About this episode
In this episode, Fadi Naddeh interviews Khai Phan about breeding feeder insects and mangrove monitors.
Episode #137 of Daffy's Round Table! In today’s episode, we’re hanging out with the one and only Khai Phan a.k.a. Big_Lizard1o3 or the mastermind behind Mangrove Mecca. Kai is a wizard with monitor lizards especially mangroves monitors and he’s also got the whole feeder insect breeding game down to a science. We get into the details of how he raises everything from grasshoppers to roaches, crickets and mealworms and we nerd out about reptile nutrition. We also dive into the world of breeding mangrove monitors and chat about why Khai packed up and moved from California to Texas. Plus, you’ll hear about his awesome collaborations with Reptilandia Reptile Lagoon. Thanks for watching!
