Kevin always stops himself when he is teaching something and starts explaining something related but afraid of going off topic and honestly I feel like that’s something he’s been called out for in the past and why he might stop himself and try to stay on target but I love it. He has so much knowledge and a really good way of drawing people in that I’d honestly listen to whatever he wanted to teach me about and all the mini stories that lead up to that particular lesson. It’s a great thing to be able to captivate people’s attention and teach them something. There is never a time when he’s talking about something that I don’t want to listen because I learn something new or at least a new perspective every time. I enjoy the videos so please don’t stop making them!
Xenobaby haaaa haaaa thank you . I try to stay kind of on target as I think about other points as I talk and expand what I’m saying. I try to back up collect myself and make sure my intent is understandable. I may repeat things a bit that I think are important so a newbie understands it’s a key point. Thank you for your kind thought ! K
New England Reptile you’re welcome! I just relate so much so it doesn’t bother me! I always start telling a story but then have to explain something so that story makes sense lol keep it up though! Your knowledge has value!
I made a mistake !!! The ZOOMED thermostat has 600 watt limit and I said it could handle more.... I had mixed up stats from one of our other thermostats !!!! Kevin
Thanks! I'm surprised you can keep all that straight in your head as it is!
Debra Hall I suggest multiple smaller ones instead of the larger ones!!!!!! Two instead of one us safer! K
Might wanna pin this comment to the top of the feed
Hey, I watch you constantly on tv but can’t figure out how to like or comment on there.
Kevin, just wanted to say, forget the haters, you are a fount of information and I am hooked on your channel. Just watched your new video on the micro-scales and wanted to give you an “atta boy!” but now can’t find that video on my phone so, here it is, great job! I’m old school, no tech guru here! 61 year old great grandma and just started buying my snakes less than a year ago thanks to you and Brian. My grandsons want to come visit so hopefully this summer we’ll head your way!
Great job! Keep it up!
Causey’s Critters thank u buddy!!!!!!
Nice enthusiasm Kevin haha, that's literally me at my job LOL! We appreciate the effort Kev! Really enjoying these care videos guys, it's nice to get these from what I consider a trusted source 😊!
Great video Kevin and a must watch for newer reptile keepers !!!
Great content and valuable info. Ive seen too many people hop into this hobby completely blind and with little and in most cases no research. Kevins excitement is contagious and its a great tool to draw the rookie hobbyist in and really listen to whats being said. Ive kept snakes and other reptiles for almost 15 years now off and on and i learn something from almost every video and i really appreciate it. Your willingness to bestow everything you know on all of us makes your viewers very lucky
Reptilian King thank you very very much!!!! K
Yes I bought this thermostat right before new years and I love it. It's so easy to see and read and operate
Videos like this may seem lame to make to some but they are really needed in the community. Especially for the novice reptile lover.
Thank you! K
I can attest to the very zoomed thermostats Kevin is showing here. I have them on quite a few of my racks and they are actually very accurate and great little thermostats, I highly recommend them. Great video as always Kevin.
Do you still think the reptitemp digital thermostat is a good product? Should i get one for my heat mat?
Profession outlook on these products is brilliant, thank you for this you guys!
Love seeing product reviews from top experts. 😊 I've been unsure of what thermostats to recommend to new reptile keepers that won't break their budgets when all of mine are more expensive since they're designed for controlling large racks.
I tape my thermostat probe outside the enclosure directly on the heat pad and check temps inside with a temp gun every wk or so. That way my hogs don't move it in their renovations and my sand boas don't poop on it to throw off the reading. I'll have to check the zoomed thermostat out, thanks!
Kevin you are the man!!! All your advice and knowledge helps us tremendously. Please keep the information coming. 🤙
Def do more videos like this. You should go over how to set these products up and show different variations/mixed products together to show an optimal system. Def feel like enclosure setups with products you need is untapped content.
Love the information in this more expert advice from Kevin
That looks like an awesome budget friendly thermostat.
NERD rules!
great video and awesome info! thank you :)
You guys rock .. my daughter has done something to my phone .. so not been able to take to you guys every time your live ... gotta get my son to help me figure out what she's done .. i know she deleted some stuff that .. she's gotta keep her grown ass hands off my phone and get her own .. but ill get it figured out so i can talk toya guys on every video .. you inspired me alot and i enjoy seeing you guys .. Exspelly Kevin sexiness 😉❤ .. thanks for sharing and for all you are guys .. much love, and stay well and safe guys (Kevin)😉😎
Tracy Williams thank you !!!!!! K
I really enjoy listening to Kevin. Provides straight forward information without being all dramatic and fake like many other channels. As for Zoomed, my bulbs are constantly burning out. I just gave up and got some other brand. Have you guys had any issues with the bulbs?
I need that "wheeeeeee!" as my text tone. Honestly it would bring no end of joy 😂😂
Great knowledge from Kevin as always!
Kevin I think you should really do a documentary on keeping big snakes and such. Try to get it on Netflix or something idk. Keep the reptile community in good light and keep channels like The Reptile Channel in their place to be disgraced. Love your vids man. Inspired me to get into big constrictors and am the proud father of a 4 month old sunfire retic. Love you guys at NERD!
djay caht thank uuu !!! K
Great content! Kevin needs to do intro/outro. Or you can voice over those. Love you guys!!!!
