GREAT,great attitude "BANGERANG!",.....But start now and very much consider Family "long-term' involvement,.....We've had our "MONSTERS" beginning in 1947/1948,......We're in our "80th" year and the "ORIGINAL" gang,(25 in all) are still more than ALIVE and flourishing,as of now we have roughly 85 or so.Your grand/great-grand kids 'll luv ya' when your long,long into your eternal "dirt-nap".
PrinceWilliam TheFox most definitely! I research as much as I can before investing my life, and my families life, in a new animal. I'm fortunate to have a young son (9) that loves his tortoises as well. He watches +kampkenan religiously along with reading up on the species he loves. I often tell people that I'm raising my future grand children's tortoises! Thanks for the reply, id love to see your Monsters!
"RESEARCH"!!,...excellent.,...We have a 6"+" acre Oceanfront (heavily vegetated) property in the Keys.My Grandpop/Mom moved there in 1935.There were many INTRUSIONS(sic).We keep to ourselves.I've ONLY been 'turned-on' to YOU-TUBE for 3 or 4 years.,....'firstly' to see vids on rigging,etc.,for fishing.My Mom & Dad (both deceased) brought home a Sulcata tortoise to my Grandpop in 1946/47,(I WASN'T born 'till 1952).Things just went on from there."NOW" my Family (HUGE!!!!!) spends lots of time with the 80(++{they hide}++) torts.It's fun.,.....An awesome initial INVESTMENT by my Grandparents' "RESEARCH",......I'm just the benefactor,and in no way the progenitor.I'm "NO" expert;one Daughter is a DVM/Phd.Her twin sister is also an Md.,Phd.,.....I leave all the vids to the GREAT-ONES=Kamp Kenan/Sam Pascucci.,...They're my gurus/masters of the torts.I'll pop my head out every once in a while when I see a good/GREAT vid.,.......Pascucci/Kenan have made it an "ART",....(a little PS for 'ya.) Just try swimmin' out 400/500 yards chasing an ALDABRA.,.....They "CAN","DO","WILL",....SSSSWWWWIIIIMMMMM,....'specially in a warm(hot) salty,clear Ocean.
Absolutely love all the knowledge and info from you and your buddy Sam. Great guy , love watching y’all talk shop and seeing all the tortoises 🐢 Love from Ohio
This guy is awesome! He had my wife a friend and his kids over to see the animals, really great setup, really knowledgeable guy who love his torts.... and iguana's. He saved my baby Sulcata Blue, Blue would be dead right now if not for Sam! Sam... Write a book man! people need your knowledge.
This was a great video! I've always wondered if getting an Aldabra was something I could do. Lost of my questions answered here in this video. Thanks Kenan and Sam!!
Aldabra's are really cool. They look a lot more unique in their actual features than some other torti's. Their foot shape, head shape and front leg spurs, all look really neat ^^
Hey Great Video! Could you make a video specifically for seasoned Aldabra owners? More particular on diet? I saw what looked to be alfalfa hay. What are the best bales to get, do you look at the color of the hay, Are there other hay types, do you wet it, do you put mazuri on the bottom, how often do you feed them hay, tricks and tips? I have seen Sam P.'s ads on line for years it was good to put a name to the face :)
love all youre videos and i've learned alot from you and pushed me to learn even more about turtles tand tortoises which i have both of them and any informtion you could teach me i am very thankful
Iv had my sulcata Male gettin a hatchling he is now 11 years old. 3 months ago i got a 2 year old female... he is a totally different animal now. So much more activity! It's crazy. If i would have known i worked have bought 2 or maybe even 3 originally
Yea,they breed tortoises,....."BUT" they both truly,truely luv 'em even more.,.....Hey folks.,.....My suggestion is to ALWAYS start with "2" torts,......(In the long-run,.....It's ACTUALLY much cheaper),.....besides being more FUN & HUMANE to your tort.,...That's just my opinion.,.....One of the BEST tort vids of all-time,(just my opinion).Thanks you guys.
Love your channel, I have a question.. I recently got a pair of aldabras, but for some reason they are very fearful of people, they literally sprint away when they see humans. how do i make them more relaxed around people? tried to hand feed them but they wont budge out of their shells while im around. would appreciate any help, thank you!
Maybe I'll make it down to the Daytona show some day and you can show me around some of your amazing animals. I know my son would go bonkers over your Torts!
@@KampKenan Yes, it´s remarkable how you care for your animals and I think that Tortoises/Turtles are so overlooked so that makes your content even more important. I´ve always loved reptiles but it´s quite honestly your channel that has sparked my interest in these wonderful armored critters and made me a real fan of them too. 🐢👍🏻
Amazing video Dr. Sam and Kenan! Thanks for sharing such great info and footage! I've been thinking about getting an Aldabra from him...hmm wonder if he has any baby males available?
A point to add about Sulcata's. Sulcata's need to wear down their shells. I've made places for them to dig, but I limit how far down they can go, and I fill in the holes once or twice a week, so they have to dig it out again. My male Sulcata had some fairly bad pyramiding, and it's starting to wear down, so those scutes that look just as they did when they were babies are polished and almost gone.
Hi KANEN can I give bananas to my Spur High tort ? And also his nails have grown very long what can I do ? Because I don't think I can cut them What a wonderful video just loved it Thank You so much Barbra. U am x x x
Kamp Kenan is ALWAYS ready & knowledgeable to answer ANY "TORTOISE" question you got.Mr. Pascucci is another AWSOME,"COMMITTED" tort lover.I'm glad that "Dr. Sam" is spreading his wings on You-tube.,.....Between the "BOTH" of them,a "Phd" in tort care is FREELY offered.,....a big "P.S.",.....I'm a totally neutral third party who KNOWS tort-care when I see & hear it.,...
I'll just give my HUMBLE,really humble opinion.,......Pascucci & Kenan are #1,......There are other great ones with their PASSION out there,.....But I " HUMBLY DEFER" to those two guys for their collective opinions,as they're BOTH in 'IT' for for the joy,PURE JOY.,....."Z..Gaming,.....Sit back relax,(really chill,dude) sit back and ENJOY their collective EDUCATIONAL SHOWCASES.
Kenan my turtle passed away... :( I'd like to keep his shell. How do I do that? I was told I could use superworms to eat the inner parts but they might destroy the shell, too. I can't just leave him outside to decompose because raccoons will take off with him. My old boss gave me a bearded dragon that wouldn't eat and when he passed away I buried him outside and the raccoons just dug him up and took him. Which I don't mind. They're making use of it at least by eating it, but like I said, I'd like to keep the shell of my turtle so I can't have them coming and taking him....
I knew some of those guys got pretty big but 400+ lbs? Holy guacamole! Lol That's just over what my 11mo old colt weighs (hes 385). 😂 Imagine a tortise weighing the same as a young horse 🐎 🐢
He is a member of the zaa, I was just looking at that and one of the befinits of being a member of the turtle and tortoise conversation part of it, it says that you get access to offspring from other private breeders, he probably got them when he was young for free and grew his creep( the name of a group of tortoises)
My 5yr old has discovered you and is now obsessed with tortoises haha, she thinks you're spactacular! We're learning a ton ty
They are seriously the most adorable tortoises, they stand so tall and it's so cute 💗🐢
I had no clue you liked Kenan
18:28 man this got me, i'm in love
Hi KANEN
Thanks for coming back to me it was very kind of you
I just want to say I support you because I think you are one of the most caring men

