Thank you!

[@RandBReptiles]

This is certainly one of my favorite videos, Matt's collection is amazing. - Ryan

[@FusionExotics]

This was awesome, i have been waiting for years to find a video like this on youtube showcasing someone with much more obscure/rarer type snakes. If there is one thing i could add to this is that i wish you had taken some time to get some good quality B roll shots of the animals rather than just stand there with the camera and barely showing what the animal looks like up close

[@RandBReptiles]

That's a fair criticism and I wish we did too. We will definitely try to get better shots next time.

[@FusionExotics]

@@RandBReptiles awesome, are you gonna do a video on stan and larry's collection someday?

[@RandBReptiles]

It is a goal but we will see. Maybe matt can put in a good word for us

Awesome looking snakes !! Never seen 3\4 of them ,not into pythons and boas so these are amazing to me . Of course im a sucker for the bright colors. The grey and yellow Vietnamese is beautiful. I love the idea of the lower temp animals . Who didnt have a red rat snake and what a great pet they where to get something with extreme coloration and to have the traits of the great red rat thats amazing. Great video much appreciate the look at your collection and wish you much great success and happiness with your passion. And yes i want one of each much like everyone watching so make as many babys as you can. The only thing with snakes is cohabitation i havent had snakes for 20 years or so and have been researching and would like a nice livingroom display. So diurnal,im up north so the temp cooler,but would love to have more than one so im leaning towards fancy garters . The problem is i see you guys with these amazing animals. The last king snake i had for 23years so im trying to get some info before deciding and videos like this are very informative.

[@RandBReptiles]

The mandarins are a favorite of ours as well. We love seeing diverse collections.

[@mattcleaver2049]

Blown away. What an awesome collection

[@lonesteelwolfjacksonlonewo3412]

[@joen714]

Who makes those racks

[@js92css]

What were the specific species that didn't musk and could live with no added heat source?

[@RandBReptiles]

I'll run that by Matt and let you know.

Dione's Ratsnake

[@El-ng7mb]

Dion's or steppe

[@donteague614]

Is Matt using cypress mulch as a substrate? I stopped because it is so dusty. Has he had any issues with it over the years? Hey Matt I read! I do not rely on care sheets!! I want to know the animals natural history and will take mental notes. I am constantly doing my own research, I just gotta know. My mother instilled a love of learning about wildlife through reading and have a hunger for knowledge .

[@RandBReptiles]

I will pass the message on

[@RandBReptiles]

100% organic cypress mulch is used. No issues with dust but need to avoid the blends as contain other woods including pallets that are ground up to use as filler.

[@donteague614]

@@RandBReptiles thank you for the info. Yea cypress mulch is way cheaper than aspen, if he's using it I am going back to it.

[@El-ng7mb]

Is he still selling

[@rickyny78]

I was hoping to see an Elaphe Carinata Yonaguniensis. Do you know if Matt has any?

[@RandBReptiles]

King rats? He has a few babies. We show one in the video but the adults are with one of his partners

[@rickyny78]

@@RandBReptiles I want a King Rat Yonaguniensis. Is a subspecies of the Elaphe Carinata Carinata.

[@sodalines]

i love ring pythons as babys. but when they get older they dont look as nice.

[@btoddw2]

Lol, somebodys got little girls in the house. I have a "clutch" of children so i would know.

[@beverlymeetze8312]

How do you spell the Deon rat snake?

[@RandBReptiles]

I will ask matt

[@beverlymeetze8312]

I found it finally...it's Dione Rat Snake

[@tathagataghosh8786]

Sir, which species are these ?

[@RandBReptiles]

There are several different species of old and new world Ratsnakes

[@tathagataghosh8786]

@@RandBReptiles thanks Sir

[@Alexask123456]

so sad to see this shitty way to keep these day active hunting snakes, only in the US, if it was here in Europe the goverment would come home to you and take all your animals and give you big fine for animal abuse as its illegal to keep them in so small cramped cages its discusting.
