Don't forget to answer the QUESTION OF THE DAY! Than you to all my Reptiliatus Patrons for making videos like this possible www.patreon.com/Reptiliatus !
We're do you get your silk worms???
@@getateuproundhere8491 I purchase them from a pet shop in Ontario, Canada.
@@Reptiliatus do they ship
@@getateuproundhere8491 if you are based in Canada; yes :). They are Port Credit Pets Center. They have a wide range of available feeder insects and can pretty much ship to anywhere in Canada!
@@Reptiliatus na I'm in Texas haha but wish I could get my hand on some silk worms haha guess grasshoppers for now will do from time to time
When I was pregnant with my daughter, I was so sick most mornings I couldn’t get out of bed, so I would watch your videos in the morning. Now, my 3 year old asks to watch you everyday, specifically your “tuttles”. Thank you for putting out content that inspires my little one ♥️
Wow this comment is so touching! Thank you kindly! 😊🙏🏼 sending warm regards to you and your family! Thank you so much for your support!
I love Reptiliatus days! Not only because of your beautiful pets, but because the warmth and respect you feel for them is palpable and the trust they give to you in return is obvious. You help me heal from the chaos. 😁👍❤
You worded this soo well!! Totally agree.
Agree 100%
Thank you so much! I’m so touched by this comment and will continue to work my best to uphold this standard you hold me to! 😊🙏🏼
I really appreciate your support and viewership more than you know!
I totally agree
Gotta love the man
"here comes the boyyyy~💕" and omg my heart melted
Hahaha thanks! I was hoping someone would eventually appreciate that! 😅
Dayyan, the passionate way you talk about the silk worms made me want to change my diet!!! (Maybe not. I guess I'm still not ready...)
Hahaha I don’t eat them either 😅.
What a Beautiful sample of the adorable creatures we would all love to own. I love how you talk to each one of them, don’t just toss the bugs in and walk away. Feeding time is the top of the socialization routine. Also gives opportunity to do a wellness check. Never rush through this opportunity , if you don’t have to. I love the little red eyed Toothless.
After hearing about the nutritional value of silkworms I've started the silkworm diet of eating 20 of these bad boys a day, wish me luck
Good luck! Lots of people eat the pupae actually! 💪🏼
The Chinese lizard would be awesome to see more of and lean more about. Absolutely beautiful
I'm telling Tiki that you love Sabzi more 😂
Don’t! Hahaha 😅
And then you show us your velociraptor. What an amazing collection of reptiles you have
Haha thank you so much 🦖✨
QOTD-
I would have to go with a boa of some sort. Probably a Kahl Albino Hypo Jungle. I don't have one, of course. But it would be a sweet snake to have for the rest of my life
Lovely! 🐍
The look of those turtle's eyes looks so cute.
Haha he’s adorable isn’t he? 👀🐢
Angel my savannah monitor! So smart & very rewarding work to gain/maintain trust in our relationship! 🦖✨🖤
Wonderful! She sounds so great!
QOTD = Definitely my 10 year old dog Stevie.
I have 3 dogs, 1 cat, 4 snakes, 2 scorps, 1 leopard gecko, snails, a few aquariums. And I wouldn't ever want to be limited by having only one pet and not being able to enjoy keeping others. But I've had her the longest and if such a thing exists, we are kindred souls. I do hope age keeps its negatives at bay with her for a few more years at least.
This is very sweet! I completely understand. Although the question was for reptiles 😉, I get where you are coming from! I absolutely love my family dog Remi and he means so much to me! 🐕🦺
@@Reptiliatus I don't know how I missed the reptile part. Apparently the dog just trumps brain thought too.
To answer the question properly then, I'd have to go with my pastel lesser ball python. He's my most interactive snake, and from about 5pm until I go to bed he always pops out of his hide and just watches the rest of us do whatever we are doing every evening.
Love those silkworms! Mmmmmmm..🙂💯❤🦎🤗🐛🦖🐍👏🦁🐊🍀🐆🐊🦧🦊🐈🦥👏🐢👍👏👏😊
Yum yum! 😊🐛🦎
ITS THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE MONTH! You've cornered the market on silkworm feeding videos, it's yo thang AND it's actually the first type of video of yours ever recommended to me and what made start watching your channel almost a year ago. I love the sky puppies and their squishy babies!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m so happy you stumbled across my content and that you enjoy my videos 😊🙏🏼
I'm actually getting a Moroccan uromastyx soon. Ever since I first saw one in a zoo I wanted to have one. I saw it straight face to face and my first thought was "that is a dragon right there." A docile, long lived, vegetarian lizard perfect for a first time reptile owner. I'll be naming him Glaurung (gl-ow, as in ow pain, rung) cause I'm a lord of the rings nerd. So Glaurung would be my choice for a reptile to have with me for all that time.
