Since I started making an effort to actually breed the animals that I have kept, I have produced snakes every single year continuously since about 1990. Next season is essentially our last year here in the states and we are left with some challenging projects so we will see.
Nice video dan, keep doing these kind of videos plz, don't give a long gaps, just love to see all the obscure stuff you keep n the way you take care of them👍
I am actually considering not only editing out gaps but also editing out my breaths like the other youtubers...should be good for anxiety and panic attacks.
Beautiful Spotted Pythons! It will be extremely interesting to hear about the genetic testing of the shed skins. Spectacular looking Spilotes, gorgeous.
Yes! Love the big Spilotes. I agree on the size. I have a 6 year old male Drymarchon couperi and he's only about 6 1/2 feet, although, admittedly, he's always been a bit of a picky eater for a Drymarchon. I'm hoping my Spilotes continue to grow though. Being imports, hopefully they have the genetics to get big.
So good to see you! I am completely behind on your series, haven't had a lot of time to sit and watch lately 😢 I'm really looking forward to bingeing it!
You'll never see an "All my snakes" video. By the time you see babies from something I have never showed before, I will already have new secrets stashed away :)
I enjoy your videos because you do it for the love of reptiles unlike a lot of TH-camrs from Florida that get animals for views then get rid of them also tons of awesome and unusual reptiles I’ve never seen before.
I'm not even sure I am a "youtuber". There is just a fraction of viewers that watch to learn, the majority just want to be entertained or fill idle time with simply sitting in front of a screen. If modern entertainment is spending 24hrs in a snake cage, I am not an entertainer. However, at the end of the day I want my name associated with actually doing real things as opposed to being a jackass and forgotten about.
Hey Dan...Another quick question. I also have a white AP cage. A while back I used coco coir and peat mix and I swear it stained the hell out of the plastic. Have you ever had that issue and if you have, how did you get it off?
I use cypress mulch but haven't noticed any stains. I would just try various cleaning agents. You could probably also lightly buff or sand off the stain if it is just on the surface. For me I would just leave it stained as it doesn't really bother me and the occupants don't care at all.
Love what you guys do Dan love dmexotics really depressing to hear that you're going to be getting out of the business especially when I really just started getting into you guys and have yet to make a purchase from you
Antaresia are gorgeous and have 4 of them, one being an eastern Blotched and so different to the spotteds. Appreciate the video and look forward to them always.
Love the randomness today Dan! Nice AP cages too. In the market for an enclosure for my black milk snake who’s growing like a weed. Going with either Vision or AP. Only had racks until now and wondering what the maintenance is like with these bigger enclosures. For deep cleaning and disinfecting, do you dump out the substrate or use something like a shopvac? Those cages don’t look light so I’d imagine having to dump out substrate periodically could get quite labor intensive.
I use cypress and spot clean until it needs a deep cleaning. However, I am not removing those cages from where they sit. They are all wired up to thermostats, temp probes, etc. so I won't be breaking them down until we move. Those cages are not heavy and are easy to move around.
Really hope that genetic testing comes back in our favor! How amazing it would be to be able to include Papuan genetics in the shallow gene pool currently with the Anteresia. Or do you feel it would be best to only keep Papuan genetics separate from those from supposed Australian genetics? Also, those glass tea light holders look awesome! I have been looking for ways to get away from the plastic disposable deli cups so many of us use. I am assuming you are not a fan of the disposable plastic either? I normally use the pvc fittings and then put a 2oz deli cup inside of it. Those little glass ones you showed us looks like it would work in the pvc holder. Only reason I would still use the pvc is to increase the weight and foot print so it won't tip. I like to use the little cups with some of my rosy boas that tend to tip their bowls.
I needed water bowls with a narrower diameter because the smaller vision tubs are very narrow and won't accommodate a deli cup. Plus glass is easy to clean. In regards to the Antaresia, I am hoping the genetic testing comes back to indicate a new species or subspecies. I have never thought about using them to increase a gene pool...I think that would only ruin the purity of something so rare.
@@DMExotics Gotcha! Makes sense. My thoughts being that it was all one land mass at one time, that they would be the same species. If they are not the same, the obviously that would be amazing! Also, if they are the same species then that too would be amazing for the outcrossing of the current US genetics right?
ARea Reptiles I still would not outcross. The scrub pythons are distinct species, the green tree pythons are distinct species, frilled dragons, carpet pythons...the list goes on and on. However, I think the locality is enough to keep it separate. There are three Papuan animals out there, that is far less than pure super dwarf retics and it’s already a struggle to find pure animals of those that haven’t been cross bred and lost forever.
Placed my order for apcages 15 weeks ago, I better get mine first bahahaha. Give them a call if u wanna reach them they got a single person taking all the orders she can't keep up with everyone's emails

Great to see you ! Videos are great and I miss not seeing you and Apple!
Dan please keep making these great video's and please keep bringing great animals into the USA
Heck yeah fam! Breeding season sounds like it’s going to be awesome for you this year. Can’t wait to see more!

Hi Dan fantastic video! The office looks great :)
Cool stuff man ,,,,, keep rollin and posting
Very nice dude! Looking crisp and clean and I love how uniform it all looks. Very beautiful room arrangements and animals as well!
Inspirational! superb set up.
Sometimes random videos are the best!

Nice video and AP cages!
Fun little whats what at your place. A bit of a change of pace but I liked seeing what your working with and excited about. Have a great day man.

top la video comme toujours un grand merci toi
Would love to see more of those random videos!
There will likely be a bunch of random videos until we get to our next trip in January.
@@DMExotics great news!
I also like big colubrids! Good choice 👍
Great to hear from you again! Can’t wait to see some monitors in those terrariums!
They only go in there until I ship them out. I'm not looking to keep Varanus long-term...I'm moving in under a year.
Those large glass cages in your office?! where are they from?
Can't wait to see what's to come. Would love to see you produce some D'Albertis. Not many people having luck with them. Love the Baron's!
Love the videos keep up the good work
Very nice Dan. Love the baby baroni, might be interested in a pair.
Awesome projects. Is that a VE T-Stat I saw there?
I think they are all Herpstats

Spilotes!!! I love them😛but they are feisty!
Antaresia are gorgeous and have 4 of them, one being an eastern Blotched and so different to the spotteds. Appreciate the video and look forward to them always.
Lol! I love the title of this. I honestly would’ve watched even if I wasn’t subscribed to the channel. 👍🏻
What is that hatchling rack and what are the two tub sizes you are using on it?
I use melamine racks and the tub sizes are v15 and v18’s

Can't see the snakes with all the bright back lighting..
That is what happens in a random video lol. That room is still not complete but a lot of work getting done in there...
Do you think the diet effects the size of the drymarchon and other species?
No, a heavy diet just makes them fat. I think with some, a limited(and sometimes very limited) gene pool is making them smaller.
Dan, do you keep any Elaphe Carinata Yonaguniensis?
No we don’t. A lot of Chinese stock requires cooler temps than what we can provide being that almost everything we keep is tropical.
@@DMExotics Thanks brother, keep up the good work. Love your Ptyas Carinatas!
@@rickyny78 I have sold off most of them. I am only working with Malaysian carinata now.
How hard is it to get a baby king rat snake, I want one around the new year
I have been seeing them for sale online....doesn't look very hard to me.
Lol I'm 22 weeks on two enclosures and waiting patiently,but starting to grow inpatient.
22 weeks?!?!?! You guys will know if it takes that long. TRUST ME
@@DMExotics May 22, is when I ordered. I hope they are much faster for you Brother. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing.

Ants are reptile eaters. I’d split them up before you only have one.
Yes, the struggle of reptile breeding
