Everybody did such an amazing job! I love these enclosures, but not nearly as much as I loved getting to know all of these incredible people! Thank you, Emily and Ed, for making this event a reality! And remember... "We've got a T. Rex"
It was so nice to see you jump in and help your competition. You helped everyone with your gorilla glue hack and then even helped Garret so he could finish on time which was so sweet of you. What a great example to set for everyone watching and for your peers around you. Great job on your enclosure as well. Every one turned put so great but I did like yours the most and your amazing sportsmanship really helped me decide to give you my vote. Good luck!
This event was so awesome on so many levels! Thanks for having me, thanks to all the great sponsors, and thanks for an amazing time! So proud to be a part of this!
Ed and Emily in the first part : is Clint trolling us with the gorilla glue thing ? Clint : you fools ! *uses it to build a t-rex, a background, helps others with it*
Can’t wait to see who wins! Everyone built such lovely enclosures, no matter who wins it is well deserved! Thanks again so much for this opportunity. It was and continues to be incredible.
Wahoo! Everyone’s enclosures look so INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much to all the build-off challenge sponsors for providing us with so many scape materials, decor, substrate, etc to create our enclosure builds! The result was 10 very unique enclosures that embodied many of our individual preferences and qualities! Voting is not going to be easy for you all!
Man I love Clint’s personality throughout the build. He has such a bubbly personality. I would love to meet him someday. AND THEN HE HELPED SOMEBODY ELSE!!! Could this man be any greater???
Brian's mushroom one has the type of asthetic I would want in my own home, but I'm just so impressed by Garrett's creativity & build. Ugh this is gonna be a tough one.
I still can't get over how amazing of an experience all of this was, and how beautifully all the tanks came out. Thank you again for having us! It was so great to meet you and Ed. (And Adam's thermometer at the end 😂)
Yours was absolutely the one I want most in my home! It looked so cozy and peaceful, both to observe, and to live in. And the hobbit hole made out of PVC piping was so clever.
Adam: *Drawing the short stick is like the theme of my life.* Me: Sometimes... I feel the same... *Edit:* Aw! I love the messages behind Hunter and Garrett's enclosures. And Clint is a sweetheart for letting everyone who needs it use the gorilla glue.
Love this! Question: is the spray foam people use a specific one for reptiles? Or the same as bought at Home Depot? Just wondering if chemicals are present after its hardened and safe for the reptiles.
To be perfectly honest, this is probably the most wholesome collab I have seen in a long time. Everyone's enclosure was perfect for what they wanted to do with each animal. Whether it be a leopard gecko, a fire skink, a bearded dragon, a corn snake, a carpet python, garter snake, ect. I think the real winners were that everyone had fun. The people to win the raffle are going to have a beautiful piece of art at home for their lovely animals to enjoy.
I loved everyone’s enclosures and I love how Clint displayed such sportsmanship he’s such a sweetheart. What really surprised me was Garrett’s comeback. He reminds me so much of my dad who passed away a few years ago and I really can appreciate how he put a personal part of his life into the enclosure. So lucky is the person who can bring it home❤️
didn't think i'd get emotional watching an enclosure build off, but when it got to Garrets turn i definitely was a bit emotional hearing his reasoning behind his build. everyone did such an amazing job! hope y'all can do more stuff like this!
Thanks again for having me! This was such a great time! 😁 I loved learning so many new methods of enclosure building, as well as general reptile facts! Additionally, thank you for letting me hold your amazing legless lizard, and other wonderful reptiles. I have a few new dream species on my list! This was truly the best reptile-related day ever! 😊
Agreed I was blown away by him. I knew he was a great guy but he is amazing! Such a sweet caring person. The T-rex sold me I am a die hard dinosaur lover.
@@prairiepanda he explains how he uses the gorilla glue in this enclosure build video: th-cam.com/video/GfZ4uzLSMf4/w-d-xo.html Its been a while since I watched it but I think he uses water with the glue, which makes it puff up kind of like the foam? And then he sticks the substrate to it, which I think looks really nice and naturalistic! I was mostly surprised that none of the contestants (and even Emily and Ed) seemed to know about his gorilla glue trick… I guess none of them watched his video!
Flashbacks to Dav talking about Clints viewers lol “Clints so adorable! He’s the reptile version of bob ross!” To be fair he’s super passionate about herp science.
