Emily please take the “failed video clips” and put them together as videos and I bet a bunch of us will watch very entertained!! I love all of your guys videos.
WOW, the fact that it was 6 weeks is MASSIVE! I hope this vid attracts some experts in the breeding Mangrove field to explain what the heck CAUSED those super-thick-shelled, super-long-developing eggs!
I know with goose eggs, I got better results letting them cool for a short time each day, and then misting them with room temp water. I found their eggs seemed to be easier/ thinner for the goslings to pip through. If these snakes live in the mangroves, it might be that, normally, the eggs might go through periods of high moisture/humidity and a slight drop in temperatures. It might be something to try. At least the misting. It might help thin the shells out as the babies develop since the water is probably dissolving some of the minerals with my goose eggs. Love watching hatching videos.
The self-promo section with the "staff" helping - PRICELESS!!! Also holy crap is the male mangrove sooo much more chill than the female. He's just crawling around on Emily, curious tongue flicks, not defensive at all. Pick any video where Emily and Ed dare to enter "The Cage" and HOOO boy is she spicy!!
I had a professor in college who did surgery on chicken eggs as part of his research into fetal development, so I know that there is a way to do it safely/it's not too dangerous of a practice. While I'm not a snake expert by any means, those eggs look too dry to me, so that would be my starting hypothesis. I would expect for mangrove eggs in the wild to be regularly doused/partially submerged and somewhat adapted for that.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they need a wetter environment considering that mangrove trees are water trees so I assume the snakes are from a similar environment
Emily was absolutely bodied by all the merch 😂 Can't wait for all the other egg videos later this year! And please keep giving us updates about the new snake breeding building (and I promise we do not get bored with the cleaning bits!)
I beleive Kevin at NERD has Mangrove snake breeding experience, if you haven't already. Maybe a chat with Kevin may help fine tune your method, about his results, how calcified he finds the eggs to be, how moist he incubates them etc.
I skip ads and promos for merch every time when watching a YT video. Your merch ad BETTER be on every video from here on out because it was hilarious! Emily getting knocked over by Ed's merch toss, Gary eating the fake plant and slacking watching videos on the phone. You two have found a new career!
Cant believe I am saying this, but the add for your store was 'oddly enough' the best part of this video 😂 The merch throw, the fall, the 'employees', the adorable tiny hardhat! I cannot 😂
I wonder if in nature mom gets less calcium so it's more advantageous for her to put as much as possible into the eggs versus controlling the amount more exactly
i think maybe the humidity isnt high enough; perhaps theyre thicker to protect from excess moisture during the rainy season, and so need a higher level humidity?
I nearly died when Emily fell over from Ed throwing merch at her😂 love the hatched baby mangrove snakes! Interesting how mom and dad have yellow stripes but the babies have red. Orange. Or yellow. Guessing the red and orange are recessive. I want some live noodles to play with lol
It also may be like variable kingsnakes and (I think) green tree pythons, where there's a range of color variation and it's somewhat random what the babies look like.
This makes me wonder if the substrate these eggs are normally laid in is both damp and slightly acidic.. having the ground be slightly acidic would cause the shells to become softened since it would leach the calcium from the shell while leaving the membranes intact (think leaving a raw chicken egg in vinegar to dissolve the hard shell but on a much less extreme scale). From what i can see online they lay their eggs in tree hollows in the wild which would make some sense since decomposing wood releases things like tannins that are weakly acidic. Something else i have noticed is that the incubation periods stated for this species seem to be really inconsistent, with the smithsonian saying 45 days and zoo Thailand saying 12 weeks which is nearly double, and various forums making different claims. One source stated: "I have bred B. d. divergens three times and had learned from the mistakes on how to rear the hatchlings. Incubation temperature must be kept between 28 and 32 degreess Celsius; RH at 70-80% for a period of 52-68 days." Before going on to describe keeping the neonates in a paludarium style brood enclosure to ensure proper humidity Another source (centered around boyga cyanea but containing some useful information around boigas in general) mentioned a 112 day incubation for cyanea but most interestingly referenced the extremely tough shells seeming very unusual to them. That source then claimed they had spoken to European breeders of boigas (since they are apparently a more popularly kept species in europe) and that they were informed that the tough shells are normal for cat snakes (they also mention hatching difficulties which they attributed to the shells and potential drop in humidity, along with babies reaching full term but never hatching) All sources i have seen seem to suggest that the biggest key to success with incubation is high humidity and that neonates need the same high humidity. Many imply that force feeding is necessary to start off neonates or that there is a low success rate with hatching and neonate survival in general but there doesn't seem to be all that much information
A way to test this would be to split a clutch and incubate one half normally and use blackwater to hydrate the other half to simulate the natural environmental conditions (best way I've found to make it personally for use in aquariums is using black alder cones, either sanitised by baking them first or by just boiling them and then using that water directly). Blackwater is also known to have mild antifungal properties so that could be an additional benefit.
Your theory on the tannins and the acidity makes so much sense to me. Nearly all tropical fish from that region (especially bettas and gourami) also do better with high tannins and more acidic conditions, so it would stand that snakes from roughly the same environment would also require that
Not only is that male very well mannered, he looks extremely friendly and very social! He was sniffing Emily all the time, climbing her, trying to go on her head lol Such an adorable lil man, and my god is he beautiful, those colors are amazing
Maybe the high calcium content in mice or rats compared to maybe a bird or a chick? Truely a mystery why the eggs are too thick to hatch from! Edit: just got to the part where you explained you fed the adults chicks! The mystery deepens!!
