- Oh my gosh!
Oh my gosh!
Look at this guys, it's a jet-black alligator!
(chirping)
- What do they call that?
(frenzy music)
- Hey, good morning, everybody!
Welcome to the vlog!
I have been so excited about this day,
I'm able to share what I have with you guys.
That's right, we get a couple
incredible alligators in today.
My friend Savannah from Gatorland is coming in,
so she's gonna be here to only reveal these tonight
to The Reptarium people and folks that are coming.
But also I get to surprise Savannah with
what is going in that tank.
She doesn't know what I got.
It was incredible!
We are gonna have a great time with that.
And then tonight, we have a special event
after hours at The Reptarium,
where Savannah and myself are hanging out,
doing a bunch of alligator stuff.
It's gonna be absolutely incredible,
and I hope that you guys have an incredible day too.
Are you ready for some fun time?
Let's go get Savannah!
And, guess who's here?
- It is so cold!
(laughing)
- How are you doing? - How are you?
- Oh my gosh, I know!
- It's good to see you!
- Yeah, it's cold right?
- I know!
Even walking to the airport I was like,
"What is this, what is this?"
- Well the good news,
it's like 80-something degrees in The Reptarium.
- Okay, good deal, let's do it!
Amazing!
- [Brian] Welcome to my jungle.
- Oh my gosh!
This is so great!
- So obviously Savannah is like an expert
with crocodilians and stuff like that,
but I remember when I first met you,
you were kinda in love with monitors.
- Love them!
I have three right now at my house.
I do love monitors.
This is a really awesome monitor, he is so sweet.
- I know he's so chill.
And I'll tell ya Elvis seems to love Savannah too.
Because he's just been chilling out
here for like 10 minutes.
I did want to show Savannah what we got
as far as alligators go.
Of course, Gatorland sent me a couple alligators,
but we got some other stuff.
So before I show her this,
we actually unboxed them yesterday.
I wanna show you that, and then,
I'm gonna show Savannah after that.
So check this out!
I am beyond excited right now.
Oh I've been waiting for this box!
That top box!
- That alligator.
- Yes, how do you know?
Does it say alligator on it?
- It says alligator on it.
- Oh my gosh!
- An American alligator.
- Oh, I am excited about this.
Okay guys.
I literally I'm kinda shaking.
I'm like, all freaked out.
- I don't understand.
- I'm all freaked out
So just to let you know,
shipping something that is expensive
and something like that,
where you ship your reptiles,
we ensure that if anything were to have happened.
So he wants us to heat-gun it,
because they're using kinda of an interesting
heat-packing type of thing, that is not
like a normal heat-pack.
So he wants to make sure that he knows
what the temperature is.
Oh my God, please let these things be good!
(laughs)
You gotta remember I've been--
- You're hugging and caressing a box,
just open it!
- I have been dreaming about having
something like this forever.
I never thought in a million years
that I would have this.
Okay.
- Maybe I should be the one with the knife.
- Why is this not opening?
- Probably because there is a lot of tape.
- There is a lot of tape on this box.
- Jeez!
Okay, he's never opened a box in his life obviously.
- Okay, first thing we're gonna do is,
I'm gonna open, I'm gonna temp gun.
Okay it's 68 degrees,
so 68 degrees in the box, which is fine.
He sent me some food for the alligators.
- Aww that's sweet.
- Which is awesome.
Oh my gosh!
- I don't see what the big deal is.
- Oh my!
- Are they mean?
- I don't care!
- I do! - I don't know, I don't care!
I'm gonna show you this one first guys,
because this one is crazy.
- That one looks bigger, or maybe just 'cause it's darker.
- It's a little bit older, this one is a little bit older.
This is about three weeks older.
- I just don't get it.
I'm not gonna lie, this things are not my thing.
- What, are you kidding me!?
- No, they're not, I'm not a gator--
- Alright, it's 69 degrees on the heat-pack,
so basically what it ended up happening was 69 degrees
on the heat-pack, 68 degrees in the actual thing.
Oh my God, this things are incredible.
Guys I am freaking out.
- Don't let it run away.
- Oh my, what!?
You gotta admit that thing is freaking awesome!
Isn't it?
- It's different.
- Look at this guy, it's a jet-black alligator.
A melanistic alligator.
Oh my gosh.
It has jet-black eyes.
- This has just popped out, popped out of nowhere.
- No, no, he bred them,
it's a recessive, he produced them,
he bought some melanistics,
he raised them up, and bred het to something, I don't know.
If I'm not mistaken these are the only ones
that have ever been bred selectively.
But I'm not 100% sure.
Oh my gosh!
