Thank you all so much for your unwavering support during these past five months. It’s been a challenging journey, but your kindness, patience, and encouragement have meant the world to me. Sharing this story wasn’t easy, but I hope it can help others avoid the pain and hardships I’ve faced. I’m so grateful to be back and to have such an incredible community here. Let’s keep learning, growing, and supporting one another as reptile keepers and as friends. Thank you for being here! -Dayyan
Hey Dayyan ! Glad i just saw this notification about your video…pulled it up right away…watching it now ! Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us ! This is blowing me away ! & to be fair…I didn’t even know anything about this 😳 I can’t even imagine everything you went through & might still be dealing with…physically & mentally. My heart goes out to you & to your animals….especially the ones you lost 😢😢 what a horrible thing to go through….im so sorry 😞 I’m sending positive vibes & prayers your way ! 😊🤙🏻🙏🏻
Hey I’m so sorry to hear about what you’re going through. And truly sorry that you have to deal with this situation and even had to think about making the decision about what you think u should do to help ur family just had to say something b4 I saw the whole video and I’m happy for ur results on the other animals. ❤❤
Hi Dion. I'm praying for you and your animals. I'm praying in the mighty name of Jesus Christ that all of your animals are cured by the precious blood of Jesus, and that they are to be free from Cryptosporidium serpentis and varanii, in the mighty name of Jesus. I declare and decree that the Holy Spirit is to cover and protect all your animals and yourself in Jesus name and that hopefully no other animals are to be put down and not die at all in Jesus name. I command the spirit of death to flee your animals and your household in Jesus name. I command for satan to loose his grip on you, your pets and your household in the name of Jesus. Father I thank you for Dion and his animals and Lord please show him through this prayer coming true that this miracle through Jesus, will help him follow you Jesus and accept you by faith as his Lord and Savior. Lord Please save Dion and his animals in Jesus name I pray Amen! I love you brother Dion and Jesus loves you too! Don't give up, God never fails.
Thanks so much, ma man! I’m glad I could share what I learned and hopefully spare our community from having the same misfortune befall their beloved pets! I am grateful for your support 🙏🏼!
Every reptile keeper’s worst nightmare. I’m SO sorry for your loss. I think the way you handled this is so brave, and I’m glad the snakes got a second chance.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful message, friend 🙏🏼! I appreciate the sentimental words and am glad you supported my decision to keep my snakes 🙏🏼.
Welcome back buddy! As one of your close friends who had to watch you (and support you when needed) throughout this whole process, I can say you did the right thing. Can’t wait for more videos soon!
Thanks so much ma man. Not really sure where to even start. So grateful for your support through this. In the early days of diagnoses, later, when I had to make hard decisions, you were always there whether it was with sound advice or even as a listening ear. To top that off, the world has you and @tarantulakat to thank for this video ever coming out. Were it not for you too, I’m not sure I would have had the push to do it. Thank you brother 🙏🏼
I haven't even watched the video yet, but seeing the title made my heart drop instantly. This is my biggest fear working in the reptile industry. All my heart and hope and prayers and love going out to you right now, friend
Sorry that happened! Glad you're talking about it though, few people really understand the importance of quarantine for new reptiles. This is exactly why we never ever let any unquarantined rescues into the snake room!
I’m proud of you. You made the most responsible choice for your pets by testing everybody regardless off the financial burden, and making sure it does not spread throughout the hobby. I’m glad you had somewhere to send the infected animals where they pose no risk. You did well and have my respect!! And, thank you for airing the dirty secret of the hobby - disease. Everyone loves the happy hunky dory, but nobody talks about the tough reality of disease and why it’s so important to be attentive.
I'm so happy to see that you're back! I know this has been an extremely challenging year. Your pets are very lucky to have you. I fear the consequences would be much worse if this had happened to someone less vigilant and compassionate.
I tried to express my thanks in this video but truly, dear friend- I am so grateful! Thank you for the kind words but in the same light, the situation would have been much worse had I not had your guidance, animal treatment, knowledge, outreach and honest help. Thank you Dr. Alec 👨🏼⚕️🙏🏼
Dr. Alec you deserve some gratitude here, too. So many vets wouldn't have been as thorough as you were and it's always wonderful to see you in these videos as you clearly care so much about your patients. Hope you're doing well
I'm glad you're back, but so incredibly sorry you've had to go through this. This is so scary and sad 😢 But also thank you for making this video - it's something that is very important and so often forgotten about/never known about. You handled all of this so well 💜
I am so sorry for your loss. I think your friend offering to take the remaining snakes and giving them a second chance/potential end of life care was one of the kindest and most selfless acts i've seen anyone do in this hobby, even if there was risk i think it was worth it.
I'm someone who is very vocal when an animal needs to be put down for its and other animals' wellbeing- this wasn't one of those cases. Your snakes get to live out their lives for as long as they're comfortable with someone trusted and responsible. I don't think many others in this community would go to the lengths that you have for your collection, nor have the empathy for their audience in deciding not to post until everyone was cleared. I'm very sorry for your losses and that this happened in the first place, but incredibly relieved that your lizard species were unaffected. Thank you for the update, and can't wait for your next video!
An incurable disease that’s nearly impossible to kill and highly contagious puts countless other animals at risk. Who do you suggest to take in such high risk animals? You realize these crypto positive animals now contaminate everything they touch and the only things to kill crypto is 6% (or higher) hydrogen peroxide and ammonia. Are you volunteering to take them all in? I hope you don’t have any other reptiles since it spreads like wildfire.
Im so sorry for your loss and that you went through this. But for what it’s worth, you handled it like a pro and you’re incredible for being so open about this and using your experience and platform to educate about crypto the importance of strict quarantine. 👏🏼
I am very sorry this happened to you. Thank you for making this video!! I am so glad to see people talking about cryptosporidium, it's a huge issue in the reptile community that everyone seems to try to ignore (such as the advice you got from your friends). It's much more prevalent than people think. It's sneaky because as you said not all animals are symptomatic so simply quarantining is not good enough, you need to test and hardly anyone does unfortunately. In the US there is Research Associates Laboratory where you can send your fecal samples and it's only $25 per test (and will ID which type of crypto).
