Yaa! My question got picked 🤗 Thanks so much Kenan and awesome job with the video!!

Thank you for asking that question Chris!

@@KampKenan I'm wondering how long it took you to perfect your hatching methods.

HI KAMP KENAN! WHENEVER I'M WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS IT MAKES ME FEEL ALL WARM AND GOOD INSIDE. KEEPUP THE GREAT WORK AND TORTOISES

[@sylviaschuur1581]

Hi Kenan, loved the video!! If you plant merrigolds around areas where you dont want ants, it will certainly help lessen the ant problem. Also spraying eucalyptus mixed with lemon will help against spiders and other creepy crawlies. Have a great day😀

[@vbinkk1385]

My grandfather always planted marigolds around his tomatoes to keep the bugs & squirrels away

[@UndiciGiga]

Awesome video as always. Started my channel thanks to your

What do you do with the hatched tortoises/turtles? Do You sell them, do you donate them, do you set them in the wild or do you keep e’m? Btw absolute LOVE your video’s Keep it up kenan!🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Aww awesome seeing those baby turtles. Oh don't forget to wash the dishes, or Kate will be kicking your ass 😆

[@richardbarfield4322]

I came across your channel through Chandlers Wild Life after watching his videos and you were next up and I watched and have been watching a bunch, great channel. I do have a question, I can’t seem to find info in your videos, what ever happened to the Albino tortoise you received as a gift? I remember seeing the original owner doing research on Angle and haven’t seen anything since. Hope you incubator situation doesn’t get out of control with all the insects. Love the channel. Always informative beyond what most other channels when it’s comes to reptiles, of course there are a select few who are great and you always seem to learn something new whenever you visit them. But thanks for the great information and hopefully I can find out what happened to your beautiful albino.

[@tiffanyfreels-louthen2853]

I love what you do!! Thanks for always educating!!

Thank you Tiffany!

How long should the hatchling stay in the incubator? And what do they eat? And when to feed?

[@deadbettafish8493]

Cool video, the babies were adorable!

[@hollylanders8258]

Our water turtles laid 2 eggs in their aquaruim. There is no sand , just small stones . Can we take the eggs out and put them in an incubator or are they a lost cause. should we change their tank to include a sandy area for eggs to be laid in. This is new to us

[@radina86]

hi all! thanks for adding me to the group! my son saved 3 turtle eggs from their dying mother in the park and the security gave them to him. i am trying to understand if the eggs are viable and how to keep them alive. when i put light i see its red but i see no veins yet. we believe the mamma laid them today...help?

[@stephenmiller6191]

That's so awesome! As always thanks for the info! Cant wait for these little ones to become available!

[@KampKenan]

Thanks Stephen!

[@rousefire]

3 months ago a red ear slider laid eggs in my yard . Dug a hole in hard clay soil . The drought has made the soil hard as a rock . Yesterday I delicately dug to the eggs and some were hatching . I moved the clutch in a bucket and buried them in potting soil .Placed the bucket on a heating pad set to medium . Four have hatched . I moved them to a plastic tub with an inch of water and an island . Am I messing up ? The closest water source is a creek about 75 yds away and across a busy street . I plan on releasing them , maybe keep a couple as pets . I dont think they would have been able to dig themselves out of the baked clay soil and make it to the creek .

[@dianelyman1064]

what do you do while keeping the newborn turtle that you kept in the box for the week? I want to know what to do to keep it alive and feeding it. when can it be put into water and feed

[@NathansWildLife]

What type of incubator do you have by the way I’ve been subscribed for 6 years sence first grade now in seventh.

[@pramodjadhav3863]

Please make a video on how to hatch turtle egg's without incubator

[@sammylong2051]

Hi Kanan!!! Love your videos!!! I have 10 eggs in my incubator... first time incubating tortoise eggs!!! I have sulcatas.... live on Oahu Hawaii. She laid.... dug up the eggs the next day put them in the incubator May 8... I had one hatch on August 8... no sign of the others hatching. My question is how long does it take to hatch, and do they all hatch about the same time? I'm worried that the rest won't hatch , but not sure if I should be worried or not!!?? Thank you!!

[@sujittrarittanan9058]

Thank you for the helpful tips💖

[@felizshaw192]

Your animals are amazeing

[@liltrippyanimal]

I wanna be a breeder in the future and I was wondering, where do you get an incubator? Also is it easier or harder to do everything by hand by not using an incubator? I feel like I need to know more about the eggs, like people tell me things but I feel like I'm missing something.

