VIDEO IDEA 🙃
Can you please do a video at the end of breeding season where you review all of your pairings? So eg „next pairing: Enzo and Brad. We hoped for big, red babies. We got 20 eggs, and kept 2 babies. Next pairing: Lily and Shane Co. We hoped for XY and got XY“. Do you know what I mean? Same style than the breeding plans video, but with results. This would be great ❤
Oooh that would be really interesting to watch!!
I'd even be interested in last year's head count like this too
That would be lovely
Ohhh yes I am always wondering so it's a really good idea!!
Yes please!!!!
My heart is with the little brown baby. Made it out of the egg on its own which shows some fighting spirit, IMO. 💚
Me too. I really hope he makes it. 🐍🥰
I'm a fan of the tiny chocolate noodle!
❤❤😂 0:06 😮 0:15 ❤😂😂 0:52 🎉🥳😎wen the baby's came out
Same I hope it makes it
Same it's very cute
I’m the researcher/fan who reached out over the strange… sharpie color data collection saga. Lol. The data was actually from the past few years, not only the last breeding season, though admittedly all the colors were a recent addition so the color data sample was much smaller than the black sharpie data group. It absolutely could be a coincidence, but after noticing certain pigments like the orange and golds associated with more “bad eggs”, just had to pass the information along. So glad to hear it’s sparking another mini experiment. Lol. The researcher in me appreciates it. ❤
Out of curiosity, is your research just collecting data from the hatch rates, or are you looking into the science behind why the hatch rates might be lower?
It makes sense that the pigmentations could have a negative reaction, like how artificial flavoring (via the pigmentation) had a link to cancer in humans.
@@demonkingnetsu4045 I’m a trained researcher, but my research isn’t in this field. I actually just was curious when watching old hatch videos because I had a hypothesis about the red pigments (which didn’t actually seem to bear out, incidentally) and I started comparing the marking videos to their corresponding hatch videos, and went back about two and change years collecting data. That’s all I did- compile data sets for them, and send them a nerdy “hey, this could be a total coincidence, but here you go!” Lol.
I'm so glad you did! That was such a good spot, it might even save some little snakes down the line 😊 also, did you do any stats analysis beyond correlation? Just interested in how the data came out, I love stats lol
@@honeycheerios42 With the size of the data, it was really just an exploratory data set analysis, with identifying outliers in the set and flagging *possible patterns. There wasn’t enough to really get into predictive or a prescriptive analysis- but basically, all that said… I just had too much time on my hands to go back and forth watching and labeling a LOT of videos to check a hypothesis while I was sick for a few days. Lol! XD
@@heliagrey that's cool, obviously it's pretty limited what you can do with colours and eggs lol but it's very interesting, thanks. I hope they get some good data from their experiments!
So glad the three good eggs all came out safely! If you keep the brown colored runt, I hope you name it Hershey :)
amazing name suggestion! I'd love to see they keep that beauty for breeding or such, Hershey would be a perfect name
Great name idea !
yeah, cause the worst tasting chocolate out there is a great name for a baby that's probably not gonna make it???
@Kittiebittiebit wow that was really negative friend, you good?
@@Kittyintheraiyn you ok? Or does Hershey bars always give you negative reactions
Hearing Ed speaking in fluent baby talk with the newly hatched Mangroves was absolutely what I needed to see to get me through this morning. lol... Congrats on the latest clutch, those 3 look super healthy and gorgeous.
"Do you have any kinks?" Would be an awesome tee shirt...with a snake on it of course😂
The color experiment is very interesting, especially considering the orange statistics. If I remember correctly the runt came from the egg with the orange marker (I may be rembering wrong), so it's definitely something to keep an eye on.
It did come from the one w. the orange; you spotted correctly!
It's not a large enough data set. But it's a nice experiment. Like the whole, "Does eating broccoli make you smarter?" experiment.
@@ghostsuru8429well i wouldn't be surprised if it is the pigment, artificial colors have been known to be harmful and eggs are porous I believe
They had 2 smaller eggs tho, and clearly the yellow got absorbed. And the largest baby came from one of the eggs that for sure absorbed pigment
If you know someone that breeds finches you can ask for them to freeze if any of the baby chicks pass. I never did breed finches or small song birds but some species are quite hard to breed and if they have big clutches parents are not good in feeding them all so some die.
Chick producers for commercial chicken farms?
