I freaking love Gabby!!! "there he is...I wonder if he sees the little cricket?" then she turns the camera to the emu and whispers "why are you here?". 🤣🥰🤣
Haha...I loved that, too. Gabby's great!
I love Tadpole's new enclosure, it is lovely and so thoughtful for his issues of this missing tail. That 300 gallon tub is so pretty with all the plants and I love the log separate levels to aid his mobility. You both are so thoughtful and kind even to the shiner fish. I am so excited to see him grow and develop his relationship with Chris and Gabby. Welcome Tadpole to the most fab existence in captivity ever. You hit the jackpot. We all did too, getting to see and be a part of this incredible sanctuary.
Tadpole is freaking adorable!🥰
Hello tadpole!
Welcome to the family!!!! You already have thousands of fans :)
Congratulations guys on the continuing success on your sanctuary.
Your care is admirable 🥰
TadPole 🐊❤ His lilttle pond is so awesome its pefect for him !!!!
"You may have been expecting a long tale about how this happened.... but there is no tail behind this alligator.
You guys always do the best job on the enclosures, it's so perfect for him! 💚🐊
Tadpole is so cute. I love him already!
So excited to see his journey! I love the name choice as well 🐊
Florida is a great wildlife adventure ❤
Also very hot and warm. Lol
@syedali5699 yes we have been many times 💜
You guys are very kind and professional.
Tadpole is so very cute 🥰
Tadpole is so stinking cute! Looking forward to watching them grow into a big old frog-butt!
Love the new little gator he is such a cutie pie. Thank you for sharing
Lucky he was rescued by you great people. He has a wonderful little pond you created for him.🥰
Hey Tadpole...excellent little buddy.
Thanks for all the teaching you do! Have learned so much!
I am convinced all emus love to steal the show. Cute little gator btw.
What a great new home for this adorable baby gator he’s in the best of hands 😊
Thanks !!
The videos that y'all post are so informative 😊
Tadpole is the cutest name ever!!!!
Thanks for answering the question I asked, Chris.
The baby gator is cute!!😊 Glad that you and Gabby can take care of him!!💚 The land sure is wonderful for your all's Sanctuary. I remember when you were still in the other house and Gabby was driving her car loaded down with cages for the birds. It was a rainy mess. Come a long way!!
Wonderful habitat that you guys created for him, in that tank. I never thought about the strain on his legs if he's on the soil out of the water, without the additional support of his tail.
Thanks for the information and providing a safe happy environment for the little fellow.
Idk where you’re sourcing your crickets, but jsyk, Josh’s Frogs is a great place to source affordable/safe crickets and feeder roaches for your reptiles! I know pet store crickets often carry parasites.
My apologies if you already knew that. Just thought I’d throw it out there.
I love the enclosure set up. He’s gonna be so happy there.
Speaking of reptiles I’d love a reptile room update video. We haven’t seen TickTok in a while.
That little gator is SO cute. I want him/her
Tadpole...what a cute little fella/gal... I have been watching your other channel, Gator Chris, and have been following Dino and Big Mac's journey. I'm hoping for the best for them. At least they have a fighting chance in your care.
I love baby tadpole already❤ But also I understand why you don't like doing live feedings but your emus would also enjoy a little pool with some shiners in it. I know this because I am a big fan of Ima Survivor Sanctuary and the got a small kiddie pool and a few shiners and their ostriches loved it. Also their son as well as their nephew each have an emu and the both of them tried that experiment too and the emus had a ball getting in the pool to not only cool down but to snag a couple small fish too.
I love the ISS (ImaSurvivor Sanctuary)… LHL (Longhorn Lester) n JnL properties so much as they r so beautiful it’s just a shame that ISS & LHL have been hit hard recently with the flood n all of the storms they have been having n I really hope that Lester n Jamie’s (from- “STB’s- Suits To Boots”) plus the rest of the Morrow families luck changes really soon so that they can get the land n homes 100% completed n can get bac to some normality again xxxxx
Awesome rescue guys, Baby Tadpole is a strong animal I love the science facts about this, Yeah baby Alligators eat frogs bugs and small fish in the Wild NOT meat from the grocery store I wondered the same about that topic if that's what causes the bone disease, I remember seeing pork that had puss in it low quality stuff
Oh, little Tadpole is soooo cute. It will be awsome to watch hin growvin your future videos. I love, how you give those special needs gators an awsome new home with the best care (even if they are not so thankfull and try to bite you)
Great information. Thank you for educating.
