- Ole Stinkin' Mary !
It's gonna get mad, it's gonna get out!
- [Brian] You helped once, one time.
- Once?
I was over there at least five times.
- So this is the first time Ben and Jerry have been out.
(upbeat music)
Hey good morning everybody, welcome to the vlog.
What in the world is going on?
I guess Winter is hitting.
I hope the start of your day is incredible.
This is actually pretty awesome.
I'm pretty happy right now.
What do you say we head over shop
and just have an amazing wintery day?
But I always say at bhb in the Reptarium
it's always summer time.
It's always 80 or 82 degrees and nice and humid in here.
I absolutely love the warm weather and Ben and Jerry are
settling in really nicely.
They seem to be doing absolutely incredible
and tonight is their big reveal here at the Reptarium,
we are open up and for the very first time
people can come and actually
see these two little monkeys right here.
I am so excited to share this.
Now, I'm not going to be pulling them out a ton
this weekend obviously because I want them to settle in.
I don't want them to over stress,
but, you know, they will definitely be here for you guys
to take a look at.
It's gonna be absolutely incredible.
And by the way, speaking of incredible.
Do you know that this is the eight hundredth vlog?
That's right. Today, eight hundred.
That's absolutely crazy.
And speaking of incredible,
take a look at these snakes I just picked up.
Oh my gosh. These are little Bamboo Ratts,
but these are what they would call
a Porphyraceus Laticinctus.
There's 3 subspecies that I picked up.
This one is absolutely ridiculous.
Then there's the Porphyraceous Pulchra
which is banded just like that laticinctus,
but doesn't have those kind of orange yellow bands in 'em.
And these bamboo rats do really, really well.
They need it a little bill cooler
and a little bit higher humidity.
But, Oh my gosh they are such cool little animals
and once they are gone,
they are just little monsters for sure.
I cannot wait to raise these up.
And then lastly, this is actually
a Porphyraceus Coxi.
Look at those racing stripes right there.
Oh my gosh. And again these are typically
all kind of generically called Bamboo Rats
or Asian Bamboo Rats.
But wow, what incredible snakes.
Again this has been something I've wanted
to work with for a long, long time.
So, I'm super excited to finally have gotten them.
By the way, I'm going to give you guys
a little bit of a sneak peak about what
you're going to see tomorrow.
We're unveiling the gators for the gator tank.
But, this is a cute little monkey right here.
But, that's not all that I've got coming in.
Savannah's coming from Gatorland.
We're going to have an absolutely amazing event tomorrow.
Not only showing people off our new gators,
which are going to be a little surprise
to some of you guys.
But also spending the evening doing a kind of special event
after the Reptarium is open.
Look at how cute these little dudes are.
But, trust me there's more than just this one.
I've been feeding the Black Retic up a bunch.
Can you guys see the iridescence in this thing?
Oh my God. It is looking so good.
The more chunky it's getting, the more iridescent.
I think next week we're probably going to put
it over at the Reptarium.
So, again if you guys come out and visit
you'll be able to see this beautiful snake.
Oh my God. I cannot wait until this thing
is like 8 or 10 feet long.
It is gonna be so incredible.
We have a couple hours until the Reptarium opens up.
And it is going to be Yeti's first night
here at the Reptarium.
Yeti, of course is a Blizzard Corn that
we got this week donated to us.
And I am absolutely overjoyed with how awesome it is.
What a cool, beautiful snake and a great disposition.
So, people are gonna get a chance to meet this one tonight.
But of course the one everybody wants
to meet is gonna be Ben and Jerry.
It is going to be such an exciting thing
showing that off for the very first time.
Eric, you're actually working the Reptarium tomorrow, right?
- Yes, I'll be there tomorrow.
- Okay, so you can definitely come
and hang out with Eric at least you know
once a weekend or so you guys are gonna be around.
But, I think one of the things that was interesting
is that Eric, actually brought up an animal
that he wanted us to get for the Reptarium
- Yes
and that didn't go over really well with Lori.
That was what? A Bush Viper?
- It was a Bush Viper.
- [Brian] A Bush Viper?
- The guys still got one. You know what I was
- [Brian] You got one? - No, no, no, no, no I wish I
Mary, you know Ole Stinkin' Mary?
It's gonna get mad
it's gonna get out.
I was thinking me and you, we'll throw down halfsies
on a storage unit and we'll keep all our
venomous snakes in there.
- (laughing)
we're not keeping, we're not keeping
a venomous collection in a storage
Oh yeah secretly that's the
- That's the key word. Me and you man.
We could throw it on a fat one for a hundred bucks a month.
Fifty a piece.
- (laughing) His ideas are worse than mine.
- I've got some good ones up here.
- You've got some good ones, okay I'll think about this
- Get back to me on it. - I'll get back to you, okay
Do you guys believe it, how big Cheetoh
is getting already?
