- Inky's new cage and habitat is pretty sweet, but today it becomes a proper palace. We are upgrading this giant lizard enclosure with branches, plants and a very cool hide box with cave tunnel entrance! This black dragon is living in style!

New videos every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday!
Let's create a new generation of educated reptile keepers & animal enthusiasts by spreading the love!
It's nuts how big she is . In the other enclosures you really couldn't judge her size . Time really does fly . It's insane how she's gone from fitting in your hand to being bigger than your arm . You guys have done a awesome job with the enclosure.
Thank you!
I have been a fan for a while but I do have to say, the banter between Kenan & Matt has added so much to the already great content. Great job guys, looks awesome.
Bravo!
A beautifully designed enclosure accompanied with witty and funny banter and great visuals.
When you were deciding to use the Artificial Rock, the immortal words of Emperor Palpatine came to mind:
DO IT!
Watching you and Matt work & interact is almost as good as watching the animals! I've seen Jerry Wolfe's building structures--which is awesome. But I get the most laughs out of you two!
Thanks!
So well said ! These two young men crack me up while lifting my heart !
Kenan & Matt =
Groundskeeper Willie & Sideshow Bob
*Oof* 😂
Right 😂 just crack me up. There such cool guys
I finally realized what this was reminding me of.... " The hanging gardens of Babylon" . One of the seven wonders of he ancient world ! And now Inky has this multi-level palace with dripping waterfalls and a totally secure, subterranean sleeping chamber. Her majesty has arrived !
Kenan, 33:45 when you open the lid you can see a screw that went through the lid and is protruding out the other side. Just letting you know so Inky doesn’t get stabbed by it. Great job though, looks incredible!
Nice house for Inky. I'm sure she'll enjoy it as long the humans stay out.
@11:56 that a frog in the top right corner xD Also when the door was slight open I was just stressing at the thought of her making a break for it. Its been amazing seeing Kenan and Matt work together, they are such a fun duo of friends
I would like to recommend a plexiglass window in the top of Inkys box with a black rubber flap. That way, you can look on the box to check on her without having to open the lid. Just a thought. Genius really! Lol😂
I love when you are both doing videos as you can feel how much fun you two are having! It’s like just watching two best friends having the time of their lives 🥰
Yay! Thank you!
When you're hanging the pothos you can see a frog climbing in the upper right hand corner. I hope it's not a poisonous one for her! The enclosure looks amazing! She's grown so much! My favorite videos or new enclosure videos! ❤
Thanks for the info!
@@KampKenanim glad you decided to use "pothos" vine plant as a hide vegetation for Inky!! Its a good call 😅🤙🏼 reference to you having the same plant in old Solomon and El Diabla enclosures. I miss them terribly 😢,i genuinely do.
They wasnt the most handleable tight of lizards(for those are going to read this comment,they were solomon island or long island skinks) i pray 🙏🏼🥺 one day,youll be featuring a wide variety of different skink set ups from Spiny tailed, Monkey tailed and blue tongue giant skinks 🦎..
Kudos and thanks for all you do big brother 🫢🙌🏼👊🏼 🙏🏼
You two were on fire this time, LOL. Peak banter. You guys have great energy together. I myself grew up with the San Diego Zoo and I agree definitely- building them their little worlds and enriching em is a huge part of the fun of reptiles, always something new to be developing or growing or building. It's having a tiny zoo, and getting to see the critters entertained and engaging with their environment. It's especially fun to see what you do because we work at opposite scales of size! My largest enclosure for my own zoo is a 4x2 (ball python) and the smallest is 4inch x 8 inch (jumping spider!) The other tanks are basically ten-gallons. I'm doing the dollhouse version of enclosure building!
I love to see inky growing up where she belongs and love her new home and im laughing my behind off with your sillyness 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love it !
Black Dragon in a BAD ASS outdoor enclosure is a DREAM for us all
She looks like she found her spot on that log above her water feature behind her plant.
Beautiful.
That’s an Inky castle, as the princess deserves!
I live how the new enclosure came out and I'm sure Inky will too. Great job!
There she is hi inky thank you Kenan for showing her to us I love your lizard Kenan she is very beautiful and smart lizard I like her new home at your kamp hi matt and hi Kenan
Really enjoying the shows with you and Matt. Both of you have a fantastic sense of humour and the more time you spend together the funnier you are. 😅
Glad you enjoy it!
