Tommy's Reptiles has passed 115 million lifetime views, with a green tree monitor supplying the most watched new upload of the week. Its lunch begins upside down: hanging from a branch, the lizard takes a large green caterpillar from feeding tongs, then scrambles higher into its enclosure to swallow it. No narration needed, just a very purposeful climb.

The turtle side of the channel had a practical week. Tommy posted both a short look at a DIY basking area and a longer tutorial for making a completely hidden basking spot. He describes the project as something his turtles needed and says he completed it in minutes. Both uploads are among the channel's busiest videos right now, alongside a new quince monitor clip.

There was also room for an alligator, an aquarium and Squishy the frilled dragon among the week's eight uploads. Frilled dragons have a substantial place in this channel's history: the older "DON'T BITE ME!😳#frillednecklizard #frilleddragon #lizard #reptiles #animals #animalshorts #fyp" Short has accumulated roughly 44 million views.

The subscriber count stayed unchanged over the week, while daily views are close to their usual level. Nearby reptile channel Geeky Gecko Creations also had no subscriber gain, though its weekly views were a little higher. For Tommy, the fresh activity spans two familiar pleasures: watching reptiles eat and making their homes work better.
