Meet My Brazilian Rainbow Boa, Bowie

[@SnarleySteve]

I had two "orange phase" Brazilians... They are calm gorgeous snakes... Awesome pets... They get good size but not too big to handle alone... The perfect snake for a pet...

[@saveriopanaccione996]

Rainbow boas are on my future list

[@samz-hs2xp]

I adopted a Anery Brazilian Rainbow Boa a few months back and this video helped a ton! Bowie is so beautiful and definitely one of my favorites 💕

[@johnschlesinger2009]

Beautiful boa. You are the first I have seen who captures the iridescence on camera! But your viv, while adequate for the snake, doesn't do it justice. A beautiful snake deserves a beautiful viv (even if its only for the owner's pleasure - but that's another subject...!).

[@reptiliangarden]

john schlesinger Thank you so much! It could use some more decorating 🤔💕✨

[@pedrogalvez7782]

Your care video on BRBs was the first one I watched when I got my little Britney. Even though I did a lot of research online, hearing first hand from someone who has one since it was a neonate was very reassuring for me. I got Britney when she was two weeks old, she is now almost 3 months and I swear she has doubled in size! Thanks for making awesome videos!!!

[@reptiliangarden]

Pedro Galvez This makes me so happy!!!! This is why I make these videos. I’m so glad I was able to help you! Keep up the great work! 💕

[@megg10]

Brazilian rainbow boas are some of my favorite, they're just so unique and breath taking! They're so mythical and iridescent 🌈💝

[@TITANTRIO_EDITZ]

Great video! Just purchased my first BRB! Always had ball pythons but had to get a BRB they are so pretty ❤️🐍

[@ceciliafernandez9376]

Wow Bowie is stunning. Can't wait for my little guy, Dio to grow. 🌱🌈🐍

[@rahel140]

There's 4 or 5 species of Australian snakes that also have that iridescent look about them. Absolutely love

[@theheatinferno8420]

Do a lot of those snakes have such a mellow personality? I feel Bowie has a rare soul, from all the way over here. I don't have any pets, but she seems so chill lol I like her

[@reptiliangarden]

The Heat Inferno A lot of them do in captivity! Especially if you work with them as babies, they grow accustomed to handling and don’t see their owners as a threat which makes for a very pleasant experience. 💕

[@Fontzig]

Beautiful snake :) I have a one year old male brb and he's out climbing his tree once in a while at night. Especially when it's close to feeding day he's hanging on a branch in ambush mode which is cool to see.

[@michaelmaimone13]

I love the way you care for your animals❤️♥️💙

[@reptiliangarden]

Michael Maimone Thank you so much 💕💕💕

[@taeviansworldofreptiles3828]

She is absolutely beautiful!

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you so much!!! 💕💕💕

[@briannagustovic7667]

bowie is majestic af

[@lowlifeexotics3070]

Love the rainbows!! My 3rd snake ever. Years ago!!🐍❤️

[@reptiliangarden]

Thomas Van Ostrand They are the best right?!

[@lowlifeexotics3070]

@@reptiliangarden yes!! All reptiles are the best love them all.

[@lowlifeexotics3070]

@A•La Lovely back then we made all of our enclosures. I used old humidifiers to make my enclosures out of.

[@AsheValendis]

My first snake is a Brazilian Rainbow Bow, named Iris (which you helped me name). I noticed in your Instagram pictures, that she kinda changed colors. She was much darker when she was younger, now she’s more the orange color that they’re known for. I’ve been reading around the web and people do say that they tend to change color when they grow. Also, when you do breed her, if you get too, I would love to see a video on how to breed them and how the babies look. Theses are by far my favorite snakes, my other favorite snakes are, Green Tree Pythons (the store I got my BRB from has a super friendly GTP), Kenyan Sand Boas and Eyelash Vipers (I’ll never own a venomous snake, but I really like the Eyelash Viper). I know this is a long comment but I don’t want to make separate comments. Thank you for all the videos about snakes and other reptiles, I have learned a lot from your videos and my own research. Keep up the fantastic work! You’re amazing, keep educating people. Because the day you stop learning is the day you die, you learn something new everyday. Thank you 💕

[@reptiliangarden]

Ricardo Fresnedo Thank you so much for your amazing support! I hope iris is doing well! And if I ever get that project started with breeding, I will definitely make videos on the entire process! 💕💕💕

[@ProbsNotABot]

Oh, I just got a Brazilian Rainbow boa around 2 months ago named Iris xD After the greek goddess of rainbows?

[@frankrelmar5903]

She is beautiful kiddo and love the way she uses you has a tree thanks

[@adriannadragon9392]

BRB's are truly one of the best (I'm biased with my boy lol) I can't get enough of them 😍🤧♥️

[@mirandaeline9495]

I have a columbian rainbow boa male he was my second snake and he is the best! Insanely friendly and curious about everyone. He isnt a great eater but otherwise an amazing snake!

[@jaddenmp]

Miranda E how’s your setup looking like?

[@andyhsong]

this has to be my next snek!!

[@brelude17]

Beautiful snake

[@thinknow4114]

Again, a pleasure! I would recommend Hardin Herpetologica for your Male BRB. Trace Hardin is an outstanding breeder and a fantastic professional resource for BRBs and Herpetology in general. His collection is absolutely astounding to see. They treat you right and you do not overpay for the kind of quality and service you receive. And for someone like you, who deeply cares about the husbandry aspect of keeping and the quality of care your animals receive, I think you will be quite impressed. Thank you for the video today, I love my BRBs as well. I wish I could pick a favorite snake but I just adore the lot. I wish I had more than a few hours a day to spend with them. I believe that interaction with your snake collection is the most therapeutic thing you can do for yourself. Love and care for your animals and they will reciprocate.

