- In this episode of "Superdwarf vs. The World", we take on the Scrub Python as a competitor in our quest to discover how the rest of the reptile industry stacks up against the illustrious SD Reticulated Python. And who better to demonstrate the appeal of scrubs other than Steven "The Scrub King" Kush himself?

Apparently scrub pythons make amazing hats 🧡
They have such an interesting color and pattern, but that size is just a bit more than I want to be handling. SD still win in my opinion 😋
You should ask Brian from Brian Boas to represent Boas. Or maybe Jason from Jason Exotics Reptiles. I feel they come the closest to SD Retics, since you can have locality boas of any size from 4ft on up to 13ft, sub species etc. And they are almost all super tame, easy to care for etc. Love your vids! Scrubs are neat too :)
I second Brian Boas, excellent channel
I agree. Brian would be great.
I second this. Give us brian
Brian is the man.
Definitely a little biased, which is expected. However, when Garrett scored the SD Retics he gave honest, fair scores. Like when he was scoring the handle ability of Scrub Pythons, he even mentioned a couple different times how u have to keep watching them, so the score should have been a lot lower like a 3 or 4. Or when he did availability he mentioned there are probably only 3 breeders in the US, so the score should have been like a 2 or 3. This is just my opinion, but to me the point of this is to compare. Like if u were to score a ball python for availability, obviously it would be a ten, a scrub python should not get a 6 or 7 compared to a Ball Python. But I definitely loved learning more about scrubs and I may have to do some more of my own research because they are pretty interesting
Agree - his comments and rating did not match up
@@nyb3672To be fair, these sorts of things are just for fun. If you look too deep into it youll find the same flaws with clints rating system. They are still fun to watch though in my opinion. Id love to get a scrub and a superdwarf some day. I probably never will though, just because i have so many other reptiles higher on my list. Plus there are only so many years in a lifetime, and only so much space in my house lol.
Not to mention the velvet iridescent shine & they are so soft after a shed it's unbelievable!
Would love to own a scrub one day! Great job hosting Thomas.
Love this series! It really highlights all the different passions in this field and there’s nothing better than watching someone talk about the reptiles they love most. It’s educational, heartwarming, and so much fun!
Amazing man ,,, Yes i am cool with the Scrubs as well ,,, One of my Favorites in the python world.
Scrubs look like a lot of fun.
Scrubs should have scored 50 total. Availability is like a 2 compared to an animal like a ball python, support industry is maybe a 2-3 and that’s probably being generous considering there are almost no cbb animals available, diversity should have been a 3-4 despite all the locales that exist, very few are available and I don’t know that any are being selectively bred by locale since captive numbers are so low.
Scrubs are super cool but SD retics def win in a head to head when it comes of being a better pet
A nice educational video. I am really enjoying this series. If I was younger I would love to have a SD retic and a scrubbie.
Scrub python. I think the name needs a little work.
That snake was just being a charming critter!
Totally agree! I wish people worked with more obscure species, because a lot of them are so unique and just as viable a pet as your more common stuff, like boas and ball pythons. Not only that, by keeping and working with them, it's more knowledge added onto what we know about them. As it stands, many of these uncommon reptiles you can't find any information on, so being able to change that as we learn more about how to keep them would be rad.
I'm trying to work with Candoia/ ground boas myself. I think they're splendid animals!
Scrubs are awesome, I actually didn't know there were that many subspecies or that much locality variety!
Captive-breds almost totally unavailable = 7/10! I guess 6/10 would be not available as imports either and 5/10 would be extinct?
The rating system was "interesting" to say the least haha
Scrub Pythons are not often featured. I think they are beautiful. The beauty giving Steven Kush snake hugs is a snake I would love to own. Hope they become more available as Captive Bred in the future. Availability is a problem at present unless one buys a wild caught.
I don’t think scrubs should’ve taken SD. For a very even competitive head to head, I would have to say Boas vs SD retics.. now that’s a close one!
That tail dangling over his ear, tho! LOL! SP's... enh, maybe when I retire and have more time to devote to a higher focus species. SD's and dwarf Burms are probably going to find their way into my life sooner than that. And may I suggest a SD VS Dwarf Burmese episode? I'd love to see how that stacks up.
I can't hardly ever find dwarf burmese anymore. When i do they are like 3 grabd. They used to be a lot more common around here, and cheaper too. I can find half dwarf burms, but I almost never see pure dwarf burms. They are rare even on morphmarket it seems. I do agree itd be a good video comparison though!
Another great video! Solid head to head!
Scrubs are awesome and seriously underrated. I adore mine, so much fun to interact with - the confidence is no joke.
Given the choice, I think i'd have to go with a scrub python. I like the different looks of the different localities. They are also less popular around here and I tend to like keeping the more unusual species. Super dwarfs are cool too though. Its just that timor pythons already exist, and are argually cooler than SD retics (Just in my opinion! No offence!).