@@katiekane5247 No no but people who breed small songbirds as a sport. usually they are for exhibitions, singing contests for the birds etc. I am not much in to it but I know few in my country and they unfortunately have losses every year. I did wild bird rescue and would ask them on advice on how to hand feed or even what to feed adult birds as in time they became masters of this. I would also ask for hand feed formulas and mixes. I know they try to save every baby but when you have baby birds that are a size of a finger nail and very sensitive it is not always possible. Sometimes they even die due to inexperienced parents. So these can be frozen and used for baby mangroves if they refuse to eat everything else.
I'm pretty sure they do have that connection since they bred egg eating snakes in the past and needed tiny eggs
@DuneDemon8 Singing contests? For real? Well that’s made my day! 😄
@@trala8911 English is not my first language but for example male canaries learn their songs by listening older males. In time their songs become more and more complex, have different elements (parts) in them etc. This is then judged in competitions - how long the song is, how many different parts it has, how complex it is. And then birds get awards. You can check canary singing competition on youtube but sometimes other species are also used, to be judged both on their appearance and song.
Please do an updated meet all our snakes video! It'd be so interesting to see who you all still have vs your newer snakes 🐍 been watching since your feed my pet fridays videos 😊
first bump! ❤
bumpy bumpy bumpy
YESS
Gumby bumby
The runts will be always my favorites, so cute, calm and such a big head lol
I really really hope they make it, and if so please keep the runt 🥺❤
Eds hand looks like it had a meeting with a kitten :D So happy that you decided to cut the eggs early! I was just thinking about that one clutch! I was kinda heartbroken when we saw that the babies tried to come out but couldnt :(
I was trying to decide if Ed had had an encounter with a big lizard or with Cheyenne. Kitten is a remote possibility.
I was gonna say, whose cat did he wash?
Boiga is one of my favorite genera of snakes. If the babies don't take to pinkies, maybe also try small fish, as that's a pretty big part of their diet as babies; along with small frogs, tadpoles, etc.
Bumping so they see!
I always found the markers to be a little concerning, especially with the amount of ink being used in recent time in comparison to surface area of the egg. In medical practice it's frowned upon to use sharpies on IV bags as it's thought the chemicals can permeate through. The same goes for bird eggs where people prefer to use pencils or crayons so there's no chemicals potentially permeating the shell and effecting the developing chicks. Neither have been tested with any solid conclusion so it will be interesting to know the results of these tests, but I still wince everytime sharpie is put on the eggs :s
My thoughts!!
The black sharpies didn't seem to cause much concern- with outlier data removed, the appx rate of viable eggs that were marked with black sharpie over the past two years of (shown) clutches was about 88.8%. A great rate, overall. Though the color sharpie data set was much smaller set (as fewer eggs are marked in color to begin with, and over a shorter period of time), the success rate was between about 59.64 and 68% for a viable egg. (Outlier data removed improved the percentage.) The sample size is too small to draw a meaningful conclusion yet, so I'm really glad they're running a larger experiment. :)
I wonder if the goop was so yellow because of the sharpie ink absorbing. I’d be curious to find out with a bullsnake clutch or some familiar species.
I would think that pencil could potentially be worse, since lead is so toxic...
@@Marzi29 pencils dont have lead, it's graphite. I think the issue is more being afraid it would puncture the egg ( which are usually softer shelled than bird eggs)
I will never tire of Emily and Ed's boundless enthusiasm for the arrival of new babies.
Are we already reaching baby season?? It's my favorite time of year!!
It’s baby season! Yay! Good luck, littlest baby Boiga! I’m cheering for you!
Emily was so happy about the babies that she made up a word - 'excitingness'!
Call the little guy 'Hulk' - he burst out of his shell, and it's an encouraging irony.
heya Ed and Emily! just wanted to point out, "differently abled" is often used as a derogatory/avoidant term for disabled people like myself, it's generally seen as patronizing ^^" disabled is not a bad word, I think the word/phrase you may have been looking for was "stunted" or "uncoordinated?"
just letting y'all know!
If ur planning to keep the one that strikes, call him/her Chilli because of his/her spiciness and his/her reddish color :)
And the theme on the eggs.
