TOURING A NEW REPTILE SHOP IN CALIFORNIA! (The Reptile Shop, Riverside)

[@cara9648]

The green iguana sticking his head out and checking you and your camera out was a treat to watch. One of my uncles had one and he was fun to watch as a kid.

[@kaedenliebert130]

Makes me want one

[@cara9648]

@@kaedenliebert130 They are a challenge so research is key if you decide to get one.

[@leesreptilesandaquatics6368]

It's always the best day when Dav uploads a video ❤

[@davkaufmansreptileadventures]

Thanks! That’s awesome to hear!

[@reptilez13]

Timor pythons are so cool - only other animal in the Malayopython genus besides the Retics, which arguably is two species/subspecies but still. Super interesting especially compared to SD Retics etc. Awesome stuff!

[@mattm7798]

I went to Strcitly reptiles back in the early/mid 2000s. I don't remember a ton about it as far as cleanliness but they def have been in the area for a long time. Glad to see it getting a revamp.

[@fujimantofu6169]

I used to go to Strickly multiple times a week when I lived in Riverside, for live feeder bugs and for my rats. So great to see it under new management and especially by someone with a good reputation and love for the hobby!

[@wyattcooley2695]

Yea that place was going down hill fast now it is a way better atmosphere

[@steveburlingame1935]

That snow rosey boa is amazing i want and a frillled dragon

[@loispadgett6306]

You will have to go back in maybe 6 months and show us how there doing and if they make any changes to the store. So glad he was able to buy this place. Thanks Dav. GOD BLESS 🦎💖🐍💖🐢💖🐸💖

[@bernadettemcgoldrick4817]

So many beautiful reptiles under one roof, I could be there all day. ❤

[@caughtafaygo]

Very cool place and cool informative lively owner. That energy is appreciated!

[@readyalways1414]

I'll definitely be checking out that shop soon BIG DOGGIE 💯👣

[@misomie]

Oh that black and white rosy boa is sooo cute omg 🥺

[@lukemorgan8447]

Very cool! I really love blood pythons and Mike has a really cool one. All reptiles are really cool.

[@growingheart8039]

"Wil you give me a tour of your shop? I will start over here." Dav😅 Great video! 🎉

[@patriciavaldez2299]

You should go to Reptile Island in Yorba Linda, CA

[@richardsanchez5444]

There's one in rancho Cucamonga too but it's pretty small.

[@ianparkinson7039]

Awesome shop run by a professional keeper. How it should be Dav. Cheers from down under mate

[@lukemorgan8447]

Yeah I remember Mike from your earlier videos. He had the coolest boa constrictors.

[@reesespythons]

Looks Like A Real Good Shop And They Are Taking Care Of The Animals Real Well

[@Sunnie922]

Thank you for showing love to normal ball pythons, from a normal ball python mom.

[@crazyaboutreptiles8833]

I used to live in Perris California and we used to go to that reptile shop all the time

[@leam89]

Love the rosy boas

[@310ExoticReptiles]

I have rough scales sand boas and I find rosy boas in Hesperia ca

[@bnutz3k]

I concur on the rosy boas. Mine is great! I have one of the bigger localities and she's like a whole 3' long! Just make sure you wash hands and if they try to eat you, ramp up their prey size/frequency a smidge. :D

[@Emma-wi8ri]

Some gorgeous animals! Unfortunately enclosures are slacking quite a bit but some super good variety

[@MikeSwinehart]

Another great video dab. Cool shop

[@VIVVISIONS]

Great build and utilisation of all space

[@dericplummer9272]

Nice. I live right by here! It could definitely use an upgrade.

[@calicocriterisopod]

What a cool shop, Mike seems very knowledgeable:))

[@dantan1249]

Got the most beautiful Pueblan milk snake from this guy 🙌

[@KimSpurre104]

This is SO cool…and to think, both this and the Temecula store are about 45min-1hr away from me. Time to beg a friend for a ride or two. False Water Cobras are in my list of top 10 favorite snake species. The black dragon is so beautiful and the rosy boas…..I could go on and on!

[@BradT_Herping]

I hope there's gonna be some CA herp videos too! As always, love the content thanks Dav!

[@SmaySerpents]

Great video

[@richardsanchez5444]

Dude, I've been looking for good spots for supplies for my crested gecko and future reptiles. So far jist reptile Island in rancho but now i got another hell yeah thanks for the info.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Ren's Pecs. Great episode.

