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!
Jessica Fennen is the content creator behind the YouTube channel, Jessica’s Animal Friends. Jessica runs a reptile sanctuary that’s catered to reptiles with physical and/or neurological disorders. Jessica cares for 30+ leopard geckos, many with lifelong disabilities, most of which related to morph breeding. We discuss the leopard gecko morphs which cause the most issues (enigma, white & yellow, lemon frost, etc.) as well as how to successfully care for reptiles with disabilities. We cover the ethics of morph breeding and when euthanasia is appropriate. We wrap the episode up by discussing the challenges of caring for such a large number of animals.
