The Caiman Keep Laying Eggs!

Caiman Creek just continues to offer up joyous surprises... from Marge climbing the fence to move in with Lucifer to the eggs being found all over the smooth front enclosure. Happy to see the Red foot tortoises are all still enjoying their summer camp with unlimited weeds to eat. And now, a glorious Rain Shower ! Fred would be so proud and happy !!!

[@KampKenan]

I think you're right. Thanks Sally!

[@ilichiregius2884]

We can always count on Kenan to not only teach us about caiman care/husbandry but also throw in a little American history with that G. Gordon Liddy and WATERGATE reference.

[@Beefwe]

Your property is truly a tropical oasis. Thank you for sharing it with us, Kenan!

[@Fizzybuzz]

I love a good heavy rain. Sounds so pretty.

Me too!

At least you guys are getting rain!! We haven't had a single good flash flood this year on the Niangua River in Mo, so it's so low in some spots that I can't kayak without getting out and dragging the boat.😅

[@debzacher1332]

That would be so amazing to have the eggs hatch! Almost as amazing as it would be to have slinky babies 😊

That would be cool!

Just read that Caiman can lay up to 40 eggs between July and August. 😱

[@comedianmattrossey]

Kenan, Hell Yeahhhhhh I want you to have baby Caimans hatching, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

[@Count.DeMonet]

I think a basilisk might need a running start before running on water. Kenan just throws them in! 🙃😂😂😂

[@catherinehubbard1167]

It might be helpful to mark the date on individual eggs, since there will probably be more. You need to know when they are due to hatch and which side is up.

[@SSgt_Steve_USMC3-6]

Thanks!

[@KampKenan]

Thank you Sgt!

[@Riceball01]

Kenan, if you're buying your sphagnum moss from the pet store you can save some money by buying it from a hardware store like Lowe's or Home Depot. It's the same thing but cheaper because it's not being marketed as a pet product. In general, when you have identical items and one is marketed for a hobby (plastic models, crafting, pets, etc.) and the other is for general use, the one for the hobby trade is almost always more expensive.

[@debbiestumm511]

Best sphagnum moss is long lasting and clean is from New Zealand... I only buy that kind.

[@Amy1706]

Kenan you truly are the GOAT and my hero i try to help as many reptile owners I can with the knowledge I have gained from you. I want to help the people and mostly the animals.

[@readyalways1414]

Awesome BIG DOGGIE 💯👣

[@bkm2797]

I'd say that's a positive for the caimans and how much they like their new home. Lots of new babies on their way. Thanks Kenan, always a pleasure.

[@bigcally5567]

Shows how happy they are in their environment! Great work kenan

[@cflin4637]

I'm not going to pretend to be any sort of expert, but I think a better sign of their being happy with their environment would be the eggs getting laid in a nest, as they would in their natural environment. I really don't know. I think the reason might not be discontentment rather the eggs aren't fertile. Like I said, not an expert... Just a theory from an expert couch KZbin critic.

[@bigcally5567]

[@brettsoutdoorexperience9422]

I love old school solo Kenan videos.

[@DMOptionalboss]

Heya @Kenan ! So, I know I wasn't the one who smelled the eggs, but just thought I'd let you know that caiman eggs do start to stink naturally. It's reminds me of the smell of like... a bad pastry. It's kind of a rancid butter kinda grossness. We love them, though, so it's hard to judge how the eggs smell. Again, you are the one who is in there smelling this stuff and you know what bad eggs smell like. I always think that smell is really specific. There's not much else that stinks like bad eggs. Anyway, great video! I'm always keeping up with ya my dude. You should go hug some camels soon and collab with your boy Chandler some more. lol

[@thanos8914]

Imagine you and ya friends all sleeping and a giant just comes and rips your house off it’s foundation 😂

[@staceyroberts3468]

How wild was that to catch that Basilisk in mid meal haha. This video is such a great example how your property is set up in such a naturalistic way that everything thrives as they would if they were in the wild!!! Torts eating mango off the ground…. All those eggs 😮😮😮…. Wild, invasive lizards catching lunch 😂😂. I’m so jealous!!! What a cool set up u have, I’m so glad I’ve been able to watch everything develop over the years!

[@suzieau777]

Just watched your video updates and those eggs look like they will have babies, yes I'm crossing my fingers as well😊. It would be cool to see them hatch, those baby turtles are so cute. It's always cool to see how things are going at the kamp, I always laugh so hard when you make fun sounds and voices, because I'm the same way. Love seeing your family just having a great chill day. Sending you and your family lots of love and respect. I can't wait to see more fun and interesting updates.

[@aliciadaugherty9252]

what if you cut the twine off the hay so it makes it easier to access

[@GatorMike79]

I'm here! Better late than never. I think the caiman needs more stuff in there to scratch up a nest. Best of luck tho. Hoping to see some baby caiman catching in a couple months or so.

[@cherylhuot4436]

Is there a reason you don’t have two tunnels? Seems all the critters love it. Looks like there’s plenty of room. Good luck with the eggs.

[@dmartin9565]

Is their pool deep enough for mating? I hope randomly dropping eggs is not a sign of a health issue.

[@jaepena5392]

Yo my guy u da man!! God bless u n ur family broski!!

[@user-mu5ny1ks6t]

I would break down the hay to set up a nesting area. These eggs are likely being dropped to keep the female from getting egg bound.

[@ericbeeman8717]

Use to have a baby specticled caiman back when I was 17 was definitely fun to keep for awhile eventually had get rid of it but was fun while it lasted never had any the new ones I see now had some opportunities to get some or moreletts crocodile babies but ya don't have the room for then even though it would be amazing to have

Do infertile crocodilian eggs look like other reptile slugs ? Because those looked fine to me but candling them should help you tell if they are fertile or not

[@rhock1979]

Just wondering to help you out with Slinky accommodation, will it be safe to put few Red Footed Tortoises in his accommodation so they can eat the plants, so you don’t need to used a simmer in there to cut down the plants, like with the caiman creek or will he attack them?

Do you see a ring on the eggs or have you candle 🕯 them with them being layed all over the place i dont thing they are fertile. She has zerro interest to protect them

Kenneth and you supposed to candle the eggs to make sure the embryos from the Cayman creek is up on the top of the egg or does it not matter😊😊

[@Sammie-Lou-Miss-UK]

He said that they hadn’t been laid before he popped out to do some errands so I don’t think they hadn’t been sat out for long plus u can see were they had bark stuck to them on the bottom so they didn’t look as tho they had rolled at all… if they were older than 6ish hours (as the embryo takes some time to attach its awl it doesn’t happen right away) then he probably would have candled them… he may still have done after the video though just not done it in the video xxxx

Hey, I just wanted to give my two cents on the eggs. You hit it on the head with how you incubat the eggs with what they need. You should dig a hole as much as you can. 4 feat wide mabey three deep . Then lay a few inches of gravel. Then, backfill with compost, the decomposing waste will create what she wants to lay her eegs in.
