- My little Albino alligator is starting to get so huge!
(low-fi hip-hop music)
Oh my God, he loves it.
- You guys!
(airhorn blast sound-effect)
- [Brian] Get her!
(mechanical sounds and explosion)
- Hey, good morning everybody and welcome to the vlog.
What an absolutely gorgeous day here.
We are actually en route, about two hours away
from BHB and The Reptarium.
For those of you that watched the vlog yesterday
you know I was in Chicago
with David Dobrik and the gang,
So what do you say we just get this last
two hours behind us and have an amazing day together.
(low-fi hip-hop music)
And, we made it back to BHB,
and The Reptarium, and look at this
absolutely gorgeous snake.
Of course, this is a D'Albertis python
or white-lipped python.
I absolutely love this animal, I mean holy cow,
and I've mentioned before, for those of you guys
that have been updated by this guy,
that it's really rare to have them this docile.
So the fact that people can come in
and actually handle this dude is absolutely incredible.
But, ironically enough, this is a male
white-lipped, or D'albertis python.
It doesn't have a name yet, so let me know
in the comment what you think this beautiful
little monkey here should be named.
I had mentioned the other day that I was
going to weigh Salt and Pepper,
the albino and black alligators.
I mean, look at Salt, she is getting
so absolutely big and chunky.
I am so excited about her growth
and just how good she was.
Remember when I first got her?
I tell you what, I had probably three or four
sleepless nights just worrying about
this little monkey right here.
So, what do you say we go ahead
and see if she's grown.
About a week and a half ago we weighed her.
She was 74 grams.
So let's go ahead and see what she is now.
There you go little buddy.
Look it, she is 87 grams!
Alright, so she actually gained 13 grams
in just the last week and a half or so.
(squeeking sounds)
Aww, look at how cute it is.
(squeeking sounds)
Oh my god, she is so cute.
My little albino alligator is starting to get so huge!
And I tell you what, Pepper is a
chunky little monkey.
Take a look at this little dude right here.
It was 135 grams,
I know this one put on at least 20 grams or so.
I mean, look at how chunky it is.
I almost feel like I have to start
cutting him back on food, but the truth is
he looks really, really good and really healthy.
Let's see where he weighs in.
165 grams!
Oh my gosh.
That's right, I knew Pepper had grown a lot.
This little chunky dude grew 30 grams.
Oh my gosh, can you imagine him
when he's eight or ten foot long
how insane that thing is going to look.
He doesn't have the best disposition.
We're continuing to work with him,
but he is definitely a cheeky little monkey.
Nothing like Salt, who is an absolute sweetheart.
Hey guys, what's going on?
What are you, you're leaving already Noah?
- Yeah.
- [Brian] What are you, part-time?
- Yeah, actually I am part-time.
- [Brian] Oh my god, yeah that's true.
- You should know that.
(laughter)
- So, listen guys, I do a ton of tours,
you guys know that.
And, you know, I try to film them,
but I don't want to get people bored.
So, tomorrow we have two tours,
and I was thinking, maybe the one at 1:30
you guys could do together.
What do you guys think?
- Dude, I think that would be great.
I think we'd make a great team.
- Yeah.
- I'll get up there, a lot of energy, a lot of focus.
- Yeah, I mean, anything will work
with enough commission, you know.
- [Brian] Wait, wait. No, I'm not paying extra,
you guys are just doing it
out of the kindness of your heart.
- Oh.
- Okay I'll do it, I'll clock out and do it.
Oh, no, nevermind.
- [Brian] (laughing) He's a scheamer,
Noah's all about the dollars.
- Yeah well, let's do it, okay.
- [Brian] Okay, so what is going to be
special about your tour, other than mine.
Because, you know, mine is full
of happiness and positivity, love of animals.
- Yeah, yeah, I got it.
The different thing about our tour
is that, sometimes-
- Love
- That too.
Sometimes the animals actually get out,
and you have to chase them yourself.
- [Brian] What?!
- That's the fun of the game.
- That's the fun part.
- [Brian] It's almost like these animals here.
Good job, Eric.
