Insane Texas Snake Hunting! Indigos, Giant Toad, and Milksnakes Under Tin! 

Kyle’s POV: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7GnLh119gus.htmlsi=x7BESnW6DXIrvKep

I love Indigos. Such big chonky snakes that are fairly friendly. They have such big beautiful iridescent black scales. I wish they weren't endangered in GA. I'd love to see one in person.

Good to know Indigos are doing well there.

98 Texas Indigos for Clint! Whaaaatt!! Congrats guys on the Coniophanes!

Those Indigo Snakes have massive scales, very beautiful snakes 🐍💞🐍

What a killer trip!! Double Milk flip & stacking Indigo's like they were Racers!! I gotta say Milks are awesome, but something about a big gentle Indigo just really takes the cake!!

So Glad the Indigo was the most common snake!

Not only are these guys helping the environment through documenting encounters, they are also increasing the knowledge of what biologists thought the maximum geographical range was of these animals. Good job with the conservation guys

Man, Kyle leap frogged that cactus like nobody's business. Noah and Kyle herping teamed up is a recipe for INSANE success. This is one of my favorite videos I've seen in a minute. Yall are straight bosses of the herp world. That indigo looked like it busted a huge amount of jizz on your shirt 😂. Thank you for all you do and the amazing footage you bring to us subscribers. Catch you on the flip-side Noah. Richard from Arkansas

The double flip of patch noses was awesome. Still (over 4 decades) . . . one of my very favorite snake species!

Wow Noah! What an awesome trip you had! I am thrilled that it went this well. I am so glad you got to see some beautiful milk snakes and all of the other many snakes were an amazing bonus. Those indigo’s were so chunky and easy going. The jump by Kyle over the cactus was epic, to say the least. What a way to bring in 2024 for us! Stay safe and healthy and I look forward to whatever comes next!!! 😄💙🐬🐊🐍🫶🏼

Wow. Those milks are gorgeous!

Sheesh. Is there anything you guys didn't find? It was raining Indigos and milks. And that FOOD? I'm booking a Pop Milk trip.

7 indigos i gotta watch this!! Love drymarchon!! 🤘❤️❤️🐍

One of the best single day videos I have ever seen by RU-vid herpers!!

Best video yet supper nice!

Annulata=Gods favorite Milk. Great Job Guys. That is one fertile area. Healthy and multiple specimens of multi species 👍🏻

You should do a herping trip to Mexico or Central America, Noah. 🇲🇽🐍🦎🐸

Beautiful Indigos!

That Indigo gave you that money shot

I just found your channel, and thank you for showing snakes located in my home state of Texas. I'm originally from Tyler but I now live in Dallas. I had no idea that we have such gorgeous snakes, fantastic!!😊😊❤❤

What a trip and video... a little bit of everything including getting pooped and peed on! Those big indigo's and their big handsome heads remind me of black cobras! Oh, and the double-milk flip was epic! Cheers!

Blue Indigos are my favorite of all snake's ❤

This one is absolutely insane

Wow

Man, I'd love a pair of those Indigos!

Noah can sure spot em out on the crawl.

EPIC

Stopped everything I was doing when I saw the number 7 and indigo

Nice Texas indigos, Lampropeltis, ratsnakes and others. The numbers of animals were also phenomenal. I didn’t expect indigo snakes to be so calm. Something equivalent in the Old World would give you a very hard time. Generally North American snakes seem calm.

great video!! hi guys! have a good day and week. I hope all is well.

I love these videos!

This may have been the most amazing tin flipping I've ever seen. I have never seen so many indigo's in my life. Keep this place top secret, guard it with your life. Also, the mild snakes.... Are you kidding me! Great video as always. My friend & I used to help when we were younger & now that I can't find anywhere to go, this really is exciting to an old fella. Found a baby eastern king recently in my neighborhood, I was so excited! That being said, thank you for doing this. I'm living vicariously through your videos 😂

Ah this was August not now. o id probably waste time looking now in that area.

What part of TX are you hunting? at this time of year?

This not only had some fantastic herps, it was also very entertaining to watch. I look forward to the next one. PS- 7 indigos in a single day is ridiculous.

I live in FL where keeping an Eastern Indigo snake is nearly impossible to do legally. So i bought a hatchling Texas indigo back in 2005. I sold her in 2010 and I've missed that animal ever since. Such amazing critters! Great video Noah

Those indigos look a lot like king cobra, that's amazing!

I love Indigos!

I was super excited to see that you were down here in the thornscrub!! Yall were nearby!! Woulda been awesome to bump into yall here in my neck of the woods!!

Nice video. I live in the Houston area and was pleased to see all the snakes you guys turned up along the coast and in south Texas.

Awesome Snakes all off them are awesome finds

Great video! Love your content NFK:)

Congratulations on the double flip annulata, Noah!! Clint and Kyle are the bomb for sure when it comes to Texas milks. I believe you are the bomb with respect to milks in Dixie and Will in the northeast.

The indigos are such thicc snakes; maybe it’s how blocky the head looks but they seem even bigger than that huge diamondback you found. The only ones I like more that you find are eastern coachwips; something about the coloration and pattern is so cool. And how long they are.

