Black reptiles & unrealistic expectations | Episode 115

In this episode, we start by spotlighting black reptiles making sure to only include the striking all-black species. Then we dive into a bigger conversation about expectations vs. reality in reptile keeping, especially how social media can shape—and sometimes distort—what the hobby really looks like day to day. We break down the differences between what you see online versus what actually happens behind the scenes, from care routines to setbacks that don’t make it into highlight reels.