It's that great kind of passion and excitement that makes YOU excited too, even if you never thought you'd be excited about reptiles. That's the same kind of attitude Steve Irwin had. I never thought much about crocodiles or snakes until I watched The Crocodile Hunter. I was very sad when he passed, he brought a lot of love for nature to this world.
Your enclosure has me so feeling so nostalgic. It reminds me of catching critters and going to the zoo in Louisiana. The copperhead and other various snakes had enclosures that had similar “southern workshed” feel that yours did!
"All we had to do was host" ... Putting this all together must have taken some amazing time, effort, and coordination to pull it off. And on top of that, you managed to film and make videos while also keeping everything running. Thanks for this amazing community event, thanks to all the sponsors, and everyone who took part!
I thought Garrett's was going to be just weird and quirky.. and then he went and tugged at my heartstrings 😢 Edit; I wanted to add that I really liked Garrett's inspiration for his enclosure. On top of that, I love that it's still a bioactive enclosure, even though it's so different from the typical "natural" enclosures. So creative and he really thought about everything.
That's what I liked about his enclosure. He really thought outside of the box on it and went with something natrualistic yet manmade at the same time. It remsinds of one of the exhibits at the LA County Natural History Museum. In their hall of North American mammals they all sorts of stuffed animals from deer to elk, to wolves, to moose all in very naturalistic settings like you'd see them in the widl. Then they have one with a coytoe in somebody's back patio with a cat in its mouth, showing how wild animals like coyotes live amongst humans.
I’m super late, but Elle’s enclosure looked the most aesthetically pleasing to me. So much beautiful greens and little details, it’d be quite a zen decoration for home.
After watching Snake Discovery for a couple of years now, I've come to realise that Ed's laugh is one of the best sounds in the world. It's genuinely joy-bringing and quite infectious. He and Emily are truly wonderful people :D
One of the things I love about this channel is how it builds people up. Ed building up and supporting Emily. The channel building up and supporting other creators. Clint building up and supporting other builders. The channel building up and educating beginning reptile keepers. It is just such a nice vibe and nice example.
I'm so glad you got Garrett's supply hunt on video - the whistling! 😂 What an honor and a pleasure it was to share a space with all these kind, talented people. Thank you for hosting this amazing event (and of course Brian for trusting me as a build partner)! Everyone's enclosures turned out beautifully, it's impossible to choose a favorite! Kinda leaning toward Mossy Morelia Mushroom Manor though! 😏 🍄 🐍 Can't wait to see them all find homes at the grand opening!
I'm just in love with Garrett's enclosure, it's so unique and beautiful... Everyone did an amazing job and were so creative, but Garrett's is by far my favorite! It's so nice to see everyone working and having fun, I could have watched for hours!
I haven't even finished the video yet and I am already like "I'm pretty sure Garrett will make my favorite enclosure." That's also because he won me over with saying "You have beautiful supplies.. Im looking for ugly!"
Dude didnt follow the challenge though. Bring one item and then use from the stuff they had there, he spent he most of his time in home depot. Its a very unique enclosure but everyone else build within the restraints of the competition. He had copper pipes, a metal bath, pumps and all sorts of stuff. Down with the cheater :)
@PG Aquatics, someone requested gorilla glue and they got it. Had he requested his needs they would have been provided. He did not want Ed and Emily spending anymore than they already had. Express how you feel with your vote and do not put others down. This is about community and supporting the reptile hobby not tearing it apart.
They all look so great but Garret’s literally blew me away. It looks awesome at first glance but it just keeps getting cooler the more you take in the detail put into it, the functionality, and the thought and sentimentality it’s just...wow.
I voted Garrett's enclosure. His theme and background story he gave just totally resounded with me. And the fact he used some of his granfathers tools is everything!
It’s literally 1 am for me. This is fine. I will watch all of this and vote on a winner. Edit: I think Brian’s is the best. Not only does the design feel fairy tailish and like a cottage with the mushrooms, but it also has a cute snake. I think Clint is very close though.
On behalf of disabled people everywhere, thank you for including benches in your facility. A place to sit down makes your facility possible for those of us with with conditions that will not allow us to stand or walk for long. ❤❤❤
Garrett’s absolutely chaos demon energy with the pallets was so entertaining, and the enclosure was unique and beautiful! Plus, the amazing advice about how to check if a pallet is chemically treated. And his explanation of his build was absolutely INCREDIBLE
Garrett and Clint are like my top two favorite enclousures. They look so nice. Garretts, however, gives me such homey nostalgic feels and I really just needed that in my life right now with how emotional and hard things have been for me. Seeing Snake Discovery videos always makes me happy. Good luck to all the contestants!
