Hey!.great video. How'd you make that shelf for the cage?

I love Macklot's pythons! Such an underrated species. I got to hold one in Japan and he was so adorable and curious.

I have two royals. One is named Mesmer, believe it or not - named after Franz Mesmer. What a funny coincidence. Mesmer was my first snake simply because a year and a half ago, when I got him, someone else was giving him up after an impulse buy cuz she learned she couldnt care for him. I did a bunch of research (and I mean two weeks of watching your channel, reptifiles, fb pages, reddit...)! Kept him in a 50 gal tub until he grew out of it then got him a 120 gal. He's phenomenal. I'm a night owl too so thankfully I get to observe his behavior and while you're right, he's quite shy, he loves cryptic basking and he gets most active just after an enclosure clean or rearrangement. My other little guy I got a few days ago and is still acclimating to Mesmer's old tub. It's got a modified side with hinges and stuff so it's front-opening, with a big hole cut and chicken wire used so I could set up overhead lighting. I don't know much about little Odysseus' personality yet because I got him from a breeder who didn't work much one on one and couldn't give me any info. But he was surprisingly calm and confident during his transition from bag to terrarium, so seems like a good sign. I guess I'd probably agree they don't make good pets for most people, but I've never had much of a problem giving critters the space they need, restraining myself, and respecting them. If I wanted an extremely interactable pet, I'd get another dog, or a cat! I've yet to target train either but it's in the internary. Mesmer is three years old, he's not too old for it right? Maybe one day I'll get a bredli and have a blast with a "friendlier" snake. But that's when I have some more money and space.

Niiiice

This is just what I'm looking for. May I ask what product was used for the doors I'm having some trouble with that part. 🙏🏾

I hope that Lucy is able to receive the care that she needs! She deserves to feel comfortable and happy ❤

My retic is a baby

good training for snakes !!!

May she get the care she needs ❤ Partially, commenting to help boost the video. Made a small donation (all I can spare sadly) and encourage anyone reading this to do the same. Let’s help this horse live a good life!

I’m betting on TC telekinesis 😂

That poor brave horse 🥹

I almost never comment on RUclips but you really deserve more recognition because of your impact on how people think about snakes. Its really great and eye opening. Thank you and I hope that soon we will see 100 000 subscribers:)

Thanks , how did you mount the perches please ?

Do the snakes bite you when you let them out for locking them up? Do they get angry? or do you have snakes that don't bite or what is their character, if I get a snake.

Love your videos! I've been watching you for a while now since Green Room Pythons mentioned you. Keep up the great content. You're really helping me out. I recently just purchased a purple male from Garrett at Reach Out Reptiles, and watched your videos multiple times before purchasing. Your videos helped me out soo much more than you know. Thank you!

Love this! I am the same way with my sd retics. 99% of the time if I open their enclosure they come right on out but if they don’t I just leave them be❤

That was awsome gonna watch again

I don’t have a lot of experience with horses, but even as a young child I was always put off by the way many of them were treated. It’s part of the reason I never got much into “horse culture”. I always felt that there had to be a better way. This is the way…❤

I would love to see an update now on your Angolan python with any care tips and observations you’ve had!

Just watched this again 😊

Do you have a horse playlist or horse resources you recommend? I'm getting a horse soon and would love to use kinder methods ❤ thanks!

So beautiful to watch. I love this

How do you make snakes don't bite you?

