Animals at Home Podcast

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST NETWORK: SPOTIFY► https://spoti.fi/2UG5NOI Chris Chaffin of Cooperhead Reptilia joins me on the podcast today to discuss whether or not it is possible to be a good reptile keeper if you aren't able to keep at the highest standard. In other words, is there room for a middle ground between industrial care and high-quality zoo-level enclosures? Or is reptile husbandry a binary equation?

SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST NETWORK: SPOTIFY► https://spoti.fi/2UG5NOI Danielle Inman is the owner and founder of TheOtherPets.com which is a consulting agency for both private pet keepers and professionals. Danielle has an incredible amount of experience working with exotics, she was a consistent fixture on National Geographic’s Animal ER and led the Avian and Exotics team at Gulf Coast Veterinary Specialists for 13 years. In my opinion, Danielle has revolutionized herpetoculture with her exotics consulting agency which I believe to be a major missing link in our quest to improve the trade.
