Aussie Snake owner here! Luca the Carpet looks more like a Jungle than a Coastal. There's a lot of cross-breeding between those two species though, and it's almost impossible to find one of either species without a relative of the other species somewhere in their lineage. But he looks a LOT like a Jungle.
I was just about to say he seems more of a jungle python
Upvoting and commenting so they see this! I'm sure they'd love to know this information. Thanks for teaching me a little more about carpet pythons too :)
I agree Jungles tend to have a busy pattern and be more vibrant.
He looks like my het albino Darwin.
Could we say he’s a mix between a jungle and a coastal? Mines most likely a coastal - unsure as he’s a rescue, but mine has a beefier face and darker colouration, Luca’s cheeks are beefy but his ‘snout’ is more pointed and he’s quite dark but much lighter towards his head, jungles are brighter yellow in colouration and have that more pointed shnoot from what I’ve seen also?
This sounds so weird but I love the ambient noise of the zoo at night. All the lil froggos singing and such. It's so pretty.
It is pretty much an urban jungle when you think of all the living beings in there :O
Yeah! I think it'd be a wonderful experience to just sit there and draw. Or read..
All of them screaming, "**** ME! **** ME! **** ME!!!"
I’ve loved it too but when it all stopped with the I kinda thought it was a recording? Or do frogs just stop in the dark?
The sound stops when the lights go out. They don't have enough frogs to generate that noise naturally
watching from the start of the facility to now makes it feel a little bit like my baby too! Which is maybe dumb but it's amazing to see how far it's come, you guys have put your hearts and souls into it and it really shows!
Siruisly though
Frrr
It really does show. I've also been watching from the start and it's been so cool watching it all come together ❤️
I so agree
Time really flies I remember watching the announcement video and just kept waiting
I still say it would be awesome to have a invert cave, "camp-in" where you invite kids and one of their guardians to have a all nighter learning about the animals. Then, after all the nocturnal animals are learned about, everyone gets their sleeping bags and has a sleep on the cave floor! You could have little tents set up as changing rooms and get smore related treats for a fun little snack. I think it would be AMAZING!
yessss! when i was in primary school my grade got to go to an aquarium and sleep there and it was the coolest experience! 10/10 sleeping in zoos is a fun idea
@@ollie694 oh wow, I had not heard of it being something people have done haha. I thought it was an original idea. I am SO happy people do this already! Maybe Emily and Ed will see this and make it a thing too! Thank you so much for letting me know this!
Toledo Zoo does this! It's super cooӀ!
I would have to declare myself an honorary kid to participate in this! (I once declared myself an honorary kid when my son went to a summer adventure camp, so I could help them play with Cuddles the boa, a very friendly snake. One of the other moms said, "aren't you afraid to touch it? snakes are slimy!' and I said, "no, his skin feels dry and smooth, like a snakeskin wallet. And she put her hand on the snake and said, "Yeah, what a surprise!" Cuddles was a very sweet snake.
This would be awesome to maybe do with your local scouts!
Emily!! You used my Christmas gift stick for Luca's enclosure!! From Luke to Luca the carpet python with hugs!!! Yay! Thank you for the shoutout!! :) I was so surprised!
It looks awesome!
@@KismetLizard Hi Francii - thank you so much! :) :)
@@LukeBugAdventures You're welcome! I love your work with mantids, you're so well informed and considerate :)
Wow - your mantids are amazing, and Emily and Ed are amazing for adding them to their zoo.
I couldn't help but grin when they were talking about how they hoped the carpet python would climb. I live in Australia and let me tell you, it's rare to find them anywhere but climbing spots XD These little noodles are constantly playing The Floor is Lava. Though given Australia, it pretty much almost is XD
Haha, that last sentence made me laugh a lot 😂
Haha I'm in the southeast US and it's gray rat snakes here! Bird feeders, ladders, cables, anywhere they can be but shouldn't, that's where you find gray rat snakes 🤣 They're like the raccoons of snakes
I adopted my Hog Island Boa through Snake Discovery from that same house as the carpet python! She's doing wonderfully in a nice big enclosure with lots of love, whether she wants it or not, although she's extremely docile. I named her Saturn! :D
That's so awful what happened to those snakes; thank you for giving one an amazing home! Love the name Saturn :)
Saturn is living the dream! ❤️ love to you and Saturn!