- Wait, wait.
- [Brian] Those are supposed to be closed.
- These are all let outs.
- These are all out.
- Have you ever ate a free-range chicken egg?
Well, these are free-range snakes.
That's what I believe in.
- [Brian] Oh my gosh, alright guys, let me know
in the comments if you want to see
these guys give a tour tomorrow at 1:30.
Apparently people will be chasing stuff around.
If you guys like it, comment down below.
I will film it and we'll see.
I mean, what could possibly go wrong
with these two guys, right?
Giving my girl a banana.
Bellie, c'mon girl, c'mon,
get your banana, where's your banana?
Yum, yum, yum, banana monster,
banana monster.
(laughing)
There you go, love.
That's a lot of banana.
(laughing)
I don't know, maybe you guys
are getting sick of me feeding her bananas,
but it doesn't get old for me ever,
I love it to death.
You're so cute, Bella.
I'm gonna see if this snake wants one.
I never fed him a banana before.
I don't know if he'll like it or not.
Oh my god, he loves it, are you kidding me?
(laughing)
Wow, that is awesome.
Do you want more?
(low-fi hip-hop music)
That is so awesome.
Oh my gosh, that is the cutest thing ever.
There you go little buddy, eat all you want.
Wow, he eats more than Bella.
He gets excited.
(laughing)
- [Eric] That is cool.
- Tortises diet really consists
of more fiberish things like
different types of greenes, of course the hey,
and grasses, and stuff like that.
But every now and then you can give him
treats like bananas.
So, because I have some bananas
I'm gonna see if Speedy wants one.
Do you want one?
I don't know that he's ever eaten one
in his entire, to be honest with you.
He's had berries before.
Want to give it a go?
Yep, he seems to like it!
(low-fi hip-hop music)
Speedy, you sure have a messy face.
(laughing)
He's loving it.
And again, the big idea with this
is to only do it in moderation.
I mean, you know whether it's berries,
bananas, whatever kind of fruits,
you don't want to give it too often to them.
But once in a while, to give them
a little treat is actually kind of cool,
and really, it's maybe even a form of enrichment a little.
Just to give them something
that tastes a little bit different,
and that he seems to be really excited about.
Look at him, there he goes.
(laughs) There's a big bite for you, buddy.
Look at his face, it's so messy.
- C'mon, up.
That's my girl, that's my big girl.
Sweetie, hi.
Lori, what did you do? You got a horse.
- [Lori] (laughs) Yes, I did.
- It's been a while since I updated you guys
on this little monkey right here.
This is actually the Albino Darwin Carpet Python.
Oh my god, it's starting to get pretty big
and it is absolutely stunning.
I mean, that is a snake
that I dreamt about when I was younger.
I've been working with carpet pythons
since I was like, 16 years old,
and I remember when I saw the first
Albino Carpet Python picture,
I was absolutely blown away.
Never thinking that one day I'd be holding one,
and have one at the zoo, it is absolutely awesome.
Earlier today we were actually filming
a few things on Noa's channel,
with myself, Eric, and Noa,
and they tried to take out the rhino iguanas,
it didn't go so well.
You can check it out on Noa's channel.
But we're going to see if Lori
has a little better luck.
She seems to think she's going to be able
to tame these things, no problem.
- Hey bud, hey, hey, hey, shhhhh.
It's all about being prepared and calm.
- [Brian] Calm?
- Yeah.
- [Brian] Okay, is that Diddy Kong
or is that the other one?
- I don't know.
I don't know the difference, who's who?
- [Brian] Diddy Kong has the dark mark on his tail.
- Who named that?
- [Brian] That's Diddy Kong.
- What kind of name is that?
- [Brian] What do you mean?
- Diddy Kong?
- [Brian] Diddy Kong.
- I did not vote on that.
Is this one the calmer?
Wait, you know what, I can tell you right now
it's that camera.
Your little puff ball freaks out
everything on your camera.
There you go, good job.
I wonder what Bella would think.
- [Brian] I don't know, she'd probably try to eat it.
- Yeah, is that how they go?
- [Brian] I don't know.
