May Sabzi and Basil, in their own good time, repay all your care with generations of beautiful, thriving hatchlings. There need to be more of these wonderful animals in the world and you are helping it happen.
That was totally worth the wait. What an amazing end result. Nothing is better than building large environments within your own home. This is what the hobby is all about. The blending of the cork and using it to mask where you connected the branches was brilliant. Well done my friend, well done. ❤
That enclosure is magnificent!! I remember when you got sabzi and basil, their journey thus far has been amazing. Mr B has come such a long way which is a testament to your care and effort. I love hearing how excited you get when you discover new behaviors now that they are in a more natural and conducive environment. Thank you for bringing us along on this journey with you 💜
Thoroughly enjoyed watching from start to finish! You did a superb job, as always. Sabzi and Basil are so blessed to have you looking after them like you do.
WOW! Ok, I have two 4x2x2 Evolution enclosures from Custom Reptile Habitats. Pictures and video don’t do the size justice so…WOW! Sabzi & Basil’s enclosure(s) is HUGE! I’ve been waiting for this video and it does NOT disappoint! I have tears of happiness for them as I’m watching them in their new digs. Beautiful, just beautiful! 🦎❤️🦎
Dayyan, hope you read this but I remember about 4 years ago on the 29th of February, 2020; it was a gecko feeding video. I commented on that video that I noticed an emerald monitor book and asked you about it. Ever since that day, I have been WAITING for this exact video.... Four years later, and you have DELIVERED. I remember when you got Sabz in as a tiny little baby.😭 Haven't been in the best of spaces, but the upload of this video just made me feel so sentimental and nostalgic. It sounds like such a trivial thing, but honestly THANK you Dayyan for your content... Your channel is one of those that helped me keep my passions alive. Can't wait for more Sabzi and Basil content!
Hi Tristan, thank you so much for this thoughtful comment! You are so observant and considerate! I’m sorry that things have been difficult for you lately! For what it’s worth, I know the feeling. It makes me happy to know that my content helps! Thank you so much for your continued support over years! Warm regards
I’m bingeing your enclosure videos in the background while building an ackie enclosure. I’ve always dreamt of having a monitor and now when it’s finally time I’m going all out. It really inspires me to think of all the fun details, watching all your videos ❤
The reward of seeing your animal’s natural behaviors as a result of keeping them in the best possible, most naturalist enclosure is the MOST rewarding part keeping reptiles for me. This enclosure does a great job achieving that. And go Dr. Alex Brown!!!!!
Thanks so much, bro! That means so much coming from YOU! Everyone reading this, if you haven’t already, you absolutely need to checkout and follow Brad’s channel! 🙌🏼
What beautiful new homes you built for Sabzi and Basil!! I'd never be in front of another screen. I'd want to just sit and watch them!! Great job Dayyan!!
This was totally worth the wait! I found your channel while researching green tree monitors, and seeing this enclosure is so inspiring for how ill eventually set mine up. The divider and tunnel is genius! Can't wait to see when they finally get to meet each other 😊
Thank you so much! I'm so appreciative of your continued support! I'm happy you learned lots (I've been learning lots in practice, myself 😅)! Right?! So fascinating! Can't wait to see what else they'll do next!
it makes me so happy to see this enclosure finished, it looks so good!! im also so excited that you fixed the error i see in so many monitor enclosures by making 3 sides completely accessible to them with the cork! congratulations on this huge project being done, i can't wait to see how they grow in, and what you do with those two left over exo terras :)!!
Thank you so much! That really means a lot! I know there will be lots of learning, growing and improvements to ID and make as time goes by and they live in here but that’s the beauty of the hobby! Haha, yes those tanks are going to be repurposed for upgrades for existing pets!
Absolutely incredible build collab and animals. Well done 👍 and very cool take on using non supported branches and climbing opportunities in order to force more physicality and muscle development. Very cool!!
There always such an amazing joy when you get to upgrade your reptiles into new enclosures watching them grow and being able to build them beautiful big homes I just truly find it as pure happiness
You've done such a good job, it looks gorgeous and they are clearly loving and thriving in their new home 😊 I am currently working on a huge 6ft by 6ft by 3ft enclosure for my Ackie Monitor, its been far more work than I anticipated but I truly cannot wait to see him in the new space. Monitors are so deserving of as much space and enrichment we can offer them 💜
Thank you so much! This means a lot! Wow, that'll be such a nice build! Haha, yes these builds always are more work than we expect but its totally worth it!
Dayyan, I don't know HOW ya do it, but you keep 'besting' every video you make. I learned a bunch of new stuff...even about your monitors! Hanging upside-down clearly is not uncomfortable for those with a prehensile tail! And doing so in the 'rain' to easily drink is pretty clever, no? What fun the new vid is!!! Thanks for sharing. It WAS worth the wait.
Had to leave a comment and say this is awesome, you did amazing and I'm so stoked on your two lovely lizards. The vivarium looks amazing, I'm sure it took a ton of hours to get it looking amazing. I'm so excited to see the future of the project!
Beautiful setups! This is a ‘similar’ journey to what I’m on, upgrading and improving over buying new and chasing that new animal high! That’s not to say I haven’t got plans and ideas, but for the meantime, it’s all about upgrading and improving. Love these setups dude, incredible stuff. Prasinus is my #1 dream species
You are too kind! I have so much to learn and improve on! I try my best and continue to learn and improve day to day! That’s what it’s all about but I’m touched by your compliment 🙏🏼! Thanks for watching!
Amazing way to start my day thank you dayyan, you’ve inspired me so much as not just as a reptile and amphibian keeper but as a person overall, and for that my friend you have my thanks 🙏🏽❤️
Nice enclosure, though I would add much more leaf litter until its a really thick layer and you will have to dig to get to the substrate, it will just as the tropical environment.
I have seen bird's nest plants in the wild and oh boy do they get massive! Like, an adult human could easily sit in the center of some of those Tabacon. If you want to simulate their natural environment even better, you can allow those big funnel shaped leaves to do their job and collect some leaf litter. In the wild the falling leaves from trees will get caught by the big leaves of the tabacon where they form this big compost pile in the center of the air plant. The Tabacon's roots will then grow into the center of that pile to access the nitrogen being released through the decomposition. Thanks for the great video. your lizards look so happy!
The video doesn't show justice to what time and cost this enclosure took to come into fruituon. You did an excellent job and I'm sure they are absolutely loving it 😊❤
You know what- I have a corky bark tabebuia tree, which the birds and squirrels love! I started adding logs and branching ramps all around the tree and then the agama lizards came! So I added more! I’m going to add rocks and sand around the base of this lizard playground soon. An agama colony comes and goes from this tree- a large male, 3-4 females and a few tiny babies! It’s great! Then I added logs around the planting beds with occasional vertical logs. The anoles and agamas are everywhere now! Paradise! It’s all in the logs!
Love that enclosure it’s going to be amazing how they interact with that little tunnel. My bad on the previous comment it was meant for another video but the app has been acting funky lately
Great work, super habitat! Still, the pronunciation of the name Basil, as in Basil Fawlty, is hilarious! You are speaking English, but not the Queens (Now Kings) original haha... All the best, looks fantastic!
This two reptiles are the main reason why I'm following the channel, your first video was the first one you've shooted with Sabzi, and daaaaamn I really want to have one tree monitor tooo... Sad fact: in Italy the law forbids keeping monitors T_T
Not having a drainage layer in a bioactive setup is not recommended but can be done in the right circumstances. However not having a drain in a setup that has a misting system that will spray daily, is probably a mistake. Particularly in a cage with wall panels made of this kind of material. Hopefully you don't but I'm guessing you will have problems with leaking and then mold. If those panels will absorb stain similar to wood, I would guess it will absorb water similar to wood and probably mold like wood. I'm very interested in how this cage looks in 6-12 months from now.
May Sabzi and Basil, in their own good time, repay all your care with generations of beautiful, thriving hatchlings. There need to be more of these wonderful animals in the world and you are helping it happen.
Thank you so much! No pressure from them but that would be wonderful when the time is right! We shall see how things go! 😊
@@Reptiliatuswhere is the cork tile from?

