Never have I seen so many scrubs and so little urates! I'm impressed! Mine was a sweetheart, but she still soaked me every other time I got her out. Regarding your final comments, we are all aware of the mainstream species which make up about 95% of the hobby, but for those-like myself-who are interested in the other 5%, we have our eye on you Dan. Thank you for creating quality content for the rest of us!
+Terry Burwell There seems to be way too much #sellingthedream and I foresee serious problems ahead for species that are now mainstream but shouldn't be. Simalia also are not for everybody but I feel good knowing that the people that follow my content are the free thinkers that are here because they like this species....not because they have jumped on a band wagon. I have been working very hard towards retirement so my time left in the hobby is limited but it looks like there is a nice core group of hobbyists working to keep this species going strong in the hobby.
+DMexotics I truly believe we are all standing on the shoulders of those who came before us and put in the time, effort, experimentation and implementation to establish certain species and practices. And you have some giant shoulders Dan! Now it's up to us in the current generation to learn from those-like yourself- and continue into the future.
I think you’re awesome! I love the variety you’re bringing in and all the info you have about them and the region they’re from. You seem to really care about your suppliers and their communities and that’s amazing!
I really enjoy your videos it gets to repetitive seeing the more man stream snakes. never have I seen such amazing scrub pythons keep doing what your doing.
Being able to get out and Herp some areas and possibly finding something with per say different characteristics must be totally off the hook exciting 👍🏽
Really enjoyed this video. It's awesome seeing some more alternative corners of the hobby. Hopefully I can find some beautiful pythons like this around England. Keep it up!
Two things I don't like about scrub pythons: 1) The way they always hold their head up like they're trying to go somewhere, and it's usually not where you want them to go. 2) When they are nippy and try to bite you. If it weren't for those two things I'd rate them a lot higher for a pet snake. They are more active than boa constrictors, but I like that boas are slow and docile and generally much easier to manage.
If looking for a pet snake that you can watch tv with on your lap...scrub pythons definitely are not the one. For me personally, I always just kept the animals I thought were interesting and being docile never really made much difference to me.
i listen to podcasts about some of these but mostly at work so i dont get to see. thank you for sharing such variety of snakes i prob otherwise would never get to see
Any chance of a Scrub Pythons 3.0 coming out during lockdown? Even if you’ve since thinned the collection and there are only a few animals to highlight it would still be awesome to hear more about your experience with scrubs, from the first time you became aware of them in your youth to finding and documenting specimens in the wild as an adult, as well as thoughts on establishing sustainable lineages in captivity to supply the incredibly high market demand and how reptile farms like the ones you are affiliated with can help to protect locality bloodlines for the hobby and conservation efforts alike, etcetera-only a few examples. My inkling is that Apple could film you just reminiscing about your personal journey with scrubs and your hopes for the future and I can guarantee that I and all the other Simalia fanatics will watch it many times over just like these first two installments. When it comes to this complex, the Ptyas, and everything else you’ve drawn well-merited attention towards, you’re easily the best content creator on the platform bar none. Broadcasts from you two are an infusion of calmness and clarity in the best of times but they’re downright precious in this exceedingly trying one we’re all now weathering together. Many thanks, Mack
Loe the videos and Scrubs. Would love to own one some day. I have kept many different species and I did take care of a Southern Scrub for about two months for a friend. Quite an experience. The little girl would light me up every chance she got but working with her was so much fun. She grew into a very well tempered adult.
