If you don't have ZOO-LEVEL Habitats, Are you a Bad Keeper? | Chris Chaffin
SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST NETWORK: SPOTIFYâ–º 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?
