We kick things off with a major milestone—Voldy gets a brand new enclosure! We walk you through the setup process and how our favorite noodle boy is settling into his new space. Then, we chat about Neptune's adventure with mealybugs and adding live plants to her chameleon enclosure.
Later in the episode, we recap our wild weekend at the Oddities & Curiosities Expo, where we saw everything from bone jewelry and wet specimens in jars to some truly bizarre art pieces.
If it was weird, wonderful, or a little bit creepy—we were into it.