We've only had him for a couple of weeks
I swear to God.
He's already grown like fifty percent.
What a cool animal.
And again, I know people are gonna love him tonight
when the Reptarium opens. He's always one of those animals
that everyone wants to see
because he is just such a cool, beautiful animal.
But also a great disposition.
Do you guys remember David Hisselhoff?
This was that little Albino Burmese Python.
Which will eventually be Sunrise's boyfriend.
This thing got huge.
I mean literally like 2 months ago it was eating big mice.
Look at this thing now.
It's growing like a weed.
I find myself saying this is my favorit exhibit,
just like I used to always say this is my favorite animal.
It's kind of like the same thing,
but every time I walk by this animal
I'm just absolutely in awe.
Of course this is an Albino Darwin's Carpet Python.
I mean look at how gorgeous that snake looks.
And a lot of times it's hanging out right there
up on the rock. And I've mentioned this in the past
that I love the fact that you know
this is kind of what you would see
out in the wild.
When I was up in Darwin Australia
I actually caught some Carpet Pythons and they were
on a similar type of thing.
Of course there were some trees and stuff like that
but they love to climb like this
and look at his head down like this,
that's a little bit of a hunting posture there.
If I threw something down here,
he's gonna come out and get it
but what a gorgeous snake.
One of the dream morphs when it came to Ball Pythons for me
is always the Lavender Piebold Ball Pythons
or what they call dreamscicles.
And to think that I now have a couple big females
one that's ready to breed and one that's
not too far behind it is pretty awesome.
Years ago Ralph Davis produced the first one
and like I said and termed it a dreamscicle
which is just 2 recessive mutations lavender and piebold.
But together they make an unbelievable animal.
And I'm excited to finally have them after all these years.
I still love Ball Pythons guys even though I don't show them
as much as I used to show them.
I'm still loving them.
We're growing kind of new groups of new things
that are really exciting.
So, we should have a really good breeding season
this year coming up.
Everything seems to be in good shape over here
at BHB.
So what do you say we head over to the Reptarium
and get ready to open up for a fun filled night
of people coming in.
Hopefully, enjoying the animals and meeting Ben and Jerry.
So this is the first time Ben and Jerry have been out.
What do you think? You guys are all the way from Chicago
- (nodding) mmhmm
- {Brian] seeing Ben and Jerry
- You guys are from Cleveland is It?
- Northeast Ohio
- [Brian] Northeast Ohio?
And Panama is in the house over here.
Oh my gosh. What do you guys think?
- It's the best thing ever
- (laughter) That's awesome.
Yeah it's nice to be able to share.
Of course we've got Brennan here. What do you think man?
- Dude it's awesome.
- [Brian}Isn't It Crazy?
- I mean just going from cookies and cream
to holding, to be honest this is awesome.
- (music playing)
- Kind of winding the night down at the Reptarium.
People really loved Ben and Jerry.
Had a really good night.
Lori played hooky tonight.
Didn't work tonight at all at the Reptarium.
You left it all to me.
- Okay, number one that's not true
because I got called over there several times.
- That's not true. No one called you over.
- Oh my God. You would not stop calling me
while I was over here trying to work on getting
more Leopard Geckos on the site.
Which is a necessity.
- She's making things up again
- You know what? Alright.
- Okay, you helped once, one time.
- Once? I was over there at least five times, at least.
- That's because you missed me, because you missed me.
So Lori is getting more Leopard Geckos on the site,
which is good because we need them on the site
Oh I didn't mention this.
I should probably mention this.
What is this like our seventh or something
seventh annual Black Friday sale coming up.
- More than that but yeah.
- Eight, nine, ninth annual whatever it is nine ten
I don't even know
Anyway Black Friday coming up everything is on sale
Every single animal has at least some discount.
Even if it's ten percent,
but there are some animals that are going to be like
fifty percent off.
We do it every single year.
So make sure you check out bhbreptiles.com
definitely follow that.
Is there like an email sign up or something?
- Yes. Go on to the website and it pops right up
you can sign up for our email list.
- Okay good. So do that.
So I'm gonna go over to the Reptarium.
Wrap things up over there and call it a night.
And that brings another night to a conclusion
here at the Reptarium.
It was a fun night.
But tomorrow is the night I have been waiting for
for quite a while.
That tank right there has
some aligator reveals.
I can't wait to share with you with what I am getting
as well as Savannah from Gatorland is coming up,
my good friend. We are gonna have a blast.
She actually hangs out here tomorrow
then again we have a special event.
Then Savannah and myself are actually heading to Chicago
to go visit a couple of places.
It is going to be really cool for a day
and then back here and back to the normalcy.
Regardless I hope that you enjoyed today's vlog.
As always your support means the world to me.
Truly, truly love you guys so much
and I wish you an absolutely amazing day.