OMG! She slapped that chick out of your hand with a tail whip!!! Inky is the coolest little girl lizard there is!🤣😂🤣♥️
LOLOL!!! Inky came out of that log hissing and tail whipping! I love her so much 😂🤣
You and Matt are very creative when building enclosures for your animals. I took a 100 gallon Rubbermaid cattle tank and built an outdoor enclosure for my five lined skinks and my 2 American toads. I planted a bunch of strawberries and other plants like violets and creeping Charlie vines in the enclosure. Being in Maryland where it gets cold I have to use cold tolerant plants that go dormant in the winter and come back in the spring. It's awesome that you and Matt are such great friends and have common interests. My 14 year old nephew is interested in reptiles also and watches your videos. I've been watching for several years now and got the idea to set up an outdoor enclosure for my skinks from you. Ever since I've done that they have been breeding successfully for the past several years. I release a lot of their babies on my property in a rock pile. I can't keep them all. I particularly can't have too many males because they do fight sometimes.
Great job guys. It's so much cheaper doing this yourself. That water bowl/ pool are $370 in Australia. But well worth it 👌. The Australian monitors are crazy aspecially when your camping. They'll raid your camp groundd for food at night. Its amazing how you can tame down this gorgeous creature. It's men like Kennan who show us, how you can create a beautiful enclosure. For a lot cheaper than hiring a professional builder. That would cost a fortune. I've seen some massive Australian water monitors,they grow huge.
Well done Kenan and Matt! This is an epic enclosure.
The banter between you and Matt, I swear just gets better with age, just like miss Inky. You two are hilarious. 😂🤣 This made my evening. Welcome home Inks!
Feild of dreams is so much more than a baseball movie.
absolutely correct Brenda!
I think there is a screw slightly out in the hide box. LOVE the episode. Gives me great ideas when I am able to get more reptiles!
Every build gets better and better. So much fun.
With pathos they grow better and faster when they have something to climb on so that plant will be huge in no time. Can’t wait to see and update.
Wonderful video, loads of Inky action. Gorgeous cage👍thanks
Looks amazing. It really looks good guys great job! Im sure Inky will enjoy the new enclosure for long time
Really enjoy the videos Kenan. When Inky whipped the chick out of your hand, that was hilarious. Had to replay like 4 times 😂😂.
Wow Looks amazing best hide ever you two are way too funny ..love it love the cage looks amazing thanks so very much going to be nice and warm in there for sure woohoo inky went in thanks Kenan
Inkys' new digs came out great 👍
I really needed something light and easy to distract myself today. This was pleasantly helpful.
Hey kenan try using a utility blade that roofers use, it has a hook on the end , instead of a straight blade, cut shingles like butter 👌🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Lovely job, Inky is looking so happy now. Did anyone else notice the large frog? :-)
I really enjoy seeing you repurpose so many things. It really shows your creativity, and lets people know that they don't have to spend a ton of money to create a large and beautiful enclosure.
Great video! I'm glad you stuck with helping her find her hide box. The monitors are definitely my favorite.
Kenan, spray foam tip, clean the tube out with wd-40, or carb or brake cleaner. Anything like that will clean out all the foam so next time you use it the line will be clear
I loved this long episode, i really enjoy the longer videos you, Matt and Tom put out plus what Jerry and Tom do on his channel. Always informative, educational plus yourselves and Jerry always make it easy to understand for us who don't have reptiles but are trying to educate ourselves ready for a future new family member (even though some of us will not have the room for the bigger reptiles). You and Matt did a great job on Inky's new home. I made myself giggle just thinking of Inky of her log shouting out orders of what she wanted and where she wanted it. 😂 Lastly i promise I'd love to spend a day working with you and Matt, you both seem to have so much fun working together, you bounce off of each other when it comes to banter and your dynamics really work on camera. If you guys have this much on camera I'd love to see you both off camera, you must have a blast each and every time.
It's true, we do have a great time on and off camera. And yes Inky was speaking to us ordering the details of her enclosure telepathically lol!
These are my absolute favorite videos. I've been such a big fan for years now. Love what you guys do!
Just love her new enclosure. It just keeps getting better and better!
Thanks Deb!
Beautiful build inky deserves that your imagination for animals and there best life
Looks awesome. Once she gets used to it and you can be in there with her she´ll revert back to the calm Monitor she was when you got her. She´s beautiful.
Hello good morning Kenan and Matt, an oscillating tool will work perfectly and quickly to cut the universal rock, guaranteed fellows to cut your time by half or more. Give it a try, can pick one up at your local hardware store for about $30, if I were closer I would donate one to the camp, Unfortunately I am in the North.
Great build, Keep it up fellas!
