In these terrible times in the world and especially what’s going to happen in 2025 in our nation, I find watching your videos, peaceful and a place out of time. Where all that’s happening and we know there’s a lot of hard work but all that’s happening in your videos is love and care and that’s what we all need right now we don’t need to hear anymore news. Thank you for offering me this outlet.❤
Wait who's laying in the grass while you clean out the pond 😂😂 Editing to add that I would love you guys to come out with Jellybean merch that says I'm feeling Stabby today 😂
It's such an optical illusion how deep and huge Big Mac and Bella's crib really is. When water is in it you can't really see how ENORMOUS this pond really is. 😲 It's GINORMOUS!!
The Emu Cookie Monster Eating the Kale just had me laughing so hard. All that Kale was just confetti and Emu got like two bites. Love Bella and Big Mac Gators they are just danger water puppies. Their personalities are just so incredible, unique and sweet and spicy and everything Gator. Blessings!!
I swear Chris cleaning the ponds is like a scary movie when he slowly walks across the slippery surface....and then gets in the murky water next to an 11 foot gator..... I hold my breath every single time... So glad Chris knows what he's doing and he doesn't take liberties in such a precarious situation. Because of this channel, I've been able to educate others about alligators and crocs, so THANK YOU! Trying to get people to see they are more than mindless eating machines is hard. It's ingrained in too many people, and some people got an extra dose of ignorance that doesn't allow them to see any different. Such a shame because they are such incredible animals. Thank you for educating me!
I love how you balance educating about how they do not make good pets whilst showing their cute side. Big Mac using the pump pipe as a head pillow, and not moving at all makes him come across as a teen cosied up on the couch. All your reptiles and animals have distinct personalities that so comes across on all your vlogs

Chris has talked about it in other videos. It does overflow some all night. It gives the grass some water and the roots of plants/trees around the enclosure.⛲
Had to laugh even though its not a laughing matter - i dont have my stick, so stop trying to kill me! Very different dynamic when Julie is not with Petunia and Daisy during the feeding time. Great video guys.
Chris will you guys be starting a garden in the spring? Will save a lot of money on veggies? I can see Julie accidentally started Julie's own pumpkin patch!!! 😂 The key is to plant a few sunflowers because they draw bee's and bees will turn your garden fast!!!!! ❤️🧡❤️ Bless you & Gabby and ALL you do! As if y'all would have time for a garden....
Thank you for the new vlog awesome as always love seeing all the animals they look so happy and look so good hope you and Gabby are well have a nice night guys Thank you again
Just shows how tolerant Big Mac is just sitting there in a little pool of water whilst ur cleaning up and he looks like he doesn’t care he actually looks like he’s enjoying the company I can’t believe gabs videos with coco climbing up the cage and hanging with there teeth they look good little climbers considering they are underground and tunnel diggers I just love watching the relationship you have with all the different animals 👌
Chris, just want to say how much I appreciate how hard you and Gabby work to keep the sanctuary running while taking time to make videos and educate. The animals are very fortunate to have ended up in your care. I’ve seen Clover and Ocala but haven’t seen Bam. Is she just hiding out? All of the animals are just so precious. Have a fantastic Sunday. Hugs from Tennessee.
Was that Gabby laying on the ground while you cleaned the gator pond!? 😂 if so, the fact that y’all feel safe enough to just chill on the ground with Aligators so close is incredible! I’d be sh*tting my pants 😂😂 (btw i am not saying gabby is lazy or doesn’t do any work. Ik u both do so much equally for all of your animals!!)
Good Evening Chris and Gabby! Thank You so much for posting this tonight! I'm curious about a couple of things when y'all run the water into the ponds to keep them at a warmer temperature how does that effect your pump for the well? Also, how do the ponds not overflow? We have well water too and my husband always cautions me not to leave the hose running too long as it will burn up the pump. I've been meaning to ask y'all about this for awhile now but I didn't want it to get lost in the comments lol. 😆
I have snakes and I love them but they are a lot of work and money. They are not an easy pet if you give them a proper environment. Before acquiring any animal you should consider all aspects of keeping and caring for them.
@Gator_Chris, have you ever explained the background of how you got each of the parrots before? If so, I may not have seen that. I'm sorry. Was just curious if they were just all owner surrenders or what. I think I also missed who the odd ball was from the prairie dogs? I just know you said 3 of them are related and the last had to be slowly introduced.
QUESTIONS: How are Bella and Big Mac so calm around you even when you are in the water with them? Is it because they are used to you and don't see you as a threat? Lots of love from India ❤
I also want to state.... I have 12 parrots for the last 20 yrs or so. As much as I love them, I, 100% wish they were not in my care. they are little children that require so much. they are my responsibility so they will always stay but I highly recommend people do not get parrots as pets. also... Your yellow cockatiel is called a Lutino morph.
Whenever anyone says “it’s so cute, I want one” I respond politely about why it’s a bad idea. Disney has a lot to answer for in romanticizing and, frankly, falsifying human relationships with other species, as well as anthropomorphizing animals. In reality we’ve always done far more harm than good. I suggest that people who want a pet adopt dogs and cats but do a lot of research first about a breed or mix of breeds, including on how to integrate children with new domestic pets. Chimps aren’t the only animal that can rip up your face, or, as recently happened in California, get off lead and leave one person dead and the other in the ICU with multiple surgeries in his future. And the dogs, a powerful breed requiring a strong knowledgeable trainer/handler, were put down.

