For the handful of people that said this was faked. Ask anyone that worked at the Zoo. I was freaking out and he was out all night!! Silly that I would allow him to run around on purpose.. The security footage was proof he got out! We have cameras throughout the entire place and even outside in the parking lots. I would never allow an animal to potentially get lost just for views.. NEVER!! Thanks for those that believed it was real.. Because it WAS!! Love you guys! Brian
I would never ever think you would do that I know how much you care about your animals I'm really sorry people are saying that I know that they take every single thing that you do and just spew hatred towards you and I'm sorry for that that must be very difficult and I know that you were having a hard time with it before so I'm really sorry people are saying that
I once lost a ball python in my apartment for 2 months, she escaped outta her cage and went into brumation inside of my couch (in a gap in the fabric that I couldn’t see or reach into) I looked for her everywhere, every day, and nothing. Shocked the crap outta me in spring when she randomly poked her head out next to me on the couch one day.
The security footage of potato making a run for it literally made me spit my drink 😂😂😂😂😂 I’m sure it was terrifying losing him for awhile but god damn that was hilarious
Soo glad Potato is okay! What a mischievous little guy. It makes my day to see the Reptarium full of people so excited to hold/touch all the animals! Especially seeing all the little kids. It warms my heart that this is going so well for you Brian!! You deserve it. Thank you for your positive energy and have a great day.
I can only imagine how much pride he’s got opening the front doors to all his cherished animals with crowds of people excited to see them all. And to start new people in the pet reptile community. A+ human being can’t wait to make the drive to the reptarium some day
It’s just the first clip of the skink running across the floor and Brian yelling about a potato that got me! I was on the train and blurted out laughing and people just looked over at me.
It's ok that it was late, Brian. There is always bound to be an issue at some time or other for anyone working with uploads. Poor Potato. He was probably so confused. I am glad that he's back home and safe. You had quite the day and I'm happy that it all came out well. Take care and have fun!
Lmao, Potato seems to have been more excited than scared. Looked to have been enjoying the freedom until the noisy humans showed up and started banging around!
@@addicted2anime26 Hmm. Rewatching it and taking a better look at Potato instead of the humans shows that you are probably correct in the matter. He does seem to be enjoying investigating the Reptarium. Wait, he didn't even have to pay a customer fee looking around like that. What a cheat :D
Hey Brian! I'm sooo glad you guys found Potato, it's always terrifying when one of the animals is lost, even if it's still in the building! I watched this on my lunch break, I'm a vet tech so when I DO get a lunch I like to watch your videos then if I wasn't able to catch it in the morning. I'm planning a trip to the reptarium soon (hopefully) and I can't wait to see all of the animals! I hope your days is going well! Chelsey
I honestly think what you are doing is amazing. Normally at most Zoo's animal experiences cost additional money (normally not cheap either) on top of your entry fee and not only that your educating people and teaching them to respect these kinds of animals! Awesome job ! Your work ethic is inspirational
Potato!! Naughty boy! The CCTV footage is hilarious. And, the way Potato's tongue was wagging when you got him. It's amazing people line up to get in!!! It's going so amazing Brian!
RJ is so tame! Impressed as someone that lives in Florida and works in a farm I come across baby gators all the time in the middle of the farm and I’ll summon my inner Steve Irwin and catch them but they’re not having it!
Great that potato was found so quick. I had a male garter on the loose for 5 days before I found him. What a relief it was! Glad the reptarium is doing so well, and I wish it continued success.
Hey brian just wanted to let you know when i found your channel i was in a dark place and your videos helped me through it. Im from CT. And hope to visit you soon thanks keep up the awsome work!
Good Morning Brian, I can't believe that Potato escaped but... 1)I'm glad you got him back, and 2) that footage tho 😂 and 3) only the haters will say it's fake, but anyone who's been watching your vlogs, even for a little while, will know how much you care about your animals.( I know I do). Also Lori looks really good with her hair down. 👌 and I love how enthusiastic and friendly you are with people and their kids!!! Have an AWESOME day!!!
I love to see how many people, kids especially, that are interested in reptiles. I think your channel has absolutely helped people to see how amazing these animals really are.
One day... I'll get to shake Brian's hand, and I will hold and maybe buy some animals for sale only at your place :).... but it'll probably be 7 or 10 more years :( I'm still 13 and I live in the philipines
Aww so glad you found Potato! What a Lil sweetie pie! He just wanted to explore the place a little more! Maybe he can be the new tour guide! lol. I love seeing all the animals every day! And cookies and cream is looking great! RJ is so well behaved also! He looks so comfortable around people! Love this video!
Another great vlog Brian!!! Potatoe just wanted to get a personal tour of his zoo neighbors that's all 😂 just remember to drown out any haters saying stuff about that! You're the best!
I drove 1-1/2 hr still in uniform to attend the meetup at Prehistoric Pets in Fountain Valley CA back a few months ago. I absolutely love your passion & enthusiasm for your pets. And I especially love Lori for being an awesome trooper for someone who ("don't have the snake genes") for holding up the shop thoroughly & admire her physique (muscles ;-) ) . Should anybody get out of hand, Lori's got it!
This is a good person .. who would meet all the people with a warm handshake .. happy to see people treating people with respect.. not just for money !!!!
I am so glad you found Potato! I would hate for any of your animals to get lost and potentially be hurt. Congrats on another awesome weekend. My daughter and I love watching your channel and seeing all your animals. She has even started making hissing sounds like a snake. Super adorable. She's two.
