- Have you ever heard of a pumpkin-
- [All] Spice latte?
- No, a pumpkin snake.
- Oh, nope, never heard of it. - Oh, no.
- Well, I've got surprise for you
because in this egg there's actually a pumpkin-
- [All] Spice latte?
- No, pumpkin snakes.
- [All] Oh, what's a pumpkin snake?
- I'm gonna show you guys, but first,
look at this little mama right here.
This is actually a Kenyan sand boa.
And you think, well, that's no big deal, right, Brian?
But look right here.
Whoa, Mama, what is going on?
Kenyans can be a little bit crazy, but look at this.
It's a little baby sand boa that was just born.
Now, this actually happens to be a black and white one
or what they would call an anerythristic.
This is actually, whoa,
a het for anerythristic female
that was bred to an anerythristic male.
So everything is gonna be either anerythristic
or het for anerythristic.
I have no idea how many live babies she has.
But I gotta be careful,
'cause she will bite me, there's no doubt about it.
Not only is she gonna be protective of her baby,
but sand boas can also be
a little bit cantankerous at times.
Here's another one right here.
This is actually a normal sand boa.
So this is het for anerythristic,
you can see just like mama over here.
Okay Mama, oh my goodness gracious.
She is getting close.
I saw another baby over here,
but getting these babies out is gonna be a little bit...
Oh, there it is right there.
This is another anerythristic here.
So, so far we've got two anerythristic and one, whoa!
Did you see that?
Oh my gosh.
And one, whoa!
Here's another little baby here,
another little black and white anerythristic.
So far three anerythristics and one normal.
Oh, there's another baby right here.
And these guys can sometimes have 10, even 15 babies.
So far we've got five babies total.
And mama is not happy, that's sure.
I know, mom, it's okay.
She's like, don't mess with my babies!
Here's another one here.
Oh, it's another black and white one.
Four black and white ones and two normals
that are het for anerythristic.
I'm just looking around to see if there's any more in here.
Okay, Mama, don't bite me, don't bite me.
Oh guys, these guys are so cute.
And it's really cute that they're like
little carbon copies of mama, right?
They look just like her.
But the black and white ones
are just lacking the orange or yellow pigment.
But look at these guys, look at this, this is a...
Oh, oh, it's a little bitey one too.
Look at how feisty.
But look at how much it looks just like mama right there.
And these guys are what they call sexually dimorphic,
meaning that the females get about twice the size of males.
So it looks like we've got six babies total.
Four of 'em are black and white
and two of them are normals that are het for anerythristic.
How cool is that-
(Jay and Noah sing indistinctly)
♪ Soon may the weather men come ♪
- What in the world is going on here?
- I'm just dancing.
- Had a really cool clutch of ball pythons hatched out.
And we're gonna play a little bit of Consequence Game.
Are you guys ready?
- I'm ready!
- Okay, the deal is, is this is a pinstripe female.
It was bred to a black pewter lesser cypress.
I'm gonna show you the animals.
Whoever guesses the absolute worst
outta the three of you get locked in an enclosure
for the rest of the day of my choosing.
- What?
- [Brian] Round one.
- That's a black pewter pastel lesser.
- [Brian] A black pewter pastel lesser.
- Same thing, but with pin in it.
- Black pewter cypress pin.
- So Noah did get the closest.
It just has pastel in it.
It's just a black pastel pinstripe cypress ball python.
- That's what I said!
- You said pewter, you didn't say black pastel.
- I did. - So you got it the best.
- He actually got it second,
'cause he said the same thing as you, but it had pinstripe.
Yours didn't have pinstripe, so you got the worst so far.
- Oh yeah! - Have pinstripe?
- It's okay- (Noah sings)
- It's pinstripe.
- But it's okay, this is only one round.
Don't worry about it that much.
- I always lost at everything we play.
- Haven't been practicing as much as we have.
- So these are actually pumpkin morph ball pythons
that just hatched.
This would happen to be just a pumpkin.
And it's also a yellow belly, so a pumpkin yellow belly.