+Ewan Clark I will actually be posting the blandingii for sale today so if they are something you might be interested in purchasing let me know. I don't see the value of doing a video with a species I have decided not to keep. I am trying to keep my focus on a smaller number of species to hopefully increase my success with breeding.
I always think that some reason I think the pet trade in the officers can work together by releasing like half and half some go back into while some of the pet trade
Maybe someone reads it and can answere: if you buy baby’s from awsome parents. Do they get the Same colouration or is it a surprise how they will look?
It is no different than other animals, babies from awesome parents increases your chances of having a similar looking animal but it is also no guarantee that every offspring will be identical to the parents...I have ugly friends that have had awesome looking children lol
Hey Dan love the channel all you videos are great and I really enjoy your philosophy. I recently acquired a male patternless Sorong locality scrub python. I was curious as to how often you see patternless Sorongs. AlsoI was curious to see if you have any female Sorongs available.. Thank you for inspiring me to do my own thing and focus on what I like and not on what Everyone else is doing i great appreciate that!
+Frank Wilson No oil here my friend...you keep watching Rich lol. At 45 years old I'm just trying to be healthy. I am a 5%er in the reptile hobby only...whatever it takes LOL
Hey Dan were can I get some scrub pythons about how much do they usually run for a pair. And I'm extremely ill need in some Annulated tree boas any help would be a blessing. Love the channel and love that you do your one thing anf focus on snake and animals that you enjoy dare to be different keep up the great work
Hey Dan. I love your videos very much and I also like scrub python.But I have a problem with my scrub python.....my scrub python is so fierce that I can't take it out the cage! Could you tell how to train it?
Just enjoy your scrub python the way it is. I do not feel compelled to handle my animals the way most people do and my decisions to keep animals are not based on whether they are placid or defensive.
But a lot of the snakes don't even exist in there islands of Ben develop too much so there's no way to release a lot of them because they would just not survive
The biggest flaw in your idea is that releasing incorrect matches of animals to geographic areas would have an unknown effect on future populations. Many of these locality types are only speculation. While you can find hundreds of internet experts that will argue locality until they are blue in the face...the truth of the matter is that they do not know. Until I start seeing field research and entry stamps in some passports, the locality debate isn't going to lend itself to releasing animals back into the wild.
hey Dan. I love your videos! I know you didn't show them in this video but how often do you have the white lips for sale. I'm absolutely in love with them and am considering possibly getting one. so, I was just wondering how often you have them and where is your home office?
I got a bearded dragon a corn snake and i veiled chameleon has been a little all of them been alive more than 5 years the veiled chameleons been around for 3 years
I don't do price lists but I have a bunch coming on Monday and I may start photographing and updating my available page on my website with new arrivals. Usually stuff sells pretty fast and I never get a chance to do it but I have a good amount coming.
+dit dot in all reality these animals probably have a better life in captivity then they ever would in the wild. they get affection, they get food with no work, water with no work, and a climate that is perfected just to fit their needs. how could that possibly be a bad thing. relax dude it's not that serious. if you don't like it why watch?
They deserve to be in the wild with there problems and helped nt being able being to climb trees and be free instead of being stuck in a box snakes don't care about affection most reptiles prefer to be left alone ur saying u acept animals being taking away from the wild and getting engaged so u slap ur self and have a good day

