- This of course is my slot, Drogo.
Drogo, you wanted a little apple, baby boy?
One of the things you may not know about slots,
is that they actually only use the bathroom
about once a week.
And it's really cute the way they do it.
Drogo will literally crawl down to the base of his tree,
down here, he does a little wiggle like this,
and he actually uses the bathroom.
The downside is, is they also pee a lot at that time.
And it sometimes gets on their fur just a little bit.
And after a while he gets a little stinky,
so today we are giving Drogo a bath.
And if you ever wanted to know what a sloth poop looks like,
that's it.
- Don't hit the light, don't have the light.
You got it, you got it.
We're gonna give Drogo a bath, it's been a while.
We should really probably get smaller bins,
but that's okay.
(loud bang)
Sorry, Bruce.
- Come on, you got it.
- He's got the cord around his neck and everything.
- You're gonna hang yourself.
(men laugh)
- It's stuck on this.
Okay.
- Dude, you got it. - All right.
My door dash is here.
- Door dash.
- Oh, yep, that's mine.
Could you just put it in the bin there?
- Yup.
- Quick break.
(upbeat music plays)
Hey, Lori?
Lori, hey I was wondering if you wanna get Drogo out?
Why not?
He's doing great, he's in a great mood.
He just gave me a kiss on the nose.
Can you run and get like two slices of apples.
- Sure. - Faster.
I'll just pull him towards you, disconnect.
Make sure you keep this hand, right here.
There you go.
- Yay! - Boom, bam.
- Try not to spray me this time.
- I got it.
- I don't have a change of clothes.
Hey, buddy.
- It's been a long time.
Miss the water? Feels so good?
- Over here, bud, over here.
- Get your head a little bit.
Mike came through with the treats.
- No. - Nope.
- I'm going no.
- Oh, my god.
Look at that dirty slaw.
You dirty boy, you.
- Good boy!
- I mean, he's doing great though.
And we're pretty dry.
- Kinda.
- Hi, I love you.
Drogo, I'm just letting you know.
We might have to do a double dosage,
'cause he stinky.
So, we're actually putting some conditioner on Drogo.
We're gonna try to rub this in real good.
He's been pretty dry.
You know, that time of the year, I'm gonna put this on him.
Let it sit, make sure we get all of his parts.
Legs, arms, toes, both of them.
Oh, Drogo, your feet are so soft right now.
- You're going so good.
- He says, what if I go this way.
- That was, like, a hail Mary, backwards.
- You know, it's really not fair to be looking
at this beautiful salt water tank,
and not be able to put anything in it.
It's driving me crazy, every day I'm like,
can I put fish in yet? Can't put fish in yet?
The levels are actually looking really good.
I think about a week or two from now,
we can put what they call, a Canary fish, in there.
Which basically means you put something in there
that's really hardy, and hopefully it lives,
and then if it lives, you can start to add more.
- Do Armadillos like snow?
(upbeat music)
- [Man] That's a lot of snow.
- Let's go find out.
(upbeat music continues)
- It's stuck,
it's stuck.
Brillo, you're trapping there.
I got it.
Come on, Brillo, let's go.
- Yeah.
- Brillo, what do you think?
- Look it, buddy.
He's checking it out, he's like, what is this?
- Oh, he's eating it.
- It is cold. - Of course, he's eating it.
He's always eating everything.
- You like it, buddy boy?
Digging it, digging it, digging it, digging.
- I think he really likes it.
- Dig it, yeah!
He's making an Armadillo man.
- Dude look at him, his face is covered in snow.
- He likes it, dude.
- Oh, that's so cool bro.
Oh, bro.
All right, so we got some apples.
We're actually gonna try to stick it in the snow,
or at least a couple snowballs,
and see if he'll actually like them.
- What are you doing?
- Look at him, he's all happy.
Look, he's wagging his tail.
I'm just gonna-
- Oh yeah, he's walking in his hind legs.
- Sniff it, sniff it.
- Oh, my God, look at that little snow bunny.
- That's my finger.
- He's wagging his tail all around this thing, dude.
- I've never seen him do that before.
Oh, he smells it, he smells it.
Wait, wait.
Look, look, look.
