I wouldn’t cement the iguana cage, especially if you’re gonna put tortoises in there. Plant some nice grass that they all can eat. The waste will be dealt with naturally. The iguanas will definitely breed also and will want to dig a hole for their eggs. Tortoises will also if you have a pair. You could always have a nest box or nesting area, but it will be much more natural with a grass bottom. I think redfoot tortoises would probably be best in my expert opinion. Sulcatas will dig to Canada. 😆 You’ll obviously have to do something so they can’t dig their way out if you don’t cement the bottom. They don’t dig like the tortoise excavator Sulcatas, but iguanas and redfoot tortoises do dig some. Keep predators out also. 👍

The skinny pigs need proper care. That is way to much pellets (only need a cup a day or less each) and they should have 24/7 fresh Timothy hay available to them as they need it to keep their guts running. Do not keep them on bars it will cause bumble foot. Feed a cup of veggies per pig everyday, Romain lettuce, carrots, peppers, parsley. Skinny pigs and Guinea pigs need vitamin c supplements usually in their water since they can not produce their own vitamin c. Idk if you know this stuff already but I thought I’d share in case! All the love to you! ❤

You and RJ are making stunning Christmas magic together all around the farmhouse 🎄 You two are truly blessed 💙

Omg, Mikey those parrots are so cute! The male Pheasant will change to a beautiful color as it gets older. I always see wild beautiful colorful Pheasants here in MN. I love your beautiful farm!

The lanterns look much better! Be careful poinsettias are poisonous to animals. Everything is decorated so beautifully, RJ does such a great job! Seems like you’re going to need to put the decals up in the aviary again lol. Love how much care you take for your animals Mikey!

Yesterday the Vivarium today a vlog.. That's what I call a good weekend!

RJ works magic with the house👏👏👏

Wonderful video all around but I truly like how the pretty balls in the trees got rearranged. That was a much needed change, and now it looks fabulous!.

Pheasants and "skinny" pigs along with an epic vivarium! The Mabuhay Menagerie continues to grow!!!

OMG you got golden pheasants yay i remember commenting about how you should get one and you got some now!!!!! i look forward to see them grow in the vlogs ❤❤ also yes from my experience they can be kept with other birds because i had mine living in my aviary with a bantam rooster and 5 european starlings and they got along just fine 😊and they can fly fairly well but not as long distance 👍

yay, another vlog! the guinea pigs are so cute! i hope the allergy isnt too bad 😢 its nice to see RJ having fun decorating 😊 good call on switching around the lanterns too!

Mikey your Farmville is becoming bigger. With your vlogging mainly done in your farm house, you can show case them as well. You are so funny with your surprise action! 😂😂😂😂

I laughed seeing the random snow man!! But that's so awesome of RJ to even think of it. My suggestion is to put the snowman right beside the white Christmas tree near the pool. Just a thought. Love your capiz lights!! They are perfect!!!

Woww! You and RJ have done so much the past week. Everything is looking great with the farm house. May you have a good night's sleep Mikey.

Those capiz lights look sooo much better in the trees! The front yard looks so pretty and sparkly! Beautiful pheasants. Getting to be a Noah’s ark, aren’t you? 😂😁 🎄 Happy Christmas to you guys, your critters and crawlers, swimmers (did that monitor lizard stay?)- and all your support crew. Thanks for being such a wholesome and positive person. ❤

Your outside trees can have the smaller lights wrap around the trunks and branches. They will look festive but the electricity costs will be horrendous also. Love you Mikey and RJ's artistic ideas. God bless and take care always.❤❤❤

The string of lights on the tree is looking perfect 👌 😍

Those purple flower, it's called "morning glory", they are invasive. They should be planted separately, otherwise they will entwine to other plants. Maybe you can transfer them to the pets area. I am sure you are very busy with your "AntsCanada" which you really did a great job on it!

Congrats on the newest family members and I love the fact that you go into adopting animals with your eyes wide open. Truly only wanting what is best for the animals and your menagerie of said animals that you rescue or adopt. I’m guessing you may just be wishing you and RJ had purchased that empty lot next to the animal enclosures! But also guessing you already have a lot on your plate with “Mabuhay Farmhouse”! Love love LOVE the new way you guys hung the outdoor lanterns in the trees. They truly look a million percent better than just being hung uniformly down the branches. I think RJ has most definitely been enjoying decorating for the Holiday season! My only question is have you had to buy a barn or a commercial sized storage unit to store it all in afterwards? 😂😂 RJ definitely has amazing flair for decorating! Seriously, if he had time to do it his tablescapes would be true masterpieces! In case you don’t have time to post before Christmas I hope you both have a beautiful and relaxing holiday! Sending you both lots of love and positive vibes from across the globe in the US State of Montana. ✨💖✨

You should make the iguana enclosure like a real set up like you have done for your ants, don’t concrete the bottom, put branches/basking places/ pond and plants that will thrive in there to make it more natural

One trick to get rid of that "Horse poop dry hay decor. " Soak it in a gallon of white vinegar ,salt and baking soda for a day and air or sun dry and air it on an open space. The decor will be clean and disinfected at the same time..add water in 50/50 proportion. Good luck.Merry Christmas to you both.!!!