I did not know that so many animals could be fed silk worms and I did not know that you had such a lovely vibrant family! Extremely beautiful AND VERY HEALTHY! ❤🥰😍🌸!PS I love the mister system. It sprays so fine.
The eyes of the crocodile skinks are beautiful!!! Some messy reptiles today!!
As answer to your qotd is going to be controversial but I'd keep my brothers old savannah monitor Abe he was the kindest lil fella would sleep on your chest for hours he was so loving and full of character!!! His enclosure was hugeeeee and awesome I was 13 when he had Abe!
That turtle has the funniest face. Ha. Always shocked. 🥰 Great sounds effects too. 😁
Die On you a real one with all your content. Literally I couldn't get the lizards I've gotten so far without your videos making me excited enough to grab them. And it's nice seeing this on feeding day for my lil buddies 💪💪💪
Your enclosures are gorgeous. I want you to make a human-sized and closure for me.😚
Thank you so much! Haha🌿🌿🌿
I would keep my redfoot tortoise Hiccup for the rest of my life. As a matter of fact, there is a good chance she will out live me so I guess she's the one!
So sweet! 🐢✨
Your videos have a big calming effect on me, similar to when i watch my reptiles/invertebrates, this is so cool to feel. Also it's inspiring me to do beautiful naturalistic enclosures for them someday! I love all the details you put in the videos - close-ups, different angles, animal's skin textures, it's my favourite.
Thank you much for the sweet compliments! I’m so happy you enjoyed the video and appreciated the little things! 😊🙏🏼
Oh my goodness that first little lizard ufed is adorable. She does look just like a dragon. What is the name of that animal?
Thank you! I actually list every species in the description with Latin name and time stamp in the video (fyi) 😊
Serrapeptase was a literal life changer for me. I suffered from a painful condition called DIE Endometriosis.
Thankful for silkworms!
Great video.
Definitely would keep my ball python named Yabo. She's so so so special and if I could have her stay with me for the rest of my life, I'd be so happy(;
Lovely! 🐍
*Worm gets its torso ripped from its bowels*
“LEMME TELL YOU ABOUT HELLO FRESH”
Love the new editing!
I'd keep a chuckwalla if I could only have one reptile. I haven't owned one yet, but I've wanted one for almost 7 years and am only just now capable of having the space, time and money for one right when captive bred juevuniles are freakin' rare! Got some serious networking to do. Fun times! 😂🥴
Don't give up the dream. I waited 20+ years to get my Sav monitor. Glad I did because so much info was wrong back then. Loved my monitor several years.
@@k.l.manring2083 Oh neat, Savannahs are so dang cool. My friends' have one and I love hanging out with her so I totally get why you'd wait it out!
The husbandry issues of the past is such a great point, chuckies for a long time were being plucked from the wild so often for the pet trade. I appreciate their loss in favor over the years for that very reason at least.
One helped me through a really rough time, I was close to offing myself back then but was out in the wild rockhounding to fix my mood in Nevada. He literally walked over and hung out where I was sitting. I fed him some big unreachable flowers from the shrub he was eating off of. Sat there for 2 hours with the dude! He wasn't keen for me picking him up but he'd crawl on my lap to rest at least and let me pet him here and there. One of the coolest wild animal experiences!
Answer to which reptile I'd keep for my life if it lived as long as I do? The Argentine Black and White tegu. 'Nuff said.
That tortoise is like "FOOOOOOOOD GIVE IT TO MEEEEE HUMAAAAN!!!
Excuse me Turtle, didnt realize that you had the list of reptiles in the description
Haha no problem at all! It can be a little confusing but yes, he is a turtle! Thank you so much for watching!
So, I just recently started watching your channel, and I have to say, it’s some amazing work you put in here everyday. I wanted to ask where I could get a Green Tree Monitor, and what you would recommend for a new owner. I recently had a Susan Plated Lizard. She was great and all, but died two months ago unfortunately. I have some insight on how to care for a lizard, but I know with different species there are different things to put attention too and look at.
