Happy Sunday everyone... I figure I would put out a longer vlog today to help you distract for 22 minutes. I cant wait until we can open again and have another celebration with you guys at the Reptarium! I miss it so much, but we will get through! All the animals are well and the crew is healthy! Even Jay is back to feeling 100%! Stay safe out there and I will do an Instagram live today about 3pm EST. Join me if you would like! @SnakeBytesTV Love you all! Brian
Hey Brian ! Thanks for the vlog, you literally make my day a hell lot better. And Yes ! I would love the cage to cage tour ! And i actually have a doubt. How exactly do you socialize an animal to be used to us ? I currently don't have any reptiles, but i plan on having them, so I wanted to know from someone who loves his animals so much. Thank you for making our days better ! All this from Portugal :)
Yoooo keep up the good work brian ur the best at what you do sorry to hear about forrest as everyone could see you was both close friend the plaque sound like a great idea big up brian rip forrest
Please do a cage by cage haha, if i lived near you or even in the same contury i would be at the zoo all the time. I have a Darwin carpet python of my own, i am in love with reptiles and to see the cage by cage would be truly amazing. You have such stunning animals.
I think it would be really interesting if you did a "day in the life of: . . ." sort of series where everyday you pick a different one of your animals and we all just go along with how they have their day.
I need this 3-4 hour long, individual animal, one on one w/ each animal vlog. The amount of knowledge you could pass from yourself to others would be immense. You have helped me rekindle my passion for reptiles. And also, gave my girlfriend and I another thing to do that surprisingly she is very into as well. Love watching the videos plan to eventually watch them all. But if you could drop that video of you going from habitat to habitat, breeding area to breeding area, bhb, the reptarium, everything that’d be great and everyone would love it.
I would love to see a longer, more detailed tour and see every cage...especially the alien gecko, I really want to see that little guy again. Love from Barbados ❤🇧🇧
I would love a cage by cage or even you spending a few more mins on the favs like you did here. Also would love to see how they interact in/with their cages... Give us a tour of the up coming stars of the bhb draft pick. What kind of gems do you have hiding down in that basement 👀 whose next up to join the repterium. Keep up the good work Brian. Lori did an amazing job on the gift shop.❤️
Hi Brian 😊 Thank you for inspiring us and supporting us through this tough time...your vlogs make each and every day feel brighter. So glad you guys are all well, take care and have a lovely day!
Thanks for the tour Brian. It helps us Aussies and other International fans to get an better idea of the set up at the Reptarium and to see some of the animals that are not featured on the Vlog as often. My hope and wish is that everyone stays safe and that they heed the advice of their respective health authorities. I am a health care worker (Ambulance) along with having my wildlife channel and so assisting and caring for ALL living things is my passion... Michael
Michael Thornley you, sir, are an everyday hero, and now more than ever, greatest admiration for you and your fellow colleagues. I hope you stay safe! Love from another fellow Aussie 💖
Interesting!! They get paid more when viewers don't skip the RU-vid ads? Good to know. I like to pay them back for the 15 minutes of entertainment (happy time) in my day.
Bella 😍 I'd be more than happy to watch a 30 min-1 hour vlog Brian! My kids would too. Give them a lesson on herpetology while they off school. Awesome! Stay safe ❤️
I watch your blog nightly after work. I still have to be out every day doing inhome care nursing. But watching you, Lori and your crew nightly helps me relax. Your positive attitude makes my day! Thank you
I’m the opposite, I’ll hold just about any snake before I would a tarantula. They are very interesting and I watch all kinds of videos on them but still have such a fear of spiders, not just tarantulas. I love watching your videos and being able to witness your dreams come true. You’re always so encouraging and uplifting! Just wanted to say thanks!
I’ve lost my job for at least 3 weeks because of COVID19. Your positivity really helped me take my mind off my stressors today. Thank you so much for continuing with the blogs even though you’re being affected as well. Once we recover we will be up to support you and say thanks 💜
Good morning brother. I’m loving the new addition. Salt and pepper look amazing al mochino is BEAUTIFUL!!! I could go on and on. Great job bro great job 🤙
Totally love to see cage by cage tour. I don't care about the time. Especially with everything going on right now. Helps keep my mind occupied during this time.
