- What's up everybody?
Dave Womach here from BirdTricks.
Today I am in sunny South Florida
to meet up with my good buddy, Tyler Nolan.
If you guys didn't see,
he recently sent my daughter a snake.
It's a Christmas sweater.
(Jamie and Capri giggling)
- [Capri] No, no, no, no, no, no!
- Which was awesome, but the problem is
that she's kinda hooked now.
And gonna be honest, I'm a little hooked too.
So I'm super excited to go check out his snakes,
and on top of that, he got Toruk back,
and I heard he's also got a couple of cockatoos,
maybe another macaw, so we're gonna go check it out.
(upbeat music)
(record scratching) (crickets chirping)
I'm an hour early, so I'm waiting.
But everything around here is closed.
Jamie is headed down with Ashlyn
to go work on another collab
that I think you guys are gonna be pretty stoked about.
Let's just give a little hint.
She's really excited to see Rex the Chameleon.
That's the only hint you get, though.
All right, I made it.
Now I just gotta find the front door.
Kind of funny, my Uber driver...
Ooh, that's a rough start.
Uber Driver actually has a dog boarding business,
so I'd be able to connect Tyler with him.
That's the last time I was here.
It was a while ago, right?
- Ooh, oh. - Well, it wasn't even here,
it was the other place.
- About two years ago. - But we worked a little bit
with Toruk, and you got two fire chickens.
What happened?
- Two fire chickens.
So I lived in Boca.
Boca does not like birds,
especially really loud, big birds
that scream bloody murder all the time.
So I had to, not re-home them,
but they had to go to my friend Tyrone's house for a while
'cause he's got a bunch of birds,
and he's lived somewhere where nobody cares.
So I just had to really, had to keep them somewhere else
until I was able to buy a property
to where I could actually have them.
But now they're home, or she is home,
and then she came with a boy, who was, I guess,
her little friend in the cage with her.
But he's really mean.
He does not let me touch him.
So let's go in here real fast,
just to get in here. - I'll be staying out here.
I'm coming in.
- Yeah, come in.
(Dave grunts)
You just gotta watch out for this guy.
So this is Tuuk and Toruk.
Tuuk is just, we've renamed him.
I don't know what his name was beforehand,
but obviously Toruk is named after "Avatar".
Come on, step up. Oh, are you gonna be mean to me
'cause Dave is here?
Come here.
Come on, baby.
Come on.
Come, be sweet to me, please.
Please be sweet.
Please, please. - I'm gonna get some video
of this body language. - Oh, you're scary.
Why? Why the body language?
Why are you doing that?
Yeah, that is not...
That's not positive body language.
(Dave laughing)
(laughs) For the people watching.
Normally her feathers are down and she's super sweet to me.
I think she's just more nervous about Dave being in the cage
and having cameras around.
Like, she's used to cameras, but she's not really used to-
- [Dave] Tuuk is super heightened.
- Yeah, she's not...
Yeah, Tuuk is- - So that's
definitely contributing.
- [Tyler] Yeah, his eyes are getting all crazy.
- Okay, I'm gonna keep the slow-mo camera on Tuuk.
- Step up, come on.
Step up, please. - Gonna keep my eyes
on him too. - Come on.
Show everybody how sweet you are.
Of course you're not going to.
- [Dave] And this is a pretty nice size setup here.
We were talking a little bit about cage sizes,
and you got a eight-by-eight setup, which-
- [Tyler] And it's just temporary too.
Yeah, so eventually, obviously I have
about three acres here, I want to...
Have you seen "White House on the Hill"?
They don't have the aviary set up yet.
- Okay. - But dude, their aviary
is probably a half of an acre.
Huge. - That's awesome.
- It's 30 feet high, 60 feet wide,
circular so birds can just fly in it.
Eventually, I want something set up like that here,
like a big aviary so that way my macaws
can fly inside of it. - That'd be cool.
That'd be super cool. - It's gonna be
really, really cool.
- One of the main reasons that I came down to see Tyler
was to actually hand-deliver a whole bunch of our new toys.
I didn't get a lot of video footage
of his birds playing with the toys,
since that's really the highlight of his video.
I'll leave a link to his video in the description.
So now we're onto Jamie's favorite.
What you got there? - Cockatoos!
Prince.
(upbeat music)
Yeah, you wanna dance?
(upbeat music continues)
Dance, dance, dance.