I'm so glad Saturn found you.
So happy to hear Saturn found a good home with you! ❤️
As someone who has carpet pythons living in their yard, its odd seeing them as pets. I'm sure he will use the whole space. The ones near me are in trees more often than not.
Wow you’re so lucky you have them in your yard! I love carpet pythons
Wait... You're australian?
@@webodeescorpion7037 Yes, there are a few of us about the place. I'm listening to the screeching of a juvenile channel billed cuckoo begging for food from anything with wings as I type. I have Eastern Water Dragons across the street, a Blue Tongued lizard in my back garden, green tree frogs, graceful tree frogs, and carpet pythons galore.
@@lepeke Sounds almost like a paradise 😄 wonder if I'm looking through rose tinted glasses though 😅
@@chloemae4959 I love it here but, like every place, there is down sides. The humidity isn't enjoyable for one.
Shanon slowly digging a tunnel with a spoon for her great escape. xD
Also, eastern is to sassy to be Fry. He's more a Bender. xD
lol
My little hognose is almost always out and about and I was not expecting that! She’s so cute and funny.
Mines always active. I give her a hammock to and she's always using it to climb. She shows off
@@sahvanna97 so cute, i’ve been wanting a hognose for so long now
A hognose is my dream snake thats so cute! (My mom also said I could have a snake so eventually maybe!!)
@@iimuffinsaur it’s my dream snake too and my husband surprised me with her for Christmas.
@@iimuffinsaur hehe me too. i love them!
Ally is literally just a dog, she has my entire heart. 💖
She really looked like a dog when yawning. 😊
2:15 “oh no I forgot to lock the cage and the wild Emily got out.”
“IM FREE!”
“You’re gonna bite me like Priscilla.”
“You know it!”
Made my day. Top tier content from you guys. Keep doing what you do! You are awesome!
I can't wait until I can come see this in person, and congrats on finally finishing!! Also when Emily was *inside* the enclosure 🤣🤣🤣 I thought you would stop posting so constantly once the facility was ready, but here you are!
I forgot where the store is, do u know? I wanna see this place too.
@@TheCheeseburgerJudgesYou I'm pretty sure it's in Maplewood Minnesota but I'm not totally sure, you can just look it up if you want
@@TheCheeseburgerJudgesYou if you look up snake discovery up on Google their store should be the first to pop up
Same
Ya, it seems like they're posting more, but that might be because I have a little more time to watch them right away.
One thing I love about you guys is that you got the zoo for the snakes, not the snakes for the zoo. It's so great to know that animals are cared for! 🙂❤👍
And they adjust if someone doesn't like being in the zoo
New rule Emily and Ed need to watch scrubs. Such a great show regardless of snakes and welfair and I'm so glad everyone is doing so well!!!
Carpet pythons in Australia are almost always heading up something. I get photos from my friends up north of pythons on, or even in, their houses. Just released a little Blotched bluetongue skink I rehabed this morning (registered carer). Had too many ticks, and a bit of a neuro reaction to it. Just fed it until the toxins worked their way out of its system.
Ticks are literally evil. I'm sure the guy really appreciated what you did for him.
The amount of positive comments minutes after upload really shows how positive this community is. I love their videos and they continue to make my day.
I totally agree 👍👍
Same
:D
Luca looks SO happy in that shot of him all sprawled over his branches. He definitely deserves it and it makes my heart happy.