@@slaughterinthespotlight1669 yeah but the other one brings back memories of a bonfire and a dear friend who passed away this weekend so can't beat that for me lmao The t-rex is super cool though, which is why it's definitely second for me!
I love Garrett’s setup because he really did add a little piece of himself in his build. That really was such a beautiful speech he gave. He obviously loves animals and I know a lot of animals would love his build to live in.
I love the amount a rule bending going on. Clint helping everyone. Garrett leaving his tools in the enclosure. Brian including an actual snake. Jessica building half her dang enclosure at home (brilliant). I wonder if the rules will change at all next time, or if they’re just going to keep going with it.
Ok Elle's Reptiles won it for me with that hobbit hide! My vote is purely based on my literal fav build, but WOW what incredibly beautiful enclosures! I'd love to have all of them 🥰
Clint is the one who inspired me to do my first bio active enclosure. I love his style and I was really drawn to his. Garetts enclosure was super cool and I loved the story behind it. Everyone did great though I’m not creative at all so watching people who are was really fun!
Clint is such a sweet person! I found him after I’d been watching snake discovery for a long time, but he has definitely become one of my favourite youtubers! I also like Wickens wicked reptiles. Thanks for introducing me to some new people though! Super excited to have more positive, high quality reptile content 💜
Everyone did such an amazing job, it’s hard to choose a “winner”! I think everyone deserves a prize for how good of sports they all are and how they all were so creative!!
It was awesome. I learned a lot too. Very impressed with young Hunter. The young bloke is half my age and knows way more about reptiles than me. Much respect man.
I love Garrets Enclosure design and his Intentions of what it should be for, if u were to minus the Isopods and a few other things, that would also be a great rat/mouse enclosure
I haven't even finished the video yet and I just gotta say I love the amount of community support and positivity. I also love all the little bits of info we are learning, like about acetone removing foam and how to differentiate heat treated wood vs chemically treated wood. This is so awesome, love it!
I heavily appreciate the heart and soul Garret put into the design and Idea of his enclosure, its absolutely wonderful and gives me so much nostalgia I didn't even know I had! However, Clint's enclosure had so much naturalistic fun and design to it that I think would be perfect for the species intended or even other species to fully enjoy! His personality, and generosity in helping the others with tips and hard work just hits me in a heartwarming way. My vote Is on Clint but I wouldn't be upset if Garret won what so ever. He worked so hard and put so much of himself into the build. Wonderful job to everyone! Keep building so many more amazing things. Stay Hydrated.
I like Clint's a lot. And his energy is very contagious. 😊 Garrett and Hunter was very articulate in explaining and describing theirs. And you get to nod your head a lot as you look at their finished product as they do their explaining. 😊 All in all, everyone gave their best and they took into consideration the reptile that would be living in their enclosure. All enclosures look lit! 🔥 Congrats to Ed and Emily for this. 👏👏👏
25:08 Clint turns into “Reptile Willy Wonka”, and introduces you to his Skink Factory! Major Attractions: -Gorilla Glue Wall Climb -They have a T.Rex -Emerald Tree Skink -Clint Laidlaw
I'm so thankful for your channel. It helps me live vicariously through people who can keep and are super passionate about reptiles, and all the enclosures were just stunning pieces of art.
I really love that mushroom one personally because it reminds me of the fairy tails I love to read and write. And I would happily live in an enchant forest like that
Jess’s enclosure looks amazing & super cute. In my opinion, all the leopard gecko-based enclosures were super cute. And the cage with the glowing mushrooms!! Absolutely stunning. Can’t wait to see who the winner is!
I want Garrett's enclosure for my hedgehog. She'd love snuffling around in that thing and all the little places for her to headbut her way into. I know it's for a reptile but still, my heggie would love it.
Garrett's explanation of his enclosure was the best and he is so right. Sometimes to move forward we need to look back to simple times. And with what we all have gone through over the last couple years, simple is so nice. Everyone did an amazing job and I found so many new channels to follow. Thank Emily and Ed for putting this together ❤
I'm emotional watching all these individual TH-camrs working in the same space after so much covid isolation. I'm so impressed by Emily and Ed! Great idea, Paul! 💛💛💛
This is one of the most wholesome things I've ever watched! Everyone's enclosures look amazing and seeing all these positive comments from creators who were there is wonderful! Thanks for putting this together Ed and Emily and all the sponsors!! 🥰 Picking a winner will be such a challenge!
