On this episode I sit down with Michael Gillian, co-host of the Reptile Rejects Podcast, to talk snakes, setups, and everything in between.Michael keeps a wide range of species, and in this conversation we dive into some of the more unique and underrated snakes he’s working with including Trans-Pecos rat snakes, pine snakes, and lesser-seen boas. We also get into how Michael sets up and manages his reptile room, including his approach to brumation and preparing animals for the 2026 breeding season.