Like, he keeps smelling it, and then he keeps coming back.
- That worked out great.
(men laugh)
- All right.
Looks like that worked out pretty great.
I'm gonna let him out here.
He running so fast.
- He's like, get me away from that.
Good job, buddy.
I think he enjoyed it for a couple minutes,
and then he was like, okay, it's cold.
- Yeah, he's from Texas.
So, he's not used-
- He's from South America. - Same thing.
- Sometimes things have to get worse before they get better.
- Kinda like, washing my dogs.
- Oh, yeah.
I mean, Drogo's really came a long way.
- The first bath, oh, my Gosh.
- Oh yeah, oh yeah.
- he's got-
- Yeah, I got it, Ryan, don't worry about it.
(man laughs)
- That was crazy.
He has his clean butt in dirty water.
All right, bro, let us rinse.
(woman laughs)
- Let's go get you. - You wanna film?
- You like the water?
You wanna go swimming in the summer?
- I just realized, we should've put this in the pool.
- Oh, yeah.
- Then the floor wouldn't be all wet.
- That was really a lot of water, that was impressive.
(people laugh)
- The floor is soaked.
I gotta go get the mop.
- You might wanna get a couple mops.
- Probably, ShopVac would be better.
- Jay, get him, Jay, get him.
Quick, dude.
- To be honest, I really don't know.
- Come on, Drogo.
- Put your feet up here. - There we go.
- Dave's like, let him be a man.
- That's what the gym's for.
- I'm not strong enough for this.
(woman laughs)
- Don't miss, don't miss.
That would be kinda pointless.
- Lori!
- Jay! - Are you okay?
- You don't even help, you just scream.
- Yeah, I know.
Get this, get this.
Oh.
(man laughs)
- All right, I swear to god.
I will punch the out of you.
Calm your ass down.
Keep it on him.
Shouldn't be like a lighter spray?
- Like, shower or something?
- Yeah, you're literally. - Not jet.
- Listen, I thought it was on the mist setting
and then it came out like jet.
- It's not on the mist.
- This is the mist setting.
- Lori, hold the sloth.
- I hope he bites you.
- Yeah, get him Drogo, get him, get him, get him.
- Lori, stop.
Stop, everything's getting wet.
Okay, I think we just need to get his back.
We can't let Brian see this.
He's gonna be so disappointed.
But we had fun doing it.
- Get him, Drogo, get him.
- He's so mad.
I'm trying to help you.
He's like, "I'm blind!"
- He's got a towel on his head, of course he's mad.
- He did that to himself, by accident.
- When was the last time you took a bath?
- Eight years ago.
- Gotta keep working with this little monkey right here.
Of course, Hiccup is a snowblind water monitor.
And when we got him, he was really chill.
But, as he's kind of settled in,
getting a little bit of size to him, he's just, kind of,
being at a point where it's a little bit cray.
So, I have to continue this training.
It looks, like, almost like, a chicken strip, right?
Where it's like, whoa, what's going on.
Truth is, it's super docile,
but it just likes to run, when you first take it out.
And so, we have to take it out a bunch, right.
It's all about socialization,
and getting them, kind of, used to things.
Absolutely stunningly, beautiful animal.
And you gotta remember,
that this is more closely related to a wild card, right?
So, every generation you breed an animal,
it becomes more domesticated, right?
So, a lot of the monitors that we're working with,
like Toothless, and Elvis, have been bred now,
for five generations in captivity.
This one's probably one,
maybe two generations, from the wild, right.
I don't know exactly how far it is, because, you know,
if I say something wrong, I'm gonna get attacked about it.
But the truth is, that it's certainly more closely related
to a wild animal than most of the animals
I'm working with, monitor wise.
Which means, it probably has a little bit more
feist to it, right.
So, we just have to get it out,
and do a lot of work with it.
And, you know, shed a little bit of blood
here and there, for doing it.
But you can see how he's already calming down.
And he's just such an absolutely gorgeous animal.
I just want him to, kind of, just get used to me, right.
I just want him to say, like,
"Hey, listen, there's no problem,
I'm not trying to hurt you.
I'm not gonna try to do it. We wanna be friends, right?"
So, a lot of touching and hanging out with him,
and stuff like that.