If I could only have one reptile for the rest of my life I think I would choose gargoyles. I love ALL animals, but geckos in particular are my favorite. It’s really difficult to choose between tokays and gargoyles but I think I’d choose gargoyles because they have such a special place in my heart, I love them so so much and they’re so stinkin cute! It’s hard to respect their boundaries sometimes because I just wanna cuddle and kiss them! I don’t have enough experience and knowledge to own a tokay yet but I’d imagine I wouldn’t necessarily wanna kiss them haha. Your tokays seem like sweethearts but you’ve obviously put SO much work into that, but when I think of an average tokay I think of cuteness but also DANGER hahaha
Sounds to me like you have very good/sentimental reasons for choosing your gargoyle gecko(s)! What’s most important is what’s in your mind and heart so great choice 😊!
I only have 2 reptiles & I cant imagine having to pick! I would say my ball python, but I recently got my son a crested gecko & I have fell in love with the little guy!! So I guess I would choose my ball python since technically he is mine & the crested gecko is my sons. But I couldn't imagine you having to choose! Guess we can just be thankful for the moments we do get to spend with our pets!💚
Hi Dayyan. You DID do an excellent job with today's or yesterdays video. I loved all of the close ups. And the messy eating is pretty cool as well. For the QOTD: I'd have to choose a bird if that's ok? I'd choose the Kea from New Zealand. They are so curious and inquisitive. They will go up to people just to see what they are up to. They love to use tools to figure out how something works. They are pretty awesome Little guys. Or maybe a squirrel. Who could hate a squirrel as your life long love?
For me it would be my Argentine Black and White Tegu Damascus. I have a good amount of reptiles I love them all, but there is just something about him that made him special. He will crawl into bed with me of his own volition and just snuggle me for hours. He will accept head and chin pats for the most part, but when he has enough he will simply shake his head. I've been away from him for a while, but when my wife visited me and went back home he broke out of his enclosure and snuck into her travel bag to get in with the clothes that had my scent. It's crazy but he actually shows signs of missing his human. No I'm not anothropomorphizing anything I worked as a tech went to school for animal medicine... in this reptiles behavior it's just what I have observed almost like how a chick imprints on the first thing they see. Anyways I love my giant lizard and feel like we have so much to learn aside from what zoologist and biologists have observed since in captivity we as owners get to learn so much and understand more since in some cases we are that extra socialization for some species that are more social.
Glad you are doing a bit better and taking care^^
I would have a green tree monitor for the rest of my life they look really cool have a fun diet and it is a nice challenge to tame one down.
I absolutely love these lizards, and am planning on getting them sometime in the future. Besides the obvious things, like food, water, hiding spots etc, are there any more lesser know things to get for these lizards, whether necessities or just should haves that you know of? And this question goes out to anybody who has or knows a lot about them.
Out of all my reptiles I would pick my bearded dragon with special needs, shaky. He is just so personable and loving. 😁
If I could only have 1 reptile it'd be a Texas rat snake, it was the first one I caught as a kid and they're literally awesome, I have a leucitic one now, I'm not sure what morph id go with though hmm. thoughts?
Hi! Great video, good luck to you and your animals! You have a very cool collection☺️
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I would live with Sabzi too lol
Haha 😊
Ooo juicy! Lol love the new vid style! Holy closeups Batman! feel like I’m watching David Attenborough in the BBC World Series (funny sound effects) fun editing!
Those Shinis make me feel like I’m watching Jurassic park 😍 they’re all so gorgeous! Even ET! Lol
QOTD: I think I’d keep my beardie Gizmo, he’s my first and my spikey cuddlebum 🥰
Such a wonderful video! You have such a beautiful bond with your animals
Are we doing the whole "birds are actually reptiles" thing with the question of the day? Because having a pet African Gray Parrot again would be amazing.
If we're talking non-avian reptiles though, I'm going to have to go with some kind of monitor lizard, or maybe a tegu. If I could only have one scale-baby, I would want something really intelligent and interactive that enjoyed my company back.
Glad u feeling better I lost my taste and smell about 3 to 4 months when I had covid God bless u thanx for an AWESOME VIDEO!!!!I I wud want my bearded dragon to live with me cuss he too is personable I just love that boy (THOR)
Thank you so much Dana! Omgsh that’s so long! I lost my smell and taste for about 7-10 days and it slowly started to come back for me. It was so weird during but I’ll so thankful it’s not gone anymore 😅! Thank you so much 🙏🏼! I’m so touched you enjoy my videos! Your beardie sounds like a great choice 🦎✨!
