Ed had just finished warning you not to get electrocuted, so when he shouted, I thought for sure he got zapped! I'm glad it turned out to be Priscilla (although this was probably the most painful way to find her, unfortunately for Ed!)
@@RisingRevengeance I mean, the bite did draw blood, so it probably did hurt. I guess is just that Ed is kinda used to such things and just spooked himself.
@@TheNeonwing I was bit once by my ball python (not a bull snake admittedly) and while it hurt, it really was more of the shock that prompted me to scream like Ed. Plus, he and Emily seem really used to their snakes’ bites.
If she still feels or looks thick after a week you might want to take her to the vet. Our bullsnake when he got lose ended up in the attic and ate all sorts of crap he shouldn't! (Pieces of expando foam and insulation. It was expensive AF to get it all removed from his insides.)
Ed is looking so professional and seems so comfortable around people and in front of the camera now. He seems like a different person in the best sort of way. It is so fun to watch both Ed and Emily continue to grow and become even more amazing than before (who knew it was possible?!)!
“Not on display at this time” is a much more tactful notice to put on Priscilla’s enclosure than “I’m loose in the hoose! Please let the staff know if you see me.” 😆
Yeah she's nicer now because after being on her own without regulated heat, etc., she realized y'all were giving her the good life!! That's her way of saying "Thanks Mom and Dad"!!!
Ed just demonstrated why you never stick your hand in dark holes. You never know what's hiding. Also, I wonder if she tried to get out because she heard the soft furs behind the enclosure 🧐
Preggers or not I think a quick vet trip would be wise. When our 13ft boa Elizabeth got out (thanks to my Dad when on vacation) and found a day or so later she quickly became quite swollen. We took her into the vet because she was looking off an it turned out she had eaten a *whole* *electric* *blanket* ! When she drank water when back in her cage it wicked into the blanket and being just far enough down she was struggling to vomit it up on her own. Long story short she required a month long vet stay to monitor for any infection or poisoning.
@@razzledazzle2857 She's fine thank goodness, she pulled through and is a very happy an healthy snake. She now has a bigger an better enclosure with a snake proof door handle for her feed room now. So no more grand escapes for her lol.
Theres always the risk this would happen, but what's important is that she's found and healthy, and you'll have a fantastic opportunity to learn and try out measures and policies if it happens in the future!
Ed screaming scared my half to death! I was so focused thinking “oh where could this snake be…I hope she didn’t make it outside!” And then AHHH she bit me. I jumped sooo high off my couch! Glad she is back and safe and hopefully she didn’t eat anything she wasn’t supposed to. Please keep us posted.
One potential way for you to find the missing Softfurs would be to use an infrared camera. Let the room chill down, and then see where the hot spots are, like how a pit viper does.
Probably not really necessary anymore. 😅 My first suggestion of she’d still been missing would have been to keep checking the rodent room. I had a young Honduran milk snake escape when I moved to my new house, he’d been missing for over two weeks, I had a litter of rats go missing from their cage. Finally found him curled up next to the rat cage after a new litter had been born.
@@danielled8665 They're going to lose another animal at some point. It's inevitable. Like they said, they'd already lost soft furs before Priscilla got loose.
I’m so happy you found her safe and sound! If she does produce a clutch next year I say the eggs should have drawings of different magic objects to pay homage to her escape artist past
@@fightingfaerie They're very venomous, but thankfully rather reclusive. I still wouldn't want to be feeling around in the dark for one, though! That takes some serious courage.
I’m so relieved Priscilla is okay and that Ed’s heart rate (hopefully) went back to normal…side note, I would really appreciate a snake discovery animal list so I know how old an animal is and if they’re still alive. Does anyone know if there’s such a list out there already?
