The black-phase Timber Rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus) is about as stunning as snakes get.

More of my new caging designs, some 6’ enclosures to excite me as we make ongoing changes at NERD.

New Enclosure Innovation has begun! Turning my ideas into reality and creating new systems that offer plenty of features to satisfy the creatures we soooo love!

Kevin works an egg out of an egg-bound water monitor by hand. Antibiotic ointment, then he waits for her to relax before he starts. It can take minutes, it can take hours.

This is one of the realities of breeding reptiles. It’s a lot like a breech baby in people: if nobody deals with it, it’ll kill her. Kevin’s been doing this for almost 40 years, and that’s how he learned to treat it right.

Blood pythons like just about all reptiles pick up on cameras. A lot of people don’t realize they can sense the infrared coming off them. Kevin’s holding one here and it reacts to the lens before anything else.

They’re already a cryptic animal. They live on the forest floor and ambush their food, so being out in the open with a bunch of new things in its face can stress it out and make it react. That’s something you have to keep in mind when you work with this species.

Our colubrid curator Adam explains “cupping.” When one of our baby mangrove snakes isn’t eating on its own yet, he sets it up overnight in a small cup with a live pinky and some moss, so it’s right next to its food. It doesn’t always work the first time, but after a few tries it almost always does. If it still doesn’t, we move on to assist-feeding.

Look at this ivory water monitor and that amazing brain as it turns on.

Kevin sets a beaded lizard on the floor near a monitor that’s been handled its whole life and never had much to worry about. That long tongue flick starts going as you see him start to assess the situation, deciphering whether or not it’s a threat. What a incredible little animal!

When you truly understand, fear turns into respect.