And there's some strange things going on.
Now, we have a few eggs that we're gonna cut here
in a little bit and see what's inside them.
But some animals actually hatched out.
This would just be a cinnamon.
Now, the dad was actually a cinnamon pumpkin animal.
The mom was actually a fire yellow belly.
Now this is what's really bizarre here, guys,
is that I've bred this pumpkin to a number of things,
and they have never produced white snakes before.
This has been happening to me a lot this year.
These are actually black-eyed leucistics.
And you can see there's even some paradoxing on 'em,
these yellow blotches.
Now, that happens when it comes to the super fire.
So maybe that pumpkin gene might be
expressing a little bit there too, I'm not 100% sure.
And then I hatched out two of these little pumpkins here.
These are actually pumpkin fire yellow bellies.
Absolutely ridiculous, look at how beautiful that is!
That pumpkin gene actually adds a little orange to it,
also reduces pattern a little bit, cleans things up.
Absolutely incredible.
Just in a little bit, we're gonna cut these last four eggs
and see what's inside them.
Next up.
- Bumblebee pinstripe!
- Also known as a spin or blast.
- Oh, is it?
- Pastel cypress lesser pin.
- Okay, I would like to go for real this time.
- Go ahead.
- Pinstripe lesser cypress pastel.
- I believe- - That's the same thing
that Noah said. - Yeah, that's what I said.
- Is it? - Yeah.
- I'm not paying attention, I'm just focused on that.
- A pin lesser cypress.
- So believe it or not, Mike and Noah got it exactly right.
And you're just missing the pastel.
- That was good!
That was the best one I've ever guessed.
- The last round guys, so this is the deal.
This is a double or nothing round.
Whoever loses this round,
gets locked into an enclosure.
So think well, what do you think this is.
- All-gene black- - So what is the all-gene?
Tell me.
- I think it's a pinstripe
black pastel pewter lesser cypress, wait.
- It can't be a pastel black pastel pewter,
'cause that's the same thing.
- Okay, so black pastel...
Actually, I don't think there's cypress in it.
I think it's just pin, black pastel,
or just black pewter lesser.
- I think it's a black pastel lesser cypress pewter.
- Pinstripe, black pastel, lesser.
I don't think it has pewter.
- Well, pastel and black pastel are pewter.
- I think it has pewter.
- What is it? - Did I guess?
Did I finish my guess?
- Start over 'cause I'm confused.
- I totally forgot.
Pinstripe black pastel pewter.
- Pinstripe black pastel pewter, so-
- Lesser, lesser.
- Black pewter lesser pin.
And you said the same?
- Everything but cypress, so yes.
- I don't think it has cypress.
- I said the same plus cypress.
- So he said all gene, we said everything but the cypress.
- Well guess what?
Jay was right!
It is an all-gene animal, so Mike and Noah lost.
I'm gonna go ahead and do a tiebreaker
to see which one of you guys
get locked in the enclosure of my choosing.
It's finally time to reveal the pumpkin snakes-
- [Jay, Mike And Noah] Spice latte!
- If that'll shut you guys up.
- Wait, where's my pumpkin spice latte?
Why do you have boots?
- And like promised, I actually have a handful of eggs here.
This one actually slit.
And we can see if there's actually any of
the pumpkin mutation in these animals.
This gene is a newer gene.
Matter of fact, I used to call it the new gene.
And it is just really amazing.
This one looks again, very reduced.
Now, this one actually is interesting,
'cause this looks like a pumpkin fire
without the yellow belly.
And you can kinda see the difference,
once you add that yellow belly, all that flaming.
Whereas this is just super clean and kinda interesting.
A normal fire wouldn't be nearly as clean,
and would actually have a little bit less color to it.
So that's amazing.
We have been crushing it with these guys.
Three more eggs to go.
I cannot wait to see what's inside of 'em.
Hopefully there's gonna be something really amazing.
But I'm still baffled about those white snakes.
Because outta all the animals
I've ever bred with the pumpkin,
I've never produced a leucistic before, that is just weird.