Could be kind of hard to put up such list though, unless Emily keeps record of all animals that have passed. Of course some fan favourites/special animals that have passed that most fans know would be Nick, Janet and Popeye. But there are a lot of animals that they acquired for breeding, some were let go to new homes while quite a few have passed due to old age. Sometimes particular animal death was announced on youtube community tab or patreon which might be missed unless you comb through those platform (I did once before when I was wondering where Mrs Wilson was since she was no longer bred to Mr Wilson. Turned out she passed not long after having issue with stucked egg while laying, as seen on a video wayyy back). Others were mentioned on videos (eg: Popeye, Twiggy). There are also some cases where the animals were given away to pet-only home due to certain reasons (like Missy the hypo bullsnake and the unnamed red bullsnake, both had the same problem with stucked egg). Now that Snake Discovery has much bigger collection, it has gotten kind of hard to keep up with what animals they currently have, especially with all the animals they have have acquired for the zoo. These are the ones that have passed so far that I have been able to figure out from various sources: Walter, Fatness Everdeen, Twiggy, Traveller There are a few that I am guessing might have passed like Creepy Cooter
I thought it was odd when they said that, unless captive bull snakes are different to the wild ones in my area they climb just fine if they want to get to something. Especially over fences around chicken coops XD
@@feyrannahunter1062 They meant bullsnakes aren't an arboreal species and spend 99% of their life on the ground. Not that they CAN'T climb, just they aren't known for it.
I work at a pet store and we lost our California Kingsnake a few months back. A few weeks ago i was restocking dry cat food and he popped out from under the shelf i was in front of, gave me a tongue flick, and tried to slither away again. After catching him and going through our records, he’d been loose for 3 months. Didnt lose weight, no stuck shed, and his attitude was a little nicer.
@@RiverMatheny Depends on what kind you want. They have wait lists for the snakes they breed (bullsnakes, hognose, garters, and a few other in very small quantities) and you can contact them (info on website) to get on that list. The other way is to visit their retail store in MN and buy something (or adopt) something on display and available immediately.
Wow crazy escape artist. Looks like she found her personal chamber of secrets above her enclosure. So happy they found her. That was great Ed’s reaction to getting bitten and finding her. This is now my current favorite video with Ed’s reaction.
I seem to recall a wise woman who once began a video with the quote, "There are two kinds of snake breeder; those who have lost a snake, and liars." ;)
I've only appreciated snakes for the last year or two. We've had our snake since mid-June. Took me approximately 2 weeks to lose him for the first (and as of this writing only) time. We were on a road trip and he got loose in the car. Tore everything out of the car. Couldn't find him. Massive panic attack 1,000 miles from home, alone with my 5yo daughter. Finally find him wedged under the seat of the folded down 3rd row. He's fine. I was less fine.
I LOVE how Emily actually stopped talking and even paused the recording whenever Ed screamed! She must've been so concerned, That's so caring and respectful aw! 4:28
Glad that Priscilla was found safe and it's nice to see that you put her welfare first and didn't hesitate to drill a hole in your wall and rip out some of the outer rock texture to find her. When Ed yelled that scared me! I thought maybe he got electrocuted. Reaching your hand into a dark space and getting bitten by something has to be everyone's worst nightmare 😂
I've been told think of Fahrenheit as percent of warm, so thirty degrees is only thirty percent warm. One hundred fahrenheit is thirty seven celsius. It's obviously not completely accurate, but it's a decent guideline
Oh I had this happen with my corn once. I had him in a quarantine tank because he got mites rig before I went on a trip and the little guy escaped. He decided his hiding place was going to be right under my mom’s mattress. My mom who is terrified of snakes. I was just happy he was okay and the dog didn’t get him.
My corn had half an escape attempt xD. I bought him the snake discovery enclosure (absolutely great for him) and I put him in, no problem. There’s a tiny little space between the two glass doors. I figured ‘Emily and Ed keep garters in there, Loki’s bigger than that, he can’t escape.’ Cue me waking up at 3 am in the morning with him squeezing himself through. Somehow. He pushed the doors apart in their guiding things and was able to muscle his way through. Just a boop of the nose and he went back inside. Bought some blocking strips first thing that day!
Omg! Each time you guys stuck your arms in holes I was like “no she’s going to bite you! Well I guess that’s one way to find her…” lol I was right 😂 I do have a slight phobia of sticking my hands or feet in places where I can’t see and uh that didn’t help 🤣
Never a dull moment! Glad you found Priscilla (in the most epic way lol, poor Ed)! Speaking of ASFs, one of them I got from you chewed out of a bin here too - they are ridiculous! I managed to catch her and moved them into something totally escape-proof, but I feel your pain!
