Ally was like ‘this is my chance, THANKSGIVINGS DINNER!!!’
Yesss ally inhaled it
@@CheesyMonke37 Na, Ally was storming (but in a good way) when she saw that😅
Yep lol 😂
LOL, I'll never be able to unsee this when I make my Thanksgiving dinner!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was adorable
For next year, I vote that Rex receives a classic turkey leg. I think she deserves to sample the main course and there's less mess to clean up afterwards. 😉
Just think of the after holiday mark downs! She could have a whole bird minus the paper/plastic bag for giblets
@@katiekane5247 she would think she died and went to gator heaven!
Absolutely! But maybe no traditional seasoning. Most aren't safe for reptiles.
I agree
Cooked bones are a no no so they can give her raw turkey. Turkey neck that has ben smashed a bit would be great for Rex.
Allie knows the correct way to eat Thanksgiving dinner.
Absolutely 😂
She does!😂
Fr
Yep: all over the place!!!😂😂
I read this comment as it happened and I started cackling. She just went in full send.
Aquafaba (chickpea juice) is often used as an egg substitute and might work in future herbivore dishes. :)
For further clarification, it’s the liquid from canned chickpeas.
Or any bean/fava/faba.
Ground flaxseed or chia seed left to soak in a bit of water for a few minutes can also be used as an egg substitute in some recipes.
I was going to suggest unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana.
Aquafaba also whips up like egg whites
I can just see Emily on the Jason show doing a reptile cooking segment.
I didn't realize how much I want this until you said it.
That would be an amazing April fools type segment! Framing it as a regular cooking show and not commenting on all the reptile-safe alterations at all would be a great joke.
yes. This.
Now I want this to happen so bad!
@@anonviewMe too!!!
Hammy is such a, well... ham! I couldn't stop smiling watching him chow down, what a little gift he is. The personalities on beardies are just so endearing!
I know right? That's one of the main reasons I went with a bearded dragon over a gecko for my first reptile. Plus, with an omnivore, I can try loads of different things to see if he likes it or not. My beardie's likes and dislikes so far are:
Likes:
Insects
Greens
Red bell pepper
Bok choy
Dandelion flowers
Pansies
Marigolds
Banana
Reptile Pellets
Grapes
Zucchini
Red Cabbage
Dislikes:
Apples
Orchids
Fruit gel
The best part of the cooking is Ed getting slowly more and more concerned about what Emily is feeding him when she cooks.
19:31 Ed: "Sweet potatoes AND pumpkin pie!" Emily: "I didn't know you could eat both at once!" Allie: "Challenge accepted!" (aka "Hold my beer!") 🤣
For Ally its "hold my inability to take good bites/keep stuff in my mouth" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You eman 19:34
Have you tried stuffing “sausage casings” that are safe for gators to eat so you could make holiday sausages? It may contain the mess!
Reminds me of Reptilinks!
Great idea
Intestines are the OG sausage casing, those should be reptile safe!
You underestimate Rex XD
@@LS-xy7zt Of course intestine would be safe for a gator. I've never seen a gator gutting it's prey to avoid eating the intestine. So if it's cleaned to be used for human consumption it should be perfectly safe for an alligator.
I once made two regular pumpkin pies, and totally forgot to put sugar in them. They tasted awful, but my dogs loved them. I sliced up the pie and put it back into the oven on low heat to dry them out, and the dogs had treats for the next two weeks.

I know your comment is from 8 months ago but I have done the same thing💀 I thought that the pumpkin was the pre seasoned pumpkin. It was in fact not seasoned or sweet what so ever😭 so you’re not alone!
To see Ally go to town on her thanksgiving dinner was just too precious 😂😍
Seeing Emily with a knife and Cheyenne on her shoulder makes her look like a kitchen pirate.
xD
SOOOO TRUE!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ally is me with pumpkin pie honestly 😂
Emily’s “YEAH it looks great” made me laugh harder than I probably should have
I laughed out loud at Ally taking such big bites of her dinner!
Cheyenne was like " :0 OMG THIS IS KINDA GOOD"
This is the best Ally eating experience ever 😂😂😂
How did the tortoises like theirs? I was looking forward to seeing Sharon try her sweet potatoes.
Ah I can't believe I didn't notice they got forgotten. Bummer
I was about to say that! Very disappointing 😂😂😂 I just hope they did it off camera. I’m just picturing Refriki with food all over his mouth.😂
You can use unsweetened applesauce as egg substitute! 2oz for each egg! Works great for human baking so I thought it might be good for reptiles too!
Dude, cooking moist cat food and 🦗 in your own PERSONAL oven for the 🦎🐍🦜🐊...now THAT'S freaking love and commitment 😍🥰😻
"Do you wanna explain *your* alligator to me?" - Ed Roberts of House Roberts, King of Sarcasm 🤣 Happy Thanksgiving you guys!
i'm excited for when you announce a reptile safe cooking book! i hope you guys calculate the recipes in small portions since not everyone has a zoo to feed
ally trying to eat wrapped kit kats at halloween, haui trying to eat a spatula, truly a match made in heaven
Ally was a pleasure to see eat, one big bite after another she cleaned the plate 😂
You should totally make a reptile safe charcuterie using the Snake Discovery cutting board
What would a reptile safe charcuterie even be?
