Gary, best of luck with the green sanzinias!!!! so exciting to see them hooked up......... norm f
Thanks Norm!
Love this channel. This guy has some of the most gorgeous snakes I've ever seen in my life
Thanks Luke!
Awesome snakes and great feeding video
Thank you!
What a fun video! Thanks Gary
Thanks for watching!
Lol 😂 I love your sense of humor Gary, bummed we missed you at tinley, we pick up our first green tree this year
Thanks Jackie!
I cannot express my excitement about more Sanzinias being produced here in the States. They're my bucket list snake and the more successes we have, the easier my dream will come to fruition
Trying my best! Thanks for watching!
Agreed
I LOVE that you make sure they dont get substrates in your snakes stomachs! Have seen so many other channels never seem to care and i hate seeing a small reptile have to eat a chunk of substrate with its meal 👍👍
We are on the same page! Thanks for watching!
It was great meeting you at Tinely! Love seeing your Amazon Basins!!!
Great meeting you as well! Already looking forward to next year.
@@garyschiavino1751 me too! 😁
Seeing snakes eat so eagerly rocks. I watched a ball python breeder do a feeding video the other day, and man was it sad.
It was a war of attrition 😂
Wow I love your silver savu so much and their feeding response !!!
Thank you!
your fear of getting bit is adorable, however in my experience it is the basins and northens that go for the hottest thing near them when they smell food, chondro's care about movement and are not all that worried about heat.
I'm not afraid of getting bit....OK...maybe a little. And by "a little" I of course mean "a lot". :)
I was thinking the same thing as far as paper n beefing and the next feeding you did it lol. Awesome collection, and Tinley is a good show and went to the first one many years ago but in FL now.
Thanks for watching, Mike!
Gary, was a couple of your green tree pythons caudal luring? Looked like it to me, how cool. Another Great Video!
They were.......most do. Hungry little buggers! Thanks for watching! (Love your screen name!)
Always something valuable to learn in your videos!! I’ve gone back and forth with using substrate with chondros. The number 1 reason I always decide to go back to paper towel is during feeding time when they take the food to the floor and drag it through the substrate is so anxiety inducing. I will definitely be trying that paper shield trick. Thanks for sharing!!!
You and I share that substrate anxiety! Thanks for watching!
Great feeding video!
Thanks James!
I’m giggling at the thought of the many panic attacks some keepers are having by watching you not change tongs per animal. Another great video 🤘
You are absolutely right! LOL (We think alike) Thanks for watching!
Discus tank looks incredible GS! Long time coming eh!
Thank you!!
Never really comment but another great video! Your animals are truly amazing plus your set up is so clean love it 🔥
Thanks Glenn!
I'm gunna get you some 18" hemostats one day haha
My birthday is in February. :)
i just got my first carpet python on sunday and shes already my favourite. she will not be my only carpet python and its a refreshing and exciting step up from a ball python
Congrats! Enjoy it!
The reality of the market is that breeder expenses have gone up astronomically over the last 2 years. Prices should be going up to reflect that. People dropping prices to sell animals are creating an unsustainable market condition.
I've been doing this for 40 years. The market will always sustain. Many breeders however will not. Thanks for watching!
The reality of the market is that it’s a luxury item market, and the economy is horrible. Inflation is insane. That has drastically lowered demand, and the influx of new breeders from COVID has increased the supply. Most markets go up and down with the economy, but luxury items are extra sensitive to it.
I can’t believe you didn’t get tagged 😮 I have to use bigger tweezers/tongs with my jungles and BRBs 😅
It's cuz' I'm a professional. ;)
I do your paper trick as well! I'm always leary of them ingesting the substrate if they end up touching the floor while eating.
Thank you for sharing this content!
Love your videos wish I saw you at Tinley
Thank you! Sorry I missed you!
Oh man you need longer tongs haha. I use 24" and it's a game changer
Agreed!!!
I don't think I have watched other people feeding their snakes other than my students who are feeding during training sessions. I am so used to the snakes earning reinforcement (food) contingent upon doing a cued behavior first, it looked so weird to me to just see the snake being given the food like that. Wild. I have about 128 snakes and I usually spend 30-60 seconds per snake unless I am teaching them a new behavior or asking then to do a behavior chain or complicated before then it takes longer.
Absolutely love ur setup and the High Quality of ur children lol and quick question, where did you get the enclosures? Love the all blk and staked look
Boaphile Plastics. Thanks for watching!!
I only have a couple Ball pythons (my thing is Common Snapping turtles) but it takes me longer to feed my snakes then it did for ALL yours!! Impressive!!😊
I worked with a guy who bred Carpet Pythons, & he came in ALL bloodied up from them all the time… but he never got stitches that I know of!
Blue Gonyosoma is holy Grail stuff - Rhino or Red Tail Ratsnake, eithe ror. That example is gorgeous. Like a long arboreal GTP you can handle more lol.
Such cool animals!
Hey Gary, great content as always. Don't feel bad about not wanting to get tagged, who really does want to get bitten by a mouth full of sharp needles? I was curious as to what size of rats you were feeding your 3 - 4 year old chondros? Thanks!
Those were weaned rats, however I typically feed jumbo/retired breeder mice. Thanks for watching, Kyle!
Thanks Gary! I'm still trying to nail down feeder sizing for my reptiles. @@gsreptiles5606
I acquired two CB22 Savus this summer. Both have a ‘striking’ feeding response, but one of them gets soo wired and just keeps striking (defensively?) and doesn’t have the best aim (too much concussion from striking?), but hopefully will settle down once out of quarantine.
Lovely species ☺️
Babies are super strikey, but with some handling, and as they grow, I promise they do calm down! Do not hesitate....pick them right up! Once in your hand, they will not bite!
@@gsreptiles5606 yes, one is, the other not so much. They don’t seem to have enormous teeth, so although one nipped me, it didn’t even break the skin. Although not like the more aggro Antaresia who sometimes want to bite, hold on and constrict you as well.
I set up a "go fund me page" to get Gary longer hemostats.............norm f
Very exciting! Keep me posted, Norm! :)
Great video
Thanks Colin!
Ive been bitten by a rainbow boa and let me tell ya. The teeth are no joke.
Did it hold on or bite for a second?
@@adularescent oh she held on for a few seconds
Was it yours? I have 2 that are less than a year old and the female bit me and it was so fast I realised I got bit when she was done
@adularescent yeah she missed the mouse and got my thumb. Left a few teeth in there
@@varanaut1308 the teeth stayed in you after she let go??? That’s crazy. Females really do be feisty. Especially young ones
Gary, you know what they say about men with small tweezers?!
Yes. They have small penises. What's your point? :) Thanks for watching!
I have never heard anyone say anything about men with small tweezers.
@@gsreptiles5606 😂🤣 say it without saying it 🤭
But what about men with enormous tweezers….. tiny?
For the record I have small tweezers and large tongs 🤷🏻♂️
But I shan’t talk any more about the supposed size of my point.
Another great episode Gary, keep them coming 👍👏👏
Im stealing that paper idea if needed lol
Or you can use a paper plate. Hope it helps!! (Thanks for watching!)
Gary, tell me your light green Sanzinia is going to breed this season???
Fingers crossed!
You may have answered this already but how often do you feed your snakes? I usually feed once every 2 weeks but they get more than 1 at a time. Maybe i am doing it wrong.
Babies and yearlings, once per week. 2-3 years old...every 2 weeks. Adults, every 2-3 weeks. Hope this helps!
Awesome video