Luca looks like a jungle python like my boy, they calm down really nicely with regular handling. If he’s anything like my dude he’ll just allllllll of his space
looks like a Jungle/Jag morph
@@TheSkillet2012 I hope he doesn’t have any jag in him just for the fact that potential neuro issues break my heart
My jungle calmed down super well. Though I learned very quickly that the nighttime is the right time, for feeding, that is. Any handling has to be during the day because of course any movement at night is food, obviously. :)
@@TheSkillet2012 actually he dosnt really look like a Jag to me, Ive had 5 rescued jags and my personal snake is a Jag, I don't think he looks much like them at all. I'm thinking he looks kinda like a diluted julatten jungle (probably butchered that spelling) and agree he looks like a jungle coastal mix. Higher percentage of jungle expressed than a coastal when it comes to physical build
Agreed, heads not quite bulky enough to be any other carpet, but I think he'd be a jungle coastal hybrid because his head isn't quite flat enough or angular enough to be a 'pure' jungle. My boy is about the only snake Ive met that doesn't like climbing tho, even my woma choses to do it where as Acari prefers to be on the ground. Who knew
I just went to the zoo for the first time the other day and I got to see the carpet python in all his glory!! He was up on the branch checking everyone out. It was awesome 🥰
Luca looks like a jungle and coastal hybrid in my opinion, his head isn't chunky enough to be any other carpet but not quite flat or angular enough to be a pure jungle. That sassyness will probably go away after a bit more handling, but carpets do love to eat!! I love you guys and have been following you for quite a few years, my goal is to visit the zoo one day. Please keep up the good work and I'll look forward to the next video!!
I'm glad to hear that you are planning on night tours, I suggested the same thing a while back. I think that night tours will prove to be popular since it will allow guests to see animals that are normally only active at night actually out and doing their thing.
I fondly remember sleepover events my school held when I was a kid. We played games and had a bonfire until late at night, then we all got out a sleeping bag and just slept on the floor and on the desks in our classroom. This would be a fun idea for little kids and they could watch all the nocturnal animals. Only issue I see is that I don't think the retail area can be closed off?
Love to see Ally so happy and content in her enclosure! She really seemed to enjoy the pets too, she definitely moved her head into Ed's hand there and closed her eyes a little!
you guys are the reason i have my two hoggies and ever since construction started i’ve been begging to go once y’all have opened. i get to come this summer for my 16th birthday and i’m so so excited!! thank you so much for fuelling my passion and special interest in reptiles 🧡🧡🧡
That's so awesome! Hoggies are so cute with their little snouts. I'm excited for you!
i have been watching y’all for about 2 years and i still do because y’all make it fun but interesting
Aww I'm so happy for Luca. Poor baby probably thought at one point that he would never leave that basement container, and now he has an incredible, naturalistic enclosure!
Luca's story is so heartbreaking! I'm so happy all those animals ended up with you guys. The zoo just keeps getting better and better! Congratulations!
John Dorian is the main character of Scrubs! An AMAZING show
Thank you so much for continually posting videos. You guys have helped me get through so much in my life and deserve all the best :)
So exciting!! Definitely worth it to celebrate the milestones, and mention as often as possible how you adopt and rescue reptiles - it's a small community, and there's always a need, so thank you for doing that!
Ah yes hognoses, they like dry environment and digging. I think mine is broken, she either chills in her humidity box (usually head out checking what's going on) or hanging on the branches as close to the ceiling as possible. Love the derp nonetheless!
Might be tempature related? Just a thought. When animals behave in unexpected ways there's usually a reason. Or maybe you have an odd little hognose and there is nothing to worry about 😂
@@RamoArt According to everyone I have consulted on the temps they are fine, the behaviour doesn't seem to increase or decrease with temperature changes either. Also there is surprisingly a lot of climbing hognoses around if you check hognose related communities, so I assume it's just them/her being bit... Special =D
@@jennis8561 happy to hear that you've already considered the temperature being an issue. I mean, there's cats that like water.. So why not climbing hognoses?
My boa acts like a puppy and likes digging. He broken too
I'm so glad that Luca has such and big and exciting home to live in now!!! I can't believe someone could just leave their poor pets behind like that, but I'm so glad you were there to find them. I'm sure Luca is glad you found him too.
I absolutely love seeing Luca’s coloring working as camouflage with the branches in his enclosure 🥰
I just made the 6 hour trip today to come to your facility! sadly both of you weren't coming in till later so I didn't get to meet you, but I had so much fun! I've been wanting to see Rex in person since I started watching these videos years ago.
Wow! a carpet python! I'm always surprised at how many snake and reptile species have made their way over to the US.
The blood lines are pretty thin because most are animals that are decendants from those brought over before AUS shut down the trade.
Of the species that live around my home probably just the Dekay's brown snake (Ed and Emily have some) and the Texas rat snake would make good pets. The others are too aggressive and/or venomous. Kingsnakes & milksnakes, which also make good pets, live in my area but I haven't seen any nearby yet.
