@Alex's awesome animals OK, you were making me feel really old :-) check out the other books by that author written about the same time. They are all great.
Great list. I love the mandarin rat snake. Almost got one from the pet store near me last spring. So gorgeous, it almost looks like eyes all down their backs.
@@WickensWickedReptiles hey man, you’ve always been a big help with teaching me how to take care of my reptiles. And because of you I have my own little collection. Thank you for always being informative!
My friends trying to convince me that turtles are amphibians. She refuses to believe that they are reptiles so I want proof from the reptile king himself
Just tell her about the life cycle. I don’t think turtles start as tadpoles. lol. She probably consider turtles like salamanders. Salamanders seem like water lizards and and I bet she thinks turtles are water tortoises.
I was surprised jeweled lacertas weren’t on this list! I breed jewlies and they are an amazing pet reptile. So so underrated and misunderstood. People think they are so skittish and can’t be tamed but my jeweled lacertas are like colorful bearded dragons.
I would love to hear your input on Vietnamese blue beauties. I have one and there is so little information online about them. Also my wife got me a WWR shirt for Father's day and I love it
I thought it was kinda funny how he was like "there has been documents have a Chauha and a crested gecko do the *finger moving together* ya know I died laughing not sure why maybe because of how awkward he was explaining it without saying it
Bamboo rat snakes! Similar to mandarin rat snakes, I see them referred to as difficult to keep- because they don't need additional heat beyond room temperature. Never been able to wrap my head around how that makes them *more* difficult instead of less. They also stay smaller, and in my opinion are even more beautiful (specifically the Thai variety, which is what I have.) They've got a bit more sass and speed, but not unmanageable in my experience. They're hard to find, but not expensive when you do find them.
Check you out with the silver play button on the wall. Well-placed my sage! You are really impressively consistently interesting with the content. So great!
Hell yeah we need a part 2! From the moment I saw a mandarin rat snake on my first reptile expo, I fell in love with them. Would love to keep one in the future
Also i would had to the list Central American Banded Geckos ( Mitratus Gecko) i have one called Mooni and she is REALLY cute i've had her for 3 months now and it's been awsome !
I’ve been out of snake keeping for about a decade now, life got a little crazy and I got out for a bit. But now that things have settled I’ve been going down all these rabbit holes trying to find the perfect species. Seeing you mention the Angolan Python had me HOOKED immediately. Starting my research and it’s looking like that’s going to be my new addition!! Thank you for giving them some attention, they are gorgeous and seem to be a great species to work with and enjoy. ❤ Thanks so much Adam!
I am experienced with snakes. The snake list was very interesting and I would consider adding any one of these snakes to my snake family. Fantastic choices and video.
@@DTAever yeah so for mine I don’t use any heat at all. No lamps, heat mats or anything. Just natural room temps of 72-74 degrees. My bedroom is too warm right now, so I keep him in my living room and it usually stays around 74 but he doesn’t eat every week and the breeder I bought him from told me to try to cool it down a tad bit more
Honestly I love your beginner videos. I also am a big fan of underrated pets. It brings reptiles I have never heard, onto my radar. Which is exciting to think about that first reptile and it being super cool
I have a northwestern alligator lizard I found under a rock frozen and I took it in as my first pet. I have had it for a few months now and its really sweet. It doesn't bite or try to threaten me when I touch it or pick it up and she will cuddle up again your hand. She will also sometimes rub her head on your hand to get an itch or to help herself shed.
This is a really great video idea for someone like me who's been watching reptile TH-cam and wants to get something cool and doesn't want to have a huge collection
It may not be as popular, but as a fellow Canuck I’d love to learn more about other cold-blooded Canadian creatures like the fellow you featured in this video - especially those in the hobby. It’s gotta be a rough climate for them!
Another slice of fried gold Adam 👍🏾! Love, love your videos because I always learn something new. You are, THE CANADIAN G.O.A.T! Thanks for your dedication and hard work 🇺🇸🇨🇦.
I LOVE my Chahoua!! She is so sweet and waits at her enclosure door to come out. I think all the new caledonia geckos are super easy to keep and are fun to interact with! I have Leachie, chahoua. Gargoyle and crested.
@@WickensWickedReptiles lol. As I got this notification I’m packing my cave geckos up for a beach road trip. I don’t like leaving them home alone and one is wild caught, I think.
You could add nerodia snake species in the next beginner reptiles you have never heard of! Most of Nerodia species have same type of setup u would see with corn snakes etc. because they do not live in the water, they only hunt in water. And there are plenty of nerodia species to choose from! Only con to them is that they can be harder to find than some other snakes.
I'd love to see you make an updated care guide on Chinese Cave geckos! There isn't much content on them... it would also be cool to see an enclosure tutorial for them!!
My first reptile ever was an Everglades ratsnake. Still have him to this day. I think they make fine beginners. I'd love a rubber boa but I can't find them anywhere.
man i live in the city the outsiders takes place and you cannot get away from the "stay gold ponyboy, stay gold" but its so much cooler when other ppl bring it up
