hey what's going on everyone thanks for being patreon supporters we're going to have a little fun today we're going to feed some of the animals let's go in and see our Croc monitors now this female get God very excited she'll probably be the first one to come over here oh my God look at her go she just gets super aggro that was oh gosh I'm wearing sandals as always I pick the proper attire hey buddy oh W where's she going that's my where is she going she's got something in her mouth but let's just make sure she's let's watch him too all right come on buddy there you go what are you doing you watch her I'm watching her she's got her mouth full but I am wearing sandals so not exact

ly the best yeah we got to be careful around that she's so lean I'm going to fatten her up a little bit oh boy so how much do you think she weighs right now I have no idea she's probably only a few pounds they are so funny they are all right let's get moving they're just going to be doing their own thing I'm just like let me use the new camera to get good shots okay they just look so good he's going to drop it hopefully he won't I wonder why she went down to the ground like that yeah I don't know maybe to get away from the male yeah maybe thinking the male was going to get some of the food all right all

right cool Canon says time is up is up yeah we got other lizards that want our attention oops all right get this all sealed up yeah man we've been doing good we've been appreciating all the support here on patreon wanted to just do a video where it's just for you guys and we're doing that right now let's go see Slinky I got some interesting information about Slinky I've often wondered exactly how old is the old guy and uh Cindy how did some math she found a video from8 years ago and how small Slinky was much smaller and what happened was she did the back

so 8 years ago he was 3 and 1/2 years old so 3 and 1/2 plus 8 he's 11 and 1/2 years old can you believe that Slinky is 11 and a half so I hate to kind of think about the fact that he's getting up in there in age because these guys only live about 15 years really but here he is yeah that's pretty stand that's pretty standard I believe that is that specific to Asian water monitors or it's just their Lifan yeah and in captivity it's longer so 15 years is definitely going to be a very old creature sorry buddy no I don't have anything I no it's just the

to he came quick he was hungry he is hungry you are so hungry boy all right since you're a good boy since you're a good slinky man come over here come on you fat so oh he got it get out now we got to make sure we give some other animals this food look at him he doesn't even bother hit me with the tail like this normally he's happy that's it Slinky we got to give Lulu her food now oh yeah let's go careful he's just super good boy he stopped all right here I'll get him over here all right he was very motivated yeah he was motivated but he stopped yeah he's good boy

he got a little excited but at least I two is going to be enough for at least I didn't jump back that was a step good you did really good very proud of you all right come on so uh things are going well here we got a lot going on of course since this is a patreon video I can show you guys some of the behind the scenes stuff um that will make its way onto the main channel here soon but um yeah man we got the other cage from Custom cages and it's still not fully built however I have been making serious problem progess on it what we're going to do now is get in here with Lulu watch LuLu she's going to come down come on that one eye

come on you got to come down you got to jump off she's got to unhook herself here she comes this girl's fast wow she just ripped she just got there so there's Lulu that's quite the lady the other cool thing is this plant's been growing nicely yeah look at it's doing good everything in here looks great yeah I'm stoked remember when we put this together it was just the center post this looks great you were here for this build yeah not the cage because that was with custom cages but we put all of this in here awesome wow yeah you had already had a lot of it done you had the foundation and the cage wood we just

decorated the inside I'm happy about that wood see you later well then that will bring us to the new cage because it's for our next animals that are going to be fed here let me just lock this back out get all the latches latched there you go kiddo well let me show you what I've been up to so of course this is going to be documented in another video but since we are Pals I'm showing you now get the VIP access that's right so check it out here's the base for the new blackthroat monitor outdoor habitat we're starting to play some rock here uh I'm messing about getting rocks

in here we got our Center Post these guys don't really climb too high I want to you know be able to have their tunnel that's going to be coming out of our uh indoor area it's going to come out there's all the panels those are going to get erected on this form that my father-in-law and I uh made much appreciated I put all this gravel in here over here we've got dirt uh covered by gravel so this plant can grow um they'll be able to dig if they're going to lay eggs down the road there is a place that how deep does it go before it's something they can't dig through

oh well there's cement on the bottom of it and then there's wire in the middle so they can not dig out so this thing's been cemented in the ground that thing's good uh again Boulders of various kinds pretty happy and it's right on the back of uh buttercup's old cage and their new one and we're going to go in and see them right now but I just want to show you guys this I'm going to stack a couple more rocks later here I'm having fun with this machine guys I'm just yeah man I'm going crazy with literally every time I come over you're playing with it oh

yeah it's such a good tool I really would love to be able to afford a tractor here with a backhoe and a front end loader that would be the ultimate uh Camp Cannon utility vehicle I can tell you that okay so we got one of the black throats relaxing we're going to get him set up with a little meal so let's do it oh he's right there yeah he's right here these guys will spring into action really quickly oh yeah I like making a move up okay oh he's always going for the long side too my goodness and the other one is probably up top somewhere here get the head here

here get the head there you go these guys are growing nicely the other one right so much better so it's going to be cool the door they'll go through oh yeah we'll be right is going to be right down here at the base of the shelf so it'll be like a one foot and 1 and 12T radius wide um opening right over right like a cat door where is she watch this here we go is anyone coming oh there's a sign come on oh there's a big boy oh my God got him look at that yes so all the monitors are happy and Ry ate earlier so don't worry about Ry so uh he likes this little cozy spot he does like that area huh bet he's back here all the time

y look at how good it is to be able to see them in such a wide open spot we could never get video of them like No And they're just going to get bigger man that's what's so cool about they're going to get huge um these guys will be close to 8 feet so that's definitely an impressive lizard right so much happening yeah it looks so beautiful we're going to go ahead oh don't whip me don't don't you do it I want to peel that skin off it's driving me nuts there we go just get that off there nice help with the shed or yeah helping with the shed maybe see this is great we could never get this close up before with the camera

like look at how close I am I'm right here and he's totally occupied with that food yeah that's awesome and the one right next to your shoulder right next to my head yeah I'd say they're happy in here and uh they're only going to be happier next week when that enclosure is going to be done soon natural sunlight oh yeah natural sunlight will be so cool so they'll have indoor outdoor uh lodging which I think is cool um I only like doing the best things for my animals genuinely I love it when we like this even just moving them in here was such an upgrade was so cool because it was such a small little area before they are messy eat look at this guy just can't figure out

the head he just needs to start the head they always get look he's such a nin poop wild it's going to this is going to be a while for these guys eat these Quail oh there goes the Slappy slaps look at how he flattens out I maybe if I do this I can desensitize him a little bit if I touch him o that was close he almost nailed me almost is the key word there he doesn't like he about to slap he doesn't like being touched so that's pretty cool well he also has food in his mouth so maybe that's part of it yeah but yeah there'll be a cat door right there it'll go out to that black tunnel

that's going to be suspended off the ground it's going to connect to the cage there'll be a ladder going down some kind of you know I don't know Branch or something like that we'll get that going to the ground there'll be some more Ledges and rocks and things that they can hide on or climb on and I think it'll be an amazing habitat for these guys um we still have so much material left that I can do things with so um I'm excited man overall everything that's been happening here at the camp is because of you guys everyone on patreon that goes above and beyond just

you enable me to continue to do everything myself Matt and Tom uh we really appreciate everything you guys are doing I'm heading to Texas here in a couple of weeks I'm going to drive out there and we're going to visit a couple of really cool spots that I've never been to that I think you guys are going to be so stoked to see we're going to get out there and see more people like myself because that's what this channel is all about connecting people that love these animals and learning from the people that might do it better than me to be perfectly honest I can't