Thank you so much! Wow, thats a fantastic deal! No excuses then for American keepers :P! Everyone should be testing! Thanks for sharing that info for others to see and benefit from!
Sorry to hear that. I actually lost my entire collection that was started in 2014 this summer. I was out of town for work and my fuse went out for my minisplit in my reptile building. But after a couple months, a buddy helped me out and resparked my love for reptiles. And I'm glad to have had friends like that. Because I've already came back strong and yeah it hurts looking back. But I'm excited for the future. I hope everything works out for you
Dayyan, if anyone in this community can say they did everything they possibly could, it's you. ♥ You went down every single avenue available to you AND you were lucky enough to have a friend ready and willing to help you save three lives, important no matter how long those lives end up being. I hope the pain of all of this eases soon, and that this coming year is the fantastic reptile year you deserve.
I’ve never been happier to be a Patron as I am right now. I’m gutted for you and so, so very sorry. I’m very happy that none of the lizards have it and I want to thank you for putting this video out. It’s an important one that will inevitably help someone recognize it in one of their animals. Hang in there, we’re with you!❤️
Thank you so much for your kind message of support! I can't express enough how much your generosity has meant over all this time! It made such a difference :).
I’m sorry for the loss of your beautiful snake, but in the end this is a story of true love and dedication for your beautiful reptiles, and to the hobby. You could have chosen to stay quiet about this and no one would have been the wiser, but by coming out you are teaching hobbyists what to look for, and how to handle a situation should it arise. I don’t have any reptiles, but I have spiders and scorpions that are my little arachnid family members. I’m keeping you and your reptiles in my prayers for a continued bright outlook for your future. Looking forward to more videos when you are ready.
I knew something was going on but I had no idea it was THIS. I am grateful you shared this with us and such a learning experience. I dont think i could handle it if it took any more of your animals. I feel so badly for your loss. I am going to tighten up on how I feed and clean my reptiles too. Glad you are back buddy it’s not the same without you
Wickens Wicked Reptiles mentioned you had a video. I didnt realise I'd been unsubscribed to your channel. I am absolutely devastated for everything you had to go through. There is nothing worse than watching your animals in pain. Tha k you for educating us on Crypto. I've heard of it in passing but this opened my eyes to just how deadly it is. Im glad you've had the strength to overcome this. I managed a farm and there are diseases like Coccidiosis where its almost impossible to diagnose until its too late and I had to sit, sometimes for days, watching your beloved creature waste away and die (i lived on a remote island and it was hard to get a vet in to Euthanize). Euthanasia should be a last resort though. Im glad you had a willing and knowledgeable friend who was willing to commit to the specific requirements for your snakes. Its a huge commitment to limit oneself when there is so much passion.
Holy moly...Dayyan! I'm so sorry you went through this heart-wrenching mess. I'm also very, very impressed with your unwavering integrity and willingness to take the high road. Testing every animal you keep and then waiting on results had to be like a hideous and ongoing nightmare that went on and on... I'm so relieved it's seemingly over and am confident that your procedures & practices going forward will make for a healthy new model in reptile keeping. Between you and Alec, you could change entirely how specialty pets kept, bred and sold, making positive results in the long-term hobby. And I congratulate you on the choices you've made going forward. What a joy it is to watch you grow and share your life. Thank you! PS, reading comments; its no surprise that you have such a following or that your real-time friends love & support you. You are the real deal and simply mahh-velous.
I know I'm just a stranger on the internet, but if it's any comfort, I think you made all the right calls with your animals to give them the best lives possible. Knowing when to put down a pet is hard, and shouldn't be taken lightly, but I think you gave your snakes the best option available (and one that a lot of people wouldn't have had the option). I'm also really glad to hear that you ignored the people in your life who said to not test the rest of your animals. I would not have been able to sleep if I was in your position and I didn't test, but I'm so glad to hear that no one else was infected. I hope you never see another positive result for the rest of your life 💜
Oh Dayyan, what a journey! I remember you sharing about this with me at Animal Con… my heart goes out to you, and I definitely teared up watching this. Thank you for sharing so that more people understand the severity of this, thank you for being so honest and for having such integrity in how you dealt with it, and thank you for being such a loving reptile dad. I can only imagine what going through this was like emotionally. I’m glad you took the time for yourself you needed and didn’t jump into posting just to do it. You’re a really good person and we all can learn from this. ❤
@ absolutely my honor. This is such an important topic to discuss and needs more airtime and attention. I still think that there should be more responsibility placed on breeders to have their animals tested before selling, but since there are no rules or regulations about that… ahem… it’s so important for us all to be educated and to do the work to quarantine and test ourselves. I for one will be looking into this more deeply, sharing it, and if/when I do get more animals, will be rigorous with precautions. Thank you.
Hello Dion. My heart goes out to you for having to deal with this situation. I have a large (Compared to my neighbors lol) collection of Tarantula's and 1 beautiful 7' BCI female in my home. I will keep this as short as I can but I need to express how I feel you stand out in this community, and you seem to do so without effort. I have always felt I am watching the "real" Dion when you share your content. I see you as a kind and empathetic man with a passion for knowledge. I feel for you and the animals affected by this situation, and sincerely hope you are carrying no guilt over this. Please keep sharing with this community, your content is a valued addition to the knowledge bank. Thx again
Now that I've seen the video, I really feel for you and I appreciate you so much for taking such extreme measures to protect your animals and other keepers. We talked about a year ago about sand geckos and how I hoped to purchase from you one day. I still intend to do that, even more now knowing you are such a dedicated and trustworthy individual. You were so approachable and kind, the easy attitude you spoke with me, I always have remembered, you were friendly instead of distant like many other large youtubers. I'm not an active watcher, but I'll pop through a few more of your videos today, for Kira. You deserve the best, you are a truly wonderful keeper who did everything you could and I'm glad to see you came out the other side of it with your love and passion for these animals intact. Be blessed by all the universe, Dayyan.
This is my worst fear as a reptile keeper. I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I am thankful for the positive results for the rest of the room, at the very least. And I look forward to seeing how you grow from here. I'm always 50/50 about putting them down as well. With the possibility that they may live a full life, I feel that it's worth giving them the chance. If you can do it without the risk to the rest of the room, then I think that's the best course of action. It's scary, though. You really do feel invincible, until something like this happens. Especially when you're responsible with your quarantine, and care, and cleanliness. This makes me want to get some of my animals tested, just to be sure. Thank you for sharing! It's really important to share the reality of owning specialty pets. Sadly, painful lessons are how you often gain experience, but with always the hope that things will work out better, with that new knowledge for the future.