Hi from Bournemouth Uk 🇬🇧
What a freaking Gator Penthouse you've made for Tadpole! Man.... wouldn't it be funny to hear all the gossip in the Gatorville?!😅 ( you have to use Beavis and Butt head's voices)
Friend #1Hey Ralph!! ! Did you hear about Chuckie? ( that was Tadpole's name before he came to Gator Heaven)..He got his tail bit off by Butch( the gator bully) and the Angels from Gator Heaven flew down and picked him up and flew him to Gator Heaven! Man you should have seen 'em. This one Angel was like 100 feet tall!! That was the man Angel. The Lady Angel was so pretty and get claws were painted bright red! I wonder why? Maybe she dangles them in the water to catch her food. They do kinda look like lil red worms...
#2: "Dude!! That's awesome! Do ya think if we can get Butch to bite our tails off they'd come get us? It's all over the Hood how AWESOME Gator fHeaven is. You get your own house....
Friend #1: I heard the angels make the water disappear as soon as it starts to look green and awesome, it goes down this hole at the bottom and fill it back up with the clear stuff again.
Friebd # 2: Who cares what color the water is!!. They bring you room service EVERY DAY!! Sometimes that Big Angel comes around wuthering ask kindsof goodies! He brings this little skinny tree and sticks it in your face. He says a word..AND THEN YOU GET MORE FREE FOOD!!! IT'S AWESOME!!! I'm talkin' bout the Primo grub man!! Chickens ALREADY PLUCKED!! No feathers get stuck in your teeth you don't even have to catch'em! It's so rad!!
Friend #1: I don't know man.. Butch would probably wanna go too but he's too healthy! They won't take him. Ya gotta be real fucked up like Fred and Barney! I''ll give up a front leg...I don't know if i wanna lose my tail! It's so cool looking and i can already swim SO FAST!! I'm out-swim lotsa bullies and those jerks in the floaty thingv with that loud water spinner thing in back! They're bad dudes. They got Janet's dad and now he's a purse! I don't wanna be a purse! I wanna go to Gator Heaven..HEYY!!!! BUUUUTCH!!! COME'ERE BRO!!❤
And Scene 😚
People forget that brains, eyeballs, gut content, etc etc are essential for proper nutrients in a reptile.
Thanks for answering many questions!! I was wondering how old such a little one could be 😊 His new enclosure looks awesome, the tub with all the plants and a log to sit on is perfect for him. You guys know exactly what these animals need.
Thank you for the information. Your vlogs are always entertaining and educational. I look forward to both channels.
🎉🤣😂🤣😅 I loved how you were trying to be optimistic about Tadpol's tail! Yeah.. Gabby said it, I thought it! He's without a doubt, one of the cutest lil Gators I've ever seen....she's /he's a lucky lil gator to have landed in the Greatest Rescue in Earth. Did Chandler see it? I figured since they are kindred spirits and all, they should meet. Being a member of the "Nub Club" is very prestigious!😅...I love your Name Game Gabby. You come up with some DOOSIES! Yes Ma'am. Is your piggy's name spelled "Amy Swinehause "?( well.. that's the German version) or Swinhouse? Either or... it's spectacular!❤.
hes so cute!
Awesome he find his way to your rescue place 😃
I am so jealous right now. I'd love some of that hyacinth for my container garden, but nooooo, a bunch of idiots had to drop it into the waterways. All the box stores can sell all sorts of category 1s for ground gardens, but hyacinth? Nah, go wade in the swamp and hope you don't get eaten for some. 🙄
Tadopole's super cute. Can't wait to watch him grow!
Experimenting with prosthetics for him a couple years down the road could be very interesting!
Maybe people were feeding him because they felt sorry for him due to the loss of his tail? Maybe that’s how he became a “nuisance?” I think MBD comes from not consuming the entire animal completely raw, never frozen, and never cooked. Freezing and cooking denatures proteins and enzymes, and not getting organs and bones makes formation of their organs and bone harder. A good study in this phenomenon is called, “Pottenger’s Cats Experiment.” You can see what looks an awful lot like MBD in the cats in Dr. Pottenger’s experiments.
It might be just your theory but you have a lifetime of experience with reptiles, I would say its an educated theory.
Commenting for the algorithm.
So freakin cute! I love baby gators!❤
Great video you guys ! 👍
Love learning about the gators!