congratulations,that was incredible. So now you know its possible to keep developing even after the shell was cut. if before they are finished another time,that might come in handy at another time when you have doubts and are worried the little creature inside are drowning. It might be worth looking at something to keep it a bit better cl,osed,and keep the fluids in the egg, maybe with surgical glue or small pieces of thin silicone bandage ,im not sure what you call it in english,its used for burnwounds and other skindamage that takes a long time to heal. mayby you could look at what they have at a farmacey,
Honestly, I'm so happy for you two! I've been a follower since Rex was adopted and seeing the progress has been amazing! Going from inside your own home to a massive warehouse and store has been incredible. I'm so happy to see the clutch of Mangroves survived as having captive bred snakes is so important to the trade. I wish everyone at Snake Discovery the best! Everyone is amazing!
LOL I get that feeling. My last clutch of white lined eggs was taking forever and I had resolved that if they didn't hatch within a couple of days, I was going to assist the first egg and see where it was at. Ended up not needing to, but I had pretty much stopped watching. Then I had gotten used to the eggs hatching 3-4 days apart and the second one hatched the next day instead.
Im still blown away by this,i showed my son the video this morning ,i have tought him that eggs dont develop when the shell is open and now i had to tell him it possible,at least in some cases. If you have to cut eggs and are uncertain if its a bit early in the future i think sterile gloves a box that has just been sterilized and boiling water might be worth it,you can just put the perelite in as usual,boild the water and puur the amound in you need and put the lid on while it cools off. it was obvious that fungi and bacteria were the biggest threath to these eggs after they were cut,so reducing that factor might do the difference in more cases than most of us have been aware of previously,im pretty sure that includes yourself because you seemed just as stunned as me.
Very interested in purchasing a captive bred baby mangrove snake from you guys! Theres so many untrustworthy snake breeders that ive seen have them, but I'd absolutely buy one from yall!
Oh my gosh my new dream is to hold a (friendly) mangrove snake!!!! I love how much they love to climb and explore. Ever since I got over my fear of snakes because of you guys, I’ve been wanting to meet you and maybe touch a snake or two…but now I REALLY want to hold a mangrove snake too! 😊💛
It almost makes me wonder if they were incubated with too low humidity? Maybe next time you get eggs you can test that by just having a higher humidity, maybe even higher temperatures, since they're endemic to southeast Asia, which tends to be very hot and wet. I don't know, just a thought. But I'm glad you're trying to captive breed since I hate when people get wild caught and keep getting wild caught instead of trying to breed them.
Dear Emily and Ed, I’ve been watching your Chanel for years now since I was like 13 or 14 and I’m so happy to say I’m so proud of yall for all the accomplishments and all the hard work you put into everything you have yall started in a little old house back way back in with you incubating snakes in your closet lol and now look you have a zoo yall have a warehouse house and now yall are starting a whole breeding facility I’m now 17 and the second I turn 18 I will be making the drive from Alabama up there to get to visit your zoo and if I get lucky I might get to meet yall I’m so proud of yall. Thank you for sharing your journey with all of us. Love, Makayla
I wonder if they are over calcified? Perhaps the mothers naturally don't get enough calcium to harden the shells, so when they do, they over harden the shells. I wouldn't want to test that theory, and I have no experience or expertise, but I do have to wonder.
I got my wisdom teeth removed today, and this video definitely helped me feel better. Thank you for your wonderful videos, I always look forward to more babies and breeding videos along with the shenanigans
Hi Ed & Emily! I stumbled across an article in Scientific American that REALLY grabbed my attention! It was about the Ringed Caecilian, and about the mother feeding her young when they "cry" for it! It isn't the same way as a mammal, but she "nurses" the babies! And of course it's very... interesting?, that they eat her skin every 7 days or so! Can you tell i get excited about this stuff?😂 But you probably already know about this amphibian...
Mangrove snake eggs are indeed very thick, and a lot of the Mangrove snake babies don’t really develop their egg tooth fully. Helping them is a great choice! This usually happens with bred mangrove snakes! And usually the egg also cracks on its own Hope that’s helpful :3
I remember there was an experiment where some grade schooles grew chicken eggs out of the shell using plastic shrinkwrap and an incubator, maybe you could do that if you ever have a cracked egg.
wondering if ed and emily have seen the footage of the newly discovered northern green anaconda yet! from what i’ve read green anacondas were seen to be one species but have now been identified as genetically distinct. the anaconda found and filmed by freek vonk was 26 feet long and 440 pounds!
The little Snake Discovery hard hat! 😂 Also, it's crazy to me they continued developing and survived with their end decapitated! I'm guessing that "film" blocking the view was what held in their moisture and stuff, allowing them to continue developing. It's amazing that they all survived too! I'm glad y'all incubate for a long time instead of calling it a failure and tossing them
Oh Mangrove babies🖤💛 This’s what I’ve been waiting for a long time! Those all 4 babies look so healthy too😃 Congrats to Emily, and welcome to the world babies!
Oh my gosh I love y'all videos and I'm so happy those baby snakes hatched for y'all finally. I can't wait for my summer vacation y'all are on my list of places to come visit and I hope y'all are there but if you're not I totally understand. Love your videos much love Denver Colorado
The add was amazing and yay, miracle babies. I’m trying to fathom how last year they were ready on time, but didn’t hatch. This year, you helped and they waited an extra 40+ days. Those eggs are crazy hard, though
Hooray for hatches! So interesting how the eggs for the mangroves are so hard/thick, happy that you guys cut them and they survived! I can only imagine how interesting it has to be to work with these animals and figure out how to successfully breed and hatch them. Awesome video, and here's holding out for the eventual scaleless ratcorns after getting on the waitlist!
“Oh my god, I didn’t kill ‘em!” The victory cry of every animal breeder at some point
so true
That's me with plants lmao