All the indigo snakes I’ve ever seen were black with red nose maybe so this is a treat for me too thanks guys appreciate it !

For me the Indigo is the ultimate snake that you can find in the USA, way above any other snake part from the Eastern Indigo. Its really reassuring to see that the Texas Indigo is quite common, at least I the area where you guys are flipping.

Wow; no wonder Clint is your point man at the lead. How he managed to detect Indigos 3 & 4 before they slithered away us beyond me. Kudos guys. That high grass is prime indigo habitat. 7 indigos and 0 atrox!! Bizarrely Amazing!!!

I have consumed a large marshmallow.

Its nice to see indigos,when i was a kid i saw a indigo snake that was about ten feet or more in lenght, very fat too like it was eating rabbits.Ive never seen one again that big ever since all the development here in florida.

Excluding the couple DORs, annulata is the last milk I need.

@13:02 we learn that snakes can also squirt and with that answers the age old question, it’s pee :(

I kept hoping you'd find some Diamondbacks. I know Texas is rich with D backs

Beautiful snakes , something how some really don’t bite. Enjoyed watching 👍👌

I appreciate you’re staying so current on the scientific names, Noah. As I’ve shared with you several times over the last several years, I hope you are collaborating with professional herpetologists (particularly those specializing in geographic variation, taxonomy and and ecology/natural history. It would be a pity and a crime if the professionals weren’t learning the wealth of knowledge you and your allies are doing for herpetology. Kudos to Will for having started his formal research into Terrapene c. Carolina and Chris Leone with the snakes and turtles of south Jersey and the Pine Barrens.

👍👍

Awesome Snakes! Explains we hy you aren’t seeing and rattlesnakes

I am heading down to the Okefenokee area this week end with my daughter to do some herping. Last time we were down found 4 indigos and plenty of other cool stuff. Cant wait!😎

Great video. I am in the Houston area and never see many of those snakes. Would like to see a video on the invasive non-native herps. Maybe you can fit one in sometime even though you are a serious herpetologist.

Indigos are so beautiful!!!!!! I didn't think you could touch them unless you were in that society for research. They kinda look like an UN mad not hooded cobra.

You should do a video herping in south east texas around houston

NKF herping I love your videos What is your favorite find of all time

Did anyone else see that little scorpion crawling on the tin at 1:28?

Happy New Year. You had a fantastic day catching Indigo’s, Milks, along with the other snake species you found. The first Indigo with all the red on its belly looked like a Mexican Red-tailed Indigo. The owner of Black Pearl Reptiles in California breeds the Mexican Red-tailed Indigo and he wants $ 2000 for yearlings he is selling.😱Awesome video.👍

Hi. That was an awesome video. Can you tell me how you can tell if a snake is ovulating please? I only know the breeding time of year with mine. I rescue reptiles here in the uk. 🐍💞🐍

Those indigo snakes get big. Very cool. Some of them remind me of cobras (minus the hood) for some reason. Maybe it's the size and the thick neck leading to the head.

That giant toad really looks like a big engorged tick

Worst part of herp south Texas, were the ticks. We dusted our pants and legs with Sulphur and STILL had to stand in front of a mirror and check for ticks.

Where iam close to river we have common eastern brown snakes and tiger snakes both venomous.If you head up north of southaustralia into desert country you might be lucky run into the inland tiapan they are a shy snake with a deadly bite

I have a female cane toad that size but I bought mine at a pet shop.

1st time viewing your channel! I live in Jax, FL we have king snakes that look like the milk snake you caught. Are they the same just different names? Thanks Again great video!

Do y’all ever do trips? My daughter loves it but I’m not 100% snake ready

I've always wondered what the large black beetles are under the tin with the sankes. They don't look like cockroaches. So what are they?

Is there anything we can do to help introduce these back to Alabama? I think we still have them in south Alabama but not in the central part? Are they rare because of the lack of tortoise's? I think they live in tortoise holes, but seems like they could find other places to live. I'd just love to have them around here again.

Where in south Texas close to Corpus Christi ?

Love that video Noah - question on the indigos don’t they have a really blue looking one in Texas too? Are they different?

Too bad you don't have a rehab place there for injured or disabled critters. The snake that was skinny and cross eyed I feel so sad for it. 😟

Is a thornscrub rat different from a great plains rat? Is it a new name or something?

Sweet video! Are Texas indigos protected?

“Just be careful not to step on them” Then he immediately goes on to jump right on top of the corrugated metal and, potentially, on some herps. Great job! At least he didn’t scream like a little girl then. He saved that pleasure for later, when they got their double find. Oh goodie.

Dang, you got money shotted big time! The price you pay right?

Man hope to see a Texas indigo some day! 7 would make my year!

"News printing"?

I wonder if they are interested in you at all, or just looking for a face to chomp??? Some actually seem to look at what / who you are!!

Idc how common Texas indigos may be they’re 10x cooler than milk snakes.

NSFW 13:02

Why are you all so loud and rough? It looks like the snakes are terrified. Be kind.

Sometimes I'm not quite clear on why every animal needs to be grabbed and handled .. on this and most other channels.

I enjoy your videos greatly however not this one. You guys are loud and aggressive with the snakes disturbing their peace screaming at them. Not a good look. Also when you find two snakes together leave them the hell alone.
