emily for saying it right. This is why he’s gotta stay behind the camera
We have those exact gloves at the vet clinic I work at (we’re cats only). They work decently well. Cats are not venomous. And they’re easy to clean!
You can use the small breeding box for breading hognoses
Frog toilet is a great band name
Ed's laugh at 1:35 made this entire video worth it 😂 I'm only 1:40 in but I just smiled so hard watching a video that it even shocked myself 🤣 There's something about the joy one receives by someone else's shock over their stupid purchase that tickles me pink 🤣😭
For a backup mister to have on hand just in case the good one breaks.
I think this mister would be really great.
Just confirm it works ok & then pack it away after a thorough drying.
Replace whats in the filter too if you can.
I'd love seeing more videos like this.
The Critter Keeper would be perfect for Jumping Spiders 😊
I wonder if Emily and Ed have seen the videos of people putting their tortoises on miniature skateboards and letting them zoom around. I'd love to see Sharon chasing round the zoo!
My theory is most of whats on temu is b grade stuff. Stuff that has slight imperfections or misshaps (such as a warped lid) that they can still sell for a bit of money.
Oh gosh im very early 😂 but i think in the thumbnail the frog in the toilet is veeeeery happy 😂