The plant you called holly, it’s a christmas cactus. Love, love all the changes!

I love the snowman! He stands out so much among all of the greenery😂

Finally got my Vlog fix. Already saw the Vivarium video, loved it. Reignited my love for the AntsCanada channel.

Way to go RJ about the lights. Fantastic. Welldone RJ

Great decor! Mikey, poinsettias are toxic to dogs. Please place the pots in an elevated area.

Great job, RJ! ❤ Yiu did an amazing job decorating your entire house.

We have those pheasants walking freely in the Canterbury area of New Zealand. They can be seen on the roadside and fields. Beautiful birds.

I hope Rj makes his own vlog showing his artsy creations❤❤❤

Greetings from Portland Oregon!! My family got 2 Guinea pigs & they are just the sweetest pets. We ♥️ to take them out of their cage & pet them. Their cage needs a lot of Timothy Hay to eat & their whole cage needs to have hay all over for them to walk around. Besides hay, we feed them carrots, celery with leaves, kale,,,those are their favorites. Happy Holidays to you & whole big family🪅👑🌁⭐️🎄

You should wrap your large tree trunks they would be so beautiful.

😂😂😂😂😂 the tweet2 from Canary cracked me up!! It’s like a meme

Wow the lights look great were they are. The out side Xmas tree is lovely may be a now would look nite as a free topper. TO is very talented when decorates. May be you could put a sliding roof on top of our door bird cage with a handle to wind it open and close it. The golden phesents look gorgeous. Do you have to quarantine the birds before mixing them . Love the nativity on the lawn. I love palm trees. I have a palm tree tattoo. Will you cover the dark in out side avery so the birds don't got to it. Yes the lights look great the out side looks so photogenic.Love from uk . I always look forward to seeing ur vidios. Xx

The Ants Canada video was freaking amazing!! You did such a good job!!!

I have over 20 cats. Mostly feral ! They are so useful! Finally got them all fixed, I have no squirrels, no mice or rats. I haven't seen a snake in years! We used to have copperhead and water moccasins, not now! All my bird feeders I position close to my dog areas so they can chase away the cats and keep my wild birds safe while eating! I am 71 and have to keep things simple and self sustaining! Lol no energy or strength and no help! I love your place and what you and RJ do! Does my heart good to see all your efforts! Love always from North Carolina! Oh I have gold finches too! Every spring! All wild! I have blue Jay's and red headed wood peckers, all year residents! Once in a while we have blue heron and snowy egrets. They go fishing in our pond! Of course there are turtles too!

The plain lights are pretty and classy looking! But nothings says Christmas like multi colored lights! Lol

the tree lamp looks perfect!

Hello to Mikey & R.j.! Good-morning! How are you doing guys? Great job R.j.! What a beautiful decoration Christmas and can’t wait to finished the barnyards so far. That’s was a cute pigs!

Love love the staggered lights!!

lmao a snowman RJ is going full out lol We gotta reign him in before the 10 feet inflatable Santa Claus shows up next vid

I guess this has been a busy week decorating and landscaping! Loved the ant video by the way!

The tree lights are WAY better looking. Thank you for adjusting. It’s not an eye sore anymore.

The decorations that smell might benefit from spraying them with cinnamon oil and then let it add a nice fragrance to your home

Happy 11th Anniversary to both of you, Mikey and RJ… cheers to many fruitful years together…

Hi Mikey and RJ, nice to see both of you again.your terrarium looks gorgeous and huge.the lights capiz on the acacia tree where beautiful and your backyard so cool.I love RJ's creativity his very hands on in his craft the whole Mabuhay farm house is gorgeous and calming to see.Thanks God that you're back.ICARE🙏🍎❤️

Beautiful ! God bless you both! ❤

so Beautiful inside and the front LAWN. RJ really good JOB and good choices 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Really enjoyed your vlog today Mikey, missed you! So many updates! That Vivarium though.... ah ma zing!! Great job! 👍🏻👏🏻Now you get some sleep now 😀👋🏼❤️

Keep the water like that. That's just tanning. Actually has more health benefits for the water. Or if it's too dark, just do 1 water change or 50% change.

Mikey! You're back! I've missed your vlogs for sure. 1st thing in thr morning I always check to see if u posted. Happy holidays to you Mikey and ALL you wonderful friends and family!!!!

i mossed the boquet on top of the wedding xmas tree..or an angel or star 🥰🥰🥰🥰

The farm house and your pets are just gourgeous ♥

Yeah, the lights on the tree looks much better. ❤

I’m watching your video right now… Omigoodness!… that tank is gorgeous!! Okay, back to watching… ❤️

With all the Holiday decor you both are doing, the parties that folllow must be equally extra-AMAZING too, right? 🎄🎄 Can't wait!!

I just want to commend RJ, how amazing person he is. You are both amazing. Love you both

Everything looks amazing. LOVE LOVE LOVE the lanterns!!!!