I was so ready to commend Allie on her improved eating skills when... well 😅
The: "Yur actually going to eat that?"
"Let me know how you feel in 2 hours"
at 11:43 got me cracking up, Snake Discovery never fails to brighten my day ❤❤
Jealous.
I would feel jealous.
Emily with the green bean casserole : I'll eat it if you eat
ED:Nooooo
That had me 🤣
I loved seeing Cheyenne's eyes dilate when she tried the new food. ❤😊
Allie was hilarious.
Maybe they could set up an eating area close to a hose outside of her enclosure for Rex to get messy and make cleanup easier.
I feel so bad for ham sandwich, but him diving right into the green bean casserole was the funniest thing that I've seen a beardie do. I own a bearded dragon and he doesn't eat his salad unless I give him a bug first. I got him on 8/20/2023 as a three-year-old, the poor guy didn't have a UVB light and I'm so thankful that he din't have MBD. Happy thanksgiving to you guys and all the reptiles!
i love how instead of picking one group or the other to piss off by saying "casserole" or "hotdish" they split the difference and made everyone unhappy /lh
Ally was my favorite one. She dove into that plate! ❤️
Crunchy= healthy
Gotcha all the fried food is as good for me as it tastes!
i love how Howie is just exploring the countertop 🤣
The absolute chaos of Emily's chopping 😂
Hammy and Ally were wonderful to watch, they were so enthusiastic!
The cutting board is kind of a genius product to sell. I imagine there's a lot of people that are prepping food for their animals that they don't necessarily want on their own cutting boards. Now their pets can have their own!
I love how Cheyennes feathers have grown back to look like she is wearing pasties! Lol!
And my reptiles have a larger menu this year last year they loved the bugkin pie.. and Emily just randomly staring at the snakes cloaca.. hammy is my new favorite bearded dragon!! 😂😂 He LOVED the dinner and he is amazing!
Loved Ally’s reaction. Rex has grown so much
Ally is showing her inner komodo dragon with that pie, wow!
I feel like ally's eating has gotten so much better than when we first saw her eat with you guys. It just shows that the right care for any animal can go a long way!
😂 idt her care was bad at her old home, she was just handfed so she's understandably a bit special 💚
Love the orange fall themed snake discovery logo in the corner 😊❤
They never asked anyone to subscribe, but lots of shameless plugs for merch. And I'm here for it.
I love seeing how big Rex has gotten. Even though she is stunted in comparison to others in her species, she is so big!
I just wanted to say… ham sammich is a good beardie. Give him love.
Happy almost thanksgiving snake discovery and critters!!!
I'm also of the opinion that wine is gross an sparkling grape just is better. My family have never been big drinkers so it's our special thing to fill some fancy cups with sparkling juice for our New Year's toast.
This video made this disabled house bound old lady very happy!!!🦃🦃🦃🦃
Hahaha, omg Ally!!??? That was so much in one bite!! 😂
7:23 I would like to compliment you two on "adulting well", who needs wine when you can have sparkling grape juice!
Every time you say sweat potato hot dish, my southern heart and souls dies a little. It’s sweat potato casserole the south has spoken. Lol 😂
Random relative drops by for a visit. They see with glee that Thanksgiving preparations are underway. In their enthusiasm, they decide to sneak a taste. "I think your cooking needs work," they say to a baffled Ed and Emily.
Rex can't help making a mess because of her overbite smile. ❤
When we were kids, I told my sister that French fried onions were cricket chunks, just so I could gross her out and have more of the onions to myself. She has hated onions ever since, that and the texture of onions
Happy Thanksgiving to Ed and Emily as well as the whole snake discovery crew. Sending all of you love and positive thoughts 🫶🏻💜🫶🏻💜🦃🦃
I love how Stinky is a universal term for all animals. It’s so stinking cute!
Cheyenne looks so adorable during the in video and the reptiles love the food❤❤❤PS. Hi Ed and Emily 😊
I love these Cooking For Reptiles videos SO much, this makes me SO happy!
*Edit* : _Oh my god, ALLY_
I still think that they should do a reptile, safe pizza 🍕
YESS
"Does she know it's healthy?"
Cheyenne is all of us.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all and your animals and everyone reading this comment ❤😊
I honestly can't believe how pretty the meal actually looks!!
Tell me your tegu is hungry without telling me your tegu is hungry 😂 damn girl! I felt those bites lol.
Allie seeing and eating the sweet potato hot dish and the pumpkin pie: where have you been all my life😋🥲
Maybe for next year if you do the sweet potato again, what about making some small balls of it with all the crunches on the outside to give to Rex and maybe the rest too. That way it's all in one spot and won't have the crust that Rex doesn't like.
