Adam, I need a favor. About a week ago I brought home a pretty Box Turtle and she is pretty nice. Well I made a mistake and told my 15yr old son that shes more like a tortoise than a turtle. I love reptiles and I have owned some of the most venomous snakes in the Americas. I have had an alligator for 22yrs. But never in my life would I ever feel as dumb as I did in the argument with my son. The only reason I found for it being called a turtle and not a tortoise, it on how they walk. I don't think I am the only person that is truly baffled about this and I probably should not even care. Lol. But if you could do a video on this topic, I would be gratefully appreciated. You definitely know more about turtles, tortoises and lizards than I do. I might be able to give you a run for your money on snakes though. Lol. Maybe maybe not. Lol. Anyway, if you don't want to touch this subject, I will understand, I have found out that it can really stir the pot really well. Lol. Hope you and your family are doing well. Down here in South Louisiana, its freaking HOT!!!! We got a little system thats headed or way, so hopefully it can cool things down for awhile and blow all of these mosquitoes away. Thanks again man.

Hey adam, not saying your a bad keeper or anything, just sharing my experience. Tortoises are not exactly of a very low iq animal as they are actually quite smart. They can diffrentiate between food and hand or diffrence between their owners and other ppl. The table factor is also a bit wrong as most tortoises ( cant speak for all) will back off on some injurious altitude (lack of words😅). The main thing for them to develop such good intelligence is enrichment, by encrichment I mean them interacting in a perfectly natural enclosure, also letting them look for their own food. I understand your in Canada as its mostly cold. I was just trying to tell that tortoises aint dumb. People many times think that tortoises are dumb because tortoises are animals of habbit. If you observe in the wild tortoises, they follow a certain routine during the day and during seasonal changes. I am just sharing my experience. I am not trying to tell you that your a bad keeper. I just want to clarify that tortoises are not as dumb as we think. This can't be explained easily on a comment but still try to understand.

@@shamik_sathe Now I am no turtle or tortoise expert by any means. But I think when it comes to turtles walking off the top of a table or cliff in some cases. I dont think its because they are dumb or stupid. I dont think they can see as good as other reptiles. They might have a depth perception. So when that first foot dosen't touch anything, by then its to late and turtle falls down to the ground. That damn gravity is a bi**h isnt it. Lol. But what do I know? I dont know why a box turtle is not a tortoise...... The reason I can find, its how they walk on their feet.

Humans are dumb. Beyond words ^.^ our brains are the most evolve yet we csnnot solve pur own problems let alone the problems of our specises. We seperate fron our own specises based off pity, insignificant irrational indifference such as physical apoearence, sexuality, religion or just silly debates where some people end up killing over on mere arguments. Oh yeah, the world tells you to wear a mask but you get upset and end up killing the person who is trying to save your life. Also people astrosize each other for being a damn " individual" as i have experienced vs. Being a " norm" a steryotype. My experience when moving to the damn south in Ga by my own race. And then the rascisim. We certainly make it pur ugly nature to be aegrated in so msny ways for a primitsl beast who has a head and oblong brain like a watermellon. Yet you see people injecting themselves with bleach, and shotying a six year old baby in the arm for playing in their own neighborhood. Simplicity is trully harmonious and more so then are complex selves. The way i see it the smarter you are as human animals, the more likely you are to become psychotic, suicidal, unpredictable and a devil. Dude we are going extinct andvwill certsinly NOT OUTLAST THE DINOSAURS WHO ARE 65millions years of existiving vs. Our specises who are far light years away and even solving the problem of global warming let alone a lot of people vlearly DC dont give a shit what with all the drag racing and so on and so forth.

I'd like to see a 'pros and cons' of each animal; e.i housing, feeding, interactability, personality, etc. As an example, my Rosy Boa is super easy to keep in a 40 gallon terrarium where my ball python needs a significantly bigger (and more expensive) enclosure. Being in So Cal it also takes more effort to provide enough humidity for the BP where the RB is from around these parts. The ball python is great for just hanging out in one place where the Rosy is super busy and inquisitive, it just takes him forever to go from point A to point B and he is so cute while doing so. They both like to play on their playground but because of their respective size and weight there are a lot more things for the Rosy to play with. Both are EXCELLENT for handling even with timid people. Both get a little excited and bitey on feeding day but that's because they are excellent feeders. But one hopper mouse for the RB is less money than one small/medium rat for the BP. You get the point.