As I’m washing dishes and glancing over at my phone every so often to make sure I could get a glance at each enclosure as the voices changed (I apologize I don’t think I’m subscribed to any of the contestants building) I was curious as to why there was a few saying to vote for so and so’s. So I didn’t think much of it and after hearing the reasoning/story behind the build of the last enclosure, it just hit a special place in my heart. So Naturally when I was done with the dishes I sat down to rewatch/listen to everyone. And I just want to say they all are amazing on their own and anyone who is lucky to get anyone of those enclosures will know that it was made not just for a “competition” but made with love and there was thought, time and effort put in to each and everyone and to have this video to look back on (if you do win one) to hear the little bit of background as to where it was started is something amazing. It makes me a little jealous that I’m in MA and I know there’s no way I’d be able to be there to even see these in real life. Sorry for the novel, But congratulations to each and everyone of you and thank you all for doing such an awesome job, from the sponsors to the builders, thank you. I appreciate things like this and to Emily and Ed I look forward to seeing future enclosure build offs every year now lol. I can’t wait to see everything open and again look forward to the videos posted since I can only hope to one day visit ❤️❤️❤️peace and love to all. And if you’ve read this far thank you and sorry lol
Everybody did such an amazing job! I love these enclosures, but not nearly as much as I loved getting to know all of these incredible people! Thank you, Emily and Ed, for making this event a reality! And remember...
"We've got a T. Rex"
Hi!!
Very stinkin rad T-Rex!
Lol That T Rex is so Rad!
It was so nice to see you jump in and help your competition. You helped everyone with your gorilla glue hack and then even helped Garret so he could finish on time which was so sweet of you. What a great example to set for everyone watching and for your peers around you. Great job on your enclosure as well. Every one turned put so great but I did like yours the most and your amazing sportsmanship really helped me decide to give you my vote. Good luck!
I thought jessica won but then your was just so cute so you win!!
This event was so awesome on so many levels! Thanks for having me, thanks to all the great sponsors, and thanks for an amazing time! So proud to be a part of this!
That background is epic! XD
You made me feel Old Dave when in someones video I saw you say, ask your older siblings, parents, uncles who Jay and Silent Bob are. Ugh!!! 😂
WHY ARE YOU NOT VERIFIED YOU SHOULD E!!!
I'm subscribed to your videos
You are one of a kind man. Keep being you. You deserve your own category for what you guys did. So bold. So funny. 😂🤣😂🤣
Ed and Emily in the first part : is Clint trolling us with the gorilla glue thing ?
Clint : you fools ! *uses it to build a t-rex, a background, helps others with it*
You’re so pretty
I like how Clint chose to tuck his tie into his shirt instead of simply removing the tie
i didn't notice that when i was watching, but that is hilarious.
Yeah same, this guy is hilarious :D
Ed: “We get Clint laying all sexy.”
Clint: *draw me like one of your French girls*
😂😂 i cant get that scene except replace the face with Clint out of my head
I know Clint will never let go.
"You said we could bring our own tools, but you never said we couldn't *leave them behind*."
Genuine galaxy brain move on Garret's part.
Why
Everyone’s enclosure turned out so good and they’re all so unique in their own way! Can’t wait to see who wins! This was so much fun! 😁
Yours was cool!
Oi
How is your hair😂
Yours was really cool! You made it fun to watch and I can't wait to see more of your content.
you gay lad?
Can’t wait to see who wins! Everyone built such lovely enclosures, no matter who wins it is well deserved! Thanks again so much for this opportunity. It was and continues to be incredible.
Yours was great!
@@lola2264 thank you so much!!
@@JessicasAnimalFriends No problem! i’m giving nice comments to all of the contestants and i think you won for me
yours I just love everything about it it is really pretty
How are you not verified? 😢
Garrett was so wholesome and his design was so nice.. You can tell that he truly put his heart into this!! He has my vote for sure!
His enclosure was nice but he did not stop working on it even after the time was up. That is cheating.
Yes i agree
I honestly teared up a little when he said he had his grandfathers tools in there.
@@jessicapearson9479 Guess we know who’s jealous.
And we know that you clearly cannot pay attention to the rules they said in the beginning.