I'm glad you found your snake :-) I just lost a tiny baby corn snake about a week ago. I've searched and tried luring her back, but there's been no sign of her. At this point I don't expect to ever find her, but people have found their snakes unexpectedly months later in the strangest places. I know I'll be much more careful about securing the lids with my other snakes. Still kicking myself for the mistake.
I'm glad you found her! I'm so curious how you guys are able to keep track of everything, like what to feed who when, when certain closures need cleaned, when the rats need fed, when breeding is for each snake, etc. Do you have amazing excel files or what??
"If ______ was a snake it would have bit you." In my area we have this expression used when looking for something that is obvious that I never understood. In all my attempts at herping the snakes decidedly do not jump out at you but Priscilla definitely did do this.
Not a climbing species?? I routinely find bull snakes up in cottonwood trees and on sandstone cliffs going into birds nests. Best climbing colubrids I've seen yet. Glad you found her - phew haha
As far as I can tell, every species is a climbing species, lol. I guess it comes from our ancient ancestors climbing from the water onto land the first time, haha.
This reminds me of searching for my pet rats after escapes - although finding them was less painful, they just gave me a friendly greeting sniff instead of a bite, lol!
Wow! What an adventure for Priscilla, Queen of the Snake Discovery zoo!! I reckon she must have gotten such a fright when Ed’s arm came through where she was! She probably hadn’t seen much of any other living creatures while she was on her adventure! Other than the little furry variety that fattened her up so much!! I did feel for Ed when he got bit! But more because he got such a fright! I’m sure that Ed is used to being on the receiving end of being bitten, but he clearly wasn’t expecting anything to bite him when he stuck his arm into Priscilla’s hiding place! I’m so sorry your California trip got cut short. Did you guys go back to finish your trip there or did you just cut your losses?! I’m not sure if I am remembering your dates correctly, but I think you might be on your holiday/vacation now in ……somewhere in central or South America!! Or it was an Island down south! My memory is terrible! Well, if you are, I hope you are having the time of your lives! After all of your hard work over the last couple of years to get your Zoo up and running, no one deserves a holiday/vacation more than you guys, in my opinion!
That was EPIC! I totally thought Ed was pulling another trick but this time the trick was on him LOL 😂 Ah Pricilla! What a good girl, you knew where those naughty soft furs were and knew it was your duty to get them! Great video guys 🤩
Poor Ed, he looked like he was going to have a heart attack! And right after a rattle snake handling class! Lol if that were me I would have instantly thought "ohhhh crap im gonna die!!" HAHAHA
My baby mexican black kingsnake was such an escape artist she escaped 5 different types of enclosure through the most stupidly small gaps. One day she escaped and I never found her again. I loved her like a child which is why I kept trying to snake proof and get her new enclosures to try but it was to no avail. I haven’t had a pet snake since and I miss her so much. The struggle with snake escapes is so real, especially in such a vast area, and I’m glad she was found safe and sound.
So that explains why strawberry was there when I visited! Also I hope they told you guys about the baby garter that tried to escape through the overlap in the glass! I was the guest who spotted the little escape artist
I thought ED was joking at first like they do in scary movies when they stick their hands into the unknown and spook the other to ease tension, then I realized he wasn’t joking… This is why you don’t stick hands into holes … though it worked out in this case, I’m glad they found her!
If you pause the video as Ed gets bitten by Priscilla, the face is priceless! I am sorry He had to be bitten BUT you did find the snake, ant that's all that matters. The funny ace is just an added bonus.
Sticking your hand into a hole and being bit by something you can’t see is an ancestral human fear. Sorry Ed had to experience it.
Oh my god that just made me feel even worse for him that must have been t e r r i f y i n g
Generational trauma at its finest.
Hopefully as a reptile keeper he has adapted to expect a bite when sticking his hand into a hole, but I guess it still scared him!
