Episode #83 of Daffy's Round Table!
On todays episode we are joined by Damian Mckay a reptile keeper from Australia. Damian is one of the owners of Copperhead Customs a company the builds well custom enclosures for you but then they also fully design and scape it for you and thats the part that Damian does!
The big topic for todays episode is really functionality vs aesthetics when it comes to building and scaping enclosures! Damian walks us through his thought process when designing, what he takes into consideration and how he makes sure its built to benefit the animals but still look aesthetically pleasing for us. We then also dive into the change in animal behaviour when you are giving the right size enclsoure and scape.
We also talk about water features, the benefits of them and why you should set one up!!

Episode #77 of Daffy’s Round Table!
Who doesn’t love crocodiles am I right?? Now while I definitely do not recommend them as pets some people do have the space, the facility and the means to house them and work with them and in this episode we learn all about keeping crocodiles and alligators in captivity!
And who better to teach us than Chris Dieter owner of Crocodile Encounter in Houston and writer of the Ultimate Guide To Crocodiles In Captivity!
Chris has successfully kept and bred many different species of crocodilians and was even the first person to breed the Chinese alligator in captivity in over 20 years! We also talk about how smart crocodiles really are, their behaviour and training them! This was a fascinating episode to record and think you’re all going to really enjoy it.
