Thank you :)

Thanks mate!

Good idea! We feed oura clover from the garden! I've tried cress a few times but the tortoises demolish it too quickly it doesn't get a chance to grow 🤣

@@ReptiChat I looked some stuff up you could probably grow dandelions they are fast growers might be able to keep up with the tortoises appetite

Awesome! Thanks, I will have a look into it! ❤️

Thanks bud! Gotta love the dogs 😅

Thanks Heather! The mourning geckos eggs are on top of the Viv as they incubate fine at room temperature. They would hatch fine in the enclosure but I don't want the babies to get eaten so I try to remove them when I find them. The viper gecko eggs need a bit more stability in temperatures so they are in the incubator :)

Thanks mate! 🙏

Gotta include the fluffy ones!

Sorry, Fi, I'll remember that for the next one! 😂

Thanks dude!

@@ReptiChat the ackie enclosure is legit.

Cheers! Definitely one of my favourites!

They really are! And generally really chilled when handling them too!

I'm not sure it's worth making an update video but I've successfully hatched 4 viper gecko eggs so far with 12 more in the incubator :)

Thanks dude 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks! ❤️

🤣🤣🤣

I'm loving Herping this year! Have found loads!

All the lil lizards!

Ooooh that's a great question! I'm not sure, maybe message tom on Instagram and ask!

I did contemplate a window but I was doing it in a rush 🤣

Another day of me setting the premiere time wrong 🤦‍♂️

My local builders merchant 👌

I love my red shorts 😅

Thanks dude! 🙏

Thanks Mate! I learned alot!

😅 well I appreciate you sticking around! 🙏

Thanks Fi! ❤️

It really is! Cookie round two talking cryptids maybe 👀

Thanks so much! 🙏 Glad you are enjoying the content!

Nope, just bought them from my local builders merchant 👍

Welcome back any time bud! Absolutely loved this chat!

Wasnt it just! I really enjoyed the chat!

You are welcome! It's definitely a great trip out! And an adult ticket is under £20 so affordable too!

Maybe next time you are over! ❤️

We love Dirk!

Thanks mate! 🙏 Next one uses the Mics 🤣

Didn't see a water monitor? Did see the caimen lizards!

Thanks mate, you definitely need to make the trip!

Plenty of woodland behind my house 🙏

Not sure if you are referring to the smooth snake or the great crested newt. The smooth snake we left as soon as we saw it. The great crested newt I had permission to relocate it as there was a risk of danger to Life where I found it.

It was really cool!

They are doing great in the terrarium, no problems finding food. Remember how big the wild is and they manage to find food ❤️

@@ReptiChat Yeah Ur Right

Thank you! ❤️

Appreciate it!

Possibly, I was under the impression it was female but I could be wrong!

@@ReptiChat I first discovered newts as a boy and I am currently 71, so have had a love of amphibians and nature a very long time. I am also a member of SAVE THE FROGS! The stripe in the tail is one of the signs you look for in the male, and in the breeding season it becomes wider, and the crest grows much higher. It also develops a crest on its tail. I can tell you too that this species of newt tend to use the same ponds or lakes, though in this case it sounded as if it had already been accidentally moved. This is a problem for this species and same goes for the Common Toad that returns to the same breeding sites.

Thanks! I didn't know that! Yep, unfortunately this one was moved on a huge pile of old pallets hence NCRW advising me to relocate him to my pond at home. Hopefully he is doing well, I haven't seen any sign of him since relocating but hopefully that's a good thing and he has settled in nicely!

@@ReptiChat Great Crested Newts spend more time in the water than the other species but if they leave the water and come on land they start to lose their aquatic phase appearance and become the terrestrial form. In this species its crest would almost disappear leaving just a ridge line along the back. It will not grow again until the next breeding season. For some reason this male newt was already on land in the pallettes. What will happen now is difficult to say. If he feels the urge to go back to the pond he was in before he will leave to attempt to find it, if he feels he has finished with the aquatic phase for this year he will leave the water but remain somewhere in the vicinity of your pond, if you are lucky he will decide to stay in the pond you have provided a bit longer, in which case he may grow his crest again and will be on the lookout for females of his species. Whatever happens he will leave the water either sooner or later this summer. This newt hibernates on land, as do the other British species. They live on land for a few months before hibernation.

@@bardofely well I have learnt something new today! Thanks for taking the time to comment!

😅 gotta love some pitvipers!

Who knows! 🤷‍♂️

I know right! How odd 😅

No slow worms? Used to find these as a kid (30 years ago) but never failed to find them.

None at all! But never fear I still have time to find them!

Thanks mate!
