I love the Ptyas Karen-ata's vocalizations! She is deeply offended by all this talk of parasites and demands to speak to the manager!

[@NewEnglandReptile]

She is rather offended!

❤️these big colubrids 😁

[@froggy.714]

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! I prefer these to the over produced videos that Donny used to do. You seem much more comfortable when you are just enjoying your animals and sharing your knowledge and love for them. PS: just to clarify, I don't dislike or have any personal feelings regarding Donny. It is just a video format and content preference.

[@Atodaso-pg9kq]

Agreed Donny turned me away from watching the videos a lot of times.

[@justingould7348]

I couldn’t stand him.

[@SaraRodriguez-td7cp]

What happened to Donny just curious

[@Danijack1203]

I liked when Donnie was on it also but I definitely agree Kevin seems so much comfortable just enjoying and teaching us about reptiles ❤ Kevin's so knowledgeable and I could listen to him talk about reptiles all day 🙂🦎🐍

[@bettymorgan4737]

Didn't care for Donny, these are much better.

[@loriwelsh7236]

Kevin you are totally noticed and loved ! Thank you so much for these videos , I appreciate your insight and passion and knowledge immensely ! Have a nice weekend❤❤❤Love you and the snakies to pieces!🐍🐍🐍

[@NewEnglandReptile]

I appreciate that! Very kind

[@vichellebd]

No, don't fade away. ❤❤❤ Enjoying the bubblegum. You show off your animals like I'm a friend stopping by. Keep up the good work 😃

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Thank you.

[@jonathanyoungblood8676]

I absolutely love every single snake you showed. Dan is amazing love watching him and Apple sharing their travels . Don’t fade away , you are the best teacher when it comes to your animals

I love false water cobras the lavender are very pretty ❤ I also love your cat laying there lol your the best Kevin ty❤😊

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Appreciated.

[@phhh5002]

I greatly appreciate the oppurtunity to learn about all of the different snakes. From somebody who doesn't own a reptile or go to pet shows, my prior knowledge of reptiles were such limited to Bearded dragons, boas, retic pythons and the two types indigenious to my home country. So being introduced to all of the different types, their differences, their behaviour, their preferences and such has expanding my understanding multiple times over.

[@dianneledford3681]

Absolutely 💯. Miss these laid back Educational Videos and the FACT NERO Kevin and Snarfles an Ivan look forward to seeing more of the indepth videos

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Thank you.

[@krystofholub9135]

Thank you for yet another great educating video. Never have I known ptyas existed

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Yes, not well known and people don’t seem to Realize they can be tamed etc.

[@mikethereptileguy250]

King Ratsnakes are criminally underrated. Coolest looking snakes out there, and if you handle them properly they’re not defensive at all. Colubrids in general are criminally underrated. So much cooler than Ball Pythons.

[@s0yboy]

I dig these lil info videos!

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Glad you like them!

[@CodyHinkle92]

That's neat!!!! They make noises!!! I love em!!!

[@indiacoers2611]

The snake from Madagascar is really gorgeous! It seems so chill and laid back! I would love to see your whole collection! I can't even imagine how amazing it is!!!

[@conniecutruzzula9199]

Thank you Kevin I just love watching you handling your snakes. I can just see how much you love them I can see the enthusiasm in your eyes. It's amazing to watch you talk about your snakes. I can't get enough of your channel. Again Thank You ❤ 18:19

Beautiful snakes... Madagascar Hognose are one of my bucket list snakes - I think they are just gorgeous :-)

[@NewEnglandReptile]

I think so too!

[@indiacoers2611]

The 2nd one was looking at itself in the glass! Tabby cats are the best! "He/she said I'm OK. Dad won't let that thing get me." And just flopped down to enjoy the show!

[@crooksidewood]

Really appreciate the video Kevin!! Can't wait to see the Tegus!! Been on the fence for a while on getting one.

You are so welcome!

Colubrids are most DEF underrated! Love them! Nice Vid.

[@leleemcmurphy2246]

Love all of them! Thanks for sharing these beauties!! Also the close ups are amazingly good & so clear on their cute faces! My favorite is the false water cobra; so adorable!!

[@NewEnglandReptile]

You are so welcome!

[@melodydwight8262]

They r really pretty snakes... 😊

[@Gaspingindeath]

I LOVE falsies! I would love to keep one someday, but I think they're illegal in Massachusetts (I haven't seen them listed explicitly legal or illegal, but because of the mild venom I'm pretty sure they end up in the illegal bucket). Also - Stoked for a tegu video!

[@NewEnglandReptile]

I grew up In mass…. Well, if we call me “grown up” But yes the laws are not easy there. I think tegus are the next one I’m filming.

