- [Brian ] Oh my Gosh, look at that!
Right off the rip!
Look at that!
- [Brian] He might bite my ear, I'm pretty scared honestly.
(electronic music)
- Hey hey, good morning everybody, welcome to the VLOG.
I hope the start to your day is absolutely incredible.
Today, you're going to get a little bit of BHP,
of course a bunch of The Reptarium
even some egg cutting, so there's gonna
be something for everyone, you know
a typical day here in my life.
I have loved my time over at The Reptarium,
you know with people, building things out,
moving animals over, but you know what,
I still love BHP.
Take a look at one of these crazy monkeys right here.
Of course this is one of my Norther Blue Tongue Skinks
that we produced earlier this year.
Can you believe how big this thing is getting?
And oh my god is it gorgeous.
I am pretty excited right now guys,
because this is the first eggs of the reptarium.
What do we have Jessica?
- [Jessica] We actually have some gargoyle eggs.
- Oh my gosh--
- I wasn't expecting.
- I know, it's totally crazy.
We didn't think when we put the Gargoyles over here that
they were going to have eggs
because they were basically almost done laying,
we've had a lot of eggs this year.
But let's go ahead and see what we have here.
Oh my god, that's so exciting.
- [Jessica] Yeah, I wasn't expecting and I looked
at her today and was like you
look like you lost some weight.
- [Brian] So you thought there's gotta be some eggs.
- [Jessica] Yeah but there they are back there.
- [Brian] Oh my gosh, look at that guys!
Oh my gosh, two eggs, how do they look?
Do they look alright?
- They look pretty good to me.
I'll have to candle them,
but no, they look pretty good.
- Oh my gosh, how exciting is that guys?
The very first eggs of The Reptarium
and we do hope to breed a lot of stuff over here
because obviously big cages, I want to get
another Emerald Tree Boa, that's a female.
Goes of course for the female green tree python,
I'd like to get a male.
There's a whole bunch of stuff that we can breed here.
Even the dark frogs eventually
I hope that we can breed here so.
But this is it, the first ever eggs at the Reptarium.
Good job Jessica!
- Yeah, so exciting !
- [Brian] That's awesome and Speedy is happy too.
Taking a quick break before we head back to The Reptarium.
I have a clutch of four eggs, it's actually a
Pewter Bee, which is actually Pastel,
a Cinnamon and a Spider and it's bred to a Bananna.
You guys know I love Banana/Cinny stuff.
So let's go ahead and see what's in these eggs.
In this first egg I hope we get some Cinny/Banana stuff,
because it's just so pretty.
What do we have in the first egg?
Oh my gosh, look at that, right off the rip!
Look at that!
Oooo hooo doggy!
That is actually a Pewter/Banana.
So that is a Pastel, it's a Cinnamon
and it's a Banana.
What an absolute ripper!
Whooo Doggy, let's hope we keep getting those odds!
Egg number two, what do we have in egg number two?
Oh my gosh, I just love cutting snake eggs.
Oh okay, well we don't have a Banana.
This is actually what they call a Cinna-Bee,
which is a Cinnamon and a Spider mix,
which is still really beautiful.
It would have been really nice
if it would have been a Banana,
but hey, we still have two eggs to go.
This one's kind of a boob egg, you can see
what this is over on this side.
So let's see what ends up happening here.
It's going to be a little bit of a smaller baby typically,
because those boob eggs kind of are that way.
Huh, it's definitely not a Banana.
What do we have?
Oh it looks like just literally a normal Spider Ball Python.
Which is still cool, I mean don't get me wrong.
You always want to get a bunch
of combinations and stuff like that.
It's a little anti-climactic when you're
breeding like five genes together
and you only get a single-gene animal.
But hey, we have one last egg,
let's hope it's an absolute stunner.
Okay, let's see what we get here,
come on pleases, something amazing!
Okay, right off the rip I can see it's not a Banana,
which is a little bit of a bummer,
but it's still a really beautiful snake right here.
This is just a Pewter Ball Python right here.
Whoo doggy though,those things are absolutely incredible.
And the Pewter is just basically a Pastel and a Cinnamon,
but it has that silvery beautiful look to it so.
Like I said, I wanted to take a quick break,
head over here, cut a clutch of eggs,
kind of break up the monotony of the day.