Ahhhh I like your cat so cute! ♥♥♥

Such a lucky snek! I have a jagpondro, jag carpet python / GTP hybrid that's very similar in appearance and has similar neuro issues regarding muscle tone and control but she was mature when I took her in so hard to say if she had the same issues your jag did. Absolutely stunning snakes though and I'm glad they are thriving despite the issues. Love your work :-)

He's gorgeous

❤❤❤❤

Wow, that was quite a deep story! 😬 Definitely reminds us to be prepared for the unexpected, and that snakes are not as "pea-brained" as many make them out to be. So cool that the corn snake recognised the safety bin and went in. 🐍

Thank you lori for your content and sharing your expertise. I have previously used more intrusive methods to handle my snake but don't have an onscreen relationship with him similarly to you and bob from green room pythons and it upsets me. I'm going to try to use your animal plan to fix this. I have a few questions regarding this video and part 1 that if you had time to answer would be greatly appreciated. 1) How does this fit in with enclosure husbandry? I have a bioactive enclosure and have to refill water (obviously) and spot clean urids as well as fix plants. I currently do this whilst my snake is in it's hide and am very aware of his presence as he will be coiled defensively in one of his hides and is known to investigate slightly beyond. This means I'm never comfortable doing these tasks and unfortunately will refrain from doing these depending on his position. 2) How does this fit in with feeding? Do you do the proximity method a few days after feeding? I know my snake will move to the cold hide after a few days so i assume that would be a good indicator that he is now able to be interacted with. 3) (Not really a question) My snake use to associate the sound of it's old encosure sliding open with feeding, now he's in a exoterra hinged enclosure and I'm showing a target before presenting the rat to start target training. I hope these thing help break the association that has been built 4) Does the snake have to be active to start training? my ball python is very active and exsplority and is very enriched at night climbing or crushing some plants and laying across the support on the wall (Desinged for him to rest on) as he has always wanted to have a vertical aspect to exploring, He'll pause in my presence but will then continue unphased by me. But in the day is normally balled in a hide. He responds by protruding his head and tongue flicking if i go buy his enclosure but isn't actively out. I hope this makes sense, thanks again for your help.

im glad you showed the vid of the baby snake retreating from touch and covered that letting them flee is okay. Ive been doing this with my own very flighty corn snake and she is interested in coming to me and coming outside but freaks out if shes touched (For course correction) so I let her flee back to her enclosure and hide and I leave her be and leave the enclosure alone and im glad that ive been just doing the right thing.

I now have a new channel to binge, so thank you for all of this incredible information!!

Hi Lori, thanks for sharing this on RUclips. I was interested to hear that savuensis are fossorial by daytime (makes sense with their small fine scalation?). One keeper relayed that they were advised that one way to stimulate breeding was to switch adults onto wood shavings ( from coconut husk) to make conditions very dry and simulate the dry season? Unsure that I will adopt that approach in future, but I certainly will increase substrate depth. I have noted one of three juveniles burrowing in the substrate but will increase the depth from 1 inch to 3+.

That is so wonderful. What a brave boy

Thank you i recently got 3 burmese pythons and i have been practicing your methods and they have worked really well

Reptile Love ,,,,,,,,,, I so adore '

Can she roll over and shake yet?

I miss watching these videos with the background tune ☺️ My wife got a bit impatient that it kept cutting out 😂 She doesn’t watch snake videos but she tolerates my passion and she knows your end of video mantra from all the videos she’s overheard 😆

I thought we arent supposed to use anything adhesive inside an enclosure because it could get stuck to the reptile?

Thanks for documenting and sharing this for reference.

Same w/horses, cats, and dogs?

Great video!

hi ...i am sharing some tips...please check your mail ..thanks

it's very helpful video ...thanks

I also only handle mine went they approach me. There's always one or two that will come up to me when I enter their room and put their head on my shoulder for their "hug and kiss". Something that they copied from their mother. They have their own bedroom with a queen size heated waterbed(spoiled rotten. lol). There's nice enclosures in their room but the doors are left open so they come and go as they please. No I don't recommend anyone copying me. Oh yeah did I mention they are five 20 foot Pythons? The best home security system. They don't bark.

IT DIDDNT TAKE IT LONG TO OVER COME THE CLEAR CUP

I've started trying to get my snake to come to me and I think it freaks him out. He normally just starts slithering out if I open something, even onto me but if l rest my hand under the opening, he stops and stares. Like its weird of me or something.

Do you have a video of how to snake proof your house?

Great chat.
