Registrace 16. 01. 2019
I started getting into the reptile hobby in February of 2018. My first reptile was my Bearded Dragon - Maxine Pegasus (creator of duel monsters btw). Since then, I have added six Ackie Monitors (Asus, Dell, LG, BDA, and 2 unnamed), a Chacoan Black and White Tegu (Frappuccino), a Crested Gecko (Destin), a Russian Tortoise (Tortellini), and a Boyd's Forest Dragon (Ru Paul). I also have a dog named Thrall (yes, from World of Warcraft) who is a Dachshund/Chihuahua mix - aka a Chiweenie.
My goal with this channel is to share my knowledge, experience and journey with other reptile/animal enthusiasts and become a better caretaker because of it. Hopefully I can learn a lot from the community through these videos.
Outside of reptiles, I am a Masters student researching topics in Natural Language Processing/Human-Computer Interaction within the field of Computer Science. I play a lot of video games. I enjoy any story focused RPG and MMO's like World of Warcraft and Runescape.

STOP WITH THESE MISTAKES! 5 MORE Russian Tortoise Care Mistakes!
loved the video^^ I'm trying to get as much information as I can because I wish to get one and hoping to get one in the fall or next year :D
Wow that was an impressive rhino
do I have to call AP to make a custom enclosure
russian tortoise found me (someone dumped him now he’s mine)
Is it better to keep ackies in a closed top habitat or are screen tops okay?
When they are little you can do it with a screen top. A lot of people will say no way and a PVC enclosure only. If there is enough heat lights and humidity that you have to provide yourself (misting frequently). It can be managed with a screen lid, however once they are an adult size it’s impractical the enclosure needs to be large. PVC all the way for an adult they need a-lot of space and pvc will hold humidity and temp more effectively. 😊
What are your thoughts on leaving it outside during negative temperatures? Lol like let’s say negative thirty In Alaska. XD I was thinking of just washing it and leaving it outside in winter time.
Which one would be best for a beginner? I would go with a akie but would prefer something that’s bite would not make you go to hospital.
is that enclosure you are using to dry the wood full of Gnats? did this work or did you get a lot of gnats or mites?
I got mine from Acks exotic pets and they’re cheap for a reptile such as them and I use coco husk as a substrate because it’s easier for them to dig and mine eats Lots of lettuce
I use coco husk for a substrate and I’m trying to build a bigger wooden enclosure and he’s got everything I just need a few more things
Well mines in a Glass Enclosure but the glass is extremely thick but I have him a good diet, and good temperature and good humidity and he doesn’t spend a lot of time in his Enclosure because I take him outside a lot so he can graze and walk a lot and he also walks around my house with supervision
And yes I’ve done tons of research
What kind of heating temps can you get from those Hallogen Flood lights?? I just got a Red Baby Ackie after my Savannah Monitor passed away. I had one of my Savannahs for almost 20 years and the most recent one I had lived for about 6 years.. The person I got him from didn't know about the UVB and he was already battling MBD. So I got a Red Ackie who is amazing.. He is a very good eater. Bouncing daily between crickets and dubias.. For some reason he wont even try a wax worm.. He looks at them like I look at Asparagus.. LOL I also got him superworms but I heard what you said about giving them Supers as adults.. Can they have them as young monitors? I havent offered him Supers yet but just bought some yesterday.. I also got the zoo med excavator clay which I mist daily.. The tank seems to hold excellent himidity at about 58-68 % basking is about 110-118 degrees. But he is so much fun to watch eat
I have one and he’s so CUTE!
Donkey kong is fucking massive ive never another rhino iguana bigger then him
Can I use a 6x2x2 and still use the same lights?
What humanity for a baby Russian tortoise? How often to bathe them?
I have been doing a lot of research before I getting my first Russian tortoise. These videos have been incredibly helpful. I do have a few questions though... I understand the problem with glass, I'm less clear on the problem with a screen; If it won't contain enough moister why do so many people have an open top enclosure? Is that a bad idea? So far my plan was to have a wooden enclosure with a metal screen for a roof. Where can you buy a tortoise that hasn't been collected in the wild? Do they mind being picked up?
What antibiotics did you use for his mouth and we're can I can get some ??
What uvb light would you recommend and heat. Bulb?
Because naturally central bearded dragons don’t eat geeks as their main diet .
I fucking love this guy.
I know that you breed what are your akies running I have been looking for one
I just got my Russian today and I don’t know if this is a problem but all he has done today is dig and then sleep in the spot he dug in… I’m not sure if that’s a problem, I don’t think it is, but just to make sure i want to know if that’s a problem. Anyone have answers???
What walk water dish is that? I can’t find it!
Spring tales I use a charchole brick and a tube that's Dark and holds moisture put a culture in it and feed them with yeast flakes and you will have tons of springtails in no time only in 1 of My enclosures you can even find once you add them to the enclosure but when I add to bio enclosure I'll put s9me of the brick charcoal in bottom corner and cover with dirt that's were the springtails will lay eggs and if you put it under your water dish then ya always have plenty of moisture but springtails are really easy
What gallon size should the tank be?
GEM.
He says he's never trimmed a beak.
Best ackie content and information on youtube. Got my first ackie not that long ago and ive been watching all your stuff. I hope everything is ok and that youre ok. Sucks that youve been gone for 2 years abruptly. Makes me think something bad happened. Sending positive prayers your way and hope maybe you come back some day. The reptile community you built misses you man. Hope your still here with us. We need people like you in this hobby❤
Hearing your wife banter with you as she supports you with a hobby you enjoy is wholesome.
Not a pet you freaking psychopaths
Bro no 😔
How can i stop my tort from escaping by digging under the fence? If at all...
what about for a young one though. Size home, food it will need etc...
How about flat beach rock? I found a couple about 5x8
What would you suggest as a perfect environment for giant day gecko? I have searched all over and am not getting responses or I get sale pitches. I just need so info. If you have a solid resource please leave a link
Can tegus live in a bedroom with a basking spot no tank?
I had one wander into my front yard today. Trying to find the owner but we’ll see if they step up or see my ads and posts. Are you able to keep them in the backyard safely if we make a safe spot ? Or do you think they’ll dig out of the backyard ?
I had one wander into my front yard today, so looks like we’ll probably be keeping him/her. Looks full grown but someone painted her shell pink. How do I remove this without harming her shell? I know not to scrub it or use a solvent or anything. Just at a loss at how I’m going to get it off. If we keep her we’ll make a safe outdoor home that she can get in and out of and she’ll live outside and have full run of the backyard and then we will bring her in the reptile room for brumation.
Does anyone have any experience with taming down a jeweled Lacerta? I am wondering if this would work for my baby Lacerta
Ignoring it works
That's what Google said
Good video!
I just got a Russian tortoise named tortellini
I have a colombian and those bites are fkn serious‼️😖
Once they start doing the swim move, it's not going to be a good time.
Make a video on building the enclosure like the actual box
should i scrub the belly shell part?
I have to say though, my little Russian enjoys a soak once a week
Desinfection might not be needed for bearded dragon but it's needed to keep our ferniture safe from woodworms that can easily spread around the house. Your metod is good but I would add a woodwoorm killer to that and let it dry for a few days before putting unside vivarium