Back over to The Reptarium.
We got Speedy running around The Reptarium today.
Noah--
- Yeah?
- You've got Nova out?
- Yeah, he might bite my ear, I'm pretty scared honestly.
- [Eric] He's not going to bite your ear!
- I mean--
- [Eric] He's just chillin out man!
- [Brian] I know right?
And you've got Tazzy?
- Oh yeah, Big Taz!
- [Brian] Are these guys here like your favorites?
- Uh, ah, I like the big ole black monitor,
but I'm not touching her.
- [Eric] Yeah, uh no.
- [Brian] You mean Ubusuku?
- Oh yeah, Ubusuku--
- [Eric] (laughing)
- [Noah] She is my favorite.
- So, so a lot of people were asking this weekend,
are you guys going to be at The Reptarium
so people can hang out with you guys?
- I'll be here, I will be here.
- [Brian] From day to night?
- Next week I'm the worker here, everyday.
- [Eric] Everyday?
- So you'll see me.
Oh that's right, because Laurie's actually out of town,
so I need your guys' help, I can count on you guys?
- Yep, oh yeah!
- If Eric isn't on his honeymoon,
you know he's always-- it's always an excuse with this guy.
- Yeah, I know, I'm sorry, I just need to man up.
And I'm a company man, I can't be,
ya know, jerking around here so.
- [Brian] (laughing)
- [Brian] So, you guys can come see
Eric and Noah.
Of course we've got Nova and Taz here too.
And yes, baby clobbers are continuing to hatch here at BHB.
Take a look at this right here.
Oh my gosh, a whole swatch of Mexican Black Kingsnakes.
That is awesome, because again I always say
that every time we get them, they start eating,
we put them on the website, they're sold out
literally within hours.
So it looks like we have a whole bunch here.
Looks like there's at least a good eight or nine babies
that will be available in maybe
another two or three weeks after they get a couple meals in.
But, Oh my gosh, they are so incredible aren't they?
Guess what guys, we have the newlyweds here.
How awesome is that? It's good to have you guys back.
I did want to bring up something.
So you guys were going on a honeymoon, but--
- Yes, so sorry to all the people that are in
the Carolinas man.
They go flooded out and the hotel just opened up
what was it, yesterday?
- [Mary] Yeah.
And their like there's so much flooding
and there's so many road closures,
so I don't know what we're going to do now.
- Oh my gosh, so these guys literally canceled
their honeymoon because the Carolinas
were flooded from the hurricane.
So I want to ask you guys, does anyone out there
have like a really cool vacation type spot
that you can hook these guys up with
in the next week or so?
Something that's awesome, you guys want to see
animals, gators, beaches?
- Animals, gators, get some hands-on .
- If anyone has anything that you can help these
guys out with, go down the the comments,
emails us, something like that.
I want to make sure these guys do a honeymoon.
I don't want them to miss out
because I know from experience that
me and Lori went on a honeymoon
and it was the most amazing experience ever.
So please help us out here.
- Thank you!
- [Brian] Yeah, no problem.
- And thanks everyone too for,
you know, all the nice comments
on Facebook and Instagram, so thank you everyone.
- [Brian] It's awesome.
It was a great wedding, it really was.
So do me a favor, help these guys out, alright?
So more Clobbers that are hatching
that I'm super excited about,
because it's been a couple years since we hatched these.
Of course are these Ghost Brooks Kingsnakes,
oh my gosh, they are so incredible!
The Ghost Brooks Kings are actually
a hypo-melanistic and an anerythristic.
And way back, I don't even know, 15, 16 years ago,
we actually produced the very first
Ghost Brooks Kings ever and all these years later
it's cool that we finally are hatching again.
And like I said, I think it's been like
two or three years since we produced them.
I'm not even sure why we haven't
been breeding them to be honest with you.
But it sure is nice to see that they're hatching again.
(house music)
A lot of people have asked me about arachnids,
like my Rose Hair Zombie here, and of course
Queen Elizabeth that's still out on the West Coast L.A.
I'm thinking that I'm going to get her back
and I'm going to get Zombie here and we're going
to do a rack right here of arachnids.
I want to know what you guys think about that.