When you haven’t started the video and see this when you look at the comments…

The eggs can be labeled with different magician tools. Pack of cards, a wand, a bunny, a hat etc
Houdini, Angel, Gallup and Blaine are just a couple that I could think of.

Yeah it's lovely to see
Task Failed Successfully?

Ed is looking so professional and seems so comfortable around people and in front of the camera now. He seems like a different person in the best sort of way. It is so fun to watch both Ed and Emily continue to grow and become even more amazing than before (who knew it was possible?!)!
I was noticing that too. My heart was beating fast for him when Priscilla got him.
He was also so loving and caring for Priscilla and so patient with her biting him!
I was totally thinking that a few videos ago!
We love camera-more-comfy Ed!
Good point :D
“Not on display at this time” is a much more tactful notice to put on Priscilla’s enclosure than “I’m loose in the hoose! Please let the staff know if you see me.” 😆

@@neolithiumproduction yup i agree on this the most lol 😂
this could be true but i think she wasted her madness on Ed from spooking her shevv be then decided she's to lazy be mad after eating the furs lol
@@neolithiumproduction xD
She slipped through the hole, ate the rats, then was too chonky to fit back through, haha.
Emily: We sealed all the holes so now there is no more chances of escape.
Priscilla: Are you challenging me?
That was the first thing that came to my mind. "Oh no Emily you've jinxed it"
That's why they've replaced her with strawberry short snake 😂
Ed getting bit - screaming "HI PRISCILLA" is like a perfect take
Ed just demonstrated why you never stick your hand in dark holes. You never know what's hiding.

I'm so curious how you guys are able to keep track of everything, like what to feed who when, when certain closures need cleaned, when the rats need fed, when breeding is for each snake, etc. Do you have amazing excel files or what??
Me too! I'd enjoy seeing how you organize things!
Probably but I know that they have a staff at the facility to help them!
I would love to see what kind of routine they keep and if there's documentation that has to be done when they've been fed.
I was so worried! She ended up fixing a couple of other problems along the way as well, so I guess everything turned out for the best.
Happy you found her. So happy you weren't looking for a venomous snake. That bite would have turned out completely different.
I'm glad she's safe and sound! Silly snake.
Bless Ed's heart!! It's amazing he didn't fall or say a curse word when bitten. It was hilarious, but so thankful he is ok. Glad Priscilla is good to.
"If ______ was a snake it would have bit you."
In my area we have this expression used when looking for something that is obvious that I never understood. In all my attempts at herping the snakes decidedly do not jump out at you but Priscilla definitely did do this.
Ed’s reaction made my day. To be fair think he held it together better than I would have 🤣
Not a climbing species?? I routinely find bull snakes up in cottonwood trees and on sandstone cliffs going into birds nests. Best climbing colubrids I've seen yet. Glad you found her - phew haha
As far as I can tell, every species is a climbing species, lol. I guess it comes from our ancient ancestors climbing from the water onto land the first time, haha.
o no! Ed! owch! I'm glad you found Priscilla -- thats like a primal fear, reaching into a dark hole and getting bit by something 🤣🤣
This reminds me of searching for my pet rats after escapes - although finding them was less painful, they just gave me a friendly greeting sniff instead of a bite, lol!
A wise woman once said "there are two types of snake owners. Those who've had one escape and liers." glad she's safe? Big thicc breadstick.
Come on, just ONE escape?
No wonder she's so sneaky. She's a solid snake.
Wow! What an adventure for Priscilla, Queen of the Snake Discovery zoo!!
I reckon she must have gotten such a fright when Ed’s arm came through where she was! She probably hadn’t seen much of any other living creatures while she was on her adventure! Other than the little furry variety that fattened her up so much!!
I did feel for Ed when he got bit! But more because he got such a fright! I’m sure that Ed is used to being on the receiving end of being bitten, but he clearly wasn’t expecting anything to bite him when he stuck his arm into Priscilla’s hiding place!
I’m so sorry your California trip got cut short. Did you guys go back to finish your trip there or did you just cut your losses?!
I’m not sure if I am remembering your dates correctly, but I think you might be on your holiday/vacation now in ……somewhere in central or South America!! Or it was an Island down south! My memory is terrible!
