Huge Rainstorm has flooded my Reptile Sanctuary!

[@NocturnalAquarist]

Kenan I love that you're pointing out the benefits of the leaves and needles falling into the water!!! We use leaf litter and drift wood in aquariums because as they break down they leave tannins in the water, giving it that tea look. Tannins are amazing for many purposes, but some of the best among them are anti oxidant, anti microbial, anti fungal, anti bacterial properties! Much like the mud with snapping turtle and other turtle species shells, that natural liter has countless benefits that we don't realize help these animals in captivity! Also algae in the water bowl to an extant can be beneficial, it helps to break down nitrates & ammonia along with other pollutants. Some species of Iguana will scrape algae off of rocks in the wild for food, so could be a free treat for them in your setups too!! Thank you for all the amazing work you do man, and I hope this fish/aquatic nerdgasm helps with something!

[@KampKenan]

Great comment! Thanks for sharing!

[@benjaminburton45042]

I love when you do the walkthroughs of the Kamp. So appreciate of Scotty Cranmer for bringing me to your channel. Two of the best guys on KZbin.

[@conchitamay4859]

Thank you for letting us enjoy you and all your babies. I really enjoy it too

[@kaleepreston3020]

The animals are amazing, but all the plants are to die for!!. 😍😍😍

[@jessicalyle1455]

Oh those baby turtles a dream of mine. Ty for sharing your blessing of a sanctuary!!!

[@TheHeadown]

The Kamp is looking better than ever. Thank you for the tour of your little piece of heaven. 👍

[@floridagal150]

I adore the way you love all of your animals. You can just see how happy they are to be around you. My fave has to be when you were petting Nostradamas. I've seen the feeding tours and it never gets old. You definitely never run out of chores. That was a cool in depth tour after the rains. Your passion for these awesome reptiles keeps me coming back. Thank you!

[@valrdjem]

It always makes me laugh when the tortoises see you and you get the slowest storming of the armored troops.

[@carschmn]

BuJu Blades “Daddy!”

[@thomasb4467]

BuJu Blades I was thinking the same thing! Like puppies, but slower.

[@Littlewings1211]

I like to call it "returning to the mothership" 😂

[@_peepee_]

theyre all saying in unison “hi dad”

[@bgs5272]

Don’t know how I started watching. Not overly fond of lizards but your enthusiasm is catching. Thanks for sharing. 🤗 love the habitats.

[@michaelpugh4894]

You are an awesome reptile keeper. I have been a reptile lover since about 10 years old. Keep up the great work breeding and taking care of your animals.

[@Littlewings1211]

My sister has bought her kids a Hermann's Tortoise for Christmas. It's a complete surprise for them and they're picking it up on Christmas eve. I cannot wait to see their faces when they see it - I haven't been this excited for Christmas eve since I was a kid!

[@staceyroberts3468]

I never get tired of these walks around Kamp!!!! Always my fav 👌 all the landscaping is looking so good!!!! Wish it was my yard 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@cactusng]

Thirty minutes of Kamp Kenan? Hell yeah!

[@MsTiggler]

so cute when gwapo nods his head like "what up"🥰

[@EasyModeFishing]

A ton of rain during the dry season seems like a blessing

[@Ochibason]

The gurguling is a sound from Heaven lol things are working Love it.

[@cynthialbell521]

Hi Kenan I enjoy the your tour to check out on how all your reptiles are doing. They are all ok, just hungry. I bet the turtles enjoy the extra water, and mud. Cindy

[@janiceellery1653]

few days ago we got four to six inches of rain here in Broward County. It is very important if you have an outdoor enclosure to have drainage. Baby iguanas and box turtles can drown if there is deep standing water. You have to plan for mother nature's surprises !

[@monicaw5036]

Those tortoises honestly know your voice and come running from where ever. Love it! ❤

[@GregWittstockThePondGuy]

Aquascape ponds looking great!

[@KampKenan]

Haha! Just posted a IG video on front ponds...then saw this message! They are amazing!

