Episode #52 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode, I’m joined by Bree from Breeze Exotics for a deep dive into hognose snakes and what it actually takes to breed and raise them successfully.
We talk about Bree’s approach to breeding hognoses, from pairing and producing clutches to hatching babies, getting them established, and dealing with some of the feeding challenges that can come with young hognose snakes. We also get into some of the projects she’s working with and what she’s learned from breeding and raising these awesome little snakes.
Then we switch gears and talk about something you don’t see nearly as often in the hobby: shovel-nosed sand snakes. Bree is currently working with three different species, so we get into how she keeps them, what makes them so unique, and why she decided to work with such uncommon snakes.
Lots of awesome information on this one enjoy! Huge thank you to Exo Terra for sponsoring this podcast and making this episode possible. Exo Terra makes quality products for our pet reptiles to make them feel at home!

Episode #150 of Daffy's Round Table.
On this episode, I'm joined by David Beetham from Clubtail Exotics, Wally Kern from Supreme Gecko, and Jason from Ghouls and Geckos. Between the three of them, they're working with some really incredible and uncommon gecko species, and today we're diving deep into the husbandry, breeding, and care of those animals.
We talk about everything from incubation techniques and raising babies to heating strategies, substrates, enclosure design, and how different keepers approach the same species in completely different ways. We also spend a lot of time discussing some of the rarer geckos in the hobby, including Pachydactylus species, Pristurus carteri, Paroedura picta, and many others.
If you're interested in uncommon geckos and hearing how experienced breeders approach these species, this is an episode packed with information.

Episode #149 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode, I'm joined by Kjell from Home Ecosystems, Bjurny and PlantArt and we dive into what I genuinely believe is the future of reptile and plant keeping.We talk about Home Ecosystems, a new hardware platform that allows keepers to automate and monitor virtually every aspect of their enclosures from lighting and heating to humidity, fogging, and more all through a single smart controller. We also discuss PlantArt, a beautiful living wall system that combines automation with incredible planted displays for homes, zoos, and public spaces. We also talk about the app Bjurny that Kjell created to bring the plant community together!
Throughout the episode, we explore how technology can help us become better keepers, why automation should improve husbandry rather than replace it, and where the future of the reptile hobby is headed. If you've ever wondered what the next generation of enclosure design and reptile keeping might look like, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Episode #144 of Daffy's Round Tables!
On this episode I'm joined by Rae from Rae’s Reptiles, and in this episode we talk all about doing reptile education shows. We get into what it’s like bringing reptiles into schools, birthday parties, and live events, what makes a good education animal, and how to create a show that’s fun, memorable, and actually teaches people something.
We also talk about how to present reptiles in a way that helps people connect with them instead of being afraid of them, and of course we talk about what goes into building a business around reptile education, and the importance of doing outreach and social media. Rae gives us some good social media strategies too. We also talk about Rae's experiences in zoos. She has worked in several zoos here in Canada and has a lot of awesome stories to share. One of those zoos is Little Ray's Nature Centre that was in Hamilton btw. Shout out Little Ray's!!!

Episode #142 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode, I’m joined by Nick Lillis from Unlimited Exotics, who is also one of the co-hosts of the Monitor Brains Podcast. I’m also joined by Adam Wickens from Wickens Wicked Reptiles as co-host for this one, because we’re going deep into the world of monitor lizards.
We spend a lot of time talking about crocodile monitors, what makes them so unique, Nick’s experience working with them, and what it actually takes to set them up properly and keep them well. We also get into the importance of good enclosure design and why monitors need to be understood on a much deeper level than a lot of people realize.
We also talk about the indicus complex, including species like the mangrove monitor, peach throat monitor, quince monitor, and others, and break down what makes that whole group so interesting.
On top of that, we talk about how supportive the monitor community can be, the different groups and species of monitors, where monitor keeping might be headed in the future, and briefly touch on laws, regulations, and the importance of responsible ownership and education.
Big thank you to Adam for jumping in as co-host on this one. This was a really fun conversation and a super informative episode, especially if you’ve been wanting to learn more about monitors.