I am so sorry for your loss of Ciara and your 3 remaining snakes. You are an inspiration to me and because of this video I have changed how we take care of our snakes and lizards. Thanks Dayyan! Wishing you the best for Christmas!
I am so sorry this happened to you. It seemed like nothing was going to happen to your reptiles because you take such good care of them and your enclosures are so beautiful and filled with enrichment for them. It just goes to show that if it can happen to you, it can happen to anybody.
Thank you for sharing your experience in dealing with this. I had heard of Cryptosporidium before, but I did not know many details about it. I appreciate your openness to share this, even though I imagine it was quite painful to do so.
Reptilliatus, I joined your community through your sand gecko project (I am receiving some of my own species in March), but I stuck around because of how you seem to LOVE your critter with so much excitement and energy, like so many of the community’s beloved reptile channels. I am so sorry that this was in such circumstances. We will not be upset or mad at you for taking your time in your reality, we will wait patiently.
Incredible video homie. You handled this so well. Sorry you had to go through all this but appreciate you making a video and educating us all on this! Super glad you are back, looking forward to the next video already 👏🏻👏🏻🔥
Thank you so much, brother! I appreciate your support, dearly. Thanks for the chats on this topic all those months ago, it helped a lot. Likewise- can’t wait to see all the content you have in store for us 🙏🏼!
So glad the rest of the critters are in good health, but so sorry for the lose of your one snake and having to re-home your other snakes but glad you know they have good care and are living well. It can be heart braking if one is infected it threatens the rest of your herd per say. Tfs and glad you’re back. ❤😊
Thank you so much for sharing. My heart goes out to you. What a tragic and stressful 8 months. I have always quarantined new animals but had mites spread through my collection once from a hide box I bought at an expo. I’d cleaned the hide box but not sterilized it against mites. Lesson learned. I hope this is the last time you see active crypto in your collection. Great to have you back again. I missed your videos.
What a nightmare... This video and your inspiring determination to ensure your reptiles the best life possible surely goes to show just how much of a gold standard your husbandry practices are Dayyan! Thank you for what you do for the reptile community and for the awareness you bring to others in the pursuit of your dreams!
Thank you for being a responsible keeper and breeder by testing your whole collection. You are a credit to the hobby and setting a good example for others. I'm sorry this happened to you; no one deserves disease in the reptile room, but you least of all. I'm glad you are using your experience though to raise awareness and spread education about prevention. Glad to see you back. ❤
I was wondering why you weren’t posting on RUclips. Now I know. I’m so sorry. Sometimes we do everything right and bad shit still happens….you know, you’re not the only keeper on social platforms that have had crypto. Emma from Emzotic lost a lot of geckos from it. A friend of mine is a breeder with hundreds of snakes and he had a big scare of crypto. Luckily, it wasn’t but boy was he freaking out. And that’s his livelihood too. And you’re right, we do get to feeling too safe, and let our guards down. That was really good advice regarding new animals. It sure is scary isn’t it!? Im so sorry you had to lose two to death and three more to protect the rest of your collection. Take care.
So sorry you went through all of that, how devastating :( Kudos for the transparency - imagine how many new keepers (or seasoned!) can learn about this and be proactive. It /still/ doesn't feel like it's discussed enough in the hobby, along with all the other biosafety risks (nido, arena, etc).
Absolute nightmare scenario, I'm so sorry you had to go through this! You handled it as well as one could! I'm glad you were able to find a trusted person to help your positive animals live out their lives and give you peace of mind too. Thank you for sharing your journey!
I’m so sorry about Kyra, and I’m so sorry you had to rehome the rhinos and the garter :(. You actually helped me with my MBK Ymir so much when I first got him. You’re amazing man and you’ve handled this immensely better than I ever would’ve, I strive to be like you man you’re the best
Thank you for sharing this hard story. It's so important for us happy amatures and newbiees to learn about what can go wrong and how to prevent it as much as possible. I'm so happy this turned out as well as it possibly could with your infected snakes in a safe quarantine situation and all your other reptiles checked and well.
Man sorry to hear how much of a rough run you've had these last few months 🙁 This video was really eye opening. I appreciate you sharing the entire story. Nice to see you jump straight on to the prevention train as well with a fully updated system! That's true dedication and responsibility.
I am so very sorry for the loss of beautiful Kira. I cannot imagine the stress and heartbreak you have been feeling. I am very glad your amazing friend is taking care of your three snakes. Grateful there weren’t more losses, and I hope it remains that way. Hang in there and hoping for health in your beloved reptile room. I am so glad you chose to share this, as it is so important to know about. Thank you for the wonderful videos and your amazing channel. Best wishes moving forward. 💚
You are such an amazing example of a good animal husbandry and have wonderful morals. Thank you for sharing your story and I wish you all the best luck moving forward!
Brother, you’re an amazing pet owner, and voice of the hobby. You’ve done all the right things and in this struggle you’ve been facing. Keep up the amazing work and I can’t wait to see what content you come out with in the future
Im so so so sorry for this tragedy. I cant imagine how stressful this was for you. You did the best you could with the situation. Its so hard. Wishing you well. ❤
Im so glad you’re back! I’m sorry for what you went through with crypto, I can’t even imagine how difficult you must have been. You’re such an inspiration to myself and the reptile community as a whole!
I'm so sorry you and your animals went through this. I hope you're feeling better about things now? It's good to have you back in the space you've been missed.
Man, sorry all that happened. SUPER glad u shared this. Everyone can learn from this, myself included. Definitely going to tighten up my sanitation process. Priceless information.
I’m so sorry this happened. Huge respect for being so open and bringing education forward. What a relief the rest of the collection have tested negative.
Thanks for sharing this update, Dayyan! So sorry for the challenges you've been facing with crypto - how awful. Your commitment to the well-being of your animals is inspiring!
Dayyan, thank you for sharing and setting the example for what SHOULD be done. Im sorry you went through this. God bless your friend for taking on the duty and care of the snakes. What a loving act of kindness.