Clint's my personal favorite, mostly because his enclosure looks cool, but also because he helped his competitors. They were all truly incredible.
And he has a t.rex
@@dionelmejia8093 Haha, good point!

@@lola2264 Thank you!
@@Reptiliatus No problem i am giving nice comments to all the contestants and yours was in my top 3 😊
Hi
@@lola2264 thanks! 🙏🏼
Clint's pitch gives me 100% confidence that he would do well when playing Snake Oil.
Clint could sell coal to Newcastle (as goes the English expression, anyway!).
Oh my gooooddddd yes
I love the game Snake Oil!
Can we acknowledge the fact that Garrett sacrificed his beloved grandfathers old tools for this is so sweet! Thank you!
I will never get tired of Clint saying "weve got a trex"
Clint was so incredibly kind during the contest. Gotta love how rad he truly is.
YES! Part of the reason I voted for him!
Stinkin rad!
@@rahulr1305 do you mean "skinkin" rad
Thank you again for such an amazing experience! 🤩🤩🤩 everyone’s enclosures turned out incredible!
I really liked yours!
@@lola2264 thank you so much 🥰🥰
Hello
I loved your hides and I would have never thought to use them like you did.
Well done Maddie! You did so good!!!
Man I love Clint’s personality throughout the build. He has such a bubbly personality. I would love to meet him someday. AND THEN HE HELPED SOMEBODY ELSE!!! Could this man be any greater???
he helped Multiple people!!! I love him. lol thats why i voted for him, the sportsmanship!
Right?? I was thinking the same thing! He's such a lovely human :)
Yes, absolutely, definetly
Plus the little 'We have a t-rex!' Was too cool!!!
I love your videos 😊🐊🐢🐍🦎🕷️🐟
Clint wins for sportsmanship! I can’t think of a more wholesome and kind person tbh.
Brian's mushroom one has the type of asthetic I would want in my own home, but I'm just so impressed by Garrett's creativity & build. Ugh this is gonna be a tough one.
Do you know what the mushrooms are
I still can't get over how amazing of an experience all of this was, and how beautifully all the tanks came out. Thank you again for having us! It was so great to meet you and Ed. (And Adam's thermometer at the end 😂)
You're so great! I'm so glad we got to meet.
Your build was such an excellent idea!
I love your design and voted for you! 😄
Your build was really beautiful. I love themed enclosures, and it just seemed like it would be so pleasant and comfy for an animal. :)
Yours was absolutely the one I want most in my home! It looked so cozy and peaceful, both to observe, and to live in. And the hobbit hole made out of PVC piping was so clever.
I'm still flying high from this event. What a great time. We're celebrating early over here 🎉🎉 Good luck everybody!!
Wicked Idea on your one, I really liked it, you seem like a 'fungi' ;)
Your amazing snake was the cherry on the top of the whipped cream.
Loved the mushroom also.
Adam: *Drawing the short stick is like the theme of my life.*
Me: Sometimes... I feel the same...
*Edit:* Aw! I love the messages behind Hunter and Garrett's enclosures. And Clint is a sweetheart for letting everyone who needs it use the gorilla glue.
Can we all appreciate the fact that mom was there with Hunter, cheering him on?
Garrett has the most chaotic confidence I've ever seen XD
Couldn't have said it better myself. Lol
So cool to see everyone together, the enclosures came out so well! :D
You would have won if you were there. Also, thank you a lot, you are the reason I got my first reptile :D
Omg! Leopard gecko! I love your channel!!!
Love this! Question: is the spray foam people use a specific one for reptiles? Or the same as bought at Home Depot? Just wondering if chemicals are present after its hardened and safe for the reptiles.
OMG LEOPARD GECKO I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL your the reason y I'm getting a gecko
If it wasn't save, there wouldn't ve so many people using it even in aquariums...
To be perfectly honest, this is probably the most wholesome collab I have seen in a long time. Everyone's enclosure was perfect for what they wanted to do with each animal.

Imsohappy
Loved watching everyone's videos including yours. You and your mom did great.
The chaotic good energy of Clint is infectious.
Really wanna put a cobra in there , since that’s where you usually find them in my country
I like clint’s the best! I also liked his sportsmanship and his devotion to gorilla glue.
I wish we could have seen his full process with the gorilla glue. It turned out so good, and looks much easier to work with than Great Stuf foam!
Agreed I was blown away by him. I knew he was a great guy but he is amazing! Such a sweet caring person. The T-rex sold me I am a die hard dinosaur lover.
