- Learn my ideas for feeding baby tortoises, whether it be a sulcata, cherryhead or elongated tortoise. The key is slow and steady not too fast when it comes to reptile growth.

What a range of personalities you had with those three little tortoises. The spunky active little cherry head, the easy going albino elongated, and the shy little elongated, that just wanted to be left alone.
(molecular biologist here) It's Tyrosinase! (pronounced tie-ro-sin-ays). It performs a key part of melanin synthesis, it's the rate limiting step, so without it (or if it works less efficiently) you don't get as much melanin. (fun fact, these enzymes work via oxidation, which is part of the reason potatoes go black after a while when you slice them up and expose the tissue to oxygen)
I can´t get enough of the content this channel brings. I wish we could clone Kenan. (; I know the animals would love that. Edit: Just look at these Tortoises - how can you not be fascinated and fell in love with them?
Production value on this video is through the roof !
Wow, such healthy beautiful little tortoises!! Thanks for the video Kenan! -Eric
I LOVE this new thought provoking pre-intro! Keep it up!
A fellow torty and turtle dad myself, my baby sulcatas and jr baby red foot have such the personalities. Not as picky of eaters as a russian tort i had, the red foot enjoys the occasional strawberry time to time. Great channel you got man and with such passion, it shows. Keep on educating! Turtle power!
They're pretty cute lol...love Kenan channel so much with the info and amazing tortoises
I really want a tortoise! They are so cute and love how they interact with their keepers when worked with regularly. lol omg that one little guy was just on GO GO GO lol.
This is the most awesome thing that ever happened to TH-cam
Haha that's a big statement
Nice sneak peek at the end.looks clear
your rec pond is the coolest
those guys look amazing
Man love this channel! Please make more and more vids!!!
I agree - I´m addicted.
Please keep the t positive elongated tortoise and make a series on taking care of him and watching him grow
2:28 The tortoise looks like it has Batman's bat-symbol on it's shell.
Great video!! Very informative!! Thank you for sharing!! Keep up the great and amazing work Kenan and Tom!! Love you all.
YOUR #1 FAN ~ Amanda Mandigo
Missed this kind of videos
Hey Kenan love your vids keep up the great work
Thanks for another educational video😎😊
Kenan you should keep the t.positive for albino it's lovely and once again congratulations on yours and Kate's marriage and I pray good fortune for you as a family.
I love ur video's and animals u give me tips every day
The cherry head made a quick get away😂
Thanks for the info! :)
Got my 5 month old daughter watching with me 6:10 am . So early haha
Awesome Priimo!
That´s a great start in life. (:
They are so cute! 👌
Another awesome video
Love your vids man
Thanks!
Early growth rates are fascinating. This year, I hatched 6new Box Turtles in two days . Sadly, one failed to thrive and died at three months . One was tiny like the one that died, but he is my most aggressive feeder and is now second largest. There is one that is half again larger than the biggest one, and three that are close in size and maybe 5 times their hatching weight since hatching last July. Loving those dusted mealworms and earth worms..
Sup Kenan another great vid
Thanks Alex!
I’m not subscribed but I watch all your videos
Love your videos kenan😃
Great Video
i am a fan you do good work
That cherry head 🤣😂
Great video! Could you update us on Kyle's new facility?
I freakn love these baby tortoises!!!!
I wish everyone considering getting a medium or larger size tortoise would research it first and see what adults of that species look like. I got my tortoise Emelie from a family that simply decided she was too much work. Their son was in highschool and lost interest in her. They have a life-span sometimes longer than ours so being a tortie parent is a life long commitment.
Tortoises need water..... THANK YOU! I am so frustrated when I watch respected TH-cam channels and they say to water them only once or twice a week. WHY would you do that? Give them fresh clean water and let the animal decide if it's thirsty . As always Kenan, you are the best!
Hi Kenyan U are amazing
Show your REC pond.Please.
we haven't seen crocodile kyle in quite sometime!!! Maybe we will see him soon?
Hey kenan what in your opinion would be a good enclosure for a decent sized snapping turtle
I have a baby red foot, I feed her on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, in the weekends I give her some extra food or fruit, those days where I don’t feed, I soak her, I also sprinkle calcium 2 times a week
Just as
Cute
I know Elephant Ear leaves can be fed to Elongated and Mountain tortoises but are Elephant Ear (Colocasia Esentula) okay for sulcata tortoises? I find conflicting info.
Lol is that the pickman sound track lol
Hi, I have two Hermann's tortoises, both one year old and they haven't grown one bit since I got them from my local pet shop. Is there anything to improve their growth and to get them on the right path? They are roughly 2.5 inches.
Hi kenah can you post about your lizard more please
New to this channel
Absolutely ♥️ you and your sweet wife
Welcome to the Kamp:)
Can you do a video about turtle feedings.
Can you answer this same question for turtles!
I think Kenyans dieting 😂 “caloric def-d-da-density!” Hahaha
Loved my Elongated, did great in outside enclosure just stopped eating around Christmas and passed. Still bummed
Slow and steady wins the race
How long those sulcadaturtle egges hatch
Ive noticed my Miso has developed white growth lines between his scutes...is that ok for a 2 yr old redfoot or is that a sign he is growing too fast?