Thank you Brian, Lori and crew for sharing with us what you've all worked so hard for. Brian your dreams are amazing and I love anticipating the daily vlogs and seeing you bring those dreams to reality ~ totally inspiring!! I'm loving your Reptarium family and animals from a distance and look forward to visiting from Australia with our family to meet you all in person. Thank you for your cheer and sharing your good heart and warm thoughts. Our very best to you all. Cheers
Brian!! I was here on Saturday for the grand opening, and I loved it!!! I loved Chunky Monkey! I just wish My lady Helen had some merchandise..! I love her so much ❤️❤️❤️
I have to say. I am such a stickler for how captive animals are kept in terms of housing, handling, feeding etc. but I have found it extremely rare where I see one of your videos and say I would do it differently. I love to see the respect you have for them all. I love seeing you give space when animals want/need it and taking the time to learn their behaviors and personalities. We need more people to see how to respect these animals. Can’t wait to hopefully visit. Been a dream since you announced that you were building the first reptarium. Best of luck and thanks for keeping the videos going in a time of such chaos.
Full tour!! Yay! Brian I’m a nurse out there everyday in this funk and your videos help provide me with an outlet for stress relief! Any day I can see your collection is a good day 😁
Hope the virtual tours are going good, I'm cheap so I get my virtual tour from your vlogs. :P Also, you should do giveaways on your podcast, I've love to win that mural poster.
Love the longer video, i wouldn't mind watching 20 minute vlogs. And thank you brian for staying positive through these tough times, watching your vlogs everyday helps keep me more positive through all this, especially when my pregnant wife's job is still making her come to work even though they aren't an essential company. So thank you for staying positive!!
Thank you for the tour Brian. I’m forever great full. I can’t wait until I can make it there to see all the animals and everyone in person. One good thing to come out of this difficult time, in Italy I’m sure you are aware how polluted the water in the canals is as well as the water around Italy. Since the people have been in quarantine, the waters have cleared, the fish have returned and dolphins are now visiting the canals again too. Stay well. Love you all. Staysea🦋
Brian of course I’d love to see a longer 30 minute vlog! You keep my mind off of being in my house for so long with your vlogs! Can’t wait to watch your vlogs the rest of the week!! 🥺💕🥺💕
I just want to thank you for no matter what’s going on making videos to keep our minds off of the outside world seeing and talking about your animals and just everything helps me. My mom went missing and I ended up finding her at the Institute of psychiatry three hours from where we live. It’s been a night mare, but I love watching your videos and it’s really been helping me keep my mind clear when I start feeling overwhelmed with everything. The k you so much Brian I hope to be able to come see your place in person one day soon. Your friend and fan John S. From South Carolina
Nick Christ my husband works for the local cable company, and they have a waiver taped to their window. It’s stating when the wavier was issued and why they are allowed to drive during this time. We are from Louisville, Ky.
Devin McNulty he has to be able to care for his animals. If he can’t get to them they don’t eat and they have to eat. I would hope we haven’t become so cruel as to allow animals that depend on us to survive to suffer.
1:20 *idk why when he say it's scary times it gives me hope* *to see the world panicking while you have a amazing soul still remaining calm an nonchalant is cool.* 😎 *I'm still tryna figure out why everyone in chaos though.* *If you had plans before this chaos you can't let a lil virus that's on the bac of a lysol can scare ya* 🤔😋😁😂 *If it's our time, then it's just our time* ☺🙃😉
Brian, your love and passion for animals is inspirational. You’re one of many of my idols and people I look up to. You encourage me to take care of all my animals everyday (21 snakes, 2 hamsters, 2 cats. I love them all) and get out of bed and go to work. I wish you and your family nothing but positivity and safety in these troubling times. After all this is done and over with I can’t wait to come see you guys and the animals again
Me: full tour cage by cage!!!!! (Tile of the video) First 3 minutes: "obviously we can't go cage by cage because there is to many animals" Click bait??
I only recently stumbled into your channel. I am SO GLAD I did. Your attitude is so uplifting and exciting. It definitely makes a difference given the state of the country right now. Thank you for making my past week a much better one!
I would love a cage by cage tour!! I absolutely love your attitude and appreciate it so much right now. You are like a breath of fresh air right now!! I want to meet you and see the Reptarium so badly!!
I thank you so much for keeping my mornings normal. I catch you everyday. I look forward to that boost in positivity. You’re very important to me and I’m sure many others. Keep positive! I wish you, your family and your extended family good health and happiness.