Is that the cutest-- - It doesn't seem to be bitey.
- Did you hear the other one?
The other one is like.
Oh my gosh!
They are so perfect!
You hold this, you hold this.
- It's not gonna bite me?
- It's not gonna bite you.
- I swear to God, if he bites me.
- Okay guys, are you ready for this one?
Oh my gosh!
It's freaking-- - It's so black,
and the eyes are black.
I'm not gonna lie, I think this one is cooler
than that one.
I'm not a big albino fan.
- Well I've been saying that, to be honest with you,
I think that I probably will like
the black one better too.
But I think the albino is just like,
it's an albino alligator!
You know, I mean it's...
- It is, it's chirping or whatever they do.
(laughs)
- Listen.
(chirping)
- What do they call that?
I don't know, I just think it's cool.
- Oh my gosh guys, an albino alligator!
There it is, that was what the secret was for next door.
It was that we were getting an albino
and a black alligator.
And to the best of my knowledge,
this will be the only place in the world,
that has albino and a black-- - He is chirping too.
(laughing)
- Oh my God.
It will be the only place in the world,
to the best of my knowledge that has an albino
and a jet-black one on display at The Reptarium.
Oh my god, I'm freaking out!
This is cool!
I couldn't even sleep last night,
I'm not even kidding, I was freaking out so much.
- I guess it is.
(chirping)
(laughing)
Double chirping.
(laughing) (chirping)
- Oh my gosh, that is freaking awesome.
(chirping) (laughing)
That is awesome.
So there it is guys, when you come to The Reptarium,
You're gonna get a chance to see this two little monkeys.
Oh my gosh!
- So names, Ebony and Ivory?
- I don't know, maybe.
I don't know, let me know guys.
I mean, this is a big one.
- Yin and Yang?
- Oh my gosh.
There it is guys.
Let me know on the comments what you guys think.
Is this insane or what!?
- Yeah, he is insane.
That's exactly what you need to think.
- So the crew over here has been waiting to see.
- [Crew] Oh my gosh!
- Look at them they are so cute!
This one is solid black!
- That thing is crazy.
(crosstalk)
Look at the albino one!
- Aww can I hold one?
- Oh my God, look at it!
- It's so small.
- Dude, the black one is insane.
And so is the albino one, it's just too much.
- So cute!
- Oh my.
(chirping) (laughing)
- Eric's in love.
- I said I wouldn't cry.
Dude, look at this thing, is insane.
It looks fake, it really does look fake.
- Oh my goodness.
- Wow, wow!
Hey guys, you have to see this thing.
- Oh my gosh!
(crosstalk)
When they said black I didn't think,
like just midnight, pitch-black!
The whole thing.
(crosstalk)
Even the albino one, does not look even real.
- [Crew Member] Oh my God, that's so crazy.
(laughing) (crosstalk)
- Oh it's so cute!
- Actually, Gatorland is sending a couple
normal alligators, as well.
So Savannah is gonna get a chance to see these guys
and her normal gators.
So the four of them are gonna be in the tank together.
There it is, my heart is beating so fast,
it's not even funny.
I am just tripping out.
I'm not gonna get any work done today,
'cause all I'm gonna do is look at these guys.
Alright, so we are going to go ahead
and release these into the cage.
I think we are gonna put them on the hot spot
so they can warm up a little bit, like this.
(chirping)
(laughing) (chirping)
So we'll let these guys kinda warm up.
They got their hot spot up here,
they can kick down into the water if they so choose.
Whatever they wanna do.
We'll be keeping a hawk eye on the--
Back with Savannah, and doing her monitor magic
with my guy, Chicken Strip.
- I'm in love with him.
- [Brian] Isn't he crazy? - He is so great.
- Oh my God, he loves you too.
I swear to God, you do have a way with monitors.
They seem to be so chill with you.
- I love them so much, I think they feel that.
- [Brian] I think so, I think so.
- I think they do.
And he can hide in my hair.
- I've got Sebastian here, doing a good tour,
and his mom said she would never touch a snake.
You guys have actually owned a snake
for like 10 years and you've never touched it.
- Yeah.
- [Brian] And you said you are gonna
touch one now for us.
- Uh huh.
- [Brian] Oh my gosh, how is that?
- Feels really good.
(laughing)
- [Brian] Savannah you come-- - We did it!
We did it, we got your mom!
- I like it, it feels really good.
- Look how pretty this snake's face is.
- [Brian] Oh I know, it's so gorgeous.
What do you think Sebastian?
- Awesome place, love it!
- [Brian] It's so good to have you guys here.
