If you don't have ZOO-LEVEL Habitats, Are you a Bad Keeper? | Chris Chaffin

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?