[@clistiarobinson34]

Awesomeness

[@jessimathews-rush8130]

Have you been to the one in Berkeley California? I grew up going to it. Got my love of snakes there

[@MeMe-m8g7t]

I used to shop here for cricket's and meal worms when I was a kid back in 1995, I bought my first snake here

[@chasebrunner]

That shop is really cool that blood Python was ready to bite

[@travis1118]

Did Mike work at Karlas Kritters in Hemet? Or LLL Reptiles? Or go to West Valley? I swear I've seen him before lol

[@squllymcfadden6262]

I come here every friday lol

[@sammyvargas3679]

👍🫵👊🫶🏻 very nice

[@MeMe-m8g7t]

It used to have a darker cave/jungle theme to it if I remember correctly

[@ClockWorkCroc]

Only strictly i know is in Hollywood Florida lol

[@juicecounty714]

Ayyy that's by my house

[@NorthernScalesReptiles]

Kinda lost me at the fairly large water monitor in a 4x2x2 and fully lost me seeing colubrids and boas in deli cups with water dishes. Not against racks or reasonable large keeping but dang, this depressed me.

[@emmasmart6112]

I felt the same. The blue tail monitor could hardly turn around

[@redsftw10]

It still blows my mind that he doesn't have more subscribers!

[@tylermoseley7492]

Because when he’s not making bad jokes, his facts are incorrect. Like in this video where he states that Timor pythons are from the island of Timor which is completely false

[@christiandyer7797]

It’s been Stricklys since i was a kid it’s where my first snake

[@LanceKirkman]

Sadly someone declared Leopard Tortoise no longer 2 sub species. They got rid of the "larger" declaration I can't find the exact date, I'm guessing 2020 ish... (which I find a load of $%!T) Amazing new shop! Can't wait for your next visit there! #RattleOn

[@sherrilvollmer4477]

Wish I knew you were in town. 😢

[@trubullyzzeusfam1546]

This guy AGAIN...jk he's got cool stuff

[@jdssurf]

I know they just took over the place. So no disrespect, I know he's a great dude and loves the animals. If I had any advice or things I noticed, I didn't see much humidity in a few of those snake enclosures, and then keeping the rosys and such just in the deli cups is gonna get you lots of troll hate, even in person in the shop, just a heads up........ppl will smack talk the smaller enclosures for a few things but those are just temporary, the deli cups though, I would do like stackable clear shoe boxes, again no disrespect, store looks nice and clean, I'm sure you guys will do a great job, best wishes, I'll have to come check it out. The blood is gorgeous and the false water, jealous.

[@Lizerdbrain]

Holy what an original name idea…. Pretty sure there is a “reptile shop” in every major city

[@Ochibason]

Teranchula or Temecula?

[@lowbaritonewwj]

It was years ago, but I drove out there from Fullerton, and paid a hundred dollars for an adult Jeweled Lacerta.

[@christiandyer7797]

It’s been there closer to 30 years

[@secondsfromdisaster5360]

That timor python Looks like a darker carpet python

[@emmasmart6112]

Only thing is I feel the blue tail monitor tank is way too small , even if arboreal. Could hardly turn around

[@dylanjwicklund92]

Isn't strictly where most the morphs came from people would go down there and go through shipments of ball pythons and pick out the weird looking ones

[@tylermoseley7492]

Dude, Timor pythons, also known as Lesser Sundas python, does NOT inhabit the island of Timor. They are not found there

[@Steevee14]

You are absolutely correct! The Timor python is not found on Timor Island. I'm surprised someone didn't point that out.

[@chrisjohnson7290]

I work with Mike my name is chris I live him

[@jdssurf]

are you paying me? nope!

[@Mcdashiznit]

NAME IT RR RIVERDIDE REPTILES🤷🏾

[@soradicalreticsandmonitors2390]

Don’t forget about Jim Heck !!! That’s not a true guru

[@misshenderson1]

I'm sorry but so many of the animals in this shop does not look good at all... they look sick, sad, under fed, dehydrated etc.... how sad and I love reptiles but I also love when ppl selling them love them to and make sure they're in great health

[@billcollison4393]

Seriously?

[@davkaufmansreptileadventures]

Don’t feed the trolls. She doesn’t know what she’s talking about and is just here to spread hate.

[@billcollison4393]

@@davkaufmansreptileadventures I just can't with these people anymore. And I thought the horse world was bad at one time. Ugh these people have no clue.

[@MoneylineRips]

Crazy statement to make especially when you’re not there to see the animals in person. I don’t think Dave is going to show off and support a shop with unhealthy animals. Great videos as always Dave!!

[@jdssurf]

They literally just took over the place and are revamping everything. You must have missed the entire intro.......

[@krk_457]

Throw that false water on some reptichip atleast 🫠