Brian, I don't respond to videos much. But i wanted to thank you for your videos. I've been a gardener/landscaper most of my life (love the outdoors) and thought I knew flowers and plants till I visited Hawaii for the first time. Flowers and colors I've never seen or imagined before. And you have done the same thing with snakes and reptiles. We had two Black Snakes that lived in our backyard for years when I was a kid. So I've always been used to snakes, never handled them but used to them. And while living in Arizona and visiting New Mexico several times, I've gotten used to lizards. I was hiking into the Grand Canyon years ago and had been told to watch for rattlers. As I passed a large dried bush, it shook. I froze, ...waited a couple minutes and looked over. A large lizard was on the middle of the bush,... I swear he was smiling at me saying,...GOT YA!!! But the reptiles that you show, the colors, the patterns, the diversity is amazing. Makes me look at the world in a whole different way like the flowers in Hawaii. I hope one day to come see you in person, I'm in Indiana so not that far away. I had planned on leaving for a vacation to Alaska tomorrow (Monday) but Corona has put that on hold for the time being. So, until later, keep doing what you're doing and being an encourager in scary times. You may not get many replies but encouragement is in short supply right now. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for being so caring & compassionate when you're talking about this whole thing passing - I'm with you it will pass in time, in the meantime try to be patient & appreciate what you do have (remember all those days stuck at work wishing for time off?). Also I just wanted to say that I personally would love an actual cage by cage tour as it would be my dream to visit the Reptarium but I'm from the UK & unable to fly due to health reasons, so for me personally it would be amazing! Thanks for all you do and I wish you and your family all the best during these trying times x
You, Lori and the team are doing a great job Brian. Keep up the great work during these very difficult times. You are a breath of fresh air and the animals are lovely. You take so good care of them it really shines through. You, your family, the team and of course all of the animals take care. We will get through. Sending you are best wishes all the way from the U.K.
yes a cage by cage would be awesome. my sons 9&11 daughter 5 and my girlfriend,myself and her son 4 watch everyday. we also watch your blogs at bedtime its part of educational tv shows.
Thank you so much Brian for keeping up with the vlog every day. Especially right now. I really like your idea for an in depth Reptarium tour. One for each side. Even though many of us watch every day, because of the way the vlog is edited we don’t really know the exact layout of the place and where each animal is located. For instance, for over a year I thought Bella was right up front on the right side, but turns out she’s in the back! LOL Anyway, rambling, but I think the tour would be great!
I would love to see a cage by cage episode! I enjoy watching you and Lori all the time! I'm one who is afraid of snakes, lizards, and spiders. As I've been watching you guys I feel like I would be able to hold or at least stand by one without freaking out! Lol! I do enjoy every episode I've watched so far. You guys are so very inspiring to watch! Keep up all the great work!
I love seeing you everyday. A cage by cage tour would be great. In this bad time it is a time for family and taking care of things that we have not had time for.
You seem like genuinely such a kind and caring person and I really appreciate and look forward to your videos that are always filled with positivity. Thank you for being you and spreading your positive energy
I'm tossing in my vote for a cage by cage full video! Even if it takes hours! I'd luv ever second of seeing the animals. I really enjoy seeing how excited you are about them. It shows! 👌👌👌
Brain my daughter and i watch you the second we wake up. We are in Denver, and she CRIED ALL DAY when we couldn't make it to the opening. So I would truly like to surprise her with a one on one!!! PLEASE!?!?!?!
Yes! I vote FULL TOUR! Love that idea, and you guys! We need the entertainment in these trying times and you guys are so peaceful and educational to watch
Your reptarium is so beautiful man, love to see people so passionate about animals and so positive. And would love to see an entire video where you go trough all the enclosures :)
I wold love to see a cage by cage tour because I haven’t watched you for quite some time now and everything has changed sooooo much I can’t believe it.
Thank u for sharing your life with us each day. I bet it takes alot out of u but u add so much love and light to this world! Please keep it up and ignore the haters because u can never please everybody and some folks just enjoy spreading their misery.💗
Love it Brian! Can’t wait for things to clear up so we can come visit. My 4 year old niece watched this video with me and she was so excited to see the red ear sliders. She has her own. Keep up the great work. And take care.
Loved this video more than normal! I too am trying to see the positives in this situation and remain optimistic. Its great to hear that message from someone!
I would actually love to see a cage by cage video. I have been watching your videos for a year or two now an just fell in love with the animals. I have no way to come right now an no one to come with me (my mom is terrified of snakes) so your tour videos make me super happy. Stay safe an thank you for your videos.
Yes Brian!!! I know I for one would like a cage by cage tour. I love seeing your beautiful animals. They help me to realize what I want in the future as far as keeping animals and they really just inspire me.
I would love a full cage by cage! Especially since here in Ohio we have a stay at home order that started today. I also want to say Brian your blog is the reason I was able to get over my fear of snakes! Can’t wait to eventually come visit!
I had been planning a trip to see you guys for the longest and due to the outbreak in San Antonio ive been forced to stay. Love all the work you do as well as each positive message. LETS MAKE TODAY AWESOME
Thank you so much for the tour and your uplifting attitude. You bring a little bit of sunshine and happiness with each of your VLOGS, so thank you so much. I would love to see a longer tour (minus the spiders I have severe arachnophobia 😂). The snakes and lizards are beautiful and very interesting. Please keep your VLOGs coming, with the trying times we are all dealing with right now it is important that we spread a little joy if we can and you certainly do that, so keep it up!
