Exo-Terra

Uh, the...

This is an Exoterra.

I think it's the largest Exoterra, um, setup they make.

Um, I think brand new, these used to be about 300 pounds, 400 pounds.

But you can, you can often find them on Facebook Marketplace, um, sometimes for, like, 50 pounds, something like that.

Oh, they're bitey, I don't want those.

And then as soon as sort of, I guess you can say the bioactive trend took off, everybody wanted to raise a carpet in like a 36 by 24 ExoTerra and have it stretched out in their living room before they bought a bigger cage.

Have you noticed, as a breeder, you've been to a lot of shows, like I see at Tinley, an increase in pet sales at all, as opposed to carpet python connoisseurs wanting to refine the look, versus somebody saying, I want an Erie and Jaya carpet, and I want it in this setup.

I want to buy it from you.

Mm-hmm

... that actually, like, pretty much lives in it, not on it, you know? Um, so I'm using the, um, Exo Terra River Sand, which is-

Mm

... a pre-washed, uh, sand.

...

these are baby babies that are in that enclosure.

So it is just a topsoil and then the Exo Terra, um, I forget what they call it, but it's the one that has the sand and the rocks all mixed into it.

Stone Desert.

[laughs]

Bro, that was my favorite Exo-Terra background-

Yeah

... with like the Aztec, Aztec shit on it.

I remember that.

Yeah.

So one thing, one thing we'll get into is how me, Sal and Alex all started with the same Exo-Terra fucking glass tank, which-

Yeah

I love Adizuki's.

I love ExoTerra enclosures.

There's always something missing for me.

I've been experimenting with a lot of fans, especially for water snakes.
