I enjoyed Nick & Marissa working together. Love that the home owners put out water, & tried for food, for the trapped snakes. Hopefully, they will install an easily removable snake proof screen over the window well. That was a DEEP one!!
Nick has long hair this is Jeff in the video
You mean jeff 😊
Me too they are great together 😊
I feel like team ups are great for the night time releases, just from a safety and comfort perspective. Much respect for those folks for putting water out.
I agree
I like it from a safety POV. Two of you to take care of each other in the heat of the desert, plus one can film while the other drives.
That was fun to watch with Jeff and Marissa working together. Thanks for going through the trouble to get together on these!
I like both teamups and solo vids, but I feel like the teamups are probably a good safety precaution, especially because the desert at night is hella creepy 😂
I always worry a little for you all when I see you going out in the desert at night alone 😅 Kind of a nice thought it was the two of you.
Would love to see more duo content!
I really enjoyed the team up...but honestly I'll watch no matter what ☺
Y’all were too funny pairing up in this one! I think this is a great way of doing this if two of you are available at the same time or if there is a difficult situation where two would be better for safety reasons. Individually is great too, so whatever works best for the day!😊I learn so much from y’all! Thank you!
I enjoyed this team-up! (Also really enjoy Marissaa conversations with the snakes too 😅) So awesome for the homeowners to set out water for the trapped snakes, but hopefully they get a snake screen or something so no more creatures get trapped.
Enjoying the tag team video. You work well together. Great captures, stay cool, stay safe and GOD bless
Love this teaming up thing. This was a great idea and another great video! Hope to see more of the team videos.
Definitely see the value of teaming up at night to reduce the creepiness of going to the desert at night.
The team-up concept is interesting. In the first call because it was a normal easy call for one snake, it was a little awkward with one person working the call and the other sitting around filming/waiting. However, the next team-up call it was a complex call that had both Marissa and Jeff had roles working the call and that felt super organic and fun to watch. Just my thoughts, love anything yall do!
Team ups are great to have at times. Both solo and team ups are great, as long as you guys can make a living doing the job well.
I like the duo style for many reasons 😊
Singles, doubles anything rocks! totally get the less creep factor when not alone out in the desert at night. You guys are amazing!! Now I really feel bad for the pool house snakes having had a dead 3rd roommate in there. Easy to see why that was a good spot being somewhat protected and water access. That was a lightning fast Western Diamond Rattlesnake in the window well. My goodness those little coach whips were fired up! You guys rock!
I don't really have a preference. Individual runs are cool too and educational. But this was a fun watch as well. And an extra pair of hands always come in handy.
Whichever works the best for you guys.
I enjoy the team ups especially on that window well and in the creepy desert at night
Love the beautiful ❤aerial or drone views
Yea those coach whips are so adorable 😊😊😊
I really enjoyed the team up. I look forward to more team ups.
Good day, I will watch anything you all do. Two or one person/s , it does not matter to me.!
Alway fantastic video's
Love the channel! Marissa is great on camera!
That was cool seeing them working together! Each has their own takes on rattlesnakes!
Nice team-up test. It seemed a little awkward at times (probably for you guys too) since you and us viewers aren't used to it. Maybe do it one episode per month/2 months if the footage is good? Feels like you are more comfortable being behind the camera filming when you are doing your solo runs. Never hurts to try new things (I sure tried with my stuff to stand out more - don't think it worked though, haha). Fun stuff!
I like both solos and team work as well! Either and or both is good by me. Great video
That drone shot makes me miss home! One more week and never to return to CA. Unlsss it's for a houseboat trip.
Love the buddy videos! Fun to see your interaction. However...it's whatever gets your job done most easily and safely. ❤ So either way.❤
I like either or....
I just really enjoy the video's,
Keep up the great work 👍
Nice
🇺🇸💖👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻‼️
I enjoyed watching the two of you together and watching Marissa trying not to be bitten! I got a little concerned for Nick with the fast rattler!
I love the pairing up. I feel it adds to the safety factor. However, you wouldn’t get me to go down into a hole with rattlesnakes in it even for a lottery jackpot. 🤣
I think jeff is so cute 😊
Nick's ow ow ow, reminds me of the movie Bullet Train with Brad Pitt's assassin's Ladybug character sticking the assassin's Boomslang snake into the bullet train's toilet to contain it.
Uber for rattlesnakes!!! Question: how do the sneks contact Uber for a ride? Do AZ sneks (& my beloved Gila monsters 💕) have credit cards? Asking for a friend.
You are funny thank you!
😂
They charge rattlesnakes on a sliding scale 😉🤭
Like two together 👍🏻👍🏻
Marissa grabs 2 coachwhips on a ladder. . they instantly are calm. Going wild for Nick!
Coachwhips are sort of infamous for being nippy and the larger ones can bite a person anywhere 😂. They're not venomous so snake handlers laugh it off and it's no big deal. Washing the area with soap and water is usually all that's needed. Contrary to many online myths, snake bites aren't particularly prone to getting infected either.
I've been bitten by many of our pet snakes and it's honestly a non issue. Getting stuck by thorns is more painful than being bitten by a relatively small non venomous snake, like under 5-6 feet. My kingsnake is very paranoid and has nipped me several times, it didn't even bleed. Lol. They strike very fast so that's kind of startling, more so than the nip being painful or even drawing blood.
Water snakes have sharper teeth for grabbing slippery prey like fish. Their bites can draw some blood, but it's still not a big deal. 😄😊
I liked the new format, but like the old one better. I could not be in that enclosed area spraying water in that hole not knowing what might come out
It's interesting how they calm down after they're picked up. I would've thought it would be the opposite. Is it because of where on their body you pick them up (like how cats will go limp if you pick them up by the scruff of the neck because of the nerve in their neck that causes them to go limp)?