You can say their or its you know right? You don’t have to do all that
It's SO much easier to say “they”
who cares if they want to write it that way let them
@@Saturnm0ss yeah or even just it, as many people refer to an unknown animal as lol. Since the animal itself doesn't care about having its sex be identified
All the scratches on Ed's arm! 😲
Yes! Come tell us who did it!
monitor lizards or skinks im assuming
I love the runt so much, I hope it makes it! As a disabled person I have a tendency to fall in love with disabled animals
I have a one eyed Toad. I found him as a baby with the eye missing and the wound still open. I’m not blind but I’m in a wheelchair so I couldn’t let him die.
me too! i'm disabled as well(cane user) and it always makes me smile to see disabled animals getting accommodations
Aww! They are so cute and lucky to have you as owners!
They are probably gonna sell them
@@sadiee.q yeah probably, but they’re still lucky to be raised with them
@@sadiee.q They just said that they will more than likely keep at least one of the bigger ones, the small ones aren't expected to survive.
you are so right
Fun Fact: Mangrove swamps, and trees, were added in Minecraft 1.19, the most recent update. Sadly no mangrove snakes, only frogs, bees, and tropical fish, the former also being added in that update. Hopefully they add snakes of some sort at some point. Maybe they would work like frogs do, where they look different depending on where they grow up?
Had this same thought. I'm old enough that I knew about mangroves before MC introduced them, but definitely know more since they showed up in my beloved game.
Kevin would be a great person to talk to about Boiga breeding! I know they’re famously finicky and he’s talked about how he spent a long time perfecting his incubation environment and his eggs have great hatch and success rates :)
I love how Emily calls da babies blobs! Its is so heartwarming💙
Cheering on the little guy!!! He made it out, he can survive if he keeps on fighting!!! We are rooting for you little one!!!
Mangroves are so beautiful! The orangey yellow with the black is just:🤯.hope I’ll visit Snake Discovery someday! 🐍
I have always wondered if the different colored markers made any type of difference, so I am so stoked y'all are doing the experiment! Lol. I think at this point, I would trust Emily with MY life. Lol. Any research I find, I always see if Emily covered that topic, I usually take the advice, and information from her. I really wish I had her on speed dial when my Beardie got sick. The vets around me know nothing. I wish there was like a reptile hotline number. Lol...btw, I love that Ed mentioned giving the other baby to the 1st person in the list. No favoritism. ❤
TBH if there was ANY chance that marker ink (especially alcohol based ones) could impact survival I would just give up the practice altogether.
I hope we get an update about the runt quickly. We're all pulling for that little underdog.
Keep us updated on how smol bebeh mangrove does, fingers crossed he thrives 🤞🤞❤🐍
Perhaps the Sharpie pigment is pH-sensitive, and changes colour depending on the environment? If there's a single green pigment, it changes to blue; if the green is a combination of blue and yellow, the yellow either turns blue or disappears?
I feel like Ed and Emily are such good snake caretakers that they automatically know which ones are goin to survive but they don’t know themselves, so they get pleasantly surprised when they see an egg they thought wasn’t going to make it hatch. Some day I want to be such a good snake owner I have the awesome instincts they have
OMG they finally hatched the babies are so adorable (btw:can we pls get an update on the kukri snake)
So egg-cited for these and more hatchings in the future!! ❤
The runt is my favorite and has all my prayers for his/her future!
How to tell when your mangrove is done check the pepper indicator when it changes from green to blue expect pretty noodles soon😂
I like when you dissect the eggs that go bad, very interesting to see what's left inside.
So cute! Very excited for the ball python eggs, could you do more videos on the turtles and tortoises? Love them
Very cute and adorable sneks
Fr
I’ve never seen a black snake hatch on your channel before,so I was very curious and excited 😊
I’m replying myself
Mangroves are a really wet environment. I wonder if those jyst need a whole lot more moisture than the other kinds of eggs to keep them pliable.
I sorta love the little runt. But I always have a soft spot for runts and underdogs. Also the chocolate color is interesting.
I just discovered this channel probably a few weeks back and I love it so much. It’s so wholesome and it already has a special place in my heart. Please keep uploading 😊.
Congratulations on your baby mangroves
I have to root for the runt!! I really hope he makes it, they're all so freaking cute!!!
Hi I am a huge fan of you. I fell in love with snakes when I was 4 because that was the first and last time I touched a snake. PS it was a Leopard Ball Python .😊🐍😊
I like all three, but I'm rooting for the runt. I hope he makes it. I want to see how the color develops.
May I ask what in God's name happened to Ed's hand. Was he trying to pet an angry cat or something?! Geeze his hand is shredded! 😮
God those are beautiful snakes
Ikr
Number two on my snake wishlist
I like the one who was tail rattling when you first checked them out !!