[@reptiliangarden]

thinknow Thank you so much for such a lovely, and thoughtful response. I really appreciate it. I’ll lookin into Hardin Herpetological. Thank you so much for the recommendation! 💕💕💕

[@thinknow4114]

Will you be attending Tinley in March? If so, and I can find you, I will show you some of the photos I have of my BRBs from Hardin Herpetologica. Trace and Char breed BRBs, Carpets, and Blood/Sumatran Short Tails. I don’t know if they’ll be there too, but if I learn that they will be I will let you know in the comments of a future video.

[@reptiliangarden]

thinknow I will be!

[@wisalsilva541]

Awesome feed. Mine is called Bowy and she's 2 years old. Keepe it up :D

[@dalicia1322]

Wow I Actually seen a rainbow boa at a pet supply store yesterday it's very tiny I'm thinking about bringing her home today cause she's not in the best living conditions there I hope the one I'm getting has been handled

[@xoticmarvelreptiles4459]

Beautiful snake😊😊😊

[@rebeccawalker268]

I have a 1 1/2 yo male, from Dave Colling at Rainbows-r-Us. We are getting him a female this spring from Cliff Earle at Living Gems. They are the best snakes, ours is a puppy in personality.

[@tanjalavandero4232]

Loved this videos so much! ❤️ Bowie is so gorgeous omg! Thank you so much for all the info, it was really interesting to hear about this snake. I’m mostly into ball pythons but it’s always great to learn about different species🙃 You take really good care of your animals Tricia! 💕

[@reptiliangarden]

Tanja Lavandero Thank you so much!!! 💕💕💕

[@anamaldonado6194]

What a beauty!!! 😍

[@frankharden8953]

Love your content!

[@pxrisxiv]

Such a beautiful snake, I had the chance to get one of these but it was between a common boa and a rainbow boa(I chose the common boa though) but have a soft spot for rainbows, maybe once my common boa has a proper enclosure(6x2x2 vivarium) I’ll get one who knows.

[@reptiliangarden]

NUTHINGX It’s a hard choice between the two 😭💕

[@radiantmind8729]

Wow... Well, aren’t you just gorgeous! (Oh, and the girl is pretty ok too!) 😁

[@oliviercornille9330]

this is a beautiful snake, i have a girl brazilian rainbow boa, sorry for my english, i'm french.

[@reptiliangarden]

olivier cornille Your English is great! Thank you so much! 💕

[@jae2482]

I’m have a rainbow boa one day

[@tyborg314]

why is her orange so muted in the video, but not the pictures? is it the light, or was she blue?

[@dawnmurphy403]

Same experience here, fell in love w my baby BRB at pet shop...she escaped in my car on the way home and we didn’t find her for 6 hrs. She nearly froze...going to get a hypo male boyfriend for her.

[@antntyscreations]

I can't wait to get a Brazilian rainbow boa one day. You're in the Chicagoland area right? The reptile house in Orland park will be getting some I just don't know when. I asked last time I was there. Which was last week maybe 2 weeks ago. I'll be on the look out!

[@reptiliangarden]

Zaidy Rodriguez I am! I hope you can snag one soon!

[@antntyscreations]

@@reptiliangarden me too. I keep stalking their Facebook page! 😂😁 but he said they won't be getting any until it's over 40 degrees out. So I still have a long time. Lol

[@lydiaeddins2083]

Very pretty snake. I loved hearing about her personality. Who made the enclosure, if you don't mind me asking?

[@reptiliangarden]

Lydia Eddins Thank you so much! I actually got it from the Chicago reptile house! 💕

[@stephaniecole3932]

Is she a normal brizilian rainbow boa? She's gorgeous!

[@reptiliangarden]

Stephanie Sweeden As far as I know, yes! Thank you so much! 💕

[@hey-fv2gg]

I believe she is an Amazonian Brazilian boa. They are the most red-ish ones, you can also find them in yellow, brown and other colours, they are all Brazilian boas, but are endemic of different places

[@Reptillian8071]

If you want to find a snakes length use a price of string and the straighten the string and measure it

[@Reptillian8071]

Peice not price

[@reptiliangarden]

One day I’ll finally do it lmao

[@funnyperson4027]

This video would be cool in 3D

[@howwasyourday4499]

If you did breed bowie would you sell the babies?

[@reptiliangarden]

how was your day? Yes! I’d need to move first 😅

[@marleyBsalinas94]

I will buy one when you start breeding

[@SoapMonkeeyy]

Weird I didn’t get the push notification for this

[@reptiliangarden]

SoapMonkeeyy Yeah, something weird happened with this video. It was up for a half hour and said no views. I think KZbin was having an issue or something. 😅

[@SoapMonkeeyy]

Reptilian Garden yeah I only knew about it cuz I saw it on Instagram. But it said 15 minutes ago so I was like what 😂

[@reptiliangarden]

SoapMonkeeyy I don’t know why that happened! Super annoying! But thanks for checking it out anyway! 😅💕

[@FernFernFerm]

Don't you think that the enclosure should be at least as long as the snake itself? Don't like that you give that advice to people. I know that Boas don't move alot, especially during the day but they do move and they do need space to climb and explore at night. I would suggest a 6 ft wide and 3 ft high enclosure for an adult female epicrates cenchria cenchria.

[@FernFernFerm]

The enclosure looks super dry aswell :-(

[@robertgarbrecht1466]

So you gave up a snake you had previously committed to, your ball python, to get another snake that seems kind of irresponsible. Not to be an asshole but you are part of the reason so many reptile rescues are full of ball pythons...nobody wants to keep the first one they get once they see something "better".

[@reptiliangoddess6726]

I love Bowie so much she is gorgeous!! If you haven’t already please show how you create a set up to maintain the humidity and heat for Brazilian rainbow boas! 😍😍