Thank you! They are smart cookies! They need the mental stimulation!

Thanks brother! You know better than most how much time and effort went into this thing 😂! So glad it’s done and I can share it with everyone! 🙏🏼
What a treat! Their new enclosure is very special and amazing how you set it up! Can't wait until they're together.
Thank you so much! I’m really looking forward to sharing that with you all!

Thank you! I have a lot of neat plans in the works!
I love the way he works with a vet to make everything perfect ❤
Such a powerful reminder that improving conditions can be even more rewarding then adding more to your collection 💯
This specific species is by far my favorite in the world! I sometimes wish I lived somewhere monitor lizards were legal to own 😢
Absolutely incredible build collab and animals. Well done 👍 and very cool take on using non supported branches and climbing opportunities in order to force more physicality and muscle development. Very cool!!
The enclosure is absolutely beautiful! You did a really great job!
Awesome build, man. You don't always see zoo enclosures that are that natural looking. Well done!

Great job my CFCwould love those vines can you tell me where u got them
Thank you! I got them from a company called Jurassic pet
This is a lot of work but it looks so good!
Would it have been easier to stain it before assembly?
What misting system do you use? We use one but it doesn't work that well but yours works really well!
I just finished watching the scorpion video, I was very sad to see there was nothing else new to watch- perfect timing :)