@@prairiepanda he explains how he uses the gorilla glue in this enclosure build video: th-cam.com/video/GfZ4uzLSMf4/w-d-xo.html

I love when Clint says "Just remember we got a t-rex"
Clint is so wholesome XD He's like a kid in a candy store and you can tell that his geeky little heart is so happy!
Clint is the most adorable human ever 🥺 his excitement and smile is everything!
Clint is the closest human equivalent we will get to a puppy
He is such a delightful human, his love for life is so infectious!
Clint is simply glorious

I would live in that enclosure!
Mate, your enclosure! I was impressed with what I saw in other videos, but your pitch? Standing ovation and a new follower.
Your enclosure has me so feeling so nostalgic. It reminds me of catching critters and going to the zoo in Louisiana. The copperhead and other various snakes had enclosures that had similar “southern workshed” feel that yours did!
Elle is so delicate and soft spoken and her enclosure has magical glow to it, I'm grateful that I discovered her with this competition
Me too.
I love her accent.
Yeah right? I loved the overall look of her enclosure and that hobbit cave is just amazing
Same!
No matter who wins over all. Clint deserves the Good Sportsmanship award for helping the competition!
"All we had to do was host" ... Putting this all together must have taken some amazing time, effort, and coordination to pull it off. And on top of that, you managed to film and make videos while also keeping everything running. Thanks for this amazing community event, thanks to all the sponsors, and everyone who took part!

Totally agree!
Glad he grew into being in front of the camera as the totally amazing person he is.
Ed and Emily are an amazing couple!
Only sound better is One Topics laugh
Ed's laugh is the best! He is our third favorite 😉 after Allie and Omnomlette ❤
That was fun. I LOVED Garrett’s barn. That enclosure needs to be here at our ranch. Our Bullsnake Rodney would love it!
Hey I love watching your bredli python training videos 👍
@@maddoxprimeaux3565 Thank you. They’re brilliant learners.
I loved Garrett's enclosure because it shows people that you dont have to invest a lot of money to make a amazing enclosure.
Clints presentation of his build alone makes it the best

Is Clint not just the most precious human being 😍 he’s just the biggest sweetheart.
He's like if Steve Irwin and Mr. Rogers shared a nephew
I'm just in love with Garrett's enclosure, it's so unique and beautiful... Everyone did an amazing job and were so creative, but Garrett's is by far my favorite! It's so nice to see everyone working and having fun, I could have watched for hours!
The story behind it sold me. Also, he made a mini barn in his enclosure which is insane. There was thought in every detail.
I haven't even finished the video yet and I am already like "I'm pretty sure Garrett will make my favorite enclosure." That's also because he won me over with saying "You have beautiful supplies.. Im looking for ugly!"

Its a very unique enclosure but everyone else build within the restraints of the competition. He had copper pipes, a metal bath, pumps and all sorts of stuff.
Down with the cheater :)
@PG Aquatics, someone requested gorilla glue and they got it. Had he requested his needs they would have been provided. He did not want Ed and Emily spending anymore than they already had. Express how you feel with your vote and do not put others down. This is about community and supporting the reptile hobby not tearing it apart.

The pure wholesome, yet chaotic energy of everyone coming together for this warms my heart.
"if everything else is equal, just remember we've got a t-rex" I mean I'm sold
Even that Garret was so late, it is a amazing build. Everyone made something great and special. It is hard to choose from.
They all look so great but Garret’s literally blew me away. It looks awesome at first glance but it just keeps getting cooler the more you take in the detail put into it, the functionality, and the thought and sentimentality it’s just...wow.
I have to agree here
Thank you!
I voted Garrett's enclosure. His theme and background story he gave just totally resounded with me. And the fact he used some of his granfathers tools is everything!
It’s literally 1 am for me. This is fine. I will watch all of this and vote on a winner.
Edit: I think Brian’s is the best. Not only does the design feel fairy tailish and like a cottage with the mushrooms, but it also has a cute snake.
I think Clint is very close though.
Relatable
Same I think Brian’s and garrets are the best
I like clints
Wow.. thank you!
Garrett’s looks like an interior design masterpiece, looking so great! Will definitely vote for his!
Thank you!! We're releasing a video this week on how exactly we built it!
@@ReachOutReptiles nice! can’t wait 🤩!!!!!
