    I loved seeing the Western Painted Turtle, I see them all the time where I live. I helped dig up a nest of them earlier today, with the droughts the ground was rock hard and we got worried the nest we marked in the spring wouldn't be able to dig themselves out. 12 little baby painted turtles. Love your work Mr. Galante!

  • @amberbrown6799
    @amberbrown6799 Před 8 měsíci +12

    Love little horse and donkey but my fave were the giant toroises. Also love the way you nonchalantly ripped the flowers off to feed them. Great that you saved them all and that they live a wonderful life and are clearly very loved and spoilt!!

    Forrest as a fellow Californian it looks like you need a defendable space around your house. Wild fires are no joke we lost my entire hometown of paradise ca to wildfire. Now in the spring time is the time to get it done. Live your channel and thank you for an insight on your animals.

  • @bill887
    @bill887 Před 8 měsíci +15

    This is all awesome. Absolutely love that you rescue all these animals. I rescued a field mouse (western Pennsylvania mouse) I found outside when he was a tiny baby. I got him to his adolescent years and attempted to release him but he just wanted to stay where he was, so he lives in a 20gal aquarium in my living room. Oh and this was 4 years ago, he’s going on his 4th Christmas with us. Don’t know how long they live, but he’s been wonderful.

    I love the idea of using native snakes to control pests. Once when I lived in Costa Rica I had a baby boa come up to me on a seawall and I took it home to play with. A local lady I knew asked what I was going to do with it. I promised it to her and kept it a week or so. I fed it a baby chicken. Then I gave it to her to put in their ceiling for bat control. She let it go in the rafters. The bats moved out or got eaten.

    Wow! Thanks so much for your wonderful tour Forrest, much appreciated!
    With so many beautiful turtles in your household, I was surprised to not see a snapping turtle. When i was a young lad, a great friend of mine and I used to go "turtle hunting" on occasion, in Southern Ontario, Canada. There were a number of distinct and gorgeous breeds we caught (and released of course) but my absolute fave were the baby Snappers we caught.
    With their rugged, spiked shells, long claws and razor sharp beaks, they were truly prehistoric beasts resembling animals that just crawled out of the Mesozoic Era, heh.
    I think your Son would be quite amazed by their distinct and unique attributes should you elect to adopt one. 🤩
    Cheers Buddy!

    As a midwesterner I love when I see a turtle and my favorite is the painted turtle for its pretty colors.

  • @RaptureSniping
    @RaptureSniping Před 8 měsíci

    Your skink is exactly why I started rescuing them. There are so many species and they easily get confused. Even the Northerns need 40-60% humidity. They are some of the most rewarding animals. The Northern I recently rescued had some gnarly scale root due to her shed never fully coming off in to dry of an environment. 2 months later in the right conditions and her head is looking brand new!

    omg the little baby turtles are so cute. I had a small red eared slider like that and he was just like those guys. Every time you approached the tank he would come at you and swim in his habitat looking for food. They're so cute and they recognize their owners.

    I'm a big fan of all that you do. Always loved animals and reptiles especially. I know what it's like to have tanks in every room. My last reptile was an emydura macquari. I find that turtles are the most interactive reptiles and actually get excited to see you. I'm a property caretaker and pet specialist. I'd love to work for you.

    Favorite animal, probably would be Rosie! I love the story on how you saved her life and how long you’ve had her. It’s an amazing testament to reptiles durability. I recently lost my 10 foot Retick in my attic, and I have no crawlspace heartbreaking not knowing if it’s going to survive or not, I moved to Oregon from Santa Barbara about seven years ago and would have loved to have known you lived there and maybe got to spend a little bit of time just talking to you and learning from you would’ve been amazing.

    of EVERY family of creatures, on earth. Insect ( scorpions ) , mammals, invertebrate, cephalapods ( octopus ) , fish, avian ( birds ) , reptiles, amphibians, corals, sponges, anenomes, crustaceans & so forth

    Aww wow this is amazing to see! You have a beautiful home and wonderful backyard. It warms my heart that you opened your home to so many rescue reptiles!
    Sad they didn't know what species of blue tongue they were dealing with, quick research on the internet could have fixed that so it's not really an excuse this day in age to not properly care for your animals.
    I love that you're a turtle guy! You should have a collab with garden state tortoise if you're ever in jersey!

    Love the Rosy boas that have a lot of blue like that, blue-greys etc. Def a very varied boa, tho true boas are quite varied too! I keep Sonoran boas and a Colombian, then the True Red Tails, Bolivian/Brazillian Short Tails, Peru Long Tails etc. So varied! Awesome stuff man, so cool to get kids into animals and reptiles too. Given the negative reputation of reptiles and the stigma etc i especially appreciate that. My son still hasnt warmed up given his moms deep fear of snakes, but we will get there lol
