Exploring ethical captive management of reptiles & amphibians through the lens of biological science, conservation, and human nature. The Animals at Home Network is a herpetoculture-based podcast network that hosts: Animals at Home Podcast by Dillon Perron, Project Herpetoculture by Phillip Lietz and Roy Arthur Blodgett, Reptiles & Research Podcast by Liam Sinclair and Ellie Hills, and Animals Everywhere by Bryce Broom. Each show on the network brings all members of the reptile community together to discuss reptile husbandry, scientific research, breeding, wildlife conservation, and more!
Nick Bertrand is a keeper out of Quebec, Canada who now focuses on rare and uncommon lizard species. In the episode, Nick explains how his initial passion for reptile keeping quickly became unmanageable and resulted in him needing to take a break from herpetoculture entirely. Simply put, high-quantity rack keeping killed his passion for keeping which is a very common experience among herpetoculturalists. Nick tells us how he re-engaged with keeping, the rules he follows to maintain interest and we discuss the joy he gains from keeping now that he has turned his focus to high-level keeping. Nick keeps some incredibly interesting species including blue beauty anoles (Anolis equestris potior) , Spiny Tailed skinks (Egernia depressa), Brazilian Galliwasps (Diploglossus lessonae) and more!