Episode #136 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode, I’m joined by Tyler from The Chameleon Collective. We start off talking about how he first got into reptile keeping (spoiler: mountain horn dragons had a big role) and then talk about Tyler’s current collection and some of the species he’s working with, including the Knuckles Mountain Pygmy Lizard (Cophotis dumbara) that he’s currently breeding. It’s a really cool species that I think more people should be working with, so we spend some time diving into those.
Tyler is also an 8th grade biology teacher, so we talk about how he incorporates reptiles into his classroom and how he’s helping inspire the next generation to appreciate reptiles and wildlife.
We also talk about Happy Dragons, a group of reptile creators and educators putting out weekly episodes teaching people about reptiles. Tyler plays a really interesting role there, positioning himself as the “expert student”, asking the questions that everyone else wants answered.
And towards the end of the episode I found out Tyler is actually a parasite specialist, which opened up a whole other conversation that we only scratched the surface of — so we’ll definitely have to bring him back for a full parasites episode in the future.

Episode #135 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode, I’m joined by Nathaniel Gibson, CEO and founder of the Apollo Reptiles Co-op. We dive into the story behind the co-op, why it exists, how it originally started as a rescue, and what led to the transition into a cooperative model focused on accountability and ethical breeding standards. Nathaniel breaks down what “ethical standards” actually mean in practice and how the co-op is working to raise the bar for breeders.
We also get into Nathaniel’s personal collection, including chondros, carpet pythons, blood pythons, tortoises, and more. He’s currently in the middle of moving his reptile room and building a massive tortoise enclosure so we talk about that too! And make sure you stick around to the very end… we’ve got a special guest joining us for the final segment.

Episode #133 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode, I sit down with Jason from Ghouls and Geckos and the Gecko Exchange Podcast Network to dive into some of the more uncommon species he’s keeping with a big focus on Strophurus geckos.
Jason keeps several species of Strophurus, and we break down what makes them so interesting to work with, how he sets them up, and what he’s learned from breeding and maintaining them. We talk through enclosure design, seasonal cycling, and how he structures his reptile room around natural temperature and humidity fluctuations to keep his animals thriving.
Beyond Strophurus, Jason also works with a variety of other unique species including multiple Cyrtodactylus, Chinese cave geckos, Pachydactylus macrolepis, and even toad-headed agamas. We get into what draws him to these lesser-seen animals, how he chooses species for his collection, and what he has planned for future projects and breeding goals.

Episode #130 of Daffy's Round Table!
On this episode of Daffy’s Round Table, I’m joined by Preston from @Natures_in_a_nutshell one of the talented competitors at the Tinley NARBC Enclosure Build-Off hosted by Chewy & Wickens Wicked Reptiles. We chat all about what it takes to prepare for a high-stakes build like that, from the initial vision to the finishing touches. Preston walks us through the thinking behind his entry, shares the lessons he’s learned from building his own enclosures, and gives us a glimpse into his personal collection. From Schneider skinks to other underrated species, we dig into the animals that inspire him and why building the right setup can make all the difference.

Episode #129 Of Daffy's Round Table!
In this episode, I sit down with Wally Kern, the creator behind Supreme Gecko, for a deep dive into one of the most underrated species in the hobby: Pictus Geckos (Paroedura picta).
Wally has been working with pictus for years and brings a TON of experience to the table. We break down everything you need to know about this species from husbandry and feeding to morphs, breeding strategies, egg incubation, and why pictus geckos are such an amazing project for both new and advanced keepers.
We also branch out into some of the many other species Wally keeps that don’t get nearly enough love in the reptile world. And of course, we talk about what’s next for the Supreme Gecko brand as it continues to grow and expand.

In this episode, I sit down with Dan Carvalho, Senior Reptile Keeper at St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park — This zoo houses more crocodilian species there anywhere else in the world.
Dan shares what it’s like to work closely with 25 of those species, how crocodilian care and research has evolved over the years, and what the process looks like when new species are split and described by taxonomists. We talk about Indian gharials, enclosure building, breeding behind the scenes, behavioral observations, and the responsibilities of working in such a high-profile zoo.
We also chat about Croc School, a hands-on training program for aspiring croc keepers, and Croc Fest, a major conservation fundraiser for crocodilian research and protection.
Whether you’re a crocodile keeper, a conservation nerd, or just a fan of these ancient giants, this one is packed with insights and stories from the front lines of croc care.