John "J.D." Dorian is the main character on Scrubs, and if you don't watch Scrubs, you're missing out! It's on Hulu.
My hognose climbs a LOT, when I got her a new enclosure people were confused about how much height I gave her until they saw that she spends about half the time up there 😂
I wish mine did, he spends all his time in his burrows. I hope that changes when I switch to bioactive
Emily could you do a virtual tour through the zoo showing all the animals for all of us to far away to see it in person? I would love and I think everybody else would to
Yes! And maybe we could get a update on the snakes I mentioned in my previous comment? 😊🥰
I think the solution really needs to be that Ed & Emily watch Scrubs! Seriously, how have you guys not watched Scrubs?!?
If you have a Christopher Turk you -need- a JD, too! :o
Scrubs is a great watch.
Scrubs is such a good show. I highly encourage you to give it a shot. It is one of my top favorites
These videos truly make my day! I used to watch them with my cousins before I moved away!
i got the reference for JD and Turk instantly! scrubs is a fantastic show
Luca looks so content! He's just checking it all out thinking "Wow! Did I just hit the lotto?!"
I like how you can tell by their manners and actions they Don't really script their videos true or they may have like a little plan of what they're going to do in the video but they don't really script anything so everything that comes out of their mouth is just completely natural
Call him JD for short like in scrubs. I believe you have rescued a Turk as well which from scrubs too
I was so excited to see the zoo in December and now I have a new reason to fly from Michigan to see it again! Thank you for being so consistent with posting even though you’re busy running the facility! Just wanted to let you know we really do appreciate it
Living for the scrubs names!
10:20 at night. Ready for bed. However Snake discovery comes first
Hi you guys have helped me with so much of my animals and I just want to thank you guys
As a German, whose plan to go to America still lie years in the future, I would love to see a virtual zoo/facility tour. Kind of where you walk us from the entrance through the whole zoo and let us look into all the enclosures!
It would be so exciting to get the walking around and see all the enclosures experience that I don‘t have the opportunity to get otherwise :)
When the facility calms down would you guys make a video about the snakes that we haven’t seen in a long time? Like the female axanthic cribo, the sun-glow boa from the auction, the albino burm named Sunkissed, the normal burm named Boomshika or just shika for short. Maybe a tour of the breeding room? Or the zoo? I absolutely love that you guys put your heart and soul into what you do! Best wishes and all the luck 🍀 to you
Always so happy when you guys upload ♡ Thank you for all that you do, Emily and Ed!
I love how much effort time & care into all of your animals
I think a night time walk through would be so amazing!! The nocturnal sights and sounds in your videos are fabulous.
I love the sound of the frogs. It sounds so peaceful.
Shoutout to the frogs for providing excellent background music for this video
Luca is so happy to be climbing, it's like he's been waiting for so long to be arboreal.
So emotional seeing everything done! Especially seeing all of the rescues finding new homes, and getting these beautiful enclosures after they’ve been struggling. You guys are doing incredible things and we are so proud!💚
As someone that follows Chandler & Tyler... I am excited to see the new venomous species. You guys handle everything extremely well. Just keep being safe!
I am amazed how far you have come I have been watching for a few years now and I am proud
You haven't watched Scrubs? Totally should, it's great! (And I barely watch anything...besides RUclips xDD)
Luca's story is so sad! I'm glad to see him happily exploring his new home :3
I still remember you showing us the building when you first purchased it . Its been a long mad few years . But look at it now . I'm so happy for you guys . 😃
“Are you ready to be intimidated”
-luka the carpet python
i honestly wish that one day i can come up here with my family and visit this place, it looks so wonderful and amazing-
I just love how she has so many cool snakes and that we are also both named Emily!
Luca looks so happy about his new enclosure, so cute! I almost cried when you told his story and then showed him exploring the new big enclosure with such shiny eyes ❤️
I love the dialogue written for all the animals, cracks me up. Especially Luca's.
Have a trip planned next week for Tinley and the zoo is on the way! So excited to meet all of the lovely bois
I’ve been watching for around 3-4 years and watching your channel grow is amazing. Good work guys!