Mikey & RJ... I hope you are also getting some rest too! Between your recent travels and the big celebration & vivarium building project.... holiday decorations... the side lot projects... it's a lot more than people might think. We don't want any burnout! Okay? No more "mothering" from across the pond. You two shepherds go enjoy your flocks!

Im really excited for you guys getting your birds arranged. I think you should add one more christmas decoration...have the Grinch pulling a string of lights down into a red toy bag...that would be very cool.

I love the pheasants! I would name them Abelarde and Heloise (lovers, famous for their letters to each other) because they look so serious, but that may be just because they need to settle in. Thank you for working so hard on the Ants Canada vivarium and vlog - both are wonderful!!

Thanks for another dose of positivity. The lantern lights do look nice spread out. I’m sorry, but i laughed every time you walked by the sticks that reeked of horse poop. I grew up with horses and your description brought back vivid memories💩😂😂

35:09 The conures are always so hilarious. Like curious little winged monkeys.

I can't wait to see the new aviary!

Enjoyed seeing all the amazing changes in your farmhouse.

What to grow? Since you have good climate in Alfonso, try zucchini, salad greens, tomatoes etc, so you can make salads everyday! Talbos ng camote is a good idea as well! Also, coconut trees! Just suggesting😃

Wow a nice new birds and beautiful pig.your place will be cavite Zoo in the future..❤❤❤❤

The lanterns look beautiful! I just love your channel

Can’t wait to see all the animals in your farm when it’s done.❤️

The Nativity scene completes your Christmas decor❤

That's really cool that both RJ and Mikey are listening to comments!!! And making it reality!!! Congratulation on the new family members peasant birds!!!! 👍🏻😷👍🏿🇨🇦🇵🇭🇺🇲

With the reeds that reek... after they air out... RJ might consider spray painting them gold and/or silver.... maybe even a little glitter spray. Not only will it make them glam for Christmas decor it will probably knock out any of the rest of the poop smell.

Mikey and RJ build a greenhouse to plan flowers like roses, tulips etc. I missed watching your vlogs and happy holidays.

looks pretty the xmas ball hanging on trees…good😊

The hen is doing it as a survival trait, like if she is in the wild

Wow! The terrarium is awesome!

I'm really inlove with the terrarium, it must be a dream come true for you cause it is for us mabuhay squad!

Hi Mikey / RJ, yeah the tree lanterns are now much better to look at in different heights compared before when it was initially been installed. Good job ! 💞💞💞

Pretty soon you’re going 😢to have a Zoo!😃. And a designated veterinarian!👍

Beautiful Christmas decors! Random snowman is really cute and funny 😊

The AC video is Awesome! Your hardwork and passion really showed! I love it! I’ve seen it when it was uploaded and when I saw it I knew it was the reason there’s no new upload here! Thanks Mikey for the quality video always!

Beautiful Christmas Decorations! Love the x’mas trees and the nativity !

I watched the Antscanada video its awesome i also subscribed 😊 i love all your videos. ❤

Love the Front nativity and christmas lights RJ…..

Plant lemon grass all over the outside bird aviary

Hi mikey and RJ, Wishing you all the best for Christmas and 2024 from EVE in the UK xx

Thank you for your great efforts on videos. Always look forward to them.

❤ love the birds

Soo beautiful house very festive to look at!

Wow always nice to those lights around your Place Mikey and RJ esp the Christmas lights and decors🌲🎁👍

Mikey u and RJ might have to cook one of those pheasants for Christmas dinner with the money ur spending on Christmas but everything looks great so enjoy🇨🇦👍

SKINNY PIGs!!! EEEEE so cute! 😍

Love your vlog,very tropical and lots of adopted critters,makes your episode looking forward to how “are the critters doing?”😅😂.🇨🇦.

We totally understand that sometime you need to take a break to work on yourself or are the project as long as you come back!!!!! So amazing to see your work that will make a new world for your pets ants and everything!!!! I'm trying to catch up to your vlogs now. FYI sometime I binge watch a specific KZfaqr and then move to watch another KZfaqr but you're my number one channel!!!! I hope you read these comments but I know you have thousands to reads. 👍🏻😷👍🏿🇨🇦🇵🇭🇺🇲

The tank is phenomenal!

You can plant fruits trees like papaya, mangoes, avocado trees. Etc. you could add park benches in your farm. One can just seat there and just enjoy the feel of the farm. Breathe in the fresh air.

RJ did a FANTASTIC job with the decor in front of the fence. Beautiful Nativity scene esp! MIKEY > Does the Mabuhay Squad Farmhouse have SOLAR? Curious ...

WOW that's awesome ❤❤❤ I miss celebrating Christmas in the Philippines, watching this vlog all the way from KSA.....

That purple flower is good for tea Mikey.

FYI - those are not fresh dates rather it's called "jujube" .Despite its alternative name "red date", the jujube fruit is not a date but rather a species of Ziziphus in the buckthorn family. We grow that Jujube here in the Central Valley - Fresno, CA

You and RJ are really good match. Love you guys. Amazing farmhouse.
