Moving our Snapping Turtle into the Zoo!

Since it will take several years before our anaconda will be large enough to go into his exhibit, we modified it for our snapping turtle Chloe to live in!

OH MY GOSH I wasn't expecting you to even see my suggestion much less actually carry it out 😱 I've been jumping up & down like a little girl for the past five minutes! Chloe looks so happy in her new enclosure 💞

For the floating stump, if you're willing to hack away more of the foam, you could then try filling it back up with concrete.

[@lcoq19]

I wonder if there's reptile-safe concrete. 🤔 Traditional concrete is incredibly caustic because of the curing agents- which is why skin protection is so important when working with concrete since it can cause extremely painful burns to the skin. I believe that if they used traditional concrete, they'd have to soak it in water for several weeks, changing the water frequently, to remove as much of the chemical content as possible until it was properly ph balanced. It also takes a long time to fully cure so I'm not even sure they could start soaking it immediately and they'd likely need to seal it. Somewhat related, I'm glad you said "concrete" (which is the proper term) instead of "cement". Cement is actually an ingredient in concrete- it's what holds everything together, like glue. I always remember the difference because of the end of the Flintstones movie where Mr Slate is all excited about the new mixture and proclaims he will name it after his daughter, "Concretia". 😂😂

[@smexy_worm]

@@lcoq19 genuinely how and why are you so educated on concrete

[@lcoq19]

@@smexy_worm I have an innate curiosity about random topics and enjoy learning new things. I know a lot about many different subjects simply because when I have questions about anything, I Google them, usually going down several rabbit holes along the way. I often have trouble focusing on any one thing in particular, so I explore many topics to satisfy my mind's ADD tendencies. Also, I'm a homeowner who does a lot of things myself so I will research a topic before deciding whether or not I think I can tackle it myself. This in particular is one of those topics. 😊

[@sufferinsilence5817]

@@lcoq19 I was thinking this too! Like maybe they can just attach a lump of concrete to the bottom of it and sand paint it to blend in or something? (edit: or some other type of rock? idk if rocks can be glued lol)

So excited for this video, Chloe is one of my favorite Snake Discovery regulars! I love her spicy personality, and the fact that she has the same name as my sister 😂

[@yokonamigaara]

I've been hoping Chloe would get an enclosure upgrade, and what an upgrade it is!

[@AGudeDay]

Chloe is one of my favorite Snake Discovery reptiles (Not just because my name is Chloe, too). It’s nice seeing her getting a nice habitat, she won’t be able to escape (hopefully). :D

[@Sarah-cg5vf]

Yay I'm so excited that chloe now has her own large enclosure. No more escaping for you chloe. Happy wedding day lyndsey. Congratulations to the happy couple.

[@caoimhe777]

Chloe was the one of the first animals to be in the building but the last to get her inclosure 🤣

[@msb5775]

You can get security systems that have water sensors. Maybe you can set up one of those just for the water sensors (not to protect the building) and put them anywhere there's a pump. You only need to change the battery once in a while because they work off wifi. It would definitely give you peace of mind and you can maybe even wire in an automatic shutoff for the pump if that happens.

[@lauragregory9436]

Yay! for Chloe! I wish you could keep the inquisitive rescue tortoise! Seeing him snuggled up with Sharon was so cute!

[@t1dotaku]

As a fellow Chloe I am so pleased to see her so happy in her new tank.

[@blairfamilyadventures4348]

I think for Halloween, you should do an event, where there's pictures or stickers scattered around the zoo, of the animals in Halloween costumes, and you have to write down the stickers/pictures you found, return to the check out, and redeem your prize at the check out counter, here are some ideas of prizes: Merch, Stickers, Candy, wings of fire graphic novels or the chapter books, coloring sheets, calendars, Tattoos of reptiles, silly string

[@christopherbardier770]

This reminds of so many DIY projects including additions to a few terrariums. My only advice is always think of the longer term. You’ll find a perfect solutions, put lots of effort into it and make it perfect. Only to have it fall apart in a few weeks..