Can you do a silkworm care/silk moth breeding video??
As soon as I’ve actually completed the full cycle by hatching and raising the eggs I got last year, I will. :)
If I could have only one reptile or amphibian, it would my ackie monitor Kobold. He keeps asking to be let out, climbs on my lap and chills there. I don't think I have so much lap time even with my cats!
Great video great feeling reptile 🦎 reptile room
Thank you! Hope you like it!
Your Chinese water dragon are so amazing and cool I love them great job taking care of them and great job on the sponsor even tho I’m not surprised.
Thank you so much! Haha these are actually Chinese crocodile lizards! Quite different from Chinese water dragons! Just so you know 😊. Thank you so much for your kind words and support! 🙏🏼
I love the tokays!
Me too! 😊🦎
Great video to wake up to here in the uk 🇬🇧 😀
Thanks so much! I’m thrilled you enjoyed it!
QOTD: something on the social side. If they’re gonna be with me my whole life I want a relationship! Hard to choose, but maybe a dwarf retic? They’re smart and cute and curious and a reasonable size. A Sabzi or a tegu or something would be great but also a lot of work for the rest of my life… maintaining the humidity in my old age might be rough 😆
If I could only own one of my reptiles it would probably be tiny my super red harlequin crested gecko because he is my first reptile and he is very handleable and can you feed leopard geckos silk worms
That’s very sweet and sentimental! Makes sense! Thank you for sharing!
Good thing silkworms are so nutritious because boy are they messy...to house and feed (I have some aggressive eaters too). But of course it's all worth it for our scaly friends. Regarding the QOTD if I'm looking at the scaly animals I have I'd have to go with my crested/chahoua gecko hybrid. He might not be that smart but he is so sweet and inquisitive. Even my mom who isn't big on reptiles loves him 😊
Your close-up shots are almost 3D. What beautiful animals you've got
Thank you! I try super hard to get good shots for you guys!
Love your content your animals are in such good health I know it’s such hard work!!!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! 😊🙏🏼
Would you be able to do a silk worm care guide, I tried to raise some to moths for my own breeding collection but failed
I would keep my bearded dragon Thorn she’s currently 11 years old, she’s the perfect mix of being really chilled and when she’s out on floor time really active and loves to explore. We have been through so much together in the last 11 years :)
Can you please make a crested gecko video i really liked that videos
My bearded dragon! Cause I love her so much.. And she hugs me and cuddles all night when she sleeps with me.
Very sweet!
Have to be my new green tree monitor
How exciting! I clearly can relate! 😊
Hi i love your videos especially the Red eyed crock skink videos what temperatures are you keeping them at i am trying to aim for 80 degrees and 75-80% humidity i am trying to learn some tricks from you because you are a big inspiration to me thank you for your help
Hi! Just wondering do you have a video oh raising/caring for silkworms?
Thanks!
Super sick this series on your mini dragons is making me want a setup! Is it true they live better in colonies? And should i source from a reptile show or can you assist?
I love Kiki, so cute❤️I love these lizard feeding videos the most I think. Thank you so much for sharing ur pets with us.👍🏻👏🏼👵🏻🇺🇸
Haha thank you so much Grandma Kirk! I appreciate your support so much! Just so you know that geckos name is actually Tiki! Tiki sounds very similar to Kiki so I thought I should just mention it. Many people mishear that as well 😊. Have a lovely week and thank you for watching and commenting. Means a lot
@@Reptiliatus thank you ,from now on I’ll know his name is Tiki.🤣
Beautiful video.
Thank you!
If I had to keep 1 would be Mali Uromastyx. Great feeding video.
So sweet! That’s an amazing species!
Love the video and the all the animals , those silkworms got rocked though. If I could keep one reptile for the rest of my life it would probably be some sort of monitor or snake I feel like they have such good personalities
So I got my crested gecko in January and he's still not eating everyday and he's only
two/three inches long is that normal?
I would keep my rhino iguana. She’s so nice and wants to be involved in everything I’m doing
So envious! Those are amazing animals! Unfortunately we cannot own them in Canada!
@@Reptiliatus I did not know that. That sucks. I honestly think they’re the best reptile ever. Do you guys have an organization similar to USARK that’s Trying to change laws for the hobby?
My cresties sadly won't eat silkworms. Maybe my croc skink will but not got him eating of tongues yet.
