who else thinks NKFherping is the best herping channel on TH-cam?
Herp kid is
@@yeahjustreptiles his channel is super cool too!
@@yeahjustreptiles also loub747 is really cool too!
NFK and Will Robertson. Both awesome, both kid friendly.
loub747 is awesome. Gives a West Coast perspective.
I met a blue garter snake in my garden and decided to make him a house out of a flower pot. It is designed for humidity. I made it on a Wednesday and found the snake in it on that Friday. Your videos inspired me and I'm glad to have the new resident in the garden.
That cottonmouth in the beginning of the video was really cool!
I really look fwd to these videos from Noah. My son and i have learned so much. OAN: whoever it is that gets his notifications just to hit the dislike button every time, you really need to re-evaluate your life.
Dude!! so lucky out in the Rain etc..... love herping in Georgia!!
Walked out on the porch and found my six year old twin boys watching this video. They have been watching all of them and love that most of the videos are filmed in our area. I have been looking for snakes since I was four and would have loved to have videos like this to watch when I was there age. Thanks for the great videos.
Oh and on a hike yesterday one of the boys was in the lead. Suddenly he froze, stepped back slowly and said "venomous snake". Then his brother said "yep, copperhead". Have to say I was proud of the way they handled the surprise encounter. We watched him move off into the brush as we got some good pictures.
Wow, you find so many cool animals! Cool vid 👍✔
Woow your amazing. 😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘
Amazing you always make the best videos
I appreciated the blurb about the hand sanitizer. I had wondered during the many videos of yours that I had watched whether you were doing the hand sanitizing...especially considering the many types, conditions of the reps and the widespread counties and states that you traverse. Good Job!!! (I love your videos!!!)
This is superb mate great work chaps✌️
Watching your videos after months
From India🇮🇳
It clear how easily a cotton mouth could be mistaken since their colors vary lighter and dark I believe you do a great job on your videos, It is clear your very knowledgeable and I find you fun to watch.
"Look at that thicc back end" - that's what he said.
my whole family has covid and strep right now and the lack of sleep is really ok when it means more time for your vids
Very tempting to try and help that King snake . Always enjoy watching, beautiful reptiles. 👍👌
Super cool video…thanks for sharing👍😎
Great job, thank you for sharing.
Been waiting all day for this lol. Just felt like a herping vlog type of day I guess but that's everyday
Hey Noah......so sorry to hear about the doa and see the sickly kingsnake. I am glad that you did get to see a couple of alive kings. Stay safe and I look forward to the next video. 😄❤️🐬
That was one straight up fine looking Cooter. Looks like you washed and waxed it for the shoot. Lol
Well yeah man lol, nobody wants to take pictures of a dirty cooter lol giggity!
That's a PSA for everyone out there, always make sure to keep your cooler clean lol giggity!
I would love to see him do a herping trip to pa. It Hasn't been seen in many years but if anyone can find it it's you it is the eastern massuga rattlesnake
Also a Kirtlands snake would be a cool find in pa
I can😜
Me too. He could also add short headed garter snakes to his list.
There's people doing Massasauga studies in PA on private property
Did you know that there is only 3 Venomous Snakes in PA. The one u mentioned, Timber Rattler, and the Copperhead
Awesome PSA I always think about it when I touch amphibians or turtles, but I'm thankful for the reminder about snakes and Blizzard's and stuff, especially living here in extreme south Florida where we have 100s of non native invasive s here!! An awesome reminder!!!
Very nice kings! Great video!
Blue racers are cool snakes you should come to Michigan to see one
Thank you for helping me identify the eastern couch whip
Let us know in that “sanitizer” segment you talked about if you have any tips for removing musk smell. That would be awesome if you have a method. Cheers
I think hand sanitizer
@@Danimalsfan you’re probably right but that never works for me. Also, I should have read that comment before I sent it..... worst sentence ever... lol
Unfortunately there isn’t a good way to cure a bad musking. Hand sanitizer will eventually work though it just has to air out for a bit it seems.
@@NKFherping thanks Noah. That’s what I suspected based on my experience. Absolutely love your content bro. Keep up the good work.
Mix a little salt or sand with toothpaste before the hand sanitizer works best for me..like Noah sez you gonna have to air it out...works on fish smelly hands too😉
We have those Black Banded King snakes here in Kentucky, and there's a reason they're called King snakes, came across one that had a Cotton Mouth about half eaten. When ever we came across one and could safely capture it we'd bring them back to the farm around our feed sheds, kept away the bad snakes and was a terror on rodents.
When he goes to grocery store and runs into the elderly he says “what’s up dude?!” And then escorts them to their car! 😝
I enjoy a kingsnake. The only living one I've seen this year had this blueish hue and gleam. It was incredible. The other one I saw was in the claws of a red shouldered hawk, presumably on the hunt for a copperhead I ran into not far away from it.
Those green back flies are the picnic fly/doodoo fly.
I saw a pretty large garter snake when I was hiking on the Appalachian trail the other day. I didn't see any other snakes after that which is unusual considering where I was.
Bath and Body works!! Omg as if I couldn’t love you more 😂
ONE EYE! I love it!
It's interesting how the banding on the cottonmouth is similar to a copperhead's banding; just darker and faded more.
As babies, they look very similar lol!
Do you ever call Richard “Dick”? It only takes one friend to do it and it sticks for life. Lol 😂
Awesome video, Noah. Never herped Georgia. That may change in September.
Great reminder/tip on the hand sanitizer to avoid transferring pathogens between snakes. I figured you sanitized between snakes but didn't know what you used. I guess any hand sanitizer that is good for humans works for snake pathogens too? Would love even a whole video on it if you could.