I love Ally's reaction ❤ it was so funny and reminds me of my dad when we eat. Everything all at once.
I'm very thankful for Snake Discovery for there amazing dedication, education, and fun. Thank you all for what you do.
I dont know if its just me but Rex looks like she has gotten fuller/bigger since being at the new spot. Also question, I miss seeing more interactions with Rex! I remember when she was in that room! you guys made the best possible for her!
Ed hit the jackpot with Emily….. no way he’d be living this life without her
Ally was so freaking cute I love her so much 😍 I think thanksgiving might be her favorite holiday hehe
One thing you could try with Rex is making sausages (using real intestine) - she might be more likely to swallow it
I absolutely loved watching the reptiles with the pumpkin pie last year, I'm sure this will be just as wonderful. Thank you for all your hard work and for all the love you give. Lots of love ❤
I’m obsessed with Rex she is literally the cutest gator ever. I remember the vid announcing you had an alligator in your basement lol. I can’t wait to come see her in the zoo one day. Also as soon as you put that cat food in the oven I knew it smelled crazy in there
21:39 Argentine tegus are seasonally endothermic between September and December, so Ally is eating more often than any other time of the year to keep a stable metabolism.
This was so cute, it's hard to pick a fave. I'm glad that Thanksgiving with the reptiles is turning into a thing. I love Halloween, so it's so nice to see Thanksgiving following in its reptile themed path. Just kind of cozy to see y'all cook for and feed the animals with such love, humor, and care.
Good to see Hammy! He looks great! Fantastic episode! ❤Hope everyone has a happy thanksgiving! Take care all.
Ally's bite of bugkin pie was the first time I've ever seen her eat something that didn't fall out of her mouth 5 times.
omg you and Ed should go on "im a celebrity get me out of here" there is LOTS of snakes and spiders on it and also im a huge fan and im getting your merch soon!
(Thanks for recommending "wings of fire" its really good)
That food mooshed all over Allly's face is the cutest thing ever!!
My toddler absolutely loved watching the bugkin pie video last year. I can’t even count how many times she’s watched it. 😂 I’m sure she’ll love this one, too. Happy Thanksgiving, guys!
May even encourage eating green beans! Make sure to point that out in the first half how much the first few animals REALLY like them lol!
@@tenshikaren Thankfully my daughter has always loved green beans, one of the FEW vegetables she likes. 😂 Sweet potatoes, too! But she’ll definitely get a kick out of seeing the reptiles eating them. It’s really good advice for picky eaters! 👍
“One bite of dinner and then dessert…” Allie is my spirit animal 😅
Anyone else wondering how Emily can chop those sweet potatoes with that huge kitchen knife, but she can't be trusted to open mail with safety scissors?
Edit: less than a minute later, Emily says "Ed is the chef in this family." That makes so much more sense.
The sound of the sweet potato getting crush’s was amazing and you guys!
I don't know if any gelatin like things are reptile safe, but I wonder if next year you could make some sort of gelatin-ized mix of the foods for Rex since she didn't like the crust. It would maybe be neater than just slopping scoops of things in because it could be shaped, but wouldn't have an additional flavor or texture that she might not like. But this is just an idea that may have no merit but i figured I'd throw it in. I know mammal based zoos will often freeze food into ice to be able to shape it but the cold might not be great for cold blooded creatures and their digestions so I was trying to brainstorm something that could be set into a shape in a similar but not so cold way.
Should be safe, at least if you use regular gelatine. Gelatine is basically just natural regular collagen and that's something a gator would get on a regular diet anyways.
I wouldn't risk it with plant based jelly alternatives though, just to be save.
the water from the sweet potatoes also has minerals in it, so maybe instead of putting it down the drain, it can go into water dishes for a while
Under 10 minutes gang. Love the video ❤
👇🏻
@24:56 "do you wanna explain your Alligator to me?" "Nooo"
What species is Howie?
Edit: Oh, tegu. I was confused because he's so much smaller and a different color than Ally.
“Hot Dish- because that’s how we roll in Minnesota”
seeing ally made my day !!!
These are some of my favorite specials, watching the reptiles eat thanksgiving is very wholesome
Mmm! This sounds good! Now I’m jealous of the reptiles
Next time y’all should do those but also the turkey to finish the thanksgiving dinner!
Early 😊 I love your videos, they are what inspired my love for reptiles!
I love the look of Emily waving around a knife with a parrot on her shoulder like a pirate
Can't wait to see these foods being made!
Mee too

I so wish I could work at Snake Discovery! Dream job right there 💗
Exactly
Yo 2 are the best! I really love that yo have 1 solid channel instead of spreading content over several different ones. One day I will make it to your facility, it is on a bucket list for me.
Hammy is going hog wild on Thanksgiving dinner 😂 I love watching him go to town.
Happy Thanksgiving Snake Discovery crew!!! We are thankful for you ❤