Watching the security-vid of Potato - was like 'Home Alone'! 😆 My granddaughter's crestie got loose at my house, and she cried going home - I turned the A/C on to meat-cooler temps and put a bell-lamp over his open cage... 2-days later I found him in there. His home was the only warm place in the house! They sure aren't dumb! 😆 He might have gone in overnight the previous day, but I went to bed and didn't see. My dog actually alerted me to look in the cage. She was so happy when I sent her a pic of him back on his branch! I like what you're doing with the Reptarium! People need to see, touch, smell, 3-D experience these critters - to really fall in love! ❤️
Love your videos. I am a 14 year old and I want to grow up and have a job like that. I just got done with my first clutch of the year and I got some banana pinstripes and banana bees👍
I'm so glad you guys got potato back, as worried as I was for his safety I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw his little tater tot legs trying to make a break for it!
Hi Brian! I love your work and the energy that you project in your videos. Its great that Potato is safe. I have a question about petting the reptiles. We are often warned that humans can contract diseases from handling animals. Aren't you worried that your reptilian friends may get catch an infection from one your guests?
That was really nice Brian, letting people pet RJ. He's one of those animals most people know of, from watching tv and movies. Now they know he's not that horrible, mean creature they portray. Pat
Lol as someone who has owned a blue tongue. This is not a huge surprise mine loved going on little adventures and scaring the hell out of us until we got use to it and worked out he would get out to play with our dog at night. He was always safe as he couldn't get out of our house just out of his bedtime pen. He was aloud to run around the house all day.
Brian, at the beginning of the year I had to write an essay on grit and talk about someone I think is gritty. In the end, I chose to write about you and your passion for animals. You inspire me and I’m just like you, I never stop wanting more and more animals! Currently, my mom won’t allow me to have a snake in the house.
Good morning Brian Hope your are having an amazing day. And I just read the title. Hope u find ur lizard. Also u always make my day it's just so crazy to so someone so Happy all the time it puts me I a great mood for the long days.
Hey Brian, just wanted to say how happy it makes me seeing people like you and Coyote Peterson showing how cool and amazing all these reptiles and animals are for people, especially kids and people who were generally unsure about them. I grew up herping and raising a lot of reptiles among other things, so I always came across people who thought turtles were gross or snakes were scary. I hope we can put these stigmas to bed soon, cuz these animals truly are special.
I hope I can come one day! I watch your videos everyday! And every night! I love you and your reptiles. I used to like reptiles but now I LOVE them ever since I watched your videos. I also watch Noah’s videos too sometimes but mostly I watch you. I love you watch you,Noah,Eric,and chewy. My TOP favorites have to be RJ, Bella, and Daisy! But I love them all. Your my favorite RU-vidr EVER!!!!!!!👏🏻❤️❤️😂🤗
Hello Brian, I could tell by your face you didn't let Potato out on purpose. That little stinker! I can imagine all the bad things going through your head that he could have gotten into. Then you showed those clips of him running around looked cute. Showing off to all the other critters. Bad Potato! Does this make him a rotten Potato 😉😍 God bless you and yours, Lin
My phone does that too it is actually not fake. If you forgot you can turn off your phone to the lock screen while you are on a call. My phone does that it’s not fake
Potato! Can't believe him 😂😂😍 Hope he had fun on his freedom run, because I'm sure it won't happen again 😂😂😂😂😂 And the zoo looks great! I can't wait to see it someday! 💕
I'm glad you found potato, hopefully this will be the last time any reptiles bust out for a walk at the reptarium 😄 watching the surveillance video was fun, since we already knew he was safe. I imagined the Scooby Doo Chase music in the background
Holly Crap! I'm glad you found Potato! That would've been so sad. Lol I was sure you would tape RJ's mouth, can't believe he was just chill, so cool. The reptarium keeps looking better and better. 👍
Omg I’m early ahhh I’m third ahh Edit: OMFG my comment was like by Brian ahhhh I’m gonna die this is the third time this week omfg lol WOW I was noticed
I'm glad Potato was found! I really appreciated the security footage as well, it's always hilarious to see what animals are up to when people aren't around.
I don't think you let him out on purpose, but it's pretty obvious that phone call was fake, and you reaction to the open cage was weird, too. Maybe he just faked him seeing it and the call for the storyline of the vlog.
Of course I saw his comment! And I believe him, that he didn't let Potato out on purpose, but you have to agree, that his reaction to the open cage was pretty weird and the phone call is obviously fake, his screen is showing while calling..
That's exactly what I thought. I agree 100 percent! How he was walking and just"happen" to look down at that exact cage to see it was open. I think he did break out but by the time he started filming they knew exactly where he was. Gotta make good vids,get those views.
Heather you dumbasses. You can go to your home screen while your calling. And he studdered like lorie tried to speak but he did. Congrats! You are idiots
Its awesome how you did all this yourself and youre being so interactive with the customers, its really amazing. I like in nebraska and im hoping to get down to see the reptarium eventually!
Why did you fake the phone call? I really love the animal content, but it is so obvious that you act a lot of times, wich gives the video a really unnatural feeling. Just show us your live, it is interesting enough.
Lol this tool Alexander Rumbolt is seriously butthurt that people think the call was fake. It was super fake! Nothing for you to get your panties in a wrinkle over.
honestly wouldn't even comprehend handling snakes before I started watching you're videos , but after educating and learning the behaviour etc makes it much easier to want to start
I have a couple of blue tongues in my yard. They LOVE strawberries and snails and can move like greased lightning when they want to. The largest is about 20-24" and I bet hes pretty old. Great lizards, really chill for the most part.