Heyo great vid! What is that paste you're using as a gutload? Did you blend up veggies into a paste? Id love to know what you used and any gutload tips you may have!
Thanks so much! It’s actually silkworm chow! My understanding is besides a gelling agent, it’s mostly just dried and ground mulberry leaves. That’s all silkworms eat btw, so either you feed them the prepared chow food like this or feed them fresh mulberry leaves off a tree if you can (better/easier option in my opinion but not possible in the winter).
@@Reptiliatus Thank you for the info! I was just thinking perhaps if the veggies I use for my feeders was ground into a paste, perhaps with a gelling agent like they use in that then it could last longer and be more nutrious. Since it would be easier to feed a blend of veggies (: however without a preservative it would probably still spoil quickly haha
Fearless Monitor because they are one of the first monitor Species. Also because I can't have one 😭😭. Unless I get a zoo license. 😁
Why don’t you have emerald green tree skinks? They seem like such great little lizards
Cool video
Thank you!
What kind of turtle is that? I love him!
QOTD: probably an argentine tegu, i likely wont get one due to space req. but w only one reptile then they could have the whole reptile room to themselves
That’s a great idea! They are so much fun and are very interactive!
Is there a way you can show what you use for gutloading
I love all your children. xo
QUESTION OF THE DAY: I would keep a Phelsuma Grandis (Big Madagaskar Daygecko)
Lovely! 🦎✨
ik its out of topic but i got my first crested gecko probably 1 week ago and his legs arent sticky. i just wanna ask for some tips how to help him get sticky again
yaahhh 😍
😊🦎🐛
O God what a question mmmm green tree monitor
Do you raise your own silkworms and if so, is that as many as you produce in a month? Asking because I'm interested in sericulture some time this year.
Basil is metal when it comes to eating silk worms \m/
Do you also feed silkworms to your tarantulas? Do you feed your pets silkworms along with crickets or is the main feeder source silkworms?
Yes I do! Tarantulas usually love them and they are just as healthy for them!
@@Reptiliatus thanks! Is this the main feeder source for your T’s or do you also feed crickets? I ask because as you know, crickets are expensive, the die within a week, and are super smelly lol
Thank you for your reply! I totally love your videos and I’m sure you know, you some beautiful pets
Hey Reptiliatus, could you tell me what kind/species is turtle in 8:40 min. of your film?
Yo! D! Just wondering, are you missing your phants?
Thank you.
Thank you!
Is Sazbi full sized, if not when will she be full grown?
She’s not full grown yet but pretty close. She won’t grow much bigger. She’ll max out around 3.5 ft (lots of tail more than anything haha).
Lovin the music bro! Don't listen to the haters
On a side note, are silkworms good for tarantulas? Lime would the protein or calcium content be too much for them?
Thanks for the input! Yes, they are great for them! They enjoy them and can greatly benefit from the nutrients they offer just as much as our reptile pets can! 😊
@@Reptiliatus awesome dude! Keep making amazeballs content!!
Ok, time to finish the rest of the vid
Thanks so much for your support! Hope you liked it!
where do you get your silkworms??
I purchase them from a pet shop in Ontario, Canada 🐛😊
Where do you get your silkworms? I struggle to find them.
I’ve been buying them from a local pet shop in Ontario :).
Can I feed my reptiles a main diet of silk worms or have them as more of a treat than main food?
It should be a treat
I have only 1 reptile so I'd keep my leopard gecko.
Very nice! I appreciate your commitment to your beloved pet! 🦎✨
I would like to have An Asian water monitor. But then I would like to have whatever that cute little lizard was that you fed first. I can't decide. I would also love a green tree monitor. I would like a black throat monitor. I would like a Croc monitor. I would pick any monitor I could get. Or at least a Tegu.
Do you breed silkworms by yourself?
Black Troath Monitor. There Big very tame luck nice and to feed them is so nice
They are amazing lizards! Great choice!
@@Reptiliatus When comes the Green Tree Monitor Vivarium Update?
@@K.S.A_privat I’ve been talking to custom reptile habitats about our custom enclosure and they informed me there have been some Covid staffing related delayed but they are soon going to be constructing Sabzi and Basils enclosure. Once completed they will send it over and I’ll have to film the building process, etc! I’m very excited!
@@Reptiliatus Ok, nice and thank for the information.
The question of the day is impossible 😭
Tell me about it! That’s how I feel when people ask me 😅!