That's what breaks down that, kind of, fear, right?
Because, what's happening is, he's afraid of me,
and he's trying to run away from me.
So, I have to break his fear of me.
And, of course, I'm not afraid of him.
So, when we both get past our fear of each other,
that's when an animal becomes absolutely wonderful.
So, hiccup is a beautiful animal,
but has a little ways to go before he's as docile
as Toothless or Elvis, that's for sure.
(air blowing)
- Drying my sloth.
- He likes the banana.
- Lori, you gotta turn him around.
- Lori, you need help over there?
(all laugh)
- I need him a little bit this way, Lori.
- There you go.
- Lori.
Lori I need him a little over here.
- Good boy.
- Lori, Lori, just a little bit closer, to this side.
(woman laughs)
Drogo's like, what the hell, I keep spinning?
I can't stay in the same place.
(woman laughs)
No, no, no.
I remember that time.
- It's a good thing.
- You're a good boy.
- There you go.
- I'm tired just looking at y'all.
- Drogo!
(woman laughs)
- He's like, I will cover my face.
- Hi Drogy, are you having so much fun?
- So much water on him!
- Super soaker.
Let's get his belly like this.
- I don't have a bath tub.
- I got this, I'm a professional slot washer.
(blow drier drowns out talking)
- Glory!
(blow drier blows)
- I'm in love with the Drogo.
- Do grown men really take baths?
- Put some oil on this guy, so he is nice and moisturized.
- Can't we just dip his feet in the fish pond?
- Good boy, Drogo.
I wish someone moisturized and bathed me like this.
That right there, Jay, that's a shot.
Successful.
- I think he's good to go.
- So, I would definitely say this is probably
one of the more exciting ones, but he did good.
- Probably would've been better
if you could direct the flow of water properly.
- Yeah, yeah, I mean.
- I think next time I'm doing the water.
- No, you do your job so well.
- No, no, no. - So well.
- This is the easiest.
Look at that.
No bites.
- No fights,
- No bites, - No glory!
Go take a walk.
Yeah, I'm a little sweaty.
You wanna touch my back sweat?
- No, do you wanna touch mine?
- No.
Mike, me and Lori are gonna run out and get some food.
Will you clean the rest of this up?
- You soaked me through the hoodie.
I swear to God, do you wanna die?
(man laughs)
- No I'm not gonna do it.
I'm scared, no.
- There's no way.
- Just a lick, how about you put your finger?
- I saw the stuff that I dumped down the sink.
- [Woman] A hundred? Two hundred?
- No.
Do you see what's floating on that?
- I'd do it, dude I've had, like, Giardia five times.
- I got an idea.
I got five bucks for you to lick Matilda's pee
coming out from under the door.
- [Woman] Absolutely not.
(woman laughs)
Matilda!
- I don't know why we're gonna do this,
but we're actually gonna see if Drogo likes snow.
I don't think he's ever seen it before, obviously.
Hey buddy.
- Oh he's licking it!
It's like a snow cone for slots.
Do you wanna get some more?
- Oh, he is trying to eat it.
- Yeah, let him get a nibble.
- I don't want to give it, like, feed it to him.
He might get a brain freeze and freak out.
We're not that smart.
It's so crazy.
He's, like, actually trying to eat it.
It's, like, turning into an ice ball,
now it's been in my hand.
- Pretty interesting, we got a snowstorm, we had to use it.
- Obviously the sloth doesn't hate the ice.
- No. - Or snow.
- So, I think it was a 50, 50.
They didn't hate it, and they didn't love it.
They just kind of tolerated it.
Drogo seems to actually be enjoying it, pretty much.
He keeps on sucking.
- It is, look at his teeth though.
Like everybody always asks if they have teeth.
Yeah, Yeah, Slots have teeth.
- Hope you enjoyed Drogo getting a bath.
If you did, do me a favor,
could you smash that like button?
We also have a playlist right up here,
if you don't mind watching, that would mean a lot to me.
You can also hit the subscription button over here,
that would certainly help the channel out
a tremendous amount.
Have an absolutely wonderful day, Reptile army!
Remember, be kind to somebody,
and I promise I'm gonna see you in the next one.
