Hi everybody! Thank you so much for watching! Many of you have expressed interest in purchasing animals from Brandon. For all your inquiries please contact his business email: brandon@canadiancoldblood.com or DM him at his business Instagram account: @canadiancoldblood . *Please note that his website isn’t currently updated. Tell him I sent you his way if you like!
Mr. Van Asten! My Grade 10 and 11 highschool science teacher. I was already a reptile hobbyist, and having your teacher be a reptile breeder as well was the coolest. Always brought in animals to class.
2 years on and I still come back and watch this. Brandon is one of the best in our hobby and you did a marvelous job showcasing what he does. lets see if you can take a trip out there in 2024 to see what has changed and maybe pick yourself up a knob-tail gecko or a black tree monitor
I have emailed with Brandon before he is an awesome guy and I know a few people with animals he produced and they are excellent. So cool to finally see his facility and some of his monitors, I know he has a LOT of special things that didn't get shown. I would love to see Brandon with his own TH-cam channel too.
I have definitely found my guy for greens yellows blues and blacks. I learned a lot from looking at his caging setups too. I had already thought of the idea of the cork tubes lining the back wall like that, so when you see a master doing it, you know your brain is in the right place. I am going to gravitate to a second species group with the Australian knob tails and a few others, so seeing him as a source for a lot of the animals I am planning on working with is a wonderful thing to glean from another one of your awesome videos my friend!! Congrats.
What a treat to visit such a phenomenal facility. Wish I could have a monitor but until then I’m living vicariously through you lol keep these awesome videos coming!!
11:20 That’s how my Zali is. He doesn’t hide so much anymore. But once he gets over the novelty of his enclosure. He just chills out. He used to favor his cork bark, he got over it. Then he favored this pile of sphagnum moss, got over that. Now he sits on rocks, unless he needs water. Animals just be super chill.
So cool glad i seen this video... I was going to get a red ackie... But now im thinking yellow...... Also them rock monitors are cool both. Kinds of them they are a doable size for monitors
Stunning... Never seen Platysaurus boradleyi before. I breed Lygodactylus Williamsi, also very small habitat in africa tansania, highly endangered and also blue and beautiful! :P
@@Reptiliatus I caught up on your green tree monitor videos as well. Very impressive 👏 👌 👍. I'm in the marker & I love how you care and enrich yours. Thanks for the great video & tips.
great video, awesome collection. What I'm interested in. How does he create the humidity fpr the tree monitors. He keeps the tree monitors in wooden enclosures, they look very dry
Good thing about blue tree monitor is that when they grow full? Their color still exists. I heard that one color tree monitor ( Think black or something) lose their color when they grow up!
Wow I love it. We need more breeder like him in Canada. I am looking to get in touch with him and open my market here in Québec. I did't know anythings about him. Thank's for sharing! That open few door here in Québec. Thank,s again! Yannick Mercier from Wild Natur Co.-Nature Sauvage Enr.
Amazing video so glad u went there, ive been following them on Instagram but they don't post much. Would like to get a blue some time next year from them 😁
As an Australian I feel it is my duty to tell you that that Kimberly Rock Monitor is in fact a Goanna. Goanna is pretty much a catch-all name for most species of varanus monitors in Australia and I just feel you need to know that.
I first thought the snout of all the Tree Monitors are a little bit damaged because of hitting the encloser but the fresh hatched manitors looks the same o.O and I have a question dont they need a high humidity? the enclosers are looking really dry and I dont see a watering system... or does it only looks so dry?
Honestly, they are all so stunning but I just love the vibrant green on the V. prasinus! They also hold that colour so well as adults whereas although the are still stunning, I feel blues (would have been my next pick) dull a bit with age unless they receive great lighting/uvb and a varied diet full of beta carotenoids and other things that could/would promote strong colour.
He does but it’s less frequently than you’d think. His enclosures hold in humidity fairly well but he’s always shared with me that the animals need less misting than you’d think. They have constant access to fresh water as seen in the video.

That’s awesome!
A town nearby me in the Netherlands is called Asten lol.
Wonder if his great great great grandparents where from there xD
You found a breeder that really treats his animals with respect! Love that!
Me too! Thank you for watching!
1 hide is respect fucking low bar

Right??
OMG!!!!!!!! ADORABLE!!!!!!!!😍😍😍
Agreed
Good thing about blue tree monitor is that when they grow full? Their color still exists. I heard that one color tree monitor ( Think black or something) lose their color when they grow up!
Are you thinking of green tree pythons? The offspring start out blue/orange/yellow/red but turn green as adults
@@sydneywachtler9327 ye s thank you for helping me
Hey Dayyan I’m a huge fan and just sent you a dm on insta about questions I have. Love the content!!
18:40 Is the Kimberly Rock Monitor the same reptile on his shirt?
GREETINGS FROM PHILIPPINES SIR ITS ALREADY 1:33 IN THE MORNING HERE IN PHILIPPINES I LOVE YOU'RE VIDEOS SIR❤️❤️

My pleasure friend!
Great to see V. beccari being bred. I understood they are rare in Europe. Hopefully there will be more
Indeed! Great success!
Amazing video!
Hope I can get my hands on one of those dark leachies on an expo soon
Hila monsters look so rad as well!!
Thank you! Ooo great animals! Thanks for watching!
this is my first ever comment I love your vids thank you so much for making me really make my day
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed and thank you for watching!
@@Reptiliatus i still cant beleve you responded this is beond cool
What kind of live plants can I add to my green tree monitor terrarium
Hi, are you saying red ackies are more prone to biting versus the yellow ackies?
I can’t say, it was Brandon’s experience he was sharing and he’s been breeding and keeping both species well over a decade.
I love this video I do have a question what type of substrate are you using for your Ackies
I believe he mentioned he was using beach sand from a river or pond (fresh water not from around an ocean).
Good Pets Reptiles 🦎
saya melihat varanus prasinus dari indonesia. TERIMA KASIH
23:34 Is there an appropriate way to hold an Ackie?
Amazing video so glad u went there, ive been following them on Instagram but they don't post much. Would like to get a blue some time next year from them 😁
My pleasure! Glad you liked the video!
TY ☺️
Wow so cool!!!
Indeed!

Goanna is pretty much a catch-all name for most species of varanus monitors in Australia and I just feel you need to know that.

cool i love this guys operation, one day
It’s awesome!

They also hold that colour so well as adults whereas although the are still stunning, I feel blues (would have been my next pick) dull a bit with age unless they receive great lighting/uvb and a varied diet full of beta carotenoids and other things that could/would promote strong colour.
Hey brother, what camera are you recording with? I love the resolution of your videos
I use a Canon G7xii and my IPhone 11 Pro Max mostly!
SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON
Amazing content. Thank you for sharing, Dayyan!
Thank you my friend!
He brought up sending the green trees going to Europe can he ship to the USA?
I would order his monitor lizards from Canada and ship them to Europe if this is possible
Yes he can however I’m not sure what that’s looking like now with Covid. You’d have to reach out to him.
Quick question.. does he mist his enclosure?? He doesn’t seem like he have a humidifier.
He does but it’s less frequently than you’d think. His enclosures hold in humidity fairly well but he’s always shared with me that the animals need less misting than you’d think. They have constant access to fresh water as seen in the video.
Does anybody know what type of wood he uses for building his enclosures? And what it’s treated with for waterproofing??
5:35 Those green tree monitors have a blue tint? Or is just the light?
They actually do sometimes!
Love that.
Amaziiiiing animals, gergous!
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
I got my Nephrurus Wheeleri from brandon, he produces and works with some very amazing animals
Definitely!
