So happy to know Silent Bob has been doing well and relaxed so much. He doesnt know it but he hit the jackpot for a forever home
Athena is the sweetest snake I've EVER SEEN. Look at her!😮❤ she really loves you.
Bob has come SOOOO far! So great to see all your progress!
Wow. That is amazing. So nice to see Silent Bob more comfortable and happy.
I love Bob!! What a great update! ❤
Sorry for the extra comment, but I forgot to say that Tim, you have increased by confidence as a handler and keeper. I recently got into the hobby last year and to be honest, no one has helped me like you. You show such care and how to show it for your animals that it has given me hope even with my feistiest of snakes. Now I handle without the fear of being bitten because it's not as scary to me. You have helped me understand these wonderful animals in ways I was not aware of before, and I thank you.
Always love to hear that, it's what we wanna do!
Love the update on Bob
Nice! I’ve been waiting for an update!
Oi m8 🤓7
Love some Bob update! Such a great example of how far these animals can come. Man his head is so similar to a dumerils at a glance at least color wise, that blushing. Not So much up close 😆 regardless, he's gorgeous and has come so far. Very cool to see
Great video Tim
Good video Tim
Hello silent Bob❤
🤣😅🤣😂Bob: "Oh Damn... here we go again!😡"...🤣😂😅
Thanks for the (not so silent) Silent Bob and he is definitely famous or is it infamous?!? 🤣
The wild type ball python you keep is stunning can you make a clip of her outside
Bob acts like my hognose: hissy, pissy, and tough until he's outside of his cage.
Tim.... did you name Bob from my idea or did someone else steal my idea??😂😂 Kidding... I'm not mad, just curious. I loved him from jump street!❤
Hi Tim. Great to see how far Bob has come. I have a question. Has he been handled by anyone else yet? If so, how did he do?
YAY BOBBY BABY!!!look at him!!! Awww he's so calm.. he loves you!... in a hateful kinda way😅😅 no kidding aside.. he's very pretty.. and so much better! Oh my goodness.. he's done a 180°. Good job! that'll do...Tim... that'll do. ( Farmer Authur Hoggett said that to "Babe" 1995)❤
❤ Bob! Did not realize how much he has grown. How much bigger is he now?
I haven't been measuring but he is putting on a little size :-)
I have a wild caught gopher snake. I've had them for 9 years. They still hiss at me every time I hold them. They have never tried bite though, even when they were posturing for it.
So beautiful 😍
hi
My burms been doin this sinse She was a baby and Shes only grown more forward .. shes lose in my bedrooom right now.. lol
I gotta say about 2 weeks ago i got my first burmese python and your videos have been a godsend as there isnt alot of info on keeping them on youtube. I have a question i fed her a small rat a week ago and she had a little urate but no poop. How long does it usually take them to poop and does warm water soaks help them poop?
Also second question is how much condensation is okay on the inside of an enclosure, I'm using zilla jungle mix for the bedding but was thinking maybe it makes it too humid. Also when she hisses it kinda whistles do you think she could have stuck shed in her nose maybe I just don't wanna hurt her . Thank you so much
Should take roughly a week for a bowel movement, maybe longer but if temps are good and she's hydrated it's typically not to worry. A lot of condensation can be bad, maybe offer a tad more ventilation if it's really dripping in there. As with most things it's in moderation, just little tweaks til ya get it right.
I wanted your advice, I've had this new corn for 7 months now, 2.5 years old, never handled previously before his time with me, he doesn't settle outside the tank, can be alright one minute, but freak out briefly the next.
He's started popping his cloaca lately, but I don't think he's musked yet, at least not on me.
He has some days worse than others, sometimes defensive and terrible with hands coming near him, other times just not that bad and we have a good session.
Never had this with any other snake, they're all docile and relaxed. Not sure if he's just never going to be 'a pet'?
I don't hesitate with him, not scared of being bitten or stiff when handling, but I'm not bonding with him, just wondering if some snakes are just rack material more than pet material. I'm considering handing him off to a breeder after he's been bred just to give him freedom from being handled, he just doesn't seem to like it at all.
Ahh, I have this discussion with friends sometimes. snakes will often have different personalities depending on the individual, then different species and families may have different traits among themselves too. I've found that colubrids, although they can be really calm and easy to handle, can often be really flighty more often than not. My opinion is that they don't have the same capacity for thought that a python does, for instance. Now I have friends that strongly disagree and they may be right, but put simply I think pythons-boas, larger snakes in general have more capacity to think through things than smaller colubrids which makes them a bit easier to bring around to a calm state whereas many smaller ones simply dont process the good experiences and develop trust the same way. It may be that you're doing everything right and he may just be resistant to trusting you. If it were me I wouldn't give up on it with the understanding that it could be a long road and that ya may never get him truly comfortable. I'm doing the same thing with a young milk snake right now, I'm seeing that there's some thought process going on with him but not nearly as much as there was when I was taming down my sri lankan python, for instance.
@@IntrepidExotics Thanks for your thoughts, yeah I'd considered as much in terms of differences in personality, and I do think you're right as regards him not letting go and trusting, but in terms of letting him wander I can't trust him either.
He's not due to be bred until next year, if at all, so we've got plenty of time to see if he comes around.
I'll do what's best for him in this situation, if that means letting him go to someone who'll offer him the environment he wants, that's what will happen. 👍
Silent Bob has figured out that you are not going to kill him. How is he around other humans?
He does the same, tolerates all of us bald monkeys equally, lol
Are there going to be much captive breeding of these in the future? I know i wanted a indian python long ago, but you couldnt get any so i got a burm which is ok but to be honest burms are too easy to keep,not coming out right not easy but i like a little more active and something thats not so calm and collected. Burms are like a lab in snake form, grew up with labs love them but soon as i left i got a chessie best dog ever. Looking for my 3rd chessie and a larger snake soon, maybe a retic or anaconda or even indian if they become more available.
I know I've heard of one person having a clutch of Sri Lankans not long ago, don't recall who though. Before that I think there was only like 20 in the US
Brian from Brian boas on RUclips is going to breed them 😊
Ah cool hope it works well.
Is he eating well now?
Eating like a champ :-)