[@life_loyalty_trust]

You can also use a wine cooler or old fridge that's died by putting a heating element in a bucket of water on bottom to heat and create humitity. Look on Google to get more info and don't just jump into it unless your confident of your knowledge that will be very helpful although trial and error is the best way of learning in my opinion with knowledge of course good luck hope this helps

[@mariadorame6416]

those are a beautiful little tortoises.

[@rebeccafriend4854]

They are so cute! Love your videos!

[@KampKenan]

Thanks Rebecca!

[@lisawinnard5682]

What do you do with them once they have hatched? Do you keep them all? Do you put them back in the wild? You said you take them due to flooding in Florida. So it sounds like you are taking them to help them. But then what?

[@debbieoakes268]

Thank you. Enjoy your day.

[@PatriotShay]

How do you know when you have to give up on the eggs? I’ve got Russian Tortoise eggs.. two from 12/19/20 and 2 from 2/20/21. I don’t see veins when shining a flashlight from above. I’m afraid nothing is going to happen but don’t want to give up too early

[@eyla0824]

I have a question please. How come when you see the videos of the baby sea turtles hatching and running down the beach to the water. They don’t have tummy sack umbilicus that you showed us which can make them teeter totter ?

[@KampKenan]

You’re seeing my babies in the incubator and they are in an early stage of hatching. In the wild, they would hatch out of the egg but stay in the nest until the yolk has been absorbed. Once they have the strength usually all the babies dig out of the nest together:) that’s why you don’t see yolks with sea turtles hatching out of the nest.

[@mememachine2408]

I've seen videos of People feeding sulcatas the egg shells from chickens to give them calcium is this safe since they are herbavores

[@kajza8091]

Hello, I am trying to incubate tortoise egg in home made incubator. Humidity is about 75%. But I have to almost open the lid. Do you think that it is ok when the humidity is not changing and temperature is 29°c with almost opened lid. Or i should try make more holes and let it closed? I don't know what to do.

[@renzcalayag1667]

Thats my dream kenan!! To have incubator with lots of turtle/tortoise eggs!.. I hope someday I'll be like you! 😇

Hai.... I have 20days old tortoise egg.... While I am shifting it to the incubator I have turned it. Is that egg still can be hatched.....?

[@life_loyalty_trust]

Why didn't you take out the yolk spill in substrate from that rotten egg? Won't that cause molding or bugs?

I have a red eared slider nest. The eggs are fertile and almost ready to hatch. I was candeling an egg this am to check for movement. I was holding end to end and I shined the light on the egg and it popped and a horizontal Crack appeared. Egg started leaking. I was not squeezing it at all. Does this mean its ready to hatch? The turtle moved when I shined the light and I'm pretty sure that is why it cracked. Please help...I don't want it to due. I did mot put it back in the nest. I have it in a box with dirt and set the egg on a moist paper towel.

Hey Kenan! My question regards my corn snake. He is very aggressive and is having shedding issues for about a month now. He has shed skin stuck over his nares and I’m really worried about him. I’ve tried soaking him and giving him a humid hide but nothing has helped so far. Because he is aggressive, I’m scared to try to take the shed skin off manually. Could you make a video about stuck sheds and how to remedy it?

[@life_loyalty_trust]

What about some type of log or something that the snake can rub on to remove the she'd? Idk hardly anything about snakes but just a thought. Hope all is well and food luck check Google she's amazing lol

Shockingly seemingly against all odds my sulcata just laid eggs. I didn't even think she was old enough or big enough, I have been at this house for less than a year, I have hard soil and it's becoming winter here in AZ. It's weird because the male escaped like a week ago, I wonder if that triggered her or something. Oh and I think the male was only maybe 3 years at most

Aren't turtles' genders dependent on the incubation temperature? So if you keep them at a fixed temperature, don't the babies all come out the same gender?

Same I started up a channel because of kenan as well.. also kenan you should start a "is this reptile right for me" series because most people don't understand some reptiles don't make great pets and are better off left in the wild!! Much safer for the animal!! Like example Savannah monitor those reptiles are so hard to keep alive and most people kill them within a year it's so sad!! People need to be educated on specific reptiles and the career requirements!!! Please think about this!!