Congrats! The babies are beautiful. I'm not sure but, it looks like maybe one has googly eyes more than the other two.
It's really cool that you got such variation in colors.
I always love baby season. When Emily gets excited about the hatching she often sounds just like the Muppet Gonzo. Hey that might be a cool name.
Poor Ed, all scratched up. Thanks for the video
“Look what I’ve got” 😂 We love Ed
i was looking forward to this one!
weird that the one egg ballooned and the shell was so thick you didn't even think they could make it out on their own. worth checking into that
i like the red one! (you called it orange?) good luck to the runt hope it does make it and goes to a good home :)
I have been watching your videos for about 4- 5 years and you are the won who helped me be who i am today
The focus of the camera was as wobbly as the babies. 😂 Still happy to see such googly eyed stinkers though!
My favorite is the brown one..the runt..come on little guy, I'm pulling for you!!
Its the most wonderful time of the year... HATCHING SEASON!
The little chocolate baby is my favorite ❤️ I’m rooting for them! 👏
Ahhhh baby season. After all the eggs hatch y’all should make a video reviewing which pairs did or didn’t have healthy babies and if they came out as you expected or if weird stuff happened.
I like the brown one if he survives call him Licorice, or Shoestring, or Bootstrap Bill XD Either way he's adorable.
Watching Snake Discovery videos right after getting dinner and **DING** NEW VIDEO! YAAAAAS! 😃
Slowly becoming obsessed with watching all these videos eventhough I have never owned a reptile in my life 😆
LOVE the birthday banner btw. 🤩
This was awesome!! What unique, pretty little babies! My favorites are always the runts and special needs babies. Please keep us updated on his progress!!
Beautiful little snekks=3 So excited for them and all the future babes=3
"They're so friendly!"
Looking at all the scratches on Ed's arm.
You're not going to fool me!
We need updates on these little guys there so amazing
Three years ago, our local zoo started an animal godparentship program where you could pay an annual fee to be a specific animal's godparent. The money would be used to contribute to that animal's vet and food expenses. My cousins were both gifted a godparentship of their choice by my parents.
The younger one (almost 5 at that time) chose a guinea pig. The older one, who was then 7, opted for a Burmese Python. I'm telling you, she definitely doesn't shy away from snakes!
Do you do a baby review after hatching season is over? You make a good list of what you are hoping for but it woukd be nice to see if you guys have a contest to see if the guesses were right or not once they are all hatched
I hope the tiny one makes it. After all, their egg was the only one you didn't have to cut open. So please thrive little one! Eat and be strong.
please keep us updated on the tiny baby! we'd love to know its fate.
I love mangroves. I wana get some someday 😊
Those are such beautiful snakes!
Beautiful babies.. the Mangroves used to be my favorite as a kid.. don't know.. these black and yellow..looks amazing
Feels illegal to watch with 6 likes 😂
Yeah lol, it says no views and 56 seconds ago

Totally would love to see an update video on this one down the line.
Just an FYI: a lot of people in the disabled community find the term "differently abled" to be highly demeaning. It implies disability is such a bad thing that the word "disability" shouldn't be used. And it ignores the core fact that we are disabled, there are things we can't do. Disability doesn't give us some magic abilities that other people don't have. I also feel like the term implies that I don't have any of the same abilities as anyone else. I have a lot of the same abilities, but the key point is that there are some things I'm unable to do. Please use the term disabled.
^^^this
Yep. Disabled isn't a bad word!
this exactly! i made a similar comment! it stung to hear Ed say that :(
I'd be worried about the CZcams bots and algorithms being unhappy with certain terms. Those robots are ruthless.
While I 100% respect and understand your preference(and those that commented), I have seen the opposite said in comments as well. I think this is a damned if you do damned if you don't thing. Kind of like "with autism vs autistic." Our community is split on which people prefer. Don't be to harsh on Ed because I don't think he was trying to be disrespectful❤
Congratulations on having baby Mangrove Snakes and this is the second video of reptile related CZcams channel that involved baby snakes today. And I like the orange Mangrove Snake. 🙂👍🐍
By the way, most disabled people consider ‘differently abled’ to be an offensive term. It’s best to just say disabled🙂
Yup!
Disabled people know they're disabled, it's kinda weird to call it "differently able" lol
Reminds me of racist ableist teachers who called dyslexic people that
As someone with disabilities I don’t find it offensive because it’s true. My abilities are different and that doesn’t make it a bad thing.