[@Marktec]

She might need a platform about 6-12” below the surface so she can rest and then breathe by extending her neck without having to move her entire body. In the wild snappers love shallow water!

[@mistingwolf]

I'm so happy for Chloe the turtle! She really did look very curious about her new enclosure. And now with her safely in the zoo, she can't escape so it's one less thing for Emily and Ed to have to worry about.

[@aetherfloats]

Hope your cousin has a wonderful wedding! Also Chloe is such a cutie. I'm so glad she's got all that room to roam around in now and explore!

[@superkkallstars7680]

She's so well behaved! Just trying to help a snapping turtle across the road is an adventure!

[@tuvelat7302]

Yay! I'm happy for Chloe. A little sad, too, that we don't get anymore shenanigan videos of Chloe escaping and wedging herself under the pallets.

[@Lozzo1390]

AWWW Chloe looks so cute in the zoo enclosure. Happy wedding to Lindsey. Hope you all have a lovely time.

[@beckyjo8745]

That was a GREAT idea!!! Chloe looks so good and happy in there!!! CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR WEDDING LINDSEY!!!

[@ladyjinyxx]

Its nice seeing her in a larger space she can play around in

[@23bellalove]

Im so happy for her.i always felt so bad for her that she was in that tiny tub with no room to move or do anything

[@AniFam]

Chloe is such a nice one to agree to the suggestion~😅 Her curious face is sooo cute~ Thank you for sharing this video~🤗

[@leahrother9227]

She was pretty comfy and chill when we visited on the 15th. We can't wait to come back

[@poochiew.9302]

I'm a year behind in watching content, but surprised Chloe wasn't put in an exhibit to begin with. Glad she gets a chance now :) .

[@maulanaari12]

I've been wondering if she will stay on that tub permanently because i thought the original plan was to have her moved into rex's bigger temporary pool after she moved into the zoo (idk if i asked this before feeling some type of deja vu rn 😅)

[@dreamcherub7541]

I'm so excited to see a Chloe update! She's precious!

[@qbvideography2898]

Can yall do a small update video for Chloe please!!!🥺

[@NadielissoilS-cp8yn]

I am so happy so so so happy That chloe Is getting her new closure you guys are so amazing I love snakes They're my favorite animal even though People are scared of them I love them they're so cute as babies and as adults

[@keefespencer1173]

Now that you have a common snapping turtle in the zoo you have to look for an alligator snapping turtle so people can learn about the differences between the two and if there is any other species of snapping turtles then you should also put them in the zoo and maybe in the same enclosure if they can cohabitate together and get along without trying to eat each other

[@skh1112]

Stick deserves a raise. Stick is doing a very hard job.

[@irritatedslightly]

I’ve been thinking lately, after watching the shenanigans video: 1: you should totally make another one! 2: Chloe really did need a new enclosure! 😊❤

I’m so happy Chloe😊 gets to have a nice big place to play and swim so I’m sure she’ll be nice and cozy❤

Loved the time lapse of Chloe exploring her new enclosure!!!

[@Sarah-oj2mu]

Great video!! Question what happened to your giant land tortoise. You made the enclosure that she can walk into all by herself and then walk around the zoo but I haven’t seen her in a while.

[@peepslostsheep]

You could see her in this video around 6:55, in her enclosure.

[@tokoshiba3784]

Sharon the sulcata tortoise is doing fine last time I saw! She's still walking around and sleeping as she usually does 🥰

[@Blazesong]

that became her rest area i belive , they have two others tom (who they said was for adopt in this video but thats due to it being filmed a while ago, i think in a live they said they are keeping him) and rafiki (who was also in the live with tom)

[@Jenn0123]

At 6:51 you can see the enclosure bit for him/her (can't remember!) :D

[@Creekersqueaker]

Finally Chole won’t escape her black pool!

[@scottvandyke6468]

I love your sniping turtle Chloe

[@boxxzi]

I have a suggestion : if your new turtle -one in open enclosure- was tifall down that little dip you could add a small ramp-! Just enough so you can open the door and the turtle can get up if fallen down! 😌

[@allegro65]

Chloe is a great addition to the zoo! Have fun at the wedding!!!
