Many of us in the herpetoculture industry are not only interested in reptiles. We are also interested in keeping arachnids. So when we came across Jonathan at the Reptile SuperShow recently we were initially impressed by his arachnids on display and after we talked to him a moment we were sold on the idea that this was someone we should have on the show. Jonathan is not only passionate about his arachnids but he’s also got the knowledge to back up that incredible passion! If you’re into arachnids and insects then you’re going to love this show. He talks to us about good species for beginners and even some advanced species and much more. We look forward to having him on the show in the future and he’s also agreed to write an article for an upcoming issue of Herpetoculture House eZine as well!

Heather Wong is known in the reptile community as an outstanding Ball Python breeder.  I can’t even begin to tell you how impressed I was when we saw her collection at the show that she was offering for sale. If you want a Ball Python then you need to speak with Heather.  In this interview she talks with us in depth about how to not only keep Ball Pythons but also gives us some in depth care advice and answers some listener questions as well.  Heather maintains her site Heathers Herps which we highly recommend you visit

Justin Julander of Australian Addiction took the time to sit down with us and talk about the reptiles of Australian Addiction. He shared with us his early beginnings and gives some advice to new folks interested in getting into the herp industry.  We mainly focused on Australian Carpet Pythons in this particular interview but Justin also works with Irian Jaya Pythons as well.  Take a moment won’t you and learn a little about what it takes to maintain such an exotic addiction.  If you want to contact Justin or any of the folks from Australian Addiction its as easy as clicking the links provided.  We really enjoyed having Justin on the show and we even convinced him to come back and do an episode of Herp Chat with us later so we’re really looking forward to that too.