@@TheUnlovedSoul1 As a disabled person I don’t like the term, but everyone is different. If it works for you use it 💗
@@TheUnlovedSoul1 well, everyone thinks differently, but if you're disabled then you're not "differently abled", you are just not able in that area of your disability.
Like autistic people, some people say they are not disabled but differently abled, but no, we are really NOT able in some aspects, like social aspects for example, and it's alright lol
@@DINGD0NG... But autistic people are able in other aspects, which is where the "differently" abled comes from.
I love the runt 🥺✨ I'll keep my hopes for him even if it makes me cry that he dies 🥹✨
I must ask, what do bad snake eggs smell like? Is it anything like duck or chicken eggs when they go south? Just curious. Love the channel and all you do! Keep up the great work Ed, Emily and crew!! ❤
Sending lots of love from David & Gregory (son - 10 yrs old) from Alaska!
I have been watching this channel for forever 😊
Early gang!
Wooooo!!🎉
Iv never seen baby mangroves before!!! They'er cute!!!
Just wanted to say around the 13 minute mark Ed says 'differently abled', I know it was kinda joking but disabled people overwhelmingly prefer the term disabled, and find 'differently abled' offensive. Source: I am disabled
(Didn't want to make it too much of a lecture but for context, the reason it is found offensive is it because it is used pretty much solely by able people, who then frequently lecture us that it's actually the correct term regardless of disabled people's widespread dislike of it, in order to essentially whitewash them our disabilities. It eliminates the idea that regardless of capability, disabled and able people are equal, instead saying that disabled people must be as close to able as possible in order to be equal. Essentially promoting the idea that our disabilities are only acceptable when they are not disabling. Not that that was the intended message here whatsoever, of course, just wanted to provide some context.)
this!
Googly eyes ❤ I look forward to egg-hatching-season every year since I started following your channel and I am so excited now ❤
If the colour changed tbh I think they should stop doin it
a baby snake hissing looks SO CUTE
emily... "they are just naturally Kinky"
mangroves are now on my list of cutest snake babies
(among hognoses, ball pythons, bullsnakes, and those argentine boas were stinking cute too)
Hey, just a friendly reminder disabled isn't a dirty word. I have a learning disability and differently abled is an offensive term to a lot of us in the community. I am coming from a place of love, and want people to learn that disabled isn't a dirty word.
this!!
I love brownie ❤ My prayers with the shmall baby! 🙏🙏
Get your early "ticket" within an hour here
Hi😅
Hi
Yas
✋🏼
Yes
I love that a fan complied Sharpie hatch rate data. Fascinating!!!
I will admit seeing the yellow sharpie “fade” from the eggs at the beginning worried me. What if the pigment got absorbed with its harmful chemicals by the egg? It could hurt the babies 🥺
Please tell me you guys are looking into it more
The two that lost color were the two healthy babies. The runt was actually from the orange egg which makes the observation more interesting when they said none of the oranges ever hatch - he hatched and was runted. Could be a coincidence, could be something in orange sharpies.
I wondered about that too, not sure if Sharpies are non toxic or not. I have a blue one in front of me but it doesn't say non toxic anywhere on the pen. 😟
They are AP-certified non-toxic, and aren't harmful to us if you write on human skin with Sharpies. Sharpies are alcohol-based, which means that they do fade over time - and at different rates for the different inks.
You know, I was having a pretty rotten day today, but this cheered me up. Your energy is so wonderful and positive and your joy so palpable, it really gave me the smiles I needed today.
Loved the video, but it made me a bit sad to hear Ed say “differently abled”. Most disabled people, including myself, dislike the term. I know he didn’t mean anything bad, I just hope he can learn from this.
cane user here, i feel the same way, i also hate that term :(
I am rooting for the runt snake. I have always gotten runt pets and they have always gotten big and chunky.
12:58 please don’t say differently abled, it really downplays the struggles that disabled people do face
Sincerely, a disabled person
agreed! i hope at least one of the comments addressing this reaches them
-sincerely, a cane user
Congratulations!! What beautiful babies!
Hey Ed, no disrespect to you BUT you are allowed to say disabled. Most disabled people I know (myself included) aren’t fans of “differently abled) or if I’m alone in this other disabled people go ahead and correct me
I agree
I'm not disabled myself, but I follow a lot of disabled creators with big community's of disabled people, and that's the term they generally prefer over trying to "censor" the word, because "disabled" isn't a bad word, and it's not bad to be so. It just is the way some people are.
i'm disabled and i agree!
