Jamie Woods returns to the Animals at Home Network to continue a discussion on applying tried and true aquarium concepts to herpetoculture. In the episode, Jamie discusses the current lack of biofeedback within reptile enclosures and how mixed-species enclosures may fix that. We cover the lack of hunting opportunities we give snakes in captivity and how live-feeding may be the key to triggering breeding behavior in some species. We wrap up the episode with a conversation about technology in both reptile and fish keeping and why advancing tech is not always better.