Love the info! Lets be honest its always real and honest! The twitching though good demonstration 😂 you didnt look stupid!!!
As always very informative 😊🥰
Good to know.
I'm watching u live on twitch telling me to watch this video so here I am LMAO ..
I seen Clint Reptiles in this thumbnail , that's why i am here!
I would get one of the thermostat showing but the stories never have them and are always sold out online
I use the same thermostat and never have problems
Am I the only one that got a flashback to middle school science class
What the fuck? Somebody opened the door and didn't get yelled at? Is crabby Kevin getting soft in his old age?... LOL! Keep up the awesome content, NERD!
I only plan to use during the night will unplugging cause any issues to the device? Or what the proper way shutting it off if any?
I use Herpstat 6 or 4s and I think they are they best
Supreme Pythons check out BBC the zoo med price point!!!!!!! K
So ive always wondered how do lizards get all this calcium and other vitamins in nature? Do they lick it up like cows do a salt block, and do you think snakes need d3, or because most are nocturnal usually not?
《dobber 》 whole pretty stomach contents and such. K
I have a heat mat that has a dial on it but I still want to use a thermostat, should I just leave the heatmat on the highest setting and let the thermostat to the regulating?
How would you place the thermostat probe for overhead heating, specifically with a BTS that likes to burrow and generally be a menace? 😂
Would you recommend a thermostat on the cooler side to monitor the ambient or cooler temp?
Delaina Mallozzi generally mo but digital thermometers are good to watch the ambient temps. K
what is your opinion on ceramic heating elements ?
shawn simon love them !!!! K
So, am I able to leave the probe in my snakes substrate above the UTH area?
Nico F yes fasten down securely
got a reptile question for kevin or anyone for that matter , so my ball pythons have got swimming pools ( lol) in there tubs , i use reptisafe in the water to get rid of any crappy chemicals , would it be better to use electrolytes , or would you use both . or just stick to what im doing ?
Nay. murray so that is just a simple dechlorinator and just an added bonus. Electrolytes are not needed if it’s just a healthy snake but spook away!!!!!! K
New England Reptile cheers hun x I would ask if uv got any tips for male bp that don’t wanna eat , but iv heard them all already , he’s just being a pain in the ass like most males lol 😝 x
What about blue tongue skinks, cause some say the need uvb and others say it’s an absolute must?
M.J Younes it is an added bonus but they can be fine without. K
Hi Kevins, its been 3yrs since you put out this video, just curious if your still using this thermostat or have moved on to something else? Thanks For Your Time: Shawn
what is your best advise for switching a snake from mice to rats. I've tried everything and one of them will stop eating for a week or two if I even offer her a rat.
dustinpearson1981 did video on this
I thought you may have unfortunately I went back through all of the videos on the channel and couldn't find a title that fit. I saw one than briefly talked about putting a rat in mouse shavings but that was the only one.
I have thermostats on my snake's heat sources, I still check the temps with a temp gun at least once a week to make sure they are still working and at the right temp. Not sure if it's my shitty thermostat but I have to adjust it when the temps outside change drastically. I'd never forgive myself if I cooked my snake I love him so much. I gotta try a zoomed one and see if those do their job without needing to readjust. I know Kevin would never promote junk so I'm sure it's a lot better than what i'm using.
Please help! I have that zoo med 600 for a heat mat for Bio Active setup in a 40 gallon low exo terra large. (Ball python) With dirt I am finding it difficult to get the heat to be at proper temp in actually hot hide burrow (bark hide) end. I am afraid to go higher, 90-91 on thermostat and it is not cutting it!
What is the highest temp would you recommend to set that zoo med 600 in 1 1/2 thickest 2 inches of dirt substrate would be a safe setting?
FYI I use a dimmer to control ceramic 60 watt bulb set at 89 night 86. Which helps the hide a bit, I don't want to over heat (like the tanks behind you in videos)
I can't find or it is me a actual temp! Thanks for the videos👍 and awesome animals
Thank you so much, huge fan since back in the day. Stay safe u all! Helena
Scott Williamson go higher on thermostat to get your temps. I’ve raised to over 100 on setting time get right temps in area. That’s a lot of mass to heat.
New England Reptile Thank you for info and taking the time to answer, much appreciated! 🐍👍😎
okay I am asking you to see this guy Stinnett Sticks on youtube just go to near the end and look at his carving of a King Cobra it is so good you will think you are looking at the real thing
🔥🔥awesome
would that happen to pythons also?
How much calcium with D3 and multivitamins should I be giving to my year old savannah monitor I have only been giving him calcium with D3 every couple of feedings but I have now purchased all these things including a uvb 10.5 I don't want to overdo it so if anyone could help it would be much appreciated
feller guy twice a week until it eats whole food items.
Much appreciated didn't think anyone would get back to me thanks n will do
I definitely have noticed that you soak your animals, since you often pull them out of tubs of water to show them. Do all species benefit from this? I have a juvenile jungle carpet, and was wondering if the occasional soak would be a good practice.
Calvin Won yes I really think so! K
New England Reptile Cool. I’ll add that to my routine. Thanks!
You must watch the Tiger king people u will know....
do you need uvb for ball pythons?
Cam Dollar no! K
nice:)
Do snakes need a ubv or not?
parsa samiee generally. O but diamond and Boelens pythons like it! K
New England Reptile thanks a lot
Jeremy is a beautiful man