Just in case you it didn't occur to you, be careful with setting lights/lightbulbs up in wood, it can get pretty hot and be a fire risk from what I've seen.
I began watching this channel when I was around 8/9, and looking at this channel grow, and the facility get built, it gives me so much happiness, as they deserve all of this and more, they care so much for all of their animals, and it warms my heart to see them opening a zoo they’ve been working on for so long. Keep up the good work, and I hope the zoo goes extremely well!
I love you guys! I can’t wait to visit sometime!
I petition Ed and Emily watch Scrubs as it's an excellent show.
Hello Ed and Emily, i am an Australian snake enthusiast and i can positively tell you that Luca is most likely a Jungle carpet python due his colouration, pattern and my experiences with most jungle carpet pythons having an attitude. Ps love the videos keep doing what you are doing
sincerely, your subscriber, Baizl
I love the thought and care you put into creating the perfect enclosure and choosing the right snake for it too. It's so nice to hear you considering the snake's personality and their comfort with people etc before popping them into the zoo.
I love your videos Ed and Emily :D you make the most educational content, but its also so entertaining :))
Im whereing a pich pick pickchu
I love u Emily I’ve been following u for so long on so many accounts of mine for so many years. I’ve begged my mom to come check out ur zoo!❤️❤️
I am soooo proud of how far you have come! I remember watching back when you were building the Zoo. Good job to you, your husband and the crew!! 🥰
I love carpet pythons and have been keeping them for decades so I am happy to see one in your zoo and what a lucky snake to have ended up in your care!
for Sharon's corner- i don't know how likely it might be she'll dig through the wood/concrete back there- but could you maybe get a metal sheet and attach to the wall, with screws or something, to at least make sure she doesn't tunnel through the wall itself?
or i don't know if it's that big of a problem, since the universal rocks panels would still need replacing every once in a while anyway
I love this channel so much! Every time they post my day get so much better!
Every once in a while I get the urge to watch the playlist of the facility videos from the beginning again just to see how far we've all come as a community, and how far you have come Emily and Ed, in making your dreams come true!
Yayyy happy snaakes~ Also, happy me, seeing my sticker on one of the bins (the black and gold intertwined demigod serpents)!! Curious whose bin that is, hahaha.
I would love an evening tour. That’s so cool
So cool to see that carpet up high. I would guess (from my limited carpet experience mind you. I only had some for a little while) that he is either a brighter costal carpet than I usually see. Or a jungle crossed with a costal because I have seen those pretty often too.
We're pretty sure he's a cross ;) Nobody has been able to confirm though!
@@SnakeDiscovery Maybe those DNA testing folks you had an episode about recently will eventually have a test for that.
@@SnakeDiscovery Yeah. That is just my guess. But it is almost impossible to tell.
Luca is so cute! I'm so glad he found such an amazing home! He really deserves it!
The croaking was making me so sleepy, even though the video was super interesting. Makes me think of summer nights at my grandparents place out in the countryside, especially after a good warm rain, so nostalgic
I think a chameleon would be a good addition to the family
I think they already have one? I remember his halloween costume was a pun on "karma chameleon"
They have some false chameleons I'm pretty sure
they have a male panther chameleon in the enclosure next to Rex
Awesome! The zoo looks great!
aww poor Tiny! It's a shame he feels uncomfortable and wont eat in his zoo enclosure, but im excited to see what you put in his enclosure in the meantime. I'm sure you can find a really aweome rescue reptile or two to put in there
Yay! Caught a glimpse of my favorite snakes! The dekays!
I’m so excited for y’all you make such great quality videos and work so hard!
You should give Scrubs a try! It's one of my favorite shows! Super funny with the occasional heartwarming moment.
Every time you post it makes my heart jump! I love your videos so much I get so hyped when you post a new video!
You two have come so far with the zoo. So proud of both of you. Your doing a great job.
I live in finland but some day ill visit here. Snake discovery gave me the courage to get my first snake and now i want more :D im planning to get a boa to be the garbage for my ball python that is picky eater 😅
Carpet pythons are native here. I have two living under my house. Love them.
Oooh I love emerald tree boas! I did a report on them in third grade, and fell in love in the process of doing research. They’re so pretty.
I got teary seeing Luca go into his new enclosure. God bless you guys 💕