Another great video. All those scrub pythons look awesome, I especially love the bar necks.

Very interesting! I have never seen most of the pythons you just showed us, thanks.
Yea one of the better guys doing videos and I love seeing the less common animals.
Beautiful pythons. Interesting that the feisty one which struck at you didn't bite when you picked him up.
Loe the videos and Scrubs. Would love to own one some day. I have kept many different species and I did take care of a Southern Scrub for about two months for a friend. Quite an experience.

Hi there, love the work that your doing. Could u please do an update on the boiga blandingii? would love to see how they are coming along.
+Ewan Clark I will actually be posting the blandingii for sale today so if they are something you might be interested in purchasing let me know. I don't see the value of doing a video with a species I have decided not to keep. I am trying to keep my focus on a smaller number of species to hopefully increase my success with breeding.
You have some great scrubs. Enjoying your videos.
This has got the be the best intro I’ve ever seen💯
love scrub's, used to own a tame one myself and would really love to get back into them some day. Good work, we need people like you in the hobby 👍.
''tame'' 🥴
More please, tryna to learn more on the non mainstream species of snakes. Scubs are amazing!!
This is a very old video, you have many more videos to go all full of non-mainstream animals.
I always think that some reason I think the pet trade in the officers can work together by releasing like half and half some go back into while some of the pet trade
Amazing animals! I'd love to see a facility/collection tour...
Channel is badass. Really admire the different animals tired of seeing ball pythons
Maybe someone reads it and can answere: if you buy baby’s from awsome parents. Do they get the Same colouration or is it a surprise how they will look?
It is no different than other animals, babies from awesome parents increases your chances of having a similar looking animal but it is also no guarantee that every offspring will be identical to the parents...I have ugly friends that have had awesome looking children lol
@@DMExotics didnt expect an answere that fast. Thank you very much. Do you think 400€ for a sorong baby is to much?
MrHippi89 For captive bred seems like a good price.
@@DMExotics Thanks a lot. If I buy one I will show you
@@DMExotics hey sorry me again. Your the pro: If you have the choice which would you prefere: Sorong or Merauke?
I like scrubs did not realise so many different patterns etc thanks
Good video
That 'southern' looked a lot like the Aussie scrubby's. Nice stuff.
Hi, really compliments for all. awesome snakes and structures too.
What's the size of an adult cage?
Hey Dan love the channel all you videos are great and I really enjoy your philosophy. I recently acquired a male patternless Sorong locality scrub python. I was curious as to how often you see patternless Sorongs. AlsoI was curious to see if you have any female Sorongs available..
Thank you for inspiring me to do my own thing and focus on what I like and not on what Everyone else is doing i great appreciate that!
Rich Piana is my favorite natural bodybuilder. You look like your making some gains lately on those biceps bro,their looking huge

Just enjoy your scrub python the way it is. I do not feel compelled to handle my animals the way most people do and my decisions to keep animals are not based on whether they are placid or defensive.
So why do you keep them if you don't interact with them or take them out much?
I am a breeder.
How big will the sorong barnecks get?
They can get pretty big 12'-14' but most will be smaller
@@DMExotics okay cool...been looking into getting one eventually such beautiful snakes
@@DMExotics how big of an enclosure would you reccomend?
@@lobes4president767 As big as you can provide.
Veiled chameleon that I own I have found out why they don't survive in captivity they don't eat nothing but insects dead or alive
But a lot of the snakes don't even exist in there islands of Ben develop too much so there's no way to release a lot of them because they would just not survive

What size tubs do you use for that rack in the back room?
CB 80
hey Dan. I love your videos! I know you didn't show them in this video but how often do you have the white lips for sale. I'm absolutely in love with them and am considering possibly getting one. so, I was just wondering how often you have them and where is your home office?
I'm out of the country at the moment but I have some available, I'll be back on June 10th. dan@dmexotics.com Thanks
Hi,
how big and how much weight are your biggest female of morelia amethistina?
My female is over 10 kg, and i think 3,5 m.
My biggest female is 15' and 35lbs....although perhaps a little heavier since preparing for breeding season. She is not in this video.
I got a bearded dragon a corn snake and i veiled chameleon has been a little all of them been alive more than 5 years the veiled chameleons been around for 3 years
When breeding season comes around, what is the price tag for one of the babies? Also, are you in the states?
I am in the states but no longer keeping scrub pythons for breeding. I do get babies off the farm and the baby season is now.
DMexotics Can you provide a price list? And how often do you get them? I freakin love your channel by the way!
I don't do price lists but I have a bunch coming on Monday and I may start photographing and updating my available page on my website with new arrivals. Usually stuff sells pretty fast and I never get a chance to do it but I have a good amount coming.
Dan the high lands are bad ass 🌟
Great vid my man. Any info on price list for these guys?
Joshua Smith he has a website where you can browse available animals and make inquiries. It's DMexotics(dot)com
I didn't know vin diesel was into reptiles
holy crap that's a big snake!I love it
Beautiful pythons !
The one at 4:52 looks like she wants a kiss. There are definitely a few that try to get right up in your face space hah.
Awesome snakes
I found the scub video awsome

W.O.W.
Hello new subscriber.
Welcome to the channel
nice check out my reptiles and also make sure to watch the Pomona reptile Show I went to
I like Reptil
Im from Jayapura- Papua Indonesia

Cool video as always! ☺
I really see that you love working with your animals 👍