My tortoise is such a picky eater ! He only wants to eat lettuce some weeds what can I do for him to eat other things for better nutritious factors ?
Kenan Is Vsauce confirmed
You see the cherry head in the background making a break for it
Love the sound of water but it’ll force you to use the facilities (toilet) for the people who doesn’t know
No pyramiding is only caused by too dry conditions. Keeping hot temps and high humidity has hatchlings makes smooth tortoises. (For most species)
Wrong. An incorrect diet, especially one with too much calcium also causes pyramidying.
Miss Holly WRONG :● It's okay I wont critizise your opinion. Pretty sure neither of us are scientist with tortoises specialization. Just saying what I believe to be true based on my experience and others.
Agree 100%. Closed chambers are the way to go. Humidity is the one factor that many people overlook. Unfortunately the majority of keepers choose to ignore or disagree with this. I just direct them to Tom’s decades long success with his smooth sulcatas.
I've had turtles and tortoises for close to 40 years humidity has everything to do with it . Rhetorical question ? Have you ever seen an aquatic turtle with pyramiding . The pyramiding is always more pronounced in the earlier stages of growth when they are less tolerant of moisture deprivation ; humidity . Think 2mo human not as tolerant of the sun as a 20 year old adult .
What tortoise would you suggest for a 2x4x2 wooded enclouser
Yea I know it’s way to small for a larger tort but one of the smaller one under 12inchea should be just fine
Just don’t know about tort too much has far as the difference in species and how big they get except for the ones Kenan has
5 :15 what a cutie
Nothing to see-just rocking out with about a hundred musicians?!? Prefer your more recent band-Kenan, Kate and kiddies! :)
Random question: how long after seeing my Musk turtles mating should I expect possible eggs? Sorted out a nesting area already, just curious. Do you think I should put a heating lamp on it at night to encourage its usage? I'm in the UK and night tend to be a little cooler than I imagine their habitat in the wild would be. Found lots of info on how long eggs take to hatch not so much how long till laying. Thanks for your great work matey, Chris
what means - elongated - tortoise? for me as a german I have no idea
i have a juvenile greek tortoise, I feed it spring mix (not the spinach) what else should I feed him/her and how fast should he/she grow since (he’s about 3 1/2 or 4-ish inches
fluffy water make sure toy dust that with reptile calcium and multivitamin at least a couple times a week
okay, thanks
The tortoises had me laughing you kinda trying to keep them in one area and nope they want to explore especially the albino he kept going to the water like. Dad i want to play in the water..haha
I want to buy a tortoise from you but I don't have Facebook how else Can i get one
Would you say Sulcatas are more likely to get pyramids and how do I get my Sulcata to drink water he eats but when he bathes he’s more thinking about getting out not drinking it?
Jusin Dominguez I spray water on my sulcatas green leaves or squash or cucumber. :)
My sulcata keep requesting for food end up I have to feed him a lot...
5:36 all u need to see
Hi kenan! My teacher gave me last April or March a baby herman's tortoise about 7cm. Until August, Sptember it grew 2 cm, to 9cm. Is it normal? Should I feed it less? I am from Greece and I have it my yard. At the moment it is.....hybrinating I think is the word... He/She loves it. I love watching him/her just walking.... He/She WATCHES everyone😂just spying people who come and leave!
Those are alot he/she 😂
Ninja Turtles... 🐢🐢🐢
U were in a band Kenan????
That's so cool! Love the baby tortoises they r so adorable!!!!!
T+ means it has Tyrosinase
Which means they don't have Melanin but that's not due to a fault in producing Tyrosinase, but somewhere else along the steps to producing Melanin.
They're different coloured from T- Albinos due to the Tyrosinase colour as far as I understand it.
What's up
Sup
👍👍👍🙏
Can a tortoise eat avocado
Mine eat then of the ground and they are 30 yrs old now.
How big of a tank does a painted belly turtle need ?....... kamp kenan
Yeah i love the sound of water
But i hate the sound of pepole eatch kfc like a dog D:
What are pepole?
@@jaggirl something that eats kfc
@@skyler3295 oh... Hahaha.
First... Love your vids
Thanks!!
I think baby tortoises are really cute but personally I won’t ever buy a baby. I only like adults. . . I think it’s because they live so long. So I’ll pay more for an adult.
Pyramiding is based on humidity conditions and research suggests it has little to nothing to do with diet. Wild tortoises dont pyramid.
I agree on the humidity part of this however , wild tortoises do have plenty of examples of pyramiding look a wild caught sulcatas , leopards
its the same for turtle dont let turtle grow too fast it very bad
10th comment
how can you tell a tortoises sex
First
Almost
The intro questions to the ask kamp Kenan episodes are getting tedious to watch
Hard no bud. You can always skip it. Theyre fun for the rest of us - dunno bout Kenan though!
Theses intros are so cringe... skip