Every time I see a water moccasin I laugh because they look so pissed off
Man I just discovered these helping videos! Thanks for posting this for germaphobe wussies like me!
I'm hoping I'm not alone handling my snake while watching NKF herping
King snake is cool
Amazing vids.
How do you find all of these animals! A friend of mine is the same way. Shes like a Disney princess in disguise.
I live in Georgia it’s FUN herping
you see more snakes in an hour than I see in a year in Alberta, Canada.
That one looked like a rare eastern deer snake.
Dude, that sucked to see the sick King, hope something found and ate it.
2:26 anyone else see the snake slither out of the leaf litter lol
Don’t worry about the girlie scents lol they smell good!
Is the Garder Snake a Water Snake??? Because I’ve only found them next to water like on a little mini cliff next to shallow water
The king near the copperhead could have been hunting it since they eat other snakes
Hello🤗
We used to use bleach spray in florida
Is three boards and old plastic play slide a good hearing set up
Dude do you know anybody who does this in oregon? My son is in love with all animals and he loves your videos. All we ever find are garter snakes and rough skinned newts. I want to get better at finding whats out here for his sake.
Would you ever go out herping in Land o lakes Florida or up in the WA state rainforests?
I found a cottonmouth in the glades in the same condition as that king snake. Any idea what could be causing it? SFD maybe?
Don't leave a e. King in distress again...they must be revived ....and put in observation..u.s. length record is 82 and one half inches.!!!!! Enjoy them.
!!!!!!!
Noah do you ever try to rehab any snakes. Or are they laws set up in a way that doesn't allow the good guys to do that???
Yes,I re hab many reptiles and they are like a brand new animal after I complete their revival..!!!!!!..Dr g. Z. Herpotologist
Some time can you come herp Pennsylvania
Hi
OoOoOooooh....hand sanitizer! You gonna trade in yer sandals for some stiletto heels too? OoOoOoooohhhh......!
Did you happen to go back and c if the sick king passed??
I hate it when auto correct changes lizzard to blizzard! Dohhh!
Probably others have asked- have you considered scientific names in addition to common names? Maybe in captions only.
Greatly enjoy the channel in any case.
Hey man! Im up here in Cornelia, GA for a few nights visiting family. Are there any roads or nearby counties you can recommend to cruise for copperheads?
I know they’re a dime/dozen up here, but we don’t have copperheads in Waycross, Ga… I’d love to find one
I’ve seen lots crossing quiet backroads around Cornelia at night, good luck!
Thank ya sir. If you’re ever looking for a particular species down around Waycross, let me know. I can pretty well tell you when/where you’ll find whatever you’re looking for
It's not illegal to rehabilitate wildlife to return to the wild or is it?...
Could of soaked that snake get his shed off hydrate him and offer him a meal. Get him rehab a bit so he might have a chance to overcome. Just a thought.
What part of goriga is this
REESES PUFFS REESES PUFFS
Where that at
I'm glad you caught and showed the Racerunner, I appreciate all the snakes and the turtles and really appreciate the Salamanders and other Amphibians, most Herpers are too hung up on snakes only or at least 90% snakes. None of you though show enough lizards!! Even when your in the southwest where there are many awsome lizards to catch, you concentrate so much on snakes it can get to be a little boring. I mean it's cool when you show a bunch of snakes, however some videos you might show ten or more snakes , but only 2 or 3 species, a couple of each is suffice unless its somehow a really exceptional specimen. Try showing more lizards to fill in your videos in addition to the snakes, I have many friends who feel the same way, I mean when your entire episode is of 6 snakes of the same species and 4 more of another and a couple individual of different species, I think instead of showing all six throw in 3 lizards or instead of all 4 toss in a couple lizards, I know many of us would appreciate it.
The variety is what I love about Noah's channel! He's always showing either sallies or Blizzard's, frogs and toads, sirens, turtles, he'll even a lepidoptera or 2( butterfly/moth)! Its what drew me I. To his channel the variety and also from many parts of the country.
I hate how all the ignorant people out there think that every snake is a copperhead and that it has to die.
seems snakes alot easier to find in
georgia than florida,,,no?
second person here love your vids
What does not mean
Sup Noah
Do you have any pet snakes?
Birthday king of mouse that were infected with tapeworms or parasites sometime if you open them up later I bet you'll see a ton of them in as Guts
I never see any coach whips!are they rare or just not common in your area?
There common
herpin in nc try it i cant find any snakes
Must be bad luck I can't find anything in pa either
Again amazing diversity. I don’t think a DOR kingsnake would be a problem if you mark it for educational purposes. After all, the PC crowd is seldom interested in non-fluffy animals. What could that sick Kingsnake have? Could it be disease or poisoned rodents? It is a reminder that diseases exist in the wild too for those AR anti-captivity nutters that claim that things like stuck shed and similar don’t occur in the wild.
Sir,..I rescue and revive. E. Kings. Quite often.,so can you...p.s...use fang proof gloves for venomous .don't get nailed by one.!!!

You must have a affinity with snakes all you have to do is lift up one Rock and you find more snakes than I have in my entire life and believe me it's not for not trying I've spent many hours of my youth searching on many many days don't ever come to Connecticut looking for snakes I don't think even you will be able to find many Connecticut socks for helping oh and the fives snakes I did find my entire life have all been common garters

honestly how people can mistake harmless snakes with venomous even tho they look alike. blows my mind. dont people educate their children on what to look out for. i would get it if you live in places without really dangerous animals. but most of north america. come on man. its probably true some people dont even know bears are dangeroud.
