Hello everybody and welcome back to the first episode of 2025 of Daffy’s Round Table!

My guest for today is Tony Wigley, a passionate advocate for our hobby and the animals we love! Tony and his wife Vickie are the founders of Responsible Reptile Keeping, where they've been at the forefront of the fight against animal rights propaganda and the waves of reptile bans happening around the world.

In this episode, we dive deep into the challenges facing the reptile community, the critical work that RRK is doing to protect our rights as keepers, and, most importantly, what every single one of us can do to ensure the future of the reptile hobby. If you’re serious about preserving this amazing community, you won’t want to miss this one!

Episode #89 of Daffy’s Round Table!

Chameleons are their own niche within the niche that is the reptile hobby and I think their care & husbandry is abit of an enigma for most reptile keepers

On this episode I’m joined by one of the leading educators on Chameleons in the hobby, Bill Strand of Chameleon Academy and we dive into all things chameleons!

Did you know there were over 200 species of chameleons? Or that there were several different types of Jackson’s chameleons? We also talk about why Chameleons have such a bad reputation, is there care really as hard as people think? And ofcourse how we can do better when it comes to Chameleon husbandry!

Bill is also a leading entrepreneur in this industry with multiple different projects on the go all the time! So towards the end of the episode we also talk about the importance of having a social presence as a breeder or a business and then we just nerd out about a bunch of content creation stuff!

Enjoy!