Retics are also just not what i think of when im in the market for a small to medium sized snake. They are what i think of when i want a big one. Thats just me though! If I cared more about morphs I bet Id be all over super dwarfs. I just kind of prefer the more natural looks of different localities and sometimes line bred stuff.
now i want a scrub python...
Kush the best one to do the Scrubs hands down!!
Do Bredli pythons!
The bonus round on this one should have been you can wear them as a hat. SD's don't sit still long enough for that... unless Garrett prove it wrong;);)
Talk to Brian Kusko about SD retic hats....
My sds love to be hats, anytime I have them out they try to make their way up on to my head. So does my Hog island boa actually. But retics definitely go up, and my sd boy for sure will sit there while I clean enclosures, or make food, etc.
@@IHarschTwo of my retics and one of my burms are obsessed with cieling fans. Almost every time they come out, their eyes lock onto it and it becomes their mission to climb on it lol. I already had to entirely replace one cieling fan because the burm i mentioned decided she was a tree snake and absolutely obliterated the thing. She also destroyed the light fixture in our bathroom, and bent some shower rods. But back to the fan.... not only did she break off 3 blades, it wouldnt even spin right when she was done. She bent the casing or something. So i had to replace the entire thing. She is the weirdest burm i have ever owned. Shes FAST too. Always on the run, not chill girl like most burms. She also occassionally hisses to herself in her enclosure super loudly even if no other animals are in her room. We joke that she can see ghosts lol.
super such a trustfull joung python and this pal, rarely seen, how patiecefull and trustfull and friendly snakes could be. I know that from my taeniura frisei taiwan rat snakes well. :-))
Perfect result. Would love either but lean towards scrub for personality.
Literally just got my first scrub from him today... Haha. How ironic .. 😂
It’s really hard to find a good one. I have looked the same with olive pythons.
I loved this video and you looked like an angel with a snake halo. :)
I see about 50 of these a year. Here in Brisbane Australia, they are easy to find in summer.
You're probably referring to the Coastal Carpet Python. Australian Scrub Pythons can only be found in FNQ.
I like how the scrub python was not affected by what was going on around it , just tooling around and becoming a hat. 😂😂
GOD BLESS 🐍💖🐍💖🐍💖
Scrub pythons can almost as long as read text just not as thick
Scrubs are cool, no doubt, but retics they ain't. Between their personality, the morphs, and especially the growing number and popularity of dwarf and super dwarf retics, there's just no comparison in my eyes.
That being said, I totally agree with him about the overenphasis on morphs, and even the way hobbyists tend to look at things like ball pythons, often having a large number, but keeping them in racks, and it seems like every body who owns more than one ball python is breeding them. I have one ball python, and it's a normal I got 20 years ago now. For me, the novelty of morphs sort of wears off over time, especially given how quickly new morphs are coming about and how many genes people are mixing in one snake(not to mention the fact that ball pythons look their best right when you buy them, and just look "worse"(i.e. faded, blended, less clean looking/less contrast, etc.) over time.
Just give me a snow super dwarf, a boelen's, a few ETBs & GTPs, and a black dragon and I'll probably never leave my house again. Lol.
Okay, and throw in a scrubby, what the hell.
**edit**
And some boa constrictors. I feel like despite being the most well known constrictor in the world(or at least in the U.S.), they still somehow underrated. Some of the boa morphs/lines are _crazy,_ and you still have variation in size as well. Plus there's just something about a boa. That gorgeous head with the sort of upswept mouth, their almost rectangular build with the visible striations of their muscles, and just the power and strength they have.
I gotta agree with the scrub guy. If breeders in the hobby picked just one non common reptile and bred them regularly, there would be much more diversity at shows and in the hobby as well
That was a great point!
Yep hands down best snake hat EVER 🤣🤣
No contest…. Weetic, all day.
I love them Scrubs tho
🤘🤘🤘🤘
I've had many spiecs SD retics best I loved my mainland but to big
This series is fun but i have to disagree with the scrub python rating. Nothing against the scrub python but the very biased rating. For example the anaconda got a 4 on attainability and the scrub got a 7 but if you listen to the explanations the scrub sounds like much harder to attain. Just my opinion but by his explanations all his scores should have been lower when compared to other keepers explanations and how they rank each category.
Each guest definitely has their own way of reading animals.
Maybe by the end of the series, we should do a viewer rating- see what a less biased court of public opinion thinks?
@@ReachOutReptiles that would be so cool to see! And a larger sample size for each species rating could help balance out bias a little. I agree that the commentary he gave did not match up to the scores- saying they have thinner skin and are more sensitive and can get blisters followed immediately by high ratings for ease of care and durability seems a bit disingenuous. Let alone the availability score.