Hello Kenan love how Inky enclosure came out watch the first video I love watching this type of videos very educational by the way can you use great stuff insulation spray foam to hold secure the wood together and cover the rest of the pole carve then paint to make blend in with the rest just an idea I love watching enclosures built gives me ideas when I’m building minds I’m working on 2 enclosures I built now getting the inside background finished 4x2x2
Like always wonderful videos can’t wait to get that notification Kamp Kenan uploaded a new video
Inky is going to love this new hide and her larger enclosure it will help with her building trust in you and she will tame down again. It worked so well with slinky and pinky. Pinky used to enjoy climbing all over you when you sat in that very enclosure way back then and we all know how much slinky tamed to you doing it this way. I can’t wait to see her climbing all over you in the future 🦎🐢🤗🫶🏻
Me too!
This gives me great idea. I need to upgrade my snake’s enclosure and making it underground (and closer to the under tank heater) will let me have a nice thick layer of bio active substrate.
I love all the work you did on her enclosure! These are such intelligent reptiles. Matt, you got some great shots today. The one with Inky behind the dripping water was great!! She looked so natural and the water was perfect. Keep up the good work you two!
Thank you for such an awesome channel, love seeing the reptiles in their natural environments. As will as seeing Kenan and Matt interact with each other, it makes my day 😄
Awesome cage. The only thing I don't like much is the pothos. I think it kinda obscures a lot of the place.
Kenan is the best lizard daddy on TH-cam ❤
I love building days. Inky is going to love her new home. She really has gotten big. I remember when she was just a little ink spot . Great job guys.
👌🏻👍🏻 COOL enclosure! Sara from South Africa🇿🇦
Cant believe Matt didnt notice the huge frog! He's usually an eagle eye 🤣💜🦖
Yes! Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed the big ol frog climbing the cage lol
@@higoodbye7545 haha, yeah I pointed and yelled at them like they could hear me 😂😂
I keep chain hangers from Dollar Tree around and the wire hangers from old broken hanging planters of spring plants I buy. So I don't need that to add to places I need to hide.😊
I'm no expert so my recommendations are just another idea that COULD WORK.... the tube you foamed into the box works fine but for future heres another idea before foaming.... stick the tube through the hole and cut 3 or 4 slices in the end about 2 inches long and bend them over like a flange so you can screw them into the inside of the box them foam if you want but the tube WILL NEVER COME OUT OR OFF! BEAUTIFUL HOME FOR INKY
Kenan, pothos vines are better climbers than they are hangers, plant it in the ground and let it grow up the faux wood! Hope this helps
Kenan, no shame intended, but you could use some more tutoring from Jerry specifically on fastener use. A deck screw, after you drilled the post with the self tapping screw, will bite into wood with its non-drilling tip much better. Its better with wood to squeeze the wood between two end points, like a carriage bolt, than to rely on the screw threads to maintain hold through shrink and swell cycles. Screws will last for a number of years dont get me wrong, but deck support beams are bolted rather than screwed for this reason. The pothos wants to grow up plant it in the ground and stuff some palm trunk pieces or yucca roots into the crevices of the center post so it holds some water. The pothos will set anchor roots into the yucca/palm and grow bigger leaves as it climbs.
Think we need to get Mr Kenan a hole saw
use a little waterfall foam around those rocks around the entrance tube, keep em stable yet easy to remove if necessary
great job on that enclosure, would be a bit weary about that screws going threw the top of the hide and the tip could hurt her. ;)
Even though it was simple, what a great transformation of the enclosure. Great and well needed upgrade. I enjoyed watching you two. The enclosure looks as natural as it can be. Amazing! Inky is so lucky
Should try pair slinky with one of your friends big female water monitor
Kenan, you should team up with Custome Cages, or some other reptile enclosure company, and design some enclosures for them, they can call them the Kenena edition enclosures. they'd probably sell like hotcakes.
AMAZING ! This enclosure is letting Inky turbocharge her socialization , that central pole looks beautiful with the Aquascape fake wood. Also, thanks for the mention of Steve Jobs... His creations have been my portal to the globe ever since my first computer about 30 years ago. This installation is a huge gift you 3 are giving to each other and to each of us. This is a true Paradise for Inky and we will have so many amazing videos watching her grow up....Great Work Guys !
You're thoughts always nail it perfectly Sally, thanks.
🙏@@KampKenan
This enclosure is probably my second favourite next to Slinkys (clearly!).. shes looking amazing..think her and my Genghis are about same size now.. what age is she now?? Great job, my reptile Brother.much love and respect to you
Very nice recycelt enclosure. Love Inky❤ Wishes from my egyptian farm 🎉
There was a cane toad in there at 12:07 on the right. Be sure to get that out I don’t want Inky to eat it‼️
Lol Kenan says 'Matt keep the camera still'.... Matt keeps the camera still for 30 seconds 😆
You could use tree moss in between the logs that will hide the green bar and make it like natural just like the trees in the woods and you could get air plants and put them in the moss to they look so natural
It surprises me how they can fit thru tiny openings…..like Slinky’s hole to his hut. I am so envious of people that can keep their reptiles 24/7 outside and in the sunshine and fresh air! Kenan is spicey today🤣🤣🤣 I would use the stump to sit on and hang out in there.