Just got back from the airport,
and picked up my other
little baby alligators from Gatorland.
I'm excited to see these guys,
hopefully they'll be the right size,
so I can go them with the albino and the black one.
This is so cool, I'm so excited.
I remember when RJ was a little baby,
how cute he was, so let's see
what these guys look like.
They definitely are little!
Oh my God!
Look at how cute these little monkeys are.
Oh my God, that's amazing.
And it's the perfect size,
just the same size as the other ones.
I was a little worried about them being too big,
because of course we don't want these ones
to nip at the albino or the black one.
And here is the other one.
Oh my gosh, look at how beautiful these little dudes are!
Oh my gosh, I'm gonna go ahead and put them in here.
So now that you guys so us and our raw emotions
opening these animals, I wanna show Savannah.
And now Savannah already works with tons
of really cool alligators, crocodilians
and stuff like that.
So I don't think she is gonna be blown away.
They have albino alligators there.
They have leucistic alligators there.
They don't have melanistic ones,
so I think this might me the first one.
I'm not a 100% sure.
A little nervous, hoping she is excited,
and then after that, we open The Reptarium,
Savannah, myself and the crew are gonna have
a great time with all the people.
And then, after that, we do the special event,
which is kind of a Q&A hangout at The Reptarium.
Gonna be a great night.
Let's go out and see how Savannah likes my new little guys.
So the deal is, we've been keeping the alligators back here,
but tonight they actually go on display.
Savannah gets a chance to see them.
So what do yo say?
We go introduce my new alligators to her.
Okay Savannah!
- Okay!
Oh my gosh!
Look at that!
A baby albino, and what's this one?
- That's the melanistic.
- Oh wow!
- Aren't they crazy?
- Oh my gosh, they look amazing!
I've never seen a baby albino.
- I know, 'cause you go to work with the big ones.
That's the cutest little thing in the world.
- Oh my God!
- This black one, is that thing ridiculous or what?
- I've never seen anything like that in my life before.
- I mean that is like jet-black eyes--
- Wow!
- I love the contrast so.
- That's crazy looking.
- I was hoping you'd like them.
- Oh my gosh, I love them!
How exciting!
- I know it is.
I'm nervous though, because they're so small.
- I know they're tiny.
- Oh my gosh.
- Wow, that is so beautiful!
- Now you can tell me your thoughts.
Should I put them in here with the normals,
or should I put them in a smaller tank on their own
and keep more normals in here?
- I don't know.
(laughing)
- Okay, get back on a plane, you're outta here!
- Well, I mean, it depends on what you wanna do.
I kinda think they like being together but,
I would hate for them to get hurt, that's the thing.
If they did get into a tussle for any reason,
not that I don't like these guys,
'cause I do love them
and I think they came from Gatorland,
but I might keep these by themselves.
- I think, at least for this weekend,
I think I am gonna keep them separate,
and people can see them that way,
and then we'll probably, if that goes well,
we'll probably put a bunch more
normal alligators in here.
- Yeah, yeah. - I think, I think.
- 'Cause you don't want them to get hurt,
and we don't keep our special alligators
with the general population.
You can't put everybody, can't go into gen-pop.
Some people gotta go into isolation.
(laughing)
- Cause, what happens is that alligators do,
and you saw what happened to RJ
when he was a little baby this size,
another alligator actually ripped his arm off during food.
We don't want that to happen to these guys.
- No!
- I think that's what we are gonna do tonight.
So alright, let's do that, let's get ready,
and open up The Reptarium here in a few minutes.
It's gonna be absolutely epic!
- I'm so happy!
- I'm having fun at The Reptarium tonight,
are you guys having a good time?
- Yeah. - Alright, cool, cool.
Let us know if you need anything at all.
(crosstalk)
Hi guys, how are you?
- Hi!
- Hi, hi guys, how are you?
Oh my gosh this has been a fun night so far.
We are just getting started and it's already a blast.
And guess who we have over here?
We have a new cage over here,
the new cage is called Savannah.
(laughs)
- What kind of tortoise is this?
- [Brian] It's a leopard tortoise.
- Leopard tortoise that's what it is.
- [Little Girl] Is he coming now?
(crosstalk)
- This is amazing!
- [Brian] Are you having a good time?
- Yeah, so I brought Elvis over here,
because he is going on a climbing expedition.
He's been climbing up and down, up and down.
But this sulcata does not want us in here.
- [Brian] Yeah, that's Speedy, that's Speedy.
- Yeah, well, Speedy has bitten me like 10 times.
- [Brian] Oh no, Speedy!
- And rushed me and tried to knock me down.
- [Brian] Are you guys enjoying the Savannah cage?