This one, okay, this one looks interesting.
This looks like a normal pumpkin
without the fire, and without the yellow belly.
So this looks like just a normal pumpkin.
And again, the way you can tell,
the reduction of pattern, the super clean look,
and the slightly more orangey look to it.
And these guys are probably gonna have
a little bit of polymorphism,
meaning that they're just gonna look a little bit different.
But that's a beautiful snake right there.
Let's go ahead and cut the next one.
- Baby Salt, I just came into work and it was in there!
- It was in there.
- What's her name?
- Bones.
- Yeah, I like that.
'Cause I wanted to name Betty White Bones,
and you guys said no, so that's a good one.
Dad, are we holding it yet?
- You can hold it.
- I love it, that's a good one.
- See what we got.
Oh, look at this, another white snake.
And look at all the paradoxing on this one.
This one has tons and tons of pattern on it.
Again, I think that that pumpkin gene
might be adding to it, I'm not 100% sure.
But again, another black-eyed leucie.
Who would've thought that I'd be getting
black-eyed leucies from the pumpkin gene?
Doesn't make any sense at all
that it's in the black-eyed leucistic complex.
Again, learning more and more about this pumpkin gene
as we go, every year is so exciting.
Last egg, let's see what's in this last egg here, come on!
We've had a lot of pumpkin animals.
And it looks like again, we crushed the odds
with what it looks like a fire pumpkin.
Doesn't look like there's a yellow belly in it.
So out of all these eggs here,
it looks like every one except for one
actually had the pumpkin gene in it.
That is some good odds, that was absolutely amazing.
I can't wait till they're all hatched out and shed.
They're gonna be beautiful!
Tie breaker round, guys, this one's a little tricky.
- I think it's a pastel.
- Fine, it's normal then.
- It's a normal, Mike- (air horn blares)
- Listen to me, I told you it was a normal!
- It looks like a pastel.
(Jay and Noah cheer) (Brian laughs)
Crap.
- Okay, Mike, the enclosure you have to stay in
for the rest of the day is Cap and Pop the blackheads.
Enjoy yourself.
I'll come back at the end of the day to let you out.
- I'm not getting in this.
- Wait a minute, didn't he say consequence?
- And I'm pretty sure Connie's full name is Constance.
So it's a constaquence.
- Oh! - You're right.
- Should we put her in the prison suit?
- I think that's only fair.
- Connie, Connie, Connie. - No, no, no.
- Mr. Brian- - I'm not doing it.
- No, Mr. Brian asked us to have you put this on.
- Put your foot in, and your other foot,
and your arm and your arm.
- And then your arm. - Not that big a deal.
- Why? - Don't ask why.
- Ask why. - I'm gonna ask why.
- Because- - Just put it on, Connie.
- Your boss told you to. - It's for the vlog.
- Where is he? - Not here,
just put it on, Connie.
- I want your boots.
- Why does she want my boots?
- If I do this, I get your boots.
- Yeah, that's fine. - Like keep them or just?
- Yeah, to have. - That's fine.
Just turn Connie the conquistador into a convict.
- Into a convict!
This is all a consequence.
All right, Connie, Dad said that he wanted you
to hang out inside this cage,
and keep the blackhead some company.
- That's so scary. - Careful,
she's right by the door. - Yeah, be careful.
Sit down, get comfortable.
- I get paid to do nothing.
- Yeah, just think of it as a good thing.
- All right, bye. - Bye Connie.
- Bye-bye.
- [Jay] I hope everything goes well for you.
- This pumpkin project is gonna be
absolutely incredible in the future.
And I'm glad to have some babies out, speaking of out.
Hope you guys enjoyed today's video.
If you did, there's a playlist
that you can watch all kinds of videos.
You can also hit that subscription button.
It would mean a lot to me.
Also, hit that like button while you're down there.
Have a wonderful day, Reptile Army.
Okay, Mike, Connie,
what the heck are you doing in the enclosure?
- The boys thought that-
- I guess I'll just see you in the morning.
- This is abusive.