I will feed my little Guy on a slate that sounds really good idea
Thank You again
Take Care
My Warmest Regards

Kenan has a huge heart. This guy is genuinely a good guy.
Aldabra/Galapagos videos are always my favorite to watch. Thanks for doing what you do Kenan!
Are aldabra the same species as Galapagos?
@@shanek6582 no they aren't, they are closely related but their not the same species, great question 😁
I am in love with aldabras! Thank you for these fun "bonus" videos where you visit with Sam.
I love aldabra tortoises are beautiful. I really like the bow tie they have on their shells just above their heads. Looks pretty cool 😊
I have a 200 year old 650 lb Aldabra. Love him so much.
Wow that's amazing!!
Oldest was 188, quit ur bullshit
I always enjoy him and his giant tortoises in your page! I learn so much...definitely my bucket list tortoise!! Thanks Kenan and Sam!!

Great bonus video Kenan!! 🐢
Ah they're literally dinosaurs! Hah I knew they got big but it always blows my mind seeing full grown ones.
Hey Kenan, Everything I know about tortoises I learnt from you in the last few months watching your channel. So interesting!
Again a lot of great information thanks!
Super cool video, I had to watch it twice. Awesome!!!
Awesome video as always Kenan! Man, I would love one of those Galap's one day.
17:37 throws banana lmao
I love Sam and his tortoises 😍🐢
I loved the last tortoise 🐢 That face, like “What you never seen a guy enjoy a little spa time?”
Aldabra's are really cool. They look a lot more unique in their actual features than some other torti's. Their foot shape, head shape and front leg spurs, all look really neat ^^

Can someone please do a hatchling care please ❤♥️♥️
Kinda Of Reminds Me Of Venasaur. (Even Thought Squirtle-Blastoise Is The Turtle Species)
Actually domed species of Galapagos tortoises are more social than saddlebacks
18:30 "there's the suction"
How do you move them?
What happened to the tail of that galop?
how do you differentiate male and female aldabra tort when they're about 1 year old??
Are there any tortoise you can keep outside in the mid

Thank YoU I think some is in here ❤
where do all these turtles go? how many can house an animal this big?
How old is the 30 in young female? I bought one from Sam a year ago, it was 4' but now only 6'. is it growing too slow?
No that’s perfect growth. How big is it now??
Love sam! Go back!
Hi KANEN can I give bananas to my Spur High tort ? And also his nails have grown very long what can I do ?
Because I don't think I can cut them
What a wonderful video just loved it
Thank You so much
Barbra. U am x x x
Hey just so you know where sulcata tortoises are native it gets below freezing at night, so if you let them dig they will live through the cold,

How much do gallops cost ?
Gallops I believe run from like 3,000 to 6,000, not exactly sure though, that is just a guess.
How long do they live?
Psyducklets if handled well up to 30+ years
Psyducklets 100+ years

Aldabras have been put on record being over 200 years old