[@loisjones2158]

[@anugrahcahya5964]

The reasons why I love & subscribe your channel is because your kamp, the entire animal that you have, the plants and it's look like a big realistic terrarium. Awesome job man! Respect from Indonesian fans.

[@CindyHuot]

Hey Kenan!! Love gettin' the tour...never gets old!!! Hope you and the fam are all well, can't forget about Tom either!!! Cheers to ya bud!!!

[@felicias9265]

Always so fun to follow you around🐢🦎

[@pompeyreptiles2032]

Amazing sanctuary the attention to detail is just awesome great video content!

[@God-qi1fr]

Can you do a video where you go over the origins of how you got your animals and their backstories? It would be very interesting to see.

[@azazelthedark1]

Your Aldabra is so beautiful, might be a dream pet for me in 20 years when I have the space for such an amazing animal and people to care for it when it inevitably outlives me.

[@gabc6353]

The property looks great after the hurricane cleanup. Great job. 👍❤️

[@wesleyryanshenefield]

I've been there in maui, it's in Lahaina the tree is well over 100 years old and the Hawaiians use to put Mason jars full of water and tie theme to the aerial roots to train the tree I'm dropped the roots where they wanted. lahaina use to be the capital of Hawaii beautiful place to visit for sure

[@gg110888]

I just love Kamp walkabouts with ya Kenan. Thanks for taking us along. :)

[@vicaroo001]

Lola & Guapo nods = my favorite

[@GRGFishin]

I agree on the tannin in the water it known to be beneficial for fish and builds up their immune system and for the algue it cant harm them its a plant if anything it makes the water better by increasing the oxygen levels in it but not all algue is good! Love your videos keep up the good work

[@Helveteshit]

@Kamp Kenan, That ficus probably could do with some trimming, to concentrate its growth closer to the trunk so it focuses on those tendrils that you like.

[@briny_lizard8897]

Thank you for your sulcata videos. My son wants one and he has watched your video on sulcata tortoises I think 10 times. HE IS SIX!!

[@deltabravolima1514]

I love cichlids!! Bumblebees were always my favorite along with the electric blues! I also love the South American cichlids called Bolivian Rams! They are beautiful! My all time favorite.

[@gregosmile2009]

i love you kenan i love the animals and i love your video's kamp kenan is super awesome and educative !!!!

[@angieann3380]

Im a tad bit jealous of your beautiful sanctuary.. lol I’m playing.. you have a home and yard and animals you should be super proud of!!! Your hard work is so admirable 😁🐢❤️

[@estevanguerrero5828]

Your life is goals brotha love the way you keep your animals

[@elizabethgallaher1919]

So glad I found you threw You Tube.

[@hollys89]

What about putting some kind of netting or screen right there at the base of the rocks?? It will still filter through but catch the leaves? Idk just a thought. You're ALOT better at this than I am but have a great day! They all certainly look happy and healthy! Enjoy

[@GrimDan1789]

Lola and Guapo are my favorite.

[@TexasJungle]

Man sorry that happened brother but on a positive side you have a larger area now for you and the animals to swim in!! Thanks for keeping me going! My goal is 1000 by new year!!

[@danischulze8021]

Wow!! Kamp kenan is a dream place for me....its what I imagine heaven looks like!! Seriously you have made an amazing beautiful place and you should be so proud......thank you so much for sharing with us...EXCELLENT video. Have a wonderful day!

[@KampKenan]

[@alyshasterkins7917]

Love your channel. You do an amazing job. Can't wait to move to a bigger property. I will have my pond one day. Have a great day.

[@checkm8852]

Kenan you are a complete boss. I would never have the balls to grab a reptile like that

[@lucya3359]

Those new houses look so smart 🙂

[@rmontalvo64]

I can just sit here and watch you all day. Well, actually I’ve started watching your videos from the beginning all over again!! More people need to subscribe, I don’t know why they haven’t....anyways, great video and information Kenan❤️🐢

[@lynnbonica4342]

[@astridheuvel8875]

[@belizeguy]

Oh, Rain when unexpected is nice. We won't get significant rain until Mid June. DRY Season is here in the Yucatan.