Same here. She actually waits till I'm not looking when she's out to try and have an adventure. And she only jumped from my shoulder once. Never again. Now she climbs down my body instead. She also likes to crawl onto my back where I have a more difficult time reaching her before she tries to climb down. I'm considering a small animal playpen for her. She also can escape her tank if I don't keep the screen lid on by climbing the plants in a corner where the lid is to the side. She also looks over edges rather than lemming (I know that was made up) over the edge, but I still don't want to risk it. She even lets me know when she's hungry, or at least recognizes me as food provider. Currently working on clicker training, but seeing as shes ovulating, there aren't many chances to use the clicker. I don't have THAT much hope that it will work. She's smart for a leo, but she's still a leo. XD

My ball python girl seems unnervingly intelligent as for her age and species. She seems constantly on allert (yet her instincts always win when she's scared by a sudden move or unexpected situation, but istn't it the case with all of us?) and loves exploring every time she notices a difference in the surroundings. She may seem "dumb" at times, but as in case with all of us, she first needs to check if she just can do certain things- if she cannot, she simply backs off and goes around doing ball pythin stuff again. She started slithering off my bed only when she realised that she's long enough to not fall and hurt herself, but omg in her youths her exploration skills led her to hit the glass walls or floor of her terrarium several times XD My father was once scared that she'll be stuck in the locker when she was still little and in exploring mode, and immediatelly after he poked her to go down, she jumped at him, hitting a glass wall in the process rather hard. It later took her MONTHS to stop percieving my father as pottential threat, but I think she forgave him earlier and then started trusting him, when he prooved himself gentle with her. But she always loved and recognised my smell, mostly because I was a mother figure to her kind of... Not so long ago I wanted to help her access the warmer hide that was between two tree roots in her terratium and being a clumsy b1tch I am, I accidentally caused one of them (of course it had to be the heavier one 😕🤦♀️) to fall on her which visibly scared her, as it was the 2nd time in her entire life here that she actually balled up for quite a while, but then everything went to normal. I think she knows me for a time long enough to know that it was an accident and even now when I look into her eyes, I can see she holds no grudge towards me. Beautiful reptile.

He has a ton of energy, which is why I think it is extremely beneficial to have him out of his cage 30 mins a day minimum, and almost never stays put. However, once I let him run around for a bit in the morning, he sits with me on my desk in front of the window and watches the world while I do schoolwork. Would 100% recommend.

He tries to dig and climbs his tall tree hide and is very aware. He’s even gotten used to the tank opening and figuring out if I’m checking on him, cleaning, or feeding. But then he refuses to eat for months or sits in the corner next to a hide for a week. Not in a hide, just sitting next to it. Crammed against the hide and the glass corner. And then I’m much less sure of his intelligence.

My leopard gecko, Loki is such a dumb ass, I love him to death but I don’t think he has even a half a brain cell to use and it only says “yeet off of the highest surface possible and sometimes eat” I’m getting dart frogs and I’ve heard they seem more intelligent so I’m interested to see their behavior compared to my very sweet but very dumb boi

Where do you keep your turtles/tortoises in the winter? What are there enclosure sizes? Coincidentally I have been wanting a cherry head or a three toe boxy 😂

Another great video. I recently took a box turtle in who won't eat when anybody is around. Honestly, I don't know how he's survived. 😄 My redfoots leave their food and climb over everything to come say hello. They're not picky who's coming to see them. Whereas my red eared sliders know me from strangers. If it's just me or my husband, they're all up at the surface of the pond. If there's anybody else with us, you'd never know they were there. Lol The sulcatas are half and half. Some are social with strangers. Others have to know you to come say hello. But they're all great. And they're all cute. Thank you for this video.

I kept my sulcata at my 9th floor balcony and she knocks the glass sliding door every morning to remind me to feed her. Yes, she eats daily 🤣

My leopard gecko, Oscar is smart. He'll literally look at me, from his enclosure, when he's hungry. So there's something going on between his ear holes lol.

You should've put your boas on the list! Boas seem to have a very good understanding of their surroundings from my experience. My day geckos and my african red sided skink seem to be the most intelligent/inquisitive animals that I own.

Congratulations!! I’m just on my second baby now, make sure to do all your research! I learned that keeping a water dish is helpful (not harmful as I first learned!) for your beardie, my first I have to feed him water from a dropper or he may drink in his bath, but my new baby drinks from her water dish no prob. I’m always willing to learn!!

Thank you more than I can say. We are investigating getting a reptile for me and a special child to share. And because of your work, I found a local reptile shop. Never knew there was one near me! I went there today and finally got to meet a bunch of reptiles IN Person! I was so excited! And after holding a great ball python and meeting some cute cresties, I fell freaking in love with a sub adult bearded dragon!!! All Diamond’s fault. I couldn’t have that one. He was already sold. I tried to talk him into hiding under my shirt and breaking him out! But we know now that a dragon is in our near future! Left with a second dwarf African frog and some snails for the aquarium. First steps into a new world! Thank you!!! 💚🐍🦎🐢🐸💚 ps: oh, and held a uromastex…wrong spelling….Going to join your patreon!

My beardie was always very aware of whatever I was doing in my room. As soon as I’d walk in she’d look at me and come up to the glass. She’d get excited whenever I picked up the container I kept her dubias in bc she knew it was cronch time. My ball python was pretty derpy but she was very chill and knew it was feeding day when she saw me walk up with the lil box from the local pet shop(she unfortunately would only eat a rat if she killed it herself). Could prob smell the rat too I’d imagine.

I have about 15 leopard geckos and they do vary in smart range. Most if I have them in public when someone touches them without asking they run off to the other side of my shoulder but don't jump off. They definitely know difference between me handling them and others but if I place them on someone's hand they are fine.