[@jimmystockton6404]

I really like it when you pull out the less known stuff like a lot of the blue bridge and maybe dig into geckos a little bit this is the best shit on the internet to learn from I've saved a lot of animals with advice from your videos thanks whatever you do don't fade away the hobby has to have people like you

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Love to Hear this! ❤

[@susanmartin3762]

The eyes in your first snake are HUGE!! SHE'S SO PRETTY! That sound she's making is really creepy cool!

[@katiekane5247]

My cat is fascinated by my Ball. I make sure there's enough distance to prevent a bad day for either one. Probably scare each other to death if either moved quickly 😂

[@NewEnglandReptile]

You are so welcome!

[@indiacoers2611]

That is a very beautiful snake! I thought at the beginning it was a King Cobra until I saw its face! The noises she makes are awesome!! That one was so deep pitched! Nature's creatures are so amazing!!! I have learned so much from your channel, I swear! I love your channel! 👏🤍🐍

@@NewEnglandReptile when I was a kid, my parents had a Maine coon cattery specializing in reds/creams & silvers/blues. That was back when no one knew what they were, and every long-haired cat people found was a “Persian-mix” rather than an MC.

[@user-wz8kj6ly9u]

I love these videos!!! Reminds me of your videos in the beginning!!!!!! Alot easier with your camera woman!!! Donnie did great but you and him are very different and while he was trying to help build the Channel of times he came across as abrasive!! These videos are so much more authentic and show more of your true passion!!! The day in the life videos and cool projects you are excited about are YOU!!! Your experience and knowledge as a reptile keeper is where your videos are the strongest!! Keep up the hard work!!!!

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Thank you very much. This channel’s growth has slowed greatly and I will have to figure out some new things but for now I will persist, I hope.

[@user-wz8kj6ly9u]

You are doing famously considering how much other projects you have in the works all the time!!!! Don't get discouraged!!!! We are still your loyal fan base!!! Hope to see some new project videos, some updates on your work with USARC, outdoor excursions and hopefully when the legasea aquarium is finished you will plan a trip!!!! You do amazing things and Noone even knows about it and although you may not think it's going to interest us I promise we will so excited to learn about !!!!

[@keaneu4456]

Awesome video. Colubridae family of snakes are one of my favorites. I agree, Ptyas carinata keeled rat snake are definitely an underrated snake. Love the scales on the Ptyas carinata king rat snake! Don’t worry Kevin, you get a lot of love. When anyone has issues with there reptiles I always hit them up and tell them to contact you at NERD, you are an ambassador my friend. Have a great weekend Kevin. 🐍 🦎

[@NewEnglandReptile]

Verrrry kind.

[@leesaneyman8304]

I love love love this video❤❤❤❤. These are my kind of snakes. I used to have several different varieties of corn snakes. I even had a albino but it had lavender and pink stripes. It was so beautiful but absolutely hated people. All my others loved us. They'd all been held since birth and I would let them sleep with me. They loved it. (Not the albino 😂) Anyway I love kings snakes too. Black and yellow snakes are my favorite. Those in this video are just so lovely. I protect all the wild snakes on my land. I can sit down and have wild snakes come up to me and crawl on me. They'll change their direction and come to me. It's actually amazed people that see it. I tell them it's because they know that I love them and won't let anything hurt them. 😂😂 I would love to see more videos like this. Also I love the lizards. Can't wait to see those. Your bubble gum videos are fantastic.

[@NewEnglandReptile]

More to come!! ❤

@@NewEnglandReptile I've seen a couple ppl in the reptile community getting pairs recently with that intent, and I'm excited to see it! Once I get a bit more familiar with my dude and confirm he is truly a dude, I might be on the lookout for a female to try my hand at it too, but with how long his prior owner had him, it might be pushing it with his age. ♡

Cool video! I have 3.3 Mad Hogs (5 are CBB, 1 is WC) and hope to produce my first clutch in 2025. Super cool and fun species, though the babies are overly dramatic spazzoids and super fast, but that makes them fun. Now I have to go research King Rats, they look pretty cool too!

We have a lot of lavender/hets gigas here in Russia, it s even harder to find a normal type. I have a little het lavender and I love how bold and unbothered these snakes are when you touch their head even. I heard they dont live too long if you feed them only rodents wonder if thats true. I try to feed 2 frozen frogs/1 mouse to mine but it's tricky to find frogs here ngl

[@NewEnglandReptile]

I’ve had some pretty long time fed on rodents.

Kevin, please show us more about False Water Cobras and Mad Hogs! Hogs always seemed kinda boring to me but these seem different!

[@MarzieMalfoy]

Ok so the keeled rat snake was definitely what was visiting me in the city when I lived there. Must’ve been someone’s pet that escaped… or was let go bc damn it was BIG. I wasn’t about to pick it up bc I make it a habit to not pick up snakes I can’t identify, especially if they growling at me 😂 And I would love a tegu video! Not allowed black and whites in NC but I want to learn everything I can in case I decide to get a red or golden.

[@NewEnglandReptile]

You had a big snake visiting you ? A black racer?