1,000% understand u taking a break. Im so sorry this happened. That's heartbreaking but thank you for sharing. I had never heard of crypto before this. It's totally obvious how much you care about ur animals. Wishing u nothing but the very best. I was wondering wat was going on w/ not seeing any videos from u for awhile. Can't wait to c u move onward and upward from here. Positive vibes and good thoughts headed ur way from me..
I'm glad to see you're back on RUclips Dayyan. I found your channel this year and you inspired me to get back into the hobby. I want to thank you for that man. I am so sorry about Kiera she was such a beauty.
Thank you for sharing your experience, not everyone would be so diligent. When I saw the topic, I was afraid that things could have been far worse. Glad to hear that your snakes will get to live out their lives.
Thank you friend! It has been a rough few months but I am grateful to have made it out of the woods a few months back and am looking forward to putting this all behind me.
I want to take a quick second to tell you that I'm terribly sorry that you had to go through that. Secondly I'm glad we get to see you and your animals again
my heart is heavy for everything you have been going through. I send my love and praise to you and your animals. thank you for updating all of us and we are all happy you are back.
This is unfortunate. My old dog got cryptosporidium, and as you mentioned it is not nearly as bad for mammals. I never knew cryptosporidium was this bad for reptiles, so sorry for your loss man. Hopefully you, along with the reptile room, will recover
Even just reading the title of the video, I am so so sorry this happened 😢 Thank you so much for making this video. This is hugely beneficial for anyone keeping reptiles.
Thank you for being such a compassionate and responsible keeper and for always putting your animals first. I'm so grateful that you shared all this information with us and I'm sure it will help other keepers take better care of their animals. You are wonderful and I'm glad to have you back making videos! ♥️
I am so so sorry this happened to you! No reptile keeper wants this to be a possibility. With all the emotions and sadness aside, thank you for sharing this with us. You put in the work to get labs and learn the biology and now we all know about this, and can spread awareness and protection. I’m sorry again 😔
I’m so sorry you had to go through this. I think you handled this the best way you possibly could. Thank you for sharing your experience with everyone so we can learn from it.
Thank you for sharing. This devastating but it’s good that you did the responsible thing in dealing with this. May everything get better and better from here on out 🙏🙏🙏
I am so sorry to hear this and sorry for your loss. That said, your moral compass is amazing and I think you should be really proud of all your decisions.
Dayyan I am sooo sorry this happened to you and your scale babies. I wish I could give you a big hug! Thank you for sharing your experience with this. And I’m so glad to see you back! I unfortunately don’t comment a lot on your videos, but I watch every single one. Much love and respect to you! I think you made the right decision by letting Brayden (sp) take your other snakes. Hopefully, they’ll live the rest of their lives symptom free. 🥹❤️ God bless you for giving them a chance!
So sorry you went through this. So awe full, but you did everything you could. Also wanted to say I really like your style in this video. Like the hair with the facial hair, short beard with longer moustache, really suits you.
Thank you for sharing with us to help others to know about this and take proventitive messures. I know it wasn't easy. I'm sorry for what you went through these past months and your losses.
Even though this was a very difficult video, it is important to inform people in this hobby that these things can happen no matter how well you care for the animal. I truly am so sorry this happened.
So sorry you went thought this grueling and heartbreaking process. Sounds like you handled it as well as anyone could. You have a wonderful channel and extremely engaging content, and I'm glad to see you return. Thank you.

Thank you all so much for your unwavering support during these past five months. It’s been a challenging journey, but your kindness, patience, and encouragement have meant the world to me. Sharing this story wasn’t easy, but I hope it can help others avoid the pain and hardships I’ve faced. I’m so grateful to be back and to have such an incredible community here.

Good to have you back.
Appreciate you sharing this info. I had never heard of crypto before now
Hi Dion. I'm praying for you and your animals. I'm praying in the mighty name of Jesus Christ that all of your animals are cured by the precious blood of Jesus, and that they are to be free from Cryptosporidium serpentis and varanii, in the mighty name of Jesus. I declare and decree that the Holy Spirit is to cover and protect all your animals and yourself in Jesus name and that hopefully no other animals are to be put down and not die at all in Jesus name.

Lord Please save Dion and his animals in Jesus name I pray Amen! I love you brother Dion and Jesus loves you too! Don't give up, God never fails.
What an inspiring video! I’m sorry for your loss and excited you could share with us. You’re an amazing keeper!
Thanks so much, ma man! I’m glad I could share what I learned and hopefully spare our community from having the same misfortune befall their beloved pets! I am grateful for your support 🙏🏼!
Yes he is
Good words
You said it all! Proud of him, he is a great keeper and knowledge is everything! Thank you. Sincerely sorry for your loss!
So glad that you sent me.
Every reptile keeper’s worst nightmare. I’m SO sorry for your loss. I think the way you handled this is so brave, and I’m glad the snakes got a second chance.
Glad to see you here, Jessica. Hope you and your babies are doing well
Thank you so much for your thoughtful message, friend 🙏🏼! I appreciate the sentimental words and am glad you supported my decision to keep my snakes 🙏🏼.
@@azuradawn5683 yes we are! Very busy building a reptile room BUT I did just post to RUclips today in case you missed it :)
Welcome back buddy! As one of your close friends who had to watch you (and support you when needed) throughout this whole process, I can say you did the right thing. Can’t wait for more videos soon!
Thanks so much ma man. Not really sure where to even start. So grateful for your support through this.

To top that off, the world has you and @tarantulakat to thank for this video ever coming out. Were it not for you too, I’m not sure I would have had the push to do it. Thank you brother 🙏🏼
I haven't even watched the video yet, but seeing the title made my heart drop instantly. This is my biggest fear working in the reptile industry. All my heart and hope and prayers and love going out to you right now, friend
...I have NEVER heard of this disease and none of the Reptile or Animal youtubers ever covered it. Thank you for spreading the word!
I'm impressed with how responsibly you've delt with this situation. You have a lot of integrity and I have a ton of respect.
Thank you very much! I appreciate your kind words 🙏🏼
Sorry that happened! Glad you're talking about it though, few people really understand the importance of quarantine for new reptiles. This is exactly why we never ever let any unquarantined rescues into the snake room!