- Yeah!
- Well have fun.
Enjoy yourselves, alright alright.
(laughing)
It's been a while since I've logged in Bella's cage.
But pretty much almost most weekends
that we are hanging out, we come in
and if Bella doesn't come down
for pets, we come in,
and I think it's kind of a cool little thing.
A lot of people are interested in doing it,
so it's pretty awesome.
Bala you are such a good girl.
We got about a half hour left of The Reptarium,
So what do you think-- - Oh my gosh!
This was so much fun.
Everybody here, all the kids,
all the grownups, everybody had the best time.
And I got to meet so many new cool people,
and everybody is excited about snakes.
Like that little girl over there!
Hi!
And she knows that snake by name,
and it's amazing, I love it!
We have to make one of this at Gatorland.
- Yeah.
- You should sponsor it.
- I think we need a Reptarium at Gatorland.
Totally, totally need that, that's awesome.
- Yes, absolutely!
- So we got about a half hour to go.
Then we have our event afterwards,
which is gonna be amazing.
It's been an absolutely, breathtakingly,
amazing night here.
Remember when I had Argamis,
And he actually chased the mice.
I'm actually gonna have Savannah do it.
This time there is a bunch of people.
There is people over here,
there is people over there.
We got the aisle-way clear.
I told Savannah we have four mice.
- And that's it.
- So you have to get him down the aisle,
with two mice.
And then back down the aisle, and back in his cage.
With two mice.
- That's it.
- And that's all you got.
- No hands on.
- Okay.
- And if for some reason he doesn't get back
in the cage, everyone is just running out
of the building.
(laughing)
Okay, this oughta be fun.
- I think I'm ready.
- [Brian] Savannah, are you ready?
- I think I am.
- [Brian] You got all these people's lives in your hands.
- And all those back there.
- [Brian] Okay, here I go.
- Don't drop that little boy in there
with that snapping turtle.
(laughing)
- [Brian] Savannah I'd be up close and then.
- [Savannah] Let's go.
Come on.
Oh my goodness.
Okay, there you go.
(visitors cheering)
He did good.
Oh my God!
Okay, that's two out,
But I need to get him all the way down.
(crosstalk)
Come on.
He is a good runner.
- [Brian] Okay, back this way no, back this way.
- [Savannah] I only have one left.
- [Brian] Okay, you gotta get back (mumbles).
- [Savannah] One more.
One more.
Come on.
Oh no!
- [Brian] Now you gotta get him back in the cage.
All the way back into the cage.
Savannah you (mumbles).
(laughing)
- [Savannah] Come on buddy.
- [Brian] Thank god I had that mouse!
All the way back in,
all the way back in, all the way back in!
- [Savannah] Oh, oh, oh.
Yeah, wohoo!
We did it!
(laughing)
- [Brian] Savannah--
- It took an extra mouse but we did it!
- What did you guys think, alright?
(cheering)
- [Savannah] That was awesome!
- So we are shut down at The Reptarium.
This is all the people,
Savannah is coordinating a group picture for the event,
'bout to have a really good time tonight.
It's a great turnout, it's gonna be amazing.
I hope that everyone loved it, we are bringing RJ out.
Stuff like that.
It's gonna be awesome.
- So I volunteered and I worked
at a reptile-zoo in California.
And I always wanted to work at Gatorland,
'cause I think Gatorland is the best place
in the world.
Crocodiles and alligators are completely underrated.
People think that they are just dumb reptiles,
but they are really smart.
- And of course, we are not gonna do an alligator event
without taking out my guy, RJ.
You are getting the chance to hold him a little bit.
Everyone had a chance to kinda get a little bit
to know him and stuff.
He is an amazing animal, and a great ambassador
for alligators for sure.
So definitely had a fun night tonight.
Cool, we are wrapping up the day.
Savannah that was--
- Oh my gosh, best day ever!
I had so much fun.
I forgot how much I love snakes,
and I got to play with so many snakes today.
- It was absolutely epic but I gotta tell you,
please do my a favor, go show Savannah's channel some love.
Gatorland blog, absolutely amazing.
I'm a huge fan of what she does.
Everything about it, you will love it.
Go subscribe, tell her Brian sent you.
As for now, I am gonna go ahead
and end the vlog, and just wish you guys
an absolutely amazing day, evening,
whenever you happen to be watching.
Can you do me a couple favors before we get out of here?
Can you smash that like button?
Turn that posts notification on,
and make a comment down below.
Let me know something awesome about Savannah
or yourself, whichever you so choose.
Be kind to someone today and I promise,
I will see you guys tomorrow.