You are crazy, high energy.
- Hello.
Oh, you wanna say hi?
Hi, everybody.
Say, "Hello, everybody.
Hi, YouTube, how are you?"
- [Dave] Why the heck did you end up with cockatoos?
- So, both rescues.
Owners were a little bit on the older side
and just couldn't really care for them
the way that they should.
They were in smaller cages, indoors,
and they just weren't getting
the attention that they needed.
And she's crazy.
She screams like...
When the sun is going down, she loses her mind.
So their owners just couldn't
really take them screaming anymore, and hit me up.
And they were like, "Oh, you love birds.
You want some more crazy ones?"
And I was like, "Yeah, sure.
Anything to make my life a little harder
is definitely what I want."
But it's worth it. (Dave chuckling) I love 'em.
I remember when I told you guys that I got a cockatoo,
you guys were like, "What?" And I was like, "Yeah, two."
And you were like, "What, two?
Two of them?" - I'd have to look for it,
but I distinctly filmed Jamie's reaction,
and she's in the car, and I was like,
"Tyler just got another cockatoo," and she's like...
There's just like a sigh of disappointment. (chuckles)
- Look at this.
- [Dave] So Tyler Nolan texted, he's getting Toruk back.
- Really?
- Yeah.
And he also got two cockatoos.
♪ Or am I origami ♪
- Why?
(Dave laughing)
- They're so awesome.
They just let you do whatever you want with them.
And she's (kisses) the sweetest (kisses)
little thing ever.
Like, how do you not love this?
You're so cute. (kisses)
Even though you're crazy and you scream at me,
I love you and you're adorable, right?
Right, Chloe?
(upbeat music)
Spoiled little birds.
Spoiled birds, we're actually gonna go
to the Renaissance Festival next week.
But I'm gonna bring Prince with us,
just 'cause people love Prince, and he loves people.
Chloe does not like females or little kids.
Yeah, you just wanna dance.
Hey.
So Chloe is 14 years old, Prince is 24 years old.
My nephew just turned six.
So I brought Prince to the birthday party.
We brought a bunch of alligators,
and snakes and stuff for the kids,
and did like a whole birthday party thing for them.
But I brought Prince, and that's the first time
I've ever brought Prince around other people,
and a lot of other people, at a birthday party, okay?
And everybody was just walking up, telling him to step up,
he would step up right on everybody,
let everybody touch him.
He only bit one kid.
No, no.
Please, no. - About to sneak attack.
- No. Okay.
(Dave laughing)
All right, well, let's go play with some snakes,
since these guys are being real dangerous right now.
(Dave laughing)
(loud techno music)
High energy, such an aggressive eater.
Look at that!
Dude, relax.
Damn.
I got bit by a king cobra, 2016, losing my index finger.
(music drowns out speech)
These guys are more on the rare side.
Came over to the States from Europe.
Europe was the first (music drowns out speech).
(loud techno music continues)
(music drowns out speech)
This is Ted, acting like a cobra.
(loud techno music continues)
This is a false water cobra,
that's why they call it false water cobra.
False cobra, false (music drowns out speech).
(loud techno music continues)
- [Dave] Yeah.
(loud techno music continues)
(music drowns out speech)
(loud techno music relaxes)
(loud techno music intensifies)
(loud techno music slows down)
(loud techno music continues)
(loud techno music intensifies)
(loud techno music fades)
- Well, that wraps up our adventure with Tyler Nolan.
I'm back in the car with the rest of the team.
We got Jamie, we got Ashlyn.
- Hello. - We're all a bit exhausted.
But definitely go check out Tyler, his page,
if you wanna see more incredible snake stuff.
And I got to feed an alligator, so, kinda cool.
But hope you guys enjoyed.
- [Jamie] What?
- Let us know what you liked most in the comments.
- An alligator?
- Yeah.
(Ashlyn giggles)
- Too cool. - Guess what I fed it.
- Fish.
- Baby chicks.
- Oh no, you didn't. - No.
- Dave. - Baby chicks.
- Oh no, you didn't. - No.
- Dave. - Baby chicks.
- Oh no, you didn't. - No.
- No, you didn't. - No.
- Dave. - Baby chicks.
- No, you didn't. - No.
- Dave.
(chilled techno music)
- Cool it.
- [Dave] That's amazing.
(chilled techno music continues)