Thank you very much! It's great to hear you take quarantine so seriously!
I’m proud of you. You made the most responsible choice for your pets by testing everybody regardless off the financial burden, and making sure it does not spread throughout the hobby. I’m glad you had somewhere to send the infected animals where they pose no risk. You did well and have my respect!! And, thank you for airing the dirty secret of the hobby - disease.

It was important to me to share this experience and hopefully help others! Thank you for your message, it means a lot 🙏🏼!
Awesome as always Dayyan!
Hola Roly .I hope everything goes well, Hope reptilia.I sorry for you loss
Thank you so much for sharing. This is so devastating! I'm so sorry this happened. I'm sure we've all either learned or been reminded from this. Hugs.
Thank you so much! Means a lot! 🙏🏼
I'm so happy to see that you're back! I know this has been an extremely challenging year. Your pets are very lucky to have you. I fear the consequences would be much worse if this had happened to someone less vigilant and compassionate.
I tried to express my thanks in this video but truly, dear friend- I am so grateful! Thank you for the kind words but in the same light, the situation would have been much worse had I not had your guidance, animal treatment, knowledge, outreach and honest help. Thank you Dr. Alec 👨🏼⚕️🙏🏼
Dr. Alec you deserve some gratitude here, too. So many vets wouldn't have been as thorough as you were and it's always wonderful to see you in these videos as you clearly care so much about your patients. Hope you're doing well
@@azuradawn5683 Well said!
I'm glad you're back, but so incredibly sorry you've had to go through this. This is so scary and sad 😢
But also thank you for making this video - it's something that is very important and so often forgotten about/never known about. You handled all of this so well 💜
Thank you so much, my friend! I really appreciate your kind words and show of support!
welcome back friend 🤍
Thanks, Kat! I’m so grateful and appreciative of your love and support over these past months, friend! 🙏🏼
I am so sorry for your loss. I think your friend offering to take the remaining snakes and giving them a second chance/potential end of life care was one of the kindest and most selfless acts i've seen anyone do in this hobby, even if there was risk i think it was worth it.
Thank you! I am so appreciative of Braeden! He is a wonderful friend!
I'm someone who is very vocal when an animal needs to be put down for its and other animals' wellbeing- this wasn't one of those cases. Your snakes get to live out their lives for as long as they're comfortable with someone trusted and responsible. I don't think many others in this community would go to the lengths that you have for your collection, nor have the empathy for their audience in deciding not to post until everyone was cleared. I'm very sorry for your losses and that this happened in the first place, but incredibly relieved that your lizard species were unaffected. Thank you for the update, and can't wait for your next video!
You said everything I had been unable to articulate. ❤
An incurable disease that’s nearly impossible to kill and highly contagious puts countless other animals at risk. Who do you suggest to take in such high risk animals? You realize these crypto positive animals now contaminate everything they touch and the only things to kill crypto is 6% (or higher) hydrogen peroxide and ammonia. Are you volunteering to take them all in? I hope you don’t have any other reptiles since it spreads like wildfire.
Thank you so much! This makes me feel a lot better, tbh!
Damn bro, sorry for your loss. It's never easy losing a pet. Thank you for sharing your truth
Thank you so much, brother 🙏🏼
Im so sorry for your loss and that you went through this. But for what it’s worth, you handled it like a pro and you’re incredible for being so open about this and using your experience and platform to educate about crypto the importance of strict quarantine. 👏🏼
Thanks for the kind words, my friend! I appreciate the support 🙏🏼 and I miss you guys!
I am very sorry this happened to you. Thank you for making this video!! I am so glad to see people talking about cryptosporidium, it's a huge issue in the reptile community that everyone seems to try to ignore (such as the advice you got from your friends). It's much more prevalent than people think. It's sneaky because as you said not all animals are symptomatic so simply quarantining is not good enough, you need to test and hardly anyone does unfortunately. In the US there is Research Associates Laboratory where you can send your fecal samples and it's only $25 per test (and will ID which type of crypto).
Thanks for the tip! I'm screenying this so I won't forget. 💕
Thank you so much! Wow, thats a fantastic deal! No excuses then for American keepers :P! Everyone should be testing! Thanks for sharing that info for others to see and benefit from!
Sorry to hear that. I actually lost my entire collection that was started in 2014 this summer. I was out of town for work and my fuse went out for my minisplit in my reptile building. But after a couple months, a buddy helped me out and resparked my love for reptiles. And I'm glad to have had friends like that. Because I've already came back strong and yeah it hurts looking back. But I'm excited for the future. I hope everything works out for you
I'm so sorry you experienced that kind of loss! Glad to see you are back and enjoying the animals you love!
Dayyan, if anyone in this community can say they did everything they possibly could, it's you. ♥ You went down every single avenue available to you AND you were lucky enough to have a friend ready and willing to help you save three lives, important no matter how long those lives end up being. I hope the pain of all of this eases soon, and that this coming year is the fantastic reptile year you deserve.
Thank you so much for your kind message of support!
I’ve never been happier to be a Patron as I am right now. I’m gutted for you and so, so very sorry. I’m very happy that none of the lizards have it and I want to thank you for putting this video out. It’s an important one that will inevitably help someone recognize it in one of their animals. Hang in there, we’re with you!❤️
Thank you so much for your kind message of support! I can't express enough how much your generosity has meant over all this time! It made such a difference :).
I’m sorry for the loss of your beautiful snake, but in the end this is a story of true love and dedication for your beautiful reptiles, and to the hobby. You could have chosen to stay quiet about this and no one would have been the wiser, but by coming out you are teaching hobbyists what to look for, and how to handle a situation should it arise. I don’t have any reptiles, but I have spiders and scorpions that are my little arachnid family members. I’m keeping you and your reptiles in my prayers for a continued bright outlook for your future. Looking forward to more videos when you are ready.
I knew something was going on but I had no idea it was THIS. I am grateful you shared this with us and such a learning experience. I dont think i could handle it if it took any more of your animals. I feel so badly for your loss. I am going to tighten up on how I feed and clean my reptiles too. Glad you are back buddy it’s not the same without you
Thank you so much for your kind message of support! I'm glad the video has inspired your feeding/cleaning methods!
Wickens Wicked Reptiles mentioned you had a video. I didnt realise I'd been unsubscribed to your channel.