Thx! 😀
Getting a better look at Tadpole’s nubby butt, your right Chris, it does look like an old injury. On another video ya’ll posted, it had appeared to be a birth deformity. Anyways, thx for showing us his new/ safe habitat! And his age suitable diet, it was interesting to learn about it! You guys are doing amazing things for these beautiful creatures!
Here in Australia, we often see our native magpie chicks with metabolic bone disease because humans feed the magpie parents things like raw red meats (mince) when the birds come to their back gardens -- which the parents will regurgitate to feed their babies, and it isn't good for them. Then, the babies end up in the vets and have to be put to sleep... I think your theory is very sound!
He’s so cool! He’s gonna be hard to catch when he gets real big since you won’t be able to grab onto the tail. 😅
Wow 👍
Wish we have reptile carers like u guys here in Myanmar. Crocodiles here are getting hunted even tho it's banned.
Let's do a fundraising for his prosthetic tail once he reaches full adult growth🐊
Interesting find. Have y’all ever worked with gharials before? I find them fascinating and haven’t found much about them online. Would like to know more about gharials (and caiman too, for that matter).
I like to garden in my back yard. Suddenly a gator appeared. First it would just look at me from the water. Then one day it felt comfortable and came out to nap. Did that for a few days. I decided to take a break from gardening. Is that a bad sign that it’s coming out? Love your channel! Thank you for the education you provide.
I’m a partial ampute of my foot and I re grow bone at the stump that has to be shaved down every now and then
Chris you need to try barly straw to help control the algae growth in your gators ponds
We did add some barely straw liquid
How about a 3d printed tail for this alligator? Could probably design one with multiple interlocking parts etc to make it give same motion as normal. This would be cheap and re-printable to different sizes
Could even just add another inter locking part each time it grows slowly making a tail grow basically
Tad Pole is such a great name!!!😊. Better than pickle stub which is a nickname for someone I know. 😂
Very good video. Informative and entertaining. BTW...emu will be everywhere. They are your shadows. Shadows only disappear in the dark.
Would be interesting to see if you can keep feeding lil buddy a somewhat more natural diet and maybe in a couple years we can see if he has less MBD? MAybe not the most scientific with a sample size of 1 but would be interesting to see if a more natural diet when they're small has a positive impact of MBD in small captive raised gators.
Rescue another dog please 😊 not a command but I’d love to see dogs with your guys awesome care, clover is so awesome
agreed Clover is AMAZING!!!! but i think between Clover and the little doggie they have their hands full, I too love doggies but I'd vote for more gators!
Genuine question. With him been so young would his body not develop differently and his legs become strong enough to support his own weight and give him less of risk of arthritis or would it be like say someone who been lifting heavy weight all they life and its just what happens a sad fact of life realy
I will talk to m y sister, she works as a drone engineer for Boeing and loves to play with 3D printing. She might be able to print something for him when he's bigger.
Would you be able to pry his jaws open if he bit you, and is he strong enough to make you lose an entire finger if it was bit?
Figure with a tail he'd be a good 16 footer
hi
What will you do if an alligator grabs you while underwater?
Does it honk,yet?
Is he faster?
Wouldn't be a bad idea to set up a camera underwater to see how he/she can swim... how much struggling happening maybe catch if it's tries to catch fish and how successful he/she is.
How is Aries now???
Hey Chris...what enclosure will he be in??
He's in his own enclosure until he gets bigger. Right now he's too vulnerable to be with other gators.
I think human liver or I guess any liver grows back.
He needs to be with JAWLENE
Can't the gator just eat a little mouse 😮
It's a perfectly normal tail, above average I would say, even enourmours for some people! 😥 (Hope guys will understand that rather low quality reference)
Do you know full grown large crabs and lobsters like earth worms? As a snack now and then while in captivity. In their natural environment they would mostly never see an earth worm their entire life. Interesting.
Could Tadpole have a prosthetic tail?
Did you watch the video? Chris explained this in the beginning.
Do alligators ever scavenge?
Yes they will eat carrion
Did you guy's change your mind about answering questions because it was just a premiere❓🤔
What?
@@FloridasWildest I thought you were answering questions from the chat? Unless you were live and I missed it. Luckily he made it to your place otherwise he probably wouldn't be alive now. Thank you for saving him we need more people in this world like you two because it would be a better place to live.
hmmm.. i am not sure about this ... by a dog maby ok ... he lives 10 years ... but here .. why let him suffer so long ... its like a bird without wings ...
He's not suffering. Gators are extremely tough and pain tolerant.
@@meloneyparker i mean with suffering never able to swimm right the next 20-50 years ...