Episode #126 of Daffy’s Round Table!
In this episode, I’m joined by a guest who truly needs no introduction—Tanner Serpa of SerpaDesign. Tanner has been inspiring keepers, creators, and nature lovers for over a decade with his beautifully crafted vivariums, aquascapes, and naturalistic builds. I’ve personally been watching his content for nearly 10 years now, so it was a real honor to finally have him on the podcast to chat. We talked about how he approaches each build from concept to completion, how he balances aesthetics with function, where he draws inspiration, and the philosophy behind building something that actually lives and breathes. We also got into YouTube strategy, content longevity, and the process of turning a passion for nature into a full-time creative journey.

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!

Hello everyone! and welcome back to episode 55 of Daffy's Round Table!
In today's episode, we're diving into the concept of rewilding – exploring the possibilities of re-releasing species into their native habitats and whether they can truly thrive.
To help us navigate this incredibly fascinating subject, we have two incredible guests on board, Carlos Galviz and Jack Small. Were going to be using the oophaga lehmanni project happening at Cali Zoo which Carlos is heavily involved in as a case study for our conversation.
Also! I want to give a huge thank you to Dan from Amphibicast. Not only did he help set up today's episode, but he's also joining me as my co-host for this one!
Make sure you check out Episode 132 of Amphibicast. They explore the project in great detail, and it's definitely worth a listen!

Hello everybody and welcome to episode 47 of Daffy’s Round Table!
MOUNTAIN HORNED DRAGONS!!!
It’s no secret that mountain horned dragons are one of my favourite species unfortunately they are hard to come by and information on their care is even harder to come by. That’s why for this episode I’ve invited two of my friends and fellow Acanthosaura keepers to help spread some more information on Mountain horned dragon husbandry and shed a light on how incredible this species really is!

Hello everybody and welcome to episode 42 of Daffy’s Round Table!
On todays episode we step away from reptiles to learn about another niche hobby. Ants!
I met Zachary from the Canada Ant Colony at one of the expos a few months ago and went down a rabbit hole of looking up ants after seeing his booth. So I reached out to him and he agreed to come on the show and teach us about ants!
We talk all about the different species of ants in the hobby, how to setup a formicarium for ants, what they eat and the interesting relationships between different species of ants.

Hello everybody and welcome to episode 41 off Daffy’s round table.
On this episode I’m joined once again by my good friend Jenn aka Jayhayjay.
Today’s episode is going to be a little different. Jenn and I discuss why new comers to the hobby generally stick to species like ball pythons, leopard geckos and cresties. We discuss why diversifying your keeping portfolio is important and what we as breeders can do to create a shift into popularizing other species.

Hello everybody and welcome to episode 40 of Daffy’s Round Table!
In this episode I am joined by James of Top Shelf geckos and we’re going to be talking about collard lizards! I get into why I wanted to discuss this species in the episode but the second I saw them on James’s booths at one of the expos I immediately knew I wanted to do an episode on them.
We get into collard lizard natural history, husbandry and James’s experiences breeding them. We also discuss the scary Devriesea agamarum where it comes from and what keepers should be doing to avoid exposing their reptiles to it.

Hello everybody and welcome back to episode 35 of Daffy’s round table. This week we’re gonna tackle a concept that we’ve discussed in multiple episodes and it’s also been discussed on both the amphibicast podcast and the animals at home podcast. I’m referring to the differences between the aquarium hobby and the reptile hobby. We’re going to be discussing the different technology and the different DIY strategies that exist in both. My guest for today is Greg Nikitin of Beneath The Canopy Exotics. Greg has been in both the aquarium hobby and reptile hobby and so has experience from both sides. He’s also an extremely talented DIY-er and can come up with a practical solution for pretty much any problem. This is also where beneath the canopy exotics comes into play.

Welcome to episode 32 of Daffy’s round table. Living in Canada snake bites are not something we have to worry about too often but in some parts of the world snake bites can be a big problem.
The world health organization estimates around 1.8-2.7 million envenomations each year. These bites end up in limb amputations, permanent disabilities and in many cases death. Most of these bites happen in Africa, Asia & Central & South America where in many areas medical resources are sparse. Unfortunately.
Regardless where you are in the world one of the best things you can do to prepare yourself for a bad situation is to actually learn about snake venom, what it does, why snakes bite you in the first place and what to do when you do get bit.
My guest today is Nathaniel Frank from the MToxins Venom Lab! Nathaniel is the perfect guest to teach us about snake bites dos and donts. We’re also going to learn all about venom extractions and hear his story’s working with venomous animals everyday.