I've never tried, but I don't want to.
- I don't know how they interact.
The adults with the babies, or,
she's actually eyeballing us right now.
(laughing)
He's not that bad.
- [Brian] No, that's what I'm saying, he's good.
The other one is a little crazier.
- This is the male?
- [Brian] This is the boy, yeah.
- Okay.
- [Brian] That's Diddy Kong.
The female.
- Alright, we're going in for the girl.
Oh, oh.
(airhorn blast)
- [Brian] There she goes!
(laughing)
- Oh my god, you've got to be kidding me.
(airhorn blast)
- [Brian] Get her, get her, get her!
Get her,
get her.
- Okay, shhhh, calm.
Holy- (airhorn blast sound-effect)
(laughter)
- [ Brian] Lori, what happened?
- She's fast.
(laughing)
- [Brian] Diddy Kong, did you see your crazy sister?
- That is crazy.
(laughing)
Wow, okay.
- [Brian] We got to work on her a little bit.
- Yeah, just a little bit, just a little bit.
Oh my goodness.
- [Brian] You're crazy little monkey.
- Actually, maybe we should, uh, sign her up.
Like, she could be in a race.
Are there rhino iguana races?
Because she's real fast.
(laughing)
- [Brian] We just got to work with her I guess, huh?
- Alright I'm not gonna lie, I was not prepared for that.
(laughing)
- Well, at least Eric won't feel as bad,
after seeing your performance too.
Diddy Kong's pretty good, but this,
this little monkey needs some work.
(laughing)
- Here's a snake I definitely don't show off
nearly enough, and it's something
you can come to The Reptarium and actually hold.
And it's probably one of the few places
you're ever going to get a chance
to hold a snake like this.
This is actually a 100 Flower Ratsnake,
or an Orthriophis moellendorffi.
They're from China, and they're absolutely
an amazing ratsnake.
I just love the fact that it's like a red-head,
goes into a green body,
and then towards the tail it turns red again.
Just such an unusual snake.
And this guy is actually pretty docile.
People can come and just actually
take this out and play with it.
I don't know too many places
that you can do that with a snake like this,
so I absolutely love it!
I'm literally going on two hours of sleep,
but you know, every now and then I want
to give you guys a little bit of inspirational talk.
And by inspiration, what I mean is if that you
really want to go after something in your life,
whether it's a promotion at your job,
opening up your own business,
working with animals,
doing whatever your dream is,
I always tell you guys the same thing:
work harder than everyone else.
Knowing I drove all the way out to Chicago
just to collaborate with David Doberick last night
which meant that we were only going to get
two hours of sleep last night
before we had to get back to the grind
and do it today, but you know what,
instead of complaining about it,
I just said let's just do it,
let's have a good time, put a smile on our face,
really enjoy the experience,
and hey, listen, we'll get some sleep
later on tonight.
So whether you're studying for a test
or have to go to work after a long night
of taking care of your animals,
or whatever the case may be,
the point is you have to grind,
you have to work harder than everyone else.
That's how you succeed.
And by the way, this is one of Lucy's babies
that we're raising up.
Isn't she looking absolutely incredible?
So the only real recipe for success that I have
is, one, do something that you absolutely love
and are passionate about.
And two, work harder than everyone.
Sure, I could be crying all day,
going, oh my god I only got a couple hours
of sleep, and I had to drive 11 hours
over the last 24 hours,
to do an hour of collabing with a YouTuber.
But the fact is, is I'm going to come in here
I'm going to be in a good mood,
I'm going to smile,
and I am just going to get stuff done.
Because that's the way you're successful.
Anyway, I am sorry to digress
for you guys on that type of thing,
but every now and then I feel like it needs to be said.
Get out there and do something,
get out there and love your life,
because hey, what else are you gonna do?
And with that being said guys,
I am going to go ahead and end the vlog,
and wish you guys an absolutely amazing
day, evening, whenever you happen to be watching.
As always, your support means the world to me
and I truly love you guys so much.
Can you do me a couple favors before we get out of here?
Can you smash that like button
for Savvy The Tortoise?