On behalf of disabled people everywhere, thank you for including benches in your facility. A place to sit down makes your facility possible for those of us with with conditions that will not allow us to stand or walk for long. ❤❤❤
Garrett’s absolutely chaos demon energy with the pallets was so entertaining, and the enclosure was unique and beautiful!
Plus, the amazing advice about how to check if a pallet is chemically treated.
And his explanation of his build was absolutely INCREDIBLE
Garrett and Clint are like my top two favorite enclousures. They look so nice. Garretts, however, gives me such homey nostalgic feels and I really just needed that in my life right now with how emotional and hard things have been for me. Seeing Snake Discovery videos always makes me happy. Good luck to all the contestants!
Garrettes.....I want to read a book in it and relax
But remember
Clint has a t rex
@@slaughterinthespotlight1669 he does and its wonderful, but you just can't beat the cozy nostalgia after such a hard week, for me at least.
@@danimessina9210 but he has a t rex
@@slaughterinthespotlight1669 yeah but the other one brings back memories of a bonfire and a dear friend who passed away this weekend so can't beat that for me lmao The t-rex is super cool though, which is why it's definitely second for me!
Brian's had a cohesive theme, and was both aesthetic for humans AND practical for critters. A perfect winner.
I love Elle’s reptile enclosure it’s so cozy and I love her hides 🥰 they are amazing and the burrowing idea is perfect.
Agreed I think Ive settled on voting for her. I love those hobbit holes!
Clint’s looks amazing and he was a stinkin’ rad sport. He’s got my vote!

Honestly when I saw how unique Garrett's looked I knew I had to vote for it. That is such an awesome design. Though Clint's was honestly tempting.
This whole series on everyone’s channels has brought me so much joy these past few days! Thank you to all the great creators
This is so tough. So many of these enclosures are so cool.
And all these people seem so nice! Love the energy Elle, Clint, and Garrett have.
Well said, so hard. Win or not they all look amazing.
I love Garrett’s setup because he really did add a little piece of himself in his build. That really was such a beautiful speech he gave. He obviously loves animals and I know a lot of animals would love his build to live in.
I love the amount a rule bending going on. Clint helping everyone. Garrett leaving his tools in the enclosure. Brian including an actual snake. Jessica building half her dang enclosure at home (brilliant). I wonder if the rules will change at all next time, or if they’re just going to keep going with it.
Ok Elle's Reptiles won it for me with that hobbit hide! My vote is purely based on my literal fav build, but WOW what incredibly beautiful enclosures! I'd love to have all of them 🥰
Same!! That hobbit hole was amazing! All of them were incredible though
For me im in love with the mushroom manor
Yasss!!!!! Also Diamond being mentioned on a Snake Discovery video is the most adorable thing ever.
Clint is the one who inspired me to do my first bio active enclosure. I love his style and I was really drawn to his. Garetts enclosure was super cool and I loved the story behind it. Everyone did great though I’m not creative at all so watching people who are was really fun!
Clint is such a sweet person! I found him after I’d been watching snake discovery for a long time, but he has definitely become one of my favourite youtubers! I also like Wickens wicked reptiles. Thanks for introducing me to some new people though! Super excited to have more positive, high quality reptile content 💜
Everyone did such an amazing job, it’s hard to choose a “winner”! I think everyone deserves a prize for how good of sports they all are and how they all were so creative!!
It was awesome. I learned a lot too.
Very impressed with young Hunter. The young bloke is half my age and knows way more about reptiles than me. Much respect man.
I love Garrets Enclosure design and his Intentions of what it should be for, if u were to minus the Isopods and a few other things, that would also be a great rat/mouse enclosure
There's a thought
So glad I wasn't the only one thinking that! Except my rats LOVE to dig ❤ and they would be in that water feature 24/7 😄
@@ashleydawn5033 u could make the substrate at the back a bit higher if they wanted to dig or add boxes/hides full of shredded paper or something
They’d eat the isopods lol
Emily holding Allie like a baby is sooo cute! Love all the enclosures are great! What a fun event!
I haven't even finished the video yet and I just gotta say I love the amount of community support and positivity. I also love all the little bits of info we are learning, like about acetone removing foam and how to differentiate heat treated wood vs chemically treated wood. This is so awesome, love it!