Usually a snake will calm down pretty fast when they realize you're not trying to hurt them, and are supporting their body so they don't fall.
Some also like the warmth of your hands if they're cold.
I have a very paranoid kingsnake I named Sid Vicious (because he thinks he's a bada$$ and who am I to harm his IittIe snake ego ?) 😂 Even as nippy as he is, when I pick him up, calmIy and confidently, he doesn't even try to nip because he knows I'm not going to hurt him from past times I've handled him.
There are videos of how to handle a non venomous snake, properIy on YT if you want to Iearn more and see it visually. l Iove when peopIe are curious about snakes, knowledge is power and beats fearing snakes any day. 😊👍🏼
Love your videos! do you just take them to a desert area somewhere to release?
1. what music did u used? i love it
2. how common are speckled rattlesnakes? I lot of them on this channel but haven't seen one in real life (that i know of)
They're pretty common in Southern Cali, the western part of Arizona, the southern border of Nevada and in Baja California.
They come in different colors, to better match their environment including a white color with speckles. They're stunning, the white ones. ❤
Not sure if it's economically viable to have two workers responding to a single call, but from this viewer's standpoint, it's better video.👍
It's funny they tried to feed the rattle snake an egg. it was a nice gesture at least.
I like the idea of you going in twos but it seems like it would be much less profitable. It's great for video though!
Any time you guys go to Ahwatukee, I'm curious to see if you'll end up in the crazy rich part of it with the giant silly mansions on the hill, or the poorer strip malls 'n' apartments area where I used to live. Invariably, it seems that much of your clientele are the more affluent folks with all the watered plants and leaky pool equipment in their yards who live next to open desert. Go figure. ;P
(....and then you even end up at a true rarity: an Arizona house with a basement! XD)
Hi, How far do you travel to retrieve the snakes? Thanks.
Jeff anytime you all have a knowledge show you all are together. A few of you get together when you show your out of the US trips.
Had no clue that there were more than 4 of you on the team
9 !? but you are always covering for the tucson area? is Tucson not a large callbase to have someone there?
I thought there was only 3 of you plus the receptionist
They were cool with a snake just living in the well for a month?
uber for snakes
I can see how working together would make you feel safer in the desert at night, I personally would probably carry a discreet .357 going out like that but that's not your niche on you tube
Dang gas prices /s
If Phoenix has a very dry rain free summer, how will this effect the birthing of newborn Rattlesnakes?
Do these guys charge for their service? Or are they volunteering their service for the love of reptiles?
like the individual runs better
Why do some of you use a hook over the tongs?
I like the pairing but it's imperitive you refer to each other as Reed and Malloy...
Your interactions are fine and good to see you getting along, but, seriously, unless there are a hundred snakes on site it seems a complete waste of time having 2 of you out there together. I don’t know how you’re paid but this also looks like a waste of money as 2 people are not necessary to grab a snake or two. With all that said, I totally understand about being out in the desert at night by yourself. Teaming up is much better. Question, do you guys carry a gun for protection?
I'm not a fan of a duo to catch snakes. I love Nick and I love Marissa, but I don't see how it's a benefit having two people do a one person job. Just my two cents that nobody cares about anyway. 😊
How do you make money doing this
So; be honest...is it as simple as the photogenics vs. the uggos..? Vs. the camera-shy..?
Do you wear shin protection under your pants
take something better on you feet when you hunting snakes
The other day the snake was very thirsty.
As a normal procedure would putting water in the bucket be a stupid or sensible idea? Would that change from season to season or how stressful the capture / relocation.
I think they usually do put water in the bucket with the snakes if there's any reason to think they need it. Just enough to drink, but not enough to make the snakes cold stressed.
@@metalmamasue3680 indeed they do thanks
Are rattlesnakes endangered ? Why risk death or serious injury trying to catch them? I have pets and children on my property and if I find one I’m going to eliminate it but I admire your decency
They are trained professionals, who are very unlikely to be bitten because they are trained to use snake hooks and rubber coated tongs to catch them, that put the snakes out of strike range, because they grab them gently but firmly at a part of their body that doesn't aIIow the snake's strike range to reach their arm/hands.
Some rattlesnakes are also endangered or threatened including Ridge nose rattlesnakes and twin spotted rattlesnakes. Others have declining populations in some areas but haven't been put on the endangered list yet.
And they save them yes, because they love them, but also because no animal shouId be kiIIed simply for the crime of being born and breathing the same air as we do.
Snakes are also nature's pest control. They feed on rodents who carry disease ridden ticks and fleas, thereby decreasing humans risk of contracting some of the deadly diseases carried by ticks and fleas.
Hantavirus is one of the very scary diseases that can be contracted by wild rodents as well as the plague, which there are a few cases every year in the mid & southwest. There are many others but those are 2 of the worst diseases.
Also, humans risk being bitten by the very act of trying to kiII a venomous snake, so it's best Ieft to professionals to deal with.
There are cases every year of peopIe being bitten by trying to kiII snakes.
I hope that helps.
There's lots of educational material about venomous snakes available and even Facebook groups that help educate people about coexisting with wild snakes. We coexist with bears, snakes, Mt Lions in some areas and other potentially dangerous animals. Snakes deserve a chance like any other animal, they're very misunderstood and demonized by many. No animal controls rodent populations as well as snakes do. Not owls, raptors or cats.
Snakes are the top rodent predators.
People who keep snakes, Iove them every bit as much as others love their pets. They are fascinating and curious animals who have distinct personalities, I quite enjoy my 2.
