  • 177: AAH If you don't have ZOO-LEVEL Habitats, Are you a Bad Keeper? | Chris Chaffin

    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?

                                    Lucas Bagnara is the owner of LAB Exotics, a reticulated python breeding facility that specializes in pure locality animals. Alongside Nathan Katz, Lucas is also the co-host of The Retic Longue, a podcast that aims to bring the reticulated python community together and provide a supportive community for new keepers and aspiring breeders. In this episode, Lucas gives us a full breakdown of the various reticulated python localities including the ones that fall under the 'Dwarf" and "Super Dwarf" categories. Lucas also fills us in on the Slither Files fiasco and how he helped expose Samson Pruitt to the greater herpetoculture community.