I heavily appreciate the heart and soul Garret put into the design and Idea of his enclosure, its absolutely wonderful and gives me so much nostalgia I didn't even know I had! However, Clint's enclosure had so much naturalistic fun and design to it that I think would be perfect for the species intended or even other species to fully enjoy! His personality, and generosity in helping the others with tips and hard work just hits me in a heartwarming way. My vote Is on Clint but I wouldn't be upset if Garret won what so ever. He worked so hard and put so much of himself into the build. Wonderful job to everyone! Keep building so many more amazing things. Stay Hydrated.
Emily: I wonder where Garrett went?
Meanwhile, at the scrap pile behind the building...
What scrap pile? :)
You should see our Tinley Booth ;)
I like Clint's a lot. And his energy is very contagious. 😊
Garrett and Hunter was very articulate in explaining and describing theirs. And you get to nod your head a lot as you look at their finished product as they do their explaining. 😊
All in all, everyone gave their best and they took into consideration the reptile that would be living in their enclosure. All enclosures look lit! 🔥
Congrats to Ed and Emily for this. 👏👏👏
I vote clint’s reptiles since he had most of the natural environment looks
Also don't forget he got the T-Rex :D
He just overall had the best vibe.
Totally voted for Clint!

I'm so thankful for your channel. It helps me live vicariously through people who can keep and are super passionate about reptiles, and all the enclosures were just stunning pieces of art.
I really love that mushroom one personally because it reminds me of the fairy tails I love to read and write. And I would happily live in an enchant forest like that
"If all else fails, just remember: we have a t rex!" - Clint's reptiles
Honestly love how wholesome Clint seems, just helping out here and there
Jess’s enclosure looks amazing & super cute. In my opinion, all the leopard gecko-based enclosures were super cute. And the cage with the glowing mushrooms!! Absolutely stunning. Can’t wait to see who the winner is!
I have to say Emily and Ed are probably the two most positively impactful people and binders of the reptile/amphibian community!
Garret's is much different from the other's but it's quite unique, that's what I like about it! All the other enclosures are also amazing!
Thanks! You'll have to check out our video to see how it was made!
I want Garrett's enclosure for my hedgehog. She'd love snuffling around in that thing and all the little places for her to headbut her way into. I know it's for a reptile but still, my heggie would love it.
Garrett's explanation of his enclosure was the best and he is so right. Sometimes to move forward we need to look back to simple times. And with what we all have gone through over the last couple years, simple is so nice.
Everyone did an amazing job and I found so many new channels to follow. Thank Emily and Ed for putting this together ❤
I'm emotional watching all these individual TH-camrs working in the same space after so much covid isolation. I'm so impressed by Emily and Ed! Great idea, Paul! 💛💛💛
Feeding the baby at 2am, this is perfect entertainment!
They are all amazing enclosures, Elle's got my vote.
Garretts build was STUNNING and from recycled materials too! clear winner for me :o
This is one of the most wholesome things I've ever watched! Everyone's enclosures look amazing and seeing all these positive comments from creators who were there is wonderful! Thanks for putting this together Ed and Emily and all the sponsors!! 🥰 Picking a winner will be such a challenge!
As I’m washing dishes and glancing over at my phone every so often to make sure I could get a glance at each enclosure as the voices changed (I apologize I don’t think I’m subscribed to any of the contestants building) I was curious as to why there was a few saying to vote for so and so’s. So I didn’t think much of it and after hearing the reasoning/story behind the build of the last enclosure, it just hit a special place in my heart. So Naturally when I was done with the dishes I sat down to rewatch/listen to everyone. And I just want to say they all are amazing on their own and anyone who is lucky to get anyone of those enclosures will know that it was made not just for a “competition” but made with love and there was thought, time and effort put in to each and everyone and to have this video to look back on (if you do win one) to hear the little bit of background as to where it was started is something amazing. It makes me a little jealous that I’m in MA and I know there’s no way I’d be able to be there to even see these in real life. Sorry for the novel,
But congratulations to each and everyone of you and thank you all for doing such an awesome job, from the sponsors to the builders, thank you. I appreciate things like this and to Emily and Ed I look forward to seeing future enclosure build offs every year now lol. I can’t wait to see everything open and again look forward to the videos posted since I can only hope to one day visit ❤️❤️❤️peace and love to all. And if you’ve read this far thank you and sorry lol
oh mah gawd
*wow*
but seriously wow
also Garrett, whistling might just might attract suspicion :)
aghh i can’t choose between clint and garrett
Clints voice is so cute when he gets excited. I also love the T. rex