Those Angolan pythons are super cool, they look like a cross between a ball python and a Burmese python. I might have to try to find one when I can finally start keeping reptiles.
I think russian rat snakes can also go into this list. I've yet to get one myself, but from what I've read they are incredibly hardy snakes that can handle very wide range of temperatures and humidity, about the same size as a corn snake so they don't need a giant enclosure, and have a very chill and mellow personality (generally speaking). The only negatives are brumation may be needed to live longer ( which can be a blessing since you don't need to spend money on feeders during this time), and that their colors aren't as striking and vibrant as some other exotic snakes. I love how they look personally.
Hey man, I’m fourteen and started off with a couple of hognoses and an African house snake three years ago. I recently stepped up to a mandarin, a rocky start but he’s eating great and has calmed down a lot.He is like a shoelace compared to the one in the expo. Love your videos
i don't know why some people say, high humidity need means an animals is not suited for a beginner. if you put a little effort in it and not just build your enclosure the one day and put your animal in the next day, it's simple to figure out, how to keep the humidity at an high(er) level. all you need is a little patience to wait to buy your animal until the settings of your terrarium are right. Nice Video, maybe in part 2 more not-snakes :D but i have to say: the mandarin rat snake is lit.
Definitely need a part 2!
for sure will make it then :)
for the ring neck snake!
For the leachies!!
@@WickensWickedReptiles viper geckos are pretty easy
Ye pt 2 will be a win
I loved the Outsiders reference. “Stay golden Ponyboy, stay golden.”
so glad someone got it
@@WickensWickedReptiles I remember reading those books. They were great. The outsiders, rumble fish etc.
@Alex's awesome animals OK, you were making me feel really old :-) check out the other books by that author written about the same time. They are all great.
I was just about to comment about it
@Alex's awesome animals same, I readit in school and OMG, it so good I cant
Chahouas are bloody brilliant, hes my first and only reptile, lol and i LOVE him
I love me a chewie
@@WickensWickedReptiles also you definatly get that "OMG SUCH A COOL ANIMAL" when any other reptile keeper comes over 😂
Great list. I love the mandarin rat snake. Almost got one from the pet store near me last spring. So gorgeous, it almost looks like eyes all down their backs.
they are amazing! I still regret not buying the one you see in the video
I'd say most African house snakes are pretty underrated beginner reptiles
totally agree!
My biggest issue has just been finding one that’s responsibly captive-bred, but I was one so bad!
Definitely an amazing species, hopefully they can be bred to be slightly bigger and they would be nearly perfect imo
@@morelle12 They do seem to be bred very easily in captivity though I think the main reason you don't see many is because they aren't very popular
African house snakes are mostly CB I think; they're harder to *not* breed. They breed easier than humans.
Been looking forward to this! Can’t wait! And this intro is bad ass!
I hope you enjoy!!!
@@WickensWickedReptiles hey man, you’ve always been a big help with teaching me how to take care of my reptiles. And because of you I have my own little collection. Thank you for always being informative!
That Rubber boa looks like an earth worm to me....very wild stuff! And damn...I really want to get one of those cave geckos one day.
they are so weird to hold too, they feel so different
i get so excited every time you upload!!! would you ever think about doing a video over different jobs you can have working with reptiles?
Great idea!!
My friends trying to convince me that turtles are amphibians. She refuses to believe that they are reptiles so I want proof from the reptile king himself
hahahah they are for sure reptiles
I’ve never heard of a shelled amphibian
@@WickensWickedReptiles hey bro. What is your favourite amphibian btw
Just tell her about the life cycle. I don’t think turtles start as tadpoles. lol. She probably consider turtles like salamanders. Salamanders seem like water lizards and and I bet she thinks turtles are water tortoises.
lol
S.E. Hinton's staying power continues to astonish.
right!?
Warning: Do not try to bounce rubber boas.
fact!
Hahaha
Du du du max Verstappen
I’m so glad you made that reference to the outsiders
DO IT FOR JOHNNY!
I was surprised jeweled lacertas weren’t on this list! I breed jewlies and they are an amazing pet reptile. So so underrated and misunderstood. People think they are so skittish and can’t be tamed but my jeweled lacertas are like colorful bearded dragons.
Do you have any hatchlings available?
@@PrototypeGaming89 yep! Contact me on Instagram @kkcreatures for details
Thanks for sharing!!
Your description of cave geckos is the best!
I love those emo bois
Part 2 would be great. I have learned so much from your videos.
thanks so much for watching!
I would love to hear your input on Vietnamese blue beauties. I have one and there is so little information online about them. Also my wife got me a WWR shirt for Father's day and I love it
theya re great, I have included them in videos before like the big colubrids video, so cool your wife got you a shirt. what a keeper!
Part 2 alright and even part 3 if you can. Good stuff man.
working on Part 9 now, it'll be more prolific than the Fast & Furious franchise haha
That playlist button looks good back there
I am so happy to have it for real!
@@WickensWickedReptiles enjoy every accomplishment 🙌🏻
I absolutely love your videos not only do you have a TON of information but you always make me laugh, always look forward to a new video from you
Yes part 2! Never thought about these! Definetly adding to my list of research!
awesome!
I absolutely love to watch you, you have taught me so much!
Thank you so much Chantelle!!