I am absolutely devastated for everything you had to go through. There is nothing worse than watching your animals in pain. Tha k you for educating us on Crypto. I've heard of it in passing but this opened my eyes to just how deadly it is.
Im glad you've had the strength to overcome this. I managed a farm and there are diseases like Coccidiosis where its almost impossible to diagnose until its too late and I had to sit, sometimes for days, watching your beloved creature waste away and die (i lived on a remote island and it was hard to get a vet in to Euthanize).
Euthanasia should be a last resort though. Im glad you had a willing and knowledgeable friend who was willing to commit to the specific requirements for your snakes. Its a huge commitment to limit oneself when there is so much passion.
Holy moly...Dayyan! I'm so sorry you went through this heart-wrenching mess. I'm also very, very impressed with your unwavering integrity and willingness to take the high road. Testing every animal you keep and then waiting on results had to be like a hideous and ongoing nightmare that went on and on...
I'm so relieved it's seemingly over and am confident that your procedures & practices going forward will make for a healthy new model in reptile keeping.
Between you and Alec, you could change entirely how specialty pets kept, bred and sold, making positive results in the long-term hobby.
And I congratulate you on the choices you've made going forward. What a joy it is to watch you grow and share your life.
Thank you!
PS, reading comments; its no surprise that you have such a following or that your real-time friends love & support you. You are the real deal and simply mahh-velous.
I'm touched! Thank you very much for your kindness and support. Really means a lot to me.
So glad you’re back! Wish it was under better circumstances 💚
I'm so happy to be back too! Thank you for your support and viewership! Thankfully all is well here after this hardship!
Let's go he's back!
Have a good night
Welcome! Thanks so much for being here!
@@Reptiliatus let's hope nothing like that happens again
I’m so sorry you’ve been dealing with this. But thank you so much for sharing, I think being open and honest as keepers is super important.
Thank you so much for your kind message of support!
I know I'm just a stranger on the internet, but if it's any comfort, I think you made all the right calls with your animals to give them the best lives possible. Knowing when to put down a pet is hard, and shouldn't be taken lightly, but I think you gave your snakes the best option available (and one that a lot of people wouldn't have had the option). I'm also really glad to hear that you ignored the people in your life who said to not test the rest of your animals. I would not have been able to sleep if I was in your position and I didn't test, but I'm so glad to hear that no one else was infected. I hope you never see another positive result for the rest of your life 💜
Thank you very much for the kind words of support! I'm touched by your message and really appreciate you!
Oh Dayyan, what a journey! I remember you sharing about this with me at Animal Con… my heart goes out to you, and I definitely teared up watching this. Thank you for sharing so that more people understand the severity of this, thank you for being so honest and for having such integrity in how you dealt with it, and thank you for being such a loving reptile dad. I can only imagine what going through this was like emotionally. I’m glad you took the time for yourself you needed and didn’t jump into posting just to do it. You’re a really good person and we all can learn from this. ❤
Hi! Yes, I remember our conversation fondly! Thank you so much for your sweet message! I'm really touched by your show of support :).
@ absolutely my honor. This is such an important topic to discuss and needs more airtime and attention. I still think that there should be more responsibility placed on breeders to have their animals tested before selling, but since there are no rules or regulations about that… ahem… it’s so important for us all to be educated and to do the work to quarantine and test ourselves. I for one will be looking into this more deeply, sharing it, and if/when I do get more animals, will be rigorous with precautions. Thank you.
Hello Dion.
My heart goes out to you for having to deal with this situation. I have a large (Compared to my neighbors lol) collection of Tarantula's and 1 beautiful 7' BCI female in my home. I will keep this as short as I can but I need to express how I feel you stand out in this community, and you seem to do so without effort. I have always felt I am watching the "real" Dion when you share your content. I see you as a kind and empathetic man with a passion for knowledge. I feel for you and the animals affected by this situation, and sincerely hope you are carrying no guilt over this. Please keep sharing with this community, your content is a valued addition to the knowledge bank.
Thx again
Thank you so much for your kind words and support, they mean a lot 🙏🏼.
Now that I've seen the video, I really feel for you and I appreciate you so much for taking such extreme measures to protect your animals and other keepers. We talked about a year ago about sand geckos and how I hoped to purchase from you one day. I still intend to do that, even more now knowing you are such a dedicated and trustworthy individual. You were so approachable and kind, the easy attitude you spoke with me, I always have remembered, you were friendly instead of distant like many other large youtubers. I'm not an active watcher, but I'll pop through a few more of your videos today, for Kira. You deserve the best, you are a truly wonderful keeper who did everything you could and I'm glad to see you came out the other side of it with your love and passion for these animals intact. Be blessed by all the universe, Dayyan.
Oh my gosh, this broke my heart. I am so sorry to hear this. Sending you and your babies so much love.
Thank you so much! 🙏🏼
This is my worst fear as a reptile keeper. I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I am thankful for the positive results for the rest of the room, at the very least. And I look forward to seeing how you grow from here. I'm always 50/50 about putting them down as well. With the possibility that they may live a full life, I feel that it's worth giving them the chance. If you can do it without the risk to the rest of the room, then I think that's the best course of action.
It's scary, though. You really do feel invincible, until something like this happens. Especially when you're responsible with your quarantine, and care, and cleanliness. This makes me want to get some of my animals tested, just to be sure.
Thank you for sharing! It's really important to share the reality of owning specialty pets. Sadly, painful lessons are how you often gain experience, but with always the hope that things will work out better, with that new knowledge for the future.
Very well said! I hope my message/video has been well received/helpful to the community! Thanks for your show of support!
I’m so sorry to hear about Kira and your struggles. It’s good to see you back though Dayyan, we’re hopeful for you
Thank you kindly!
I am so sorry for your loss of Ciara and your 3 remaining snakes. You are an inspiration to me and because of this video I have changed how we take care of our snakes and lizards. Thanks Dayyan! Wishing you the best for Christmas!
I am so sorry this happened to you. It seemed like nothing was going to happen to your reptiles because you take such good care of them and your enclosures are so beautiful and filled with enrichment for them. It just goes to show that if it can happen to you, it can happen to anybody.
Thank you so much for your kind message of support!
