Bioactive African egg eating snake enclosure

[@palomajean3967]

😳 5 MONTHS!!! it feels like just yesterday I was clicking on your video and being like "What a snake!?!?!" 😂 time really does fly 😩

[@Emiology]

It doesn’t feel like it’s been that long at all! 2 months max 😅

[@xxkenzie_x]

I KNOW RIGHT!?!? I simply can’t wrap my head around that 😅 it sounds so unrealistic. 5 months!? Nope. Definitely only a few weeks 😳😂

[@tatum_belle8858]

I know right, I feel like I saw that video a week ago😂

[@person8979]

Rewatching this, because I got an egg eater snake now and want to make his enclosure nice like this 🥰🥰

[@marzettik]

Rue is such a pretty snake. She’s totally upgraded to condo living snake edition. Lol.

[@TheTeamTuttle]

This is so amazing! You’ve impressed me once again, with another one of you amazing enclosures 😊😊

[@elwduecentonove6080]

lol this was the first time I benefited from a trigger warning, so thanks! I have zero snakes or reptiles but this video was so amazing and interesting! I immediately liked Rue when you introduced her to us and I’m glad to see her staying in such a curated enclosure :) have a nice day Emi!

[@amandadeprey4250]

It is absolutely gorgeous !!! I am still working on a bio active set up for my leopard gecko! It’s been a slow and expensive project t but I’m so excited for it to be done

[@thatdefaultpro6171]

I can’t take advantage of it, but something cool could be to have her security camera livestream for channel members or something 🤷‍♂️ idk just had the idea :)

[@Emiology]

I’ve thought about doing that for the mice I think it would be cool! Just got to figure out how. I don’t think Rue would be very interesting as she only comes out from hiding about once a week lol

[@ReptileJen]

Rue's tank looks great! I'd recommend putting a piece of bark in her water so if any insects fall in they won't drown - you could use any spare cork to cover the humid hide (if it still bothers you lol) Rue is adorable! Seems like she's really enjoying her upgrade :)

[@Emiology]

Yes I definitely need to do that! I’ve placed a big pebble in there because they started drowning but I’ll be on the lookout for a good bit of cork

[@ReptileJen]

@@Emiology Isopods aren't the brightest lol. So jealous of that beautiful piece of cork you found haha

[@alfiewright3314]

Hi em I really like this enclosure and I think you do a really good job on keeping the animals in top top shape your channel has grown so much well done

[@Kittypettle]

Awww Rue is so sweet! Love her set up loads. I have a couple frogs and one of them is named Rue 😅💗

[@Teigansouth11]

Rue is so pretty❤

[@aardfay]

Hey Emi don't forget to tape the holes on the inside of the enclosure too. If the CUC escapes from those holes, they will likely get stuck on the tape too if it's just on the outside. Just in case you forgot to do it

[@Emiology]

Don't worry I did! The clip was just me with my whole head stuck in the tank trying to see what I was doing lol

[@aardfay]

@@Emiology Nice ^^ thanks for letting me know it's all good

[@vixxenreigns]

I do miss the snakes that my ex-husband and I had when our son was really little. We got the first one which was a snow corn, then a sinaloan milk snake, a male and female Brazilian Rainbow boas which the male was still a baby and the female was around 3 years old. And last but not least a hypo jungle Colombian red-tailed boa which was a baby as well.

[@diane9693]

Great setup! Rue will be camouflaged 🐍🤎

[@lucassteele007]

Not her shed next to the tank! 😆

[@belindaj1953]

Loved the night cam!

[@maryoleary5044]

Just saying to all of us - especially with you're weekly shop! (washing up liquid, washing powder, all those crappy plug-in sprays! Also, make-up, body sprays. Please check out BUAV/Leaping Bunny (LABEL MUST BE ON THE ACTUAL PRODUCT!). Keep loving little animals too! 🥰

[@mousenation3867]

That’s a fabulous set up even better than the last one you did it’s amazing

[@Emiology]

I learnt a lot from the last one and now I want to redo it 😂

[@imaginedogtraining4355]

Lovely! What is the exo-terra size?

[@tvbra1nr0t]

THE ENCLOSURE LOOKS AWESOME

[@vivianelabelle3992]

Great job! This enclosure is beautiful.😊❤🧡💛💚🐍👍👏

[@tatum_belle8858]

These videos have taught me sooooo much about so many different animals. Thanks for doing what you do❤

[@samhind4231]

Great video your enclosure looks beautiful I love the time and dedication that u put into it ! I bet your snake will love it ! 💕❤️💕

[@crystalbrewster5265]

Make sure you tape the inside of the vent or they’ll climb in and get stuck to the tape.