How much coffee did you good have before filming this? 😅😅
Love you and all the four-legged babies.
haha, I don't drink coffee believe it or not!
Crazy, I know, but Kenan swears he "does not drink Coffee" ! Impressive ... and also kind'a scary !
Nice upgrade for lil Miss midnight dragon. I would try using tin snips, jig saw, or a sawsall on the faux rock stuff (or a Dremel).
My favorite days are the ones that start with Kenan! Sweatshirts yet?? 🙏🏻
The new secret store will be revealed to Patreon and KK members this week Maryann. I think you will be very very happy! :)
New to the channel, so happy i found it! Great content and very envious of the animals and enclosures. Happy herping
Hey Kenan, at 11:40.. there is a HUGE frog in the top corner of the cage behind you! 😂 it moves at 12:35. I paused to leave this comment.. so maybe you find it at some point in this video.. if not, hopefully that isn’t a toxic creature, assuming she will eventually find it herself!
It’s an invasive Cuban Treefrog (not-toxic.)
She whipped that chick right out of your hand! Indiana Jones-level skill! LOL
u should put tiny holes in the bottom box, when rain pours it will not flood inside and put risk electrifying this beautiful reptile.
What a great job, that enclosure is absolutely beautiful - Inky's a lucky gal for sure!! 👍
Hey Keenan. You and Matt ain't right. Ya'll make a great team. Also Matt my wife and myself was in Cancun, Mexico in 2013 and we saw all kinds of big Iguanas. So I know what you are saying. Man they were big and gorgeous.
favorite way to start my sunday morning is waking up to a new kamp kenan video!! gonna sit back relax and see what you have in store for us today have a wonderful day kampers!! 🦎💚
Good morning! Enjoy!!
That enclosure is awesome!
I've always thought I'd have some reptiles of my own one day, once I was done working overseas, but I've recently been diagnosed with some serious medical crap with no real positive prognosis (at least not yet but 🤞🏻) ... so you're videos will have to continue to reptile fix 😂
I am so sorry.... but I am also so grateful that there is a Kamp Kenan out there for those of us who need the vicarious way to enjoy these critters. 💚
I really enjoyed watching you fix up her cage. ❤❤ I can’t wait to see more from you. Your Arnold imitation is spot on I loved it 🥰😁
you two sound like a married couple sometimes.I LOVE YOU TWO
Inkys new hidey hole and habitat, reminds me of pinky’s old one when she was younger. And it was out with the snow leopards torts.. Dang how long ago was that Kenan?
I think the universal rock panel would be quite easy to cut with a multitool. It would be just like cutting a cast off.
"Today, on Tool-Time Kenan...!"
...Matt laughs insolently at Kenan and earns a demerit and additional training...
*Get the whip* 😮 😂
Kamp Kenan taking You-TUBE very literally in this episode!
Beautiful enclosure 💗 ... except whenever I see Kenan using a kitchen knife to cut things, I always wonder what Kate thinks about that?? Bahahaha 💗😘🦎 But tbh, Chris at Garden State Tortoise has mentioned a good knife he uses. You may want to ask him about it? Also, what about making an Amazon wish list?
Couldn’t ask for a safer form of nature for her. Looks amazing.
Great video .. have really enjoyed the new Inky cage build .. You can see the enjoyment you get building your animals the most natural habitat you can to keep them happy
It looking so great
25:05 Your Arnie impression is great 👏
The enclosure is sick. you should use a reciprocating saw " sawzall " to cut universal rock instead of a knife it would save you a ton of time :)
You both make me laugh. Your a great comedy duo. Here in Northern Ireland we would call you an Eejit lol. Enclosure looks fab
I think I will adopt that spelling !!!
I love the cage and the box. But, I can't believe you haven't seen Field of Dreams. It's not a baseball movie. It loosely wraps the movie around baseball lore. But, it isn't a baseball movie. You don't have to know anything about baseball and you're still going to easily understand and love this movie. Just watch it.
They make tin snips that can be used on an impact/drill that would make cutting that universal rock easier. $60 at home depot or spring for a little extra and get the ryobi offset shears
I feel like that's the same hide box setup Kenan had when Pinky lived at the Kamp...