Omg yes I want to know about the green tree eggs now!!
They might have sad endings where eggs never hatched or babies failed to thrive.
@@sarahloomis2034Exactly. The reason we are seeing this one is because they didn't all die.

It unfortunately could be baby coloring that they lose as they grow
Either that or someone cheated

Emily And Ed: "How did these hatch?!"
Life finds a way.
You forgot the ".. uhh..."

Ayy the snake subtitles are back!
I always loved them the most in the early Snake Discovery days!!
Mangroves are such attractive snakes. That black with yellow-orange bands is just gorgeous.
that mold was worrisome. I'm glad they made it!!
Mangrove implies a wet environment, maybe highly variable depending on humidity 🤔
ahh yes the old incubate until no debate! so glad they hatched out! it was indeed looking dire but they are so pretty :D
congratulations,that was incredible.
So now you know its possible to keep developing even after the shell was cut. if before they are finished another time,that might come in handy at another time when you have doubts and are worried the little creature inside are drowning.
It might be worth looking at something to keep it a bit better cl,osed,and keep the fluids in the egg, maybe with surgical glue or small pieces of thin silicone bandage ,im not sure what you call it in english,its used for burnwounds and other skindamage that takes a long time to heal. mayby you could look at what they have at a farmacey,

I recommend a king cobras, or eastern diamondback rattlesnake, for beginner snakes.
The add was amazing and yay, miracle babies. I’m trying to fathom how last year they were ready on time, but didn’t hatch. This year, you helped and they waited an extra 40+ days. Those eggs are crazy hard, though
The advertisement was my favorite part lol
1:43 I am so glad you mentioned this now, since we’re building my gecko a new tank soon
ITA MIRACLE! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUUTTTE
Totally Fantastic! Thats some super antibiotic property's of the eggs to survive a cut like that and make it through. Interesting. Beautiful.
Hooray for hatches! So interesting how the eggs for the mangroves are so hard/thick, happy that you guys cut them and they survived! I can only imagine how interesting it has to be to work with these animals and figure out how to successfully breed and hatch them. Awesome video, and here's holding out for the eventual scaleless ratcorns after getting on the waitlist!
...I think a mangrove snake just might be my favorite snake. They're so pretty and cute.
