Listen in this week as the crew, minus a sick Erica, discuss the ins and outs of keeping animals in the same habitat. Cohabitation is usually thought of when referring to different species in the same habitat, but even when it's the same species there is a lot to consider. Listen in for things to think about before keeping any of your pets in the same enclosure.
This week the crew discusses the vast variety of climates where reptiles exist and the microclimates within them. With so many important pieces to create a complete habitat it can be overwhelming. Don't worry, here are some great ways to increase your pet's usable space within it's terrarium.
We all remember the joy we had when we first fell in love with reptiles, but we don't always remember what it was like to try and find information and what drove us. This week we speak with a friend who first set foot in the hobby 9 months ago as he talks about the things that excite him. Your hosts discuss the hobby and the depths that each facet can go.
As reptiles grow in popularity as amazing pets for families, there is a growing need to help rescue and rehome animals in need. This episode discusses some of the daily grind of running a rescue and the emotional impact it can have, both positive and negative. Before diving into starting one yourself, listen in and learn what to be ready for!
In this episode we discuss a topic that's rarely discussed in general, but likely never been discussed on a podcast. We bring in our great friend, reptile enthusiast, and licensed therapist, Bill Stewart, to discuss how he uses reptiles in therapy with at risk youth and some of the correlations between a love of reptiles and mental health disorders. Another amazing episode and one of the best discussions we've had to date. Don't miss this one!