[@kutzoffdchain]

[@deepharrow8520]

[@ellieyoung7540]

Oh no hope the animals are all ok x

[@sallyrutledge4726]

LOVE this channel !

[@xXGrifterXx]

march of the tortoises is always a swell sight!

[@TheVictoriaMakeup]

Those cichlids look awesome

[@patshhi4620]

Speaking of sterile environments, I read about an unscientific study about kids and dogs. It said homes with dogs and young kids - the kids have less allergies later in life because when they were young they came in constant contact with dogs who had all sorts of germs, and the more contact helped their immune system get stronger.

[@riderky1507]

In another unscientific study, homes with kids in houses where people smoke cigarettes- the kids are less likely to get lung cancer and less likely to want to smoke because when they were young they came in constant contact with cigarette smoke which have nicotine in them and it helped there immune system be stronger.

[@beverlyjensen443]

I recently read, in a pollinator group, that bees prefer puddles to clean-water bowls of water (& marbles). It was said the puddles are mineral rich and may include vitamins and other stuff they need. So, I suspect your beliefs are valid.

[@Scales13]

I got to see the Banyan trees over in Hawaii and I even got to see the biggest one in the world! very similar to that ficus they are MASSIVE!

[@JanieAmericanIrish7777]

Ants are no joke ! Even the little black ones. I had a pet Squirrel for 14 years before it got sick and died. He slept in my room in a cage . One day I'm looking at his cage and I see a piece of corn walking out of his cage to the floor then down my heating vent. I thought I was seeing stuff.😳 So I got down on the carpet to see what was going on and I seen a small trail of black ants . Then all the sudden I feel this incredible burning on my legs. I look down and about twenty ants are biting me ! Talk about jumping up and freaking out ! I ran down the stair grabbed my vacuum and sucked what I could find up ! Then moved the cage and sprayed . I will never forget it because I thought they didn't bite. Boy ! Did my legs itch ! So I hope they aren't biting him.

[@JanieAmericanIrish7777]

@Vada Minot 😆 I can laugh now ...

[@gg110888]

Those baby Rhinos were all snuggled up, cute. :)

[@kimhellard1628]

Awesome video love it thanks

[@TraceRollins]

Hey Kenan can you do another Hermanns video?? They’re so cool and under appreciated. Love your channel!!

[@zacm9165]

At least your new pond has a lot of water now probably

[@TheMackEvil]

I just love when you post New videos.. I drop everything haha only when im maintaining the fishes ill w8 🐠🐡🐟

[@crystalbutterfly4812]

such a great place and you take such good of the animals, I would not do the lake with alligators just keep to turtles and tortoises and lizards

[@jeffpelphrey3953]

Kenan, how about a small screen to keep bamboo leave out of pump. Wouldn't have to move rock and reach in. Just scrape away. Just an idea.

[@sarkavajnerova2817]

Kenan, you always show us small fishes, but what about kois? How are they?

[@twoturtletom]

Wow, all of those marginal plants make the pond look like it's been there years! I'd love to see a "1-year later" comparison between when it went in and now!

[@Littlewings1211]

Hahaha, total old man moment in this video Kenan. Just walking around your garden yelling "you hear that gurgle?!" 😂😂

[@FuzzyDuckling94]

I don’t know much in regards to reptiles.. but with fish you would be right about how over sterilising their water is bad! Leaf litter and other organic things that fall into the water increase tannins in the water. Tannins are proven to have antioxidant properties and help with fishes immune systems I can imagine it would be similar for reptiles though! Plus the consumption of small amounts of pathogens definitely help build stronger immune systems

[@Mike-iq7hu]

You should maybe get the mould in the top of that enclosed fixed

[@cjfamily4040]

Love your videos

[@bobbistevens746]

Wish I was able to get one of the baby Rhinos!! Maybe someday!