Thank you for sharing your experience in dealing with this. I had heard of Cryptosporidium before, but I did not know many details about it. I appreciate your openness to share this, even though I imagine it was quite painful to do so.
Reptilliatus, I joined your community through your sand gecko project (I am receiving some of my own species in March), but I stuck around because of how you seem to LOVE your critter with so much excitement and energy, like so many of the community’s beloved reptile channels. I am so sorry that this was in such circumstances. We will not be upset or mad at you for taking your time in your reality, we will wait patiently.
Incredible video homie. You handled this so well. Sorry you had to go through all this but appreciate you making a video and educating us all on this!
Super glad you are back, looking forward to the next video already 👏🏻👏🏻🔥
Thank you so much, brother! I appreciate your support, dearly. Thanks for the chats on this topic all those months ago, it helped a lot. Likewise- can’t wait to see all the content you have in store for us 🙏🏼!
Welcome back! That sounds extremely rough man. I’m glad you’re on the other side! Can’t wait to see some videos!
Thank you so much, I appreciate the support!
I am so sorry, Dayyen 😢 it really is hard especially when you care so much for your animals and this comes up. Thank you for sharing this information
I appreciate you! 🙏
So glad the rest of the critters are in good health, but so sorry for the lose of your one snake and having to re-home your other snakes but glad you know they have good care and are living well. It can be heart braking if one is infected it threatens the rest of your herd per say. Tfs and glad you’re back. ❤😊
I'm so sorry Dayyan! This is heartbreaking! I've been meaning to test my collection. After seeing this I'm not going to wait any longer.
Thank you so much for sharing. My heart goes out to you. What a tragic and stressful 8 months. I have always quarantined new animals but had mites spread through my collection once from a hide box I bought at an expo. I’d cleaned the hide box but not sterilized it against mites. Lesson learned. I hope this is the last time you see active crypto in your collection. Great to have you back again. I missed your videos.
Dayyan I am so sorry for what you have been going through. I can't imagine. I appreciate the information you chose to provide.
Damn bro, really sorry to hear about that! But onwards and upwards from here my friend, thank you for sharing this journey
Thanks so much! 🙏🏼
Oh my heart goes out to you 🥺 It’s hard to know what to say, so I’ll just send you a big squishy grandma 👵🏼 hug from across the pond in the UK 🤗
Thank you very much!
What a nightmare... This video and your inspiring determination to ensure your reptiles the best life possible surely goes to show just how much of a gold standard your husbandry practices are Dayyan! Thank you for what you do for the reptile community and for the awareness you bring to others in the pursuit of your dreams!
Thank you so much for your show of support!
We’ve sincerely missed you, Dayyan. Glad to see you back.
Thank you kindly! I've missed you all too and am very happy to be back!
Hello great video information glad you found out sorry for your loss Dayyan
Thank you so much!
I know this was a tough one to make. But 100% necessary. And very well done. You're a real one.
I'm glad you feel that way! It was really important to me to share this experience with others. Thank you for your comment! 🙏🏼
Welcome back! You are an inspiration to the reptile community!
Wow, Dion I'm so sorry! I'm very glad that your saga had a better outcome than I know you were fearing.
Thank you for being a responsible keeper and breeder by testing your whole collection. You are a credit to the hobby and setting a good example for others. I'm sorry this happened to you; no one deserves disease in the reptile room, but you least of all. I'm glad you are using your experience though to raise awareness and spread education about prevention.
Glad to see you back. ❤
It was important to me to share this experience and help others avoid it! Thank you so much for your support 🙏🏼!
I was wondering why you weren’t posting on RUclips. Now I know. I’m so sorry. Sometimes we do everything right and bad shit still happens….you know, you’re not the only keeper on social platforms that have had crypto. Emma from Emzotic lost a lot of geckos from it. A friend of mine is a breeder with hundreds of snakes and he had a big scare of crypto. Luckily, it wasn’t but boy was he freaking out. And that’s his livelihood too. And you’re right, we do get to feeling too safe, and let our guards down. That was really good advice regarding new animals. It sure is scary isn’t it!? Im so sorry you had to lose two to death and three more to protect the rest of your collection. Take care.
Aww Dayyan I'm so sorry this happened to you and your reptiles!
Sorry for the losses, my friend. Good to have you back!
Thank you brother! 🙏🏼
So sorry you went through all of that, how devastating :( Kudos for the transparency - imagine how many new keepers (or seasoned!) can learn about this and be proactive. It /still/ doesn't feel like it's discussed enough in the hobby, along with all the other biosafety risks (nido, arena, etc).
Absolute nightmare scenario, I'm so sorry you had to go through this! You handled it as well as one could! I'm glad you were able to find a trusted person to help your positive animals live out their lives and give you peace of mind too. Thank you for sharing your journey!
Welcome Back Dayyan! I'm so sorry you went through that but happy all are now well! Excited to see what's to come!
Thanks so much for your support! 🙏
I’m so sorry about Kyra, and I’m so sorry you had to rehome the rhinos and the garter :(. You actually helped me with my MBK Ymir so much when I first got him. You’re amazing man and you’ve handled this immensely better than I ever would’ve, I strive to be like you man you’re the best
You are an amazing keeper! And the world could use more people like you in it. Welcome back man 🙏
Thank you for your support and kind words!
Thank you for sharing this hard story. It's so important for us happy amatures and newbiees to learn about what can go wrong and how to prevent it as much as possible.
I'm so happy this turned out as well as it possibly could with your infected snakes in a safe quarantine situation and all your other reptiles checked and well.
Sorry this happened to you, thankfully it was not worse than it was. Keep up the amazing work you do!
Ooof, I'm so sorry you had to deal with this huge, stressful situation. Good to hear that the rest of your reptiles tested negative.
Thank you for your kind words. It was a stressful few months!
Sorry for your loss, but loved how educational this video is!
Thank you! I'm glad!
Man sorry to hear how much of a rough run you've had these last few months 🙁
This video was really eye opening. I appreciate you sharing the entire story.
Nice to see you jump straight on to the prevention train as well with a fully updated system!
That's true dedication and responsibility.
Thank you so much for the kind words, my friend! I greatly appreciate your show of support!