[@Emiology]

I did don’t worry ☺️

[@aralynrivers7162]

Ugh it’s beautiful! This is so exciting. You did a great job, and I definitely will be taking some inspiration from this setup if I ever get an egg eating snake :)

[@sophiebentley2140]

Wowww it looks amazing 😍

[@spockezri]

awwww what a cute snake :)

[@TeriyakiDior]

Such a beautiful snake!! 🥹😊

[@yeayea7960]

Love ur vids always makes me smile

[@Art.d3co]

Amazing

[@levimain4552]

Love this video as usual :) xx

[@badguy70464]

Could I use eco earth is it safe for egg eating snakes

[@childishkayia4818]

Hi Em, I was wondering if you’ve seen Victoria Rachel’s video that was uploaded today. I was wondering if maybe sometime you could do a mouse version?

[@PeacheIIe]

How many bags of clay balls did you use for the drainage layer? 🌿 The enclosure looks so lovely!

[@VelvetvineEquestrain]

Hello my favourite KZbinr just wondering how are you and great video why am I surprised it was good though

[@elf334]

if i get the same exact UVB as you, the ProT5 2.5%, how far away from the tank do i need to put it? if the tank is 18 inches high, can i put it right on top, over the mesh?

[@Emiology]

Arcadia have diagrams on their website telling you which one will be suitable for the distance you’ve got 😊

[@elf334]

@@Emiology great thank you! does putting it over mesh mean i have to make the light stronger?

[@rylenvanderhoek2834]

Is Rue more of a viewing pet? are you able to handle her often?

[@Emiology]

Yes, she doesn't mind being held once she's out but she's not a big fan of being picked up initially

[@bigegghead4510]

I have a question about rats so can anybody please answer it. I have 4 rats of my own and for the past few months I have seen people giving there rats hay to eat or hay to nest in. I even saw it in on a rat website. I'm pretty sure rats can't digest hay because they're stomach isn't made for it. What are your thoughts?

[@Emiology]

Rats won’t eat much hay they mostly just use it as nesting material. If they do swallow some it’s not that they can’t digest it and it’ll sit in their stomach forever, rather will just come out the other end undigested

[@spockezri]

rats are good about knowing what they can and can't eat :) mine wouldn't try to eat their straw hut, for example, because they had things that were better for them to munch on (like their beloved cardboard LMAO).

[@GuidingLightDogs]

How big will Rue end up being?

[@Emiology]

She’s fully grown already ☺️

[@rylenvanderhoek2834]

How much times a day do you clean Rue's enclosure?

[@Emiology]

It's bioactive so I don't really have to clean it, i'll take out uneaten eggs and poop occasionally when needed :)

[@theratfamily3297]

Hi! This is totally off topic but I need some help. So I have two female rats that are almost 2 years old. And all of the sudden their cage started stinking really bad, I just cleaned it 2 days ago and it already smells the way it should on cage cleaning day. I have a single critter nation cage, they are both litter trained, they eat oxbow adult rat food and I give them a green mush supplement. I use kiln dried, dust extracted cedar bedding that I’ve used forever. I also took all of the fleece out except a snuggle sack. If anyone has any tips, I could really use some! Thanks! Have a great day! 🐀

[@marianova07]

Cedar bedding is very bad, never ever use it, even if its kd and dust extracted « The wood is actually emitting aromatic hydrocarbons (phenols) and acids that act as natural pesticides. When mice and other rodents are exposed to cedar mulch, chips, or shavings, the toxic phenols are absorbed through the respiratory tract and enter the blood system, fatally damaging the liver. »

[@KristenGarcia-yf4zk]

what size enclosure did you use?

[@Emiology]

Large Exo terra

[@tieflingcorpse9817]

doesnt the snake scare the mice and rats you have? /gen

[@Emiology]

No, they have no idea she’s even there

[@jieboge466]

Hello Nice to meet you ! My name is Ge , I am engaged in making a warm home for the cat. I know you really love your cats,and want to give it the best. So I am writing the message to check if we could do a product review if you want to using the cat house as your cat's home?

[@darkye_]

I’m not allowed to get a snake. My parents are worried about it escaping the house and it just biting us.

[@Emiology]

Rue can’t physically bite anything lol they have no teeth

[@darkye_]

@@Emiology Interesting