Where all that’s happening and we know there’s a lot of hard work but all that’s happening in your videos is love and care and that’s what we all need right now we don’t need to hear anymore news.

Merry Christmas to Gabby, Chris and all the denizens of Bellowing Acres!
And to you!
Wait who's laying in the grass while you clean out the pond 😂😂 Editing to add that I would love you guys to come out with Jellybean merch that says I'm feeling Stabby today 😂
I’d buy a shirt!
Definitely a feeling stabby shirt!
It's such an optical illusion how deep and huge Big Mac and Bella's crib really is. When water is in it you can't really see how ENORMOUS this pond really is. 😲 It's GINORMOUS!!
Huge!
The Emu Cookie Monster Eating the Kale just had me laughing so hard. All that Kale was just confetti and Emu got like two bites. Love Bella and Big Mac Gators they are just danger water puppies. Their personalities are just so incredible, unique and sweet and spicy and everything Gator. Blessings!!

The Alligator ponds look so cool with the fresh water at night 😊
I think so too
Is that Gabby chilling in the grass by Big Mac and Bellas pond? 😅 best thing ever!!
Yep 😂 passed out

The pool looks huge without water, you don't see the proper size when it's full. Thanks for the videos. Just love Poppy. ❤
It’s huge!
Completely surprised Dino is so chilled with you and that he isn't trying to eat you after all he has been through since he has come to the sanctuary.
He’s doing great!
Chris has talked about it in other videos. It does overflow some all night. It gives the grass some water and the roots of plants/trees around the enclosure.⛲
Watching Ju Leeee go to town on her pumpkin made me smile. Great close up of her chompers 💋💋💋👍👍👍
😂
Little Dude is an unbelievable rascal ☺️
I love seeing the gators in their ponds at night! 🐊
Me too
Shippo has gotten braver! The foxes are HILARIOUS when it comes to certain items. They are so funny!
😂
Hazel is my favorite cause of how crazy she is!
Had to laugh even though its not a laughing matter - i dont have my stick, so stop trying to kill me! Very different dynamic when Julie is not with Petunia and Daisy during the feeding time. Great video guys.
😂
Happy holidays to you n gabby . Chris .
Liccle Akila's Dad ,Sultan at Gatorland,likes the feel of the water going down his pond's plug on his tum-tum ! Cute.👍🏼🇬🇧❤️❤️❤️🐊🐊🐊

We have a huge pump built for it so we’re good!
Thank you and how do the ponds not overflow while the water is trickling in them through the night?
Merry Christmas Gabby Chris...
I have snakes and I love them but they are a lot of work and money. They are not an easy pet if you give them a proper environment. Before acquiring any animal you should consider all aspects of keeping and caring for them.
preach it. 100%!!!
Could you show quills more often? They are really cute and I had nearly forgotten about them, cause i barley see them
poppy the lap prairie dog just wants to be pet im sobbibg
😂
The pigs are extremely cute! What do they feel like being petted? They are actually very smart animals
In another video I think Chris said only Petunia or Julie like being pet. Daisy only tolerates it for a short amount of time😅
I meant the little pigs.
@@kelseywilliams9616 They are slowly starting to tolerate it I guess from the videos I've seen.
Like petting a broom 😂
The little pigs are adorable regardless and thanks!
Hey, do you plan on having Cows on your property? I think they’re awesome and would love to see them everyday in your videos!
Maybe one day!
@Gator_Chris, have you ever explained the background of how you got each of the parrots before? If so, I may not have seen that. I'm sorry. Was just curious if they were just all owner surrenders or what.
I think I also missed who the odd ball was from the prairie dogs? I just know you said 3 of them are related and the last had to be slowly introduced.
Daisy Pig 🩷🐷
she is just the bestest!
She’s the best little piggy
Good morning from the UK Chris Gabby and all your special friends at the sanctuary.
Could I ask please how sharp are prairie dogs teeth
Sharp and strong
Hey Chris, how do the ponds not overflow while the water is trickling in them through the night?
Please visit the finches, however briefly. Their enclosure has a delicate spirit.
❤❤❤
Do you think in the future any of your gators will be trained enough to swim with, with visitors like Casper? If so which one?
That’s the plan!
Azula sounds like a video game.
😂
QUESTIONS: How are Bella and Big Mac so calm around you even when you are in the water with them? Is it because they are used to you and don't see you as a threat? Lots of love from India ❤
Yes that’s a huge part of it, and training
I would never get prairie dog, I know I cant properly care for them - Im curious what their tunnels look like
I also want to state.... I have 12 parrots for the last 20 yrs or so. As much as I love them, I, 100% wish they were not in my care. they are little children that require so much. they are my responsibility so they will always stay but I highly recommend people do not get parrots as pets.
also... Your yellow cockatiel is called a Lutino morph.
Absolutely! And thank you!
@ 3:45 I want to hop in the water with the gators
What’s the story behind Jellybean?
hi
First!!
When I see you cleaning the gator pools I get so nervous you will slip on the mold and right into Big Macs big teeth (not really :)

Everybody wants their Kalusa.. Calusa.. whatever..