I don't know, we'll do some cool stuff that you
guys can handle when you come to The Reptarium
and then we'll some kind of cool stuff
that's just on display like, big Goliath Bird Eaters
and some of the ornamentals, maybe even OBTs.
I don't even know, maybe even a scorpion or two,
I'm not 100% sure,
but I figure we can have maybe 10 or 12 arachnids
type stuff if you are interested in that.
Let me know in the comments if you think that's good
or if you guys are a little bit too afraid for it.
But as for now, me and Zombie are just hanging out.
And guess what guys, got some more Mexican Black Kingsnakes.
Oh my gosh, there's some more hatching here.
There was two, four, six, seven eggs.
So it looks like we have three or four
of em out here and a handful of eggs
that are due to hatch.
So once again, if you're interested
in Mexican Black Kingsnakes,
it looks like we're going to have,
I don't know, maybe 17 or 18 of them
available here in another week and a half or two weeks.
Just make sure to contact Lori
if you want to get on the waiting list.
RJ was out at The Reptarium last night
and oh my gosh, was he a hit!
Unbelievable!
He was so good with everybody.
One of the last things that I really need to do today
over at The Reptarium, is remember
those nozzles there for spraying?
And we set them all up and then we realized we didn't have
enough pressure with the pumps.
So my buddy Rich over at Reptile Basics
sent me another pump, so now we have two pumps right here.
So basically now what I have to do
is actually split the lines.
I don't have as many nozzles on each pump
and then run the line over there,
plug it in and hopefully this is going to work.
(Laughs) I have no idea.
Hopefully we can get some misters,
because we have been hand misting everyday,
it takes a lot of time and energy.
So it would be really nice to have these misters fixed.
So basically it's just another boring thing I just --
So basically I just have to count the nozzles,
kind of chop it half, somehow split it off
and run a second line over there to the second pump
and then hopefully it will work.
So I just basically separated the front half
from the back half.
So I'm going to test the front half out
and it's basically 16 nozzles.
There's 16 nozzles on one pump
and there's 17 nozzles on the other pump.
So if this one works I'll go ahead and line
the other one over to the second pump.
But I figure I just test this one,
if that fails, then I don't know
what the heck I'm going to do.
Okay, mission accomplished, it looks like
everything is misting really well
which is absolutely incredible,
you can see the misters going full blast here,
that's incredible.
And I think it's really funny,
because when these frogs actually get misted,
believe it or not, it seems to bring them out.
I don't know exactly why.
Look at how amazing this looks!
Look at all the little frogs are out right now!
It's almost like they think, "alright, it's feeding time".
So I'll go ahead, shut this off,
go ahead, feed the frogs,
and then try to hook up the second half.
Just so you understand, I actually have to
hook a line up right where Karma's cage is,
and then bring it all the way up top,
we'll come all the way over here,
and we essentially run right along the top of this wall here
into that back room drop down.
That's where our water will be
that will actually spray the entire building.
(house music)
And there it goes, the second ones are working!
It looks like they're working all over.
We got sprays all over the place, a success!
It's just going to make our life easier
and the animals even healthier.
So now all we have to do is set them up on a timer.
We'll probably have them go of three to five times a day
for one minute to one and a half minutes.
So we are good to go, Karma is going to be happy,
all the other little guys are going to be happy too,
So this is absolutely amazing.
With that said guys, I am going to go ahead
and end the VLOG here.
We accomplished a lot here today.
Tomorrow's task is to try to finish out this
whole wall right here and start to
actually get it all kind of fixed up and looking good,
and hopefully get some animals
in there in the next couple days,
so I hope that you will join me for that.
But until then, I wish you an absolutely incredible
evening, day, whenever you happen to be watching.
Your guys' support means the world to me
and I really truly do love you guys so much.
Do me a couple favors before we get outta here,
can you smash that like button,
turn those post notifications on
so you know when I upload a video,
which is every day at nine o'clock in the morning
Eastern Standard Time.
Remember to be kind to someone today
and I promise, I will see you guys tomorrow.
- [Brian] And literally at the end of every night,
this is what I do.
No matter what is going on,
no matter how busy, how late I'm here,
it doesn't matter, I'm going to take one spin
around the building with the lights off
because I love it in here.
Okay, now the VLOG is really ending.
Okay, goodnight.