Chauhoa gecko is on my list of reptiles to own one day.
for sure!
Angolan pythons feel like a Leopard gecko with way closer together scales LOL
sounds about right
Yes please to a part 2 of this video - I would actually love a whole series 🤩🤩🤩
Rubber boas were my favorite when I was a kid! So great to see them on this list!
Mine too!

Hey Diamond ! Good to see you , get that ear buddy !
"Imma get it dawg" - Diamond
This was great! I love to see the more rare kept animals that are still something I could have! Definitely need a part 2!
Is it even a video with Diamond if he doesn't try and go for an ear nibble? XD

Yes!
Somebody needs to make a MCR cover using cave geckos animated lol
totally agree!
I am so glad you talked about Chahoua! They are my absolute favorites! I love them and wish I could have one.
Hey my Canada brother, we for sure need a part two of this video please!!!! Keep up the awesome work you do !!!

alright!

The Chapelle Show clip😆 Part 2 please!!! I'm a new reptile mom and love the info!!
"Y'all got anymore of them reptile vids"
The Hollywood undead comment was golden. Motionless in white would have done well too 😂😂
For sure
Mandarin rat snake.. I'm in! What beautiful colors. Looking 4ward to part 2..
nice!
Def agree with the Chinese Cave Geckos. Theyre a visual punch with laid-back care.
for sure
Yes i think it would be awesome to do a part 2
coming soon!
The outsiders! Nice reference

@@WickensWickedReptiles Indeed. Let me know if you find a reliable source for some.

One of your best videos. Angolan pythons are officially on my radar!
The outsiders reference is great i remember he says that to him before he died
DO IT FOR JOHNNY!
I think russian rat snakes can also go into this list. I've yet to get one myself, but from what I've read they are incredibly hardy snakes that can handle very wide range of temperatures and humidity, about the same size as a corn snake so they don't need a giant enclosure, and have a very chill and mellow personality (generally speaking). The only negatives are brumation may be needed to live longer ( which can be a blessing since you don't need to spend money on feeders during this time), and that their colors aren't as striking and vibrant as some other exotic snakes. I love how they look personally.
Hey man, I’m fourteen and started off with a couple of hognoses and an African house snake three years ago. I recently stepped up to a mandarin, a rocky start but he’s eating great and has calmed down a lot.He is like a shoelace compared to the one in the expo.
Love your videos
wicked!!
Definetly part 2! Maybe Make two videos in half. Snakes and lizards. I'm all for snakes. Not so much lizards.
great idea!