I am so very sorry for the loss of beautiful Kira. I cannot imagine the stress and heartbreak you have been feeling. I am very glad your amazing friend is taking care of your three snakes. Grateful there weren’t more losses, and I hope it remains that way. Hang in there and hoping for health in your beloved reptile room. I am so glad you chose to share this, as it is so important to know about. Thank you for the wonderful videos and your amazing channel. Best wishes moving forward. 💚
You are such an amazing example of a good animal husbandry and have wonderful morals. Thank you for sharing your story and I wish you all the best luck moving forward!
Thank you so much for your support! 🙏🏼
Brother, you’re an amazing pet owner, and voice of the hobby. You’ve done all the right things and in this struggle you’ve been facing. Keep up the amazing work and I can’t wait to see what content you come out with in the future
Im so so so sorry for this tragedy. I cant imagine how stressful this was for you. You did the best you could with the situation. Its so hard. Wishing you well. ❤
Thank you very much for the kind words of support, friend! Much love to you and your family! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!
Im so glad you’re back! I’m sorry for what you went through with crypto, I can’t even imagine how difficult you must have been. You’re such an inspiration to myself and the reptile community as a whole!
I'm so sorry you and your animals went through this. I hope you're feeling better about things now? It's good to have you back in the space you've been missed.
Thank you very much for the kind words of support! Doing a lot better, yes!
Man, sorry all that happened. SUPER glad u shared this. Everyone can learn from this, myself included. Definitely going to tighten up my sanitation process. Priceless information.
I’m so sorry this happened. Huge respect for being so open and bringing education forward. What a relief the rest of the collection have tested negative.
So happy it wasn’t any worse and am sorry for your loss, glad your back through
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing this update, Dayyan! So sorry for the challenges you've been facing with crypto - how awful. Your commitment to the well-being of your animals is inspiring!
Thank you very much for the kind words of support!
Dayyan, thank you for sharing and setting the example for what SHOULD be done. Im sorry you went through this. God bless your friend for taking on the duty and care of the snakes. What a loving act of kindness.
Thank you so much for your kind message of support!
1,000% understand u taking a break. Im so sorry this happened. That's heartbreaking but thank you for sharing. I had never heard of crypto before this. It's totally obvious how much you care about ur animals. Wishing u nothing but the very best. I was wondering wat was going on w/ not seeing any videos from u for awhile. Can't wait to c u move onward and upward from here. Positive vibes and good thoughts headed ur way from me..
Thanks, I appreciate the support, and the good vibes! It's def been rough but I am feeling very positive about the future!
Rlly glad to hear it. U got this! 💯💪🏼👍🏻
I'm glad to see you're back on RUclips Dayyan. I found your channel this year and you inspired me to get back into the hobby. I want to thank you for that man. I am so sorry about Kiera she was such a beauty.
Thank you for sharing your experience, not everyone would be so diligent. When I saw the topic, I was afraid that things could have been far worse. Glad to hear that your snakes will get to live out their lives.
Thank you friend! It has been a rough few months but I am grateful to have made it out of the woods a few months back and am looking forward to putting this all behind me.
I want to take a quick second to tell you that I'm terribly sorry that you had to go through that. Secondly I'm glad we get to see you and your animals again
my heart is heavy for everything you have been going through. I send my love and praise to you and your animals. thank you for updating all of us and we are all happy you are back.
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to me. 🙏🏼
This is unfortunate. My old dog got cryptosporidium, and as you mentioned it is not nearly as bad for mammals. I never knew cryptosporidium was this bad for reptiles, so sorry for your loss man. Hopefully you, along with the reptile room, will recover
Even just reading the title of the video, I am so so sorry this happened 😢 Thank you so much for making this video. This is hugely beneficial for anyone keeping reptiles.
Thank you for being such a compassionate and responsible keeper and for always putting your animals first. I'm so grateful that you shared all this information with us and I'm sure it will help other keepers take better care of their animals. You are wonderful and I'm glad to have you back making videos! ♥️
I appreciate the support, I'm glad to be back! 🙏🏼
I am so so sorry this happened to you! No reptile keeper wants this to be a possibility. With all the emotions and sadness aside, thank you for sharing this with us. You put in the work to get labs and learn the biology and now we all know about this, and can spread awareness and protection. I’m sorry again 😔
I’m so sorry you had to go through this. I think you handled this the best way you possibly could. Thank you for sharing your experience with everyone so we can learn from it.
Dayyan, so sad to hear of your loss! So heartbreaking! Thanks so much for sharing and hope you are doing alright.
I appreciate you, thanks! -Dayyan
Thank you for sharing. This devastating but it’s good that you did the responsible thing in dealing with this. May everything get better and better from here on out 🙏🙏🙏
Missed you, this must have been heartbreaking but you did the right thing. Thankyou for making this video.
I've missed you all, as well! I appreciate that, thank you!
I am so sorry to hear this and sorry for your loss. That said, your moral compass is amazing and I think you should be really proud of all your decisions.
Thank you so much! I am touched!
Dayyan I am sooo sorry this happened to you and your scale babies. I wish I could give you a big hug! Thank you for sharing your experience with this. And I’m so glad to see you back! I unfortunately don’t comment a lot on your videos, but I watch every single one. Much love and respect to you! I think you made the right decision by letting Brayden (sp) take your other snakes. Hopefully, they’ll live the rest of their lives symptom free. 🥹❤️ God bless you for giving them a chance!
So sorry you went through this. So awe full, but you did everything you could.
Also wanted to say I really like your style in this video. Like the hair with the facial hair, short beard with longer moustache, really suits you.
Thank you so much! Haha, noted! Appreciate the compliment!
I am sorry you been through a ruff time glad you didn't loose all your animals and thank you for further education to us as a reptile community ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing with us to help others to know about this and take proventitive messures. I know it wasn't easy. I'm sorry for what you went through these past months and your losses.
Even though this was a very difficult video, it is important to inform people in this hobby that these things can happen no matter how well you care for the animal. I truly am so sorry this happened.
Thank you for your kind words and understanding my friend. It was truly tough! I am very appreciative of your support!
So sorry you went thought this grueling and heartbreaking process. Sounds like you handled it as well as anyone could. You have a wonderful channel and extremely engaging content, and I'm glad to see you return. Thank you.
Thank you kindly! I am grateful for your support!