Well, if you are, I hope you are having the time of your lives! After all of your hard work over the last couple of years to get your Zoo up and running, no one deserves a holiday/vacation more than you guys, in my opinion!
I'm glad you found her safe, and I HOPE she's chunky from rats and not something more dangerous to her. Poor Ed, but that was pretty amusing. xD
Ed looks so good, happy en glowy! He is such a sweety 😍
Happy holidays
Xoxo
I'm so glad you guys found her!! I can't imagine how stressful that must've been, and poor Ed. Your sacrifice was worth it for the ✨greater good✨
Truly Ed is the best snake bait there is XD
That was EPIC! I totally thought Ed was pulling another trick but this time the trick was on him LOL 😂 Ah Pricilla! What a good girl, you knew where those naughty soft furs were and knew it was your duty to get them! Great video guys 🤩
Ed looks amazing! He looks so happy and healthy its amazing to see
Here's a time stamp for the glory moment. Time stamp: 4:20
ED has had many hairstyles but the cut he has now is perfect for him amazing the difference the right hair cut makes
I love that when Ed got bit they cut out him saying son of a b-. that scare was awesome!
so glad they found her though!!
Poor Ed, he looked like he was going to have a heart attack! And right after a rattle snake handling class! Lol if that were me I would have instantly thought "ohhhh crap im gonna die!!" HAHAHA
Didn’t even need to buy the camera, just put Ed’s hands in places lol She’s being nice because she ate all the missing rats and is full 😂
Omg priceless reaction from Ed..amazing you got that on camera! Love you guys! ^_^
I was wondering when the first zoo mishap was gonna happen. I am glad you found her.
Sorry that Ed got bit. I'm so glad you found her so quickly.❤
It's good to see that she's safe and sound.
Poor Ed, I can't image his heart rate!🤣 I also watched that bite 10 more times, that was funny af!! 😂😂
Ed's very lucky he didnt fall off the ladder when Priscilla bit him! It could have been bad. Luckily everyone, including the snake is safe.
My baby mexican black kingsnake was such an escape artist she escaped 5 different types of enclosure through the most stupidly small gaps. One day she escaped and I never found her again. I loved her like a child which is why I kept trying to snake proof and get her new enclosures to try but it was to no avail. I haven’t had a pet snake since and I miss her so much. The struggle with snake escapes is so real, especially in such a vast area, and I’m glad she was found safe and sound.
So that explains why strawberry was there when I visited! Also I hope they told you guys about the baby garter that tried to escape through the overlap in the glass! I was the guest who spotted the little escape artist
The moment when Ed got bit... Priceless. Glad you managed to find her!
I was dying when she bit Ed, that would've scared the crap out of me!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ed's new hair style is fantastic. He looks clean cut and professional. Yay Ed.👍
I almost had a heart attack when Ed got bit! Glad she's back from her adventure
I am so proud of y’all. Look how far y’all have came! Omg I love your zoo
I thought ED was joking at first like they do in scary movies when they stick their hands into the unknown and spook the other to ease tension, then I realized he wasn’t joking…
This is why you don’t stick hands into holes … though it worked out in this case, I’m glad they found her!
Ed is a fantastic man, that kind of patience, combined with a great sence of humour, not very often seen
Priscilla just wanted to help point out the flaw with the security of the enclosures 💜😂
Cracking up at Ed getting bit and Priscilla singing Eminem 😂😂😂 love the reptile comments leave them longer please 😂😂❤
"Why are you intruding into my lair, you five-headed freak!?" - Priscilla to Ed's hand
Ed is such a cutie and i’m so happy he is (at least more) comfortable on camera now. Yah’ll are both absolutely comfort youtubers
Plot twist: since she's fatter and more gentle, *that ain't Priscilla*
I have watched this a dozen times, I swear. I bet Priscilla double clutches this spring after her lovely feast.
If you pause the video as Ed gets bitten by Priscilla, the face is priceless! I am sorry He had to be bitten BUT you did find the snake, ant that's all that matters. The funny ace is just an added bonus.
Yay!! Great job Ed! Now we know Ed has great bladder control! hahaha
