📍 Our lives have changed fast these last two weeks… Since joining @TheReptileRoomSTL everything has leveled up! From Maria becoming Lead Keeper to me launching a brand-new company called BBTTRR (Be Better) Today, we’re taking you along for everything we’ve been getting into!
We start the day by following Maria through her new role: • Hands-on animal care • Daily training routines • Running tours, events, and keeper experiences • Prepping habitats and working with some incredible species
Then we take on a big project together: building out a brand-new enclosure for some stunning California Red-Sided Garter Snakes, and you’ll see the exact moment we put them into their new home.
After that, we hit the road to visit our friend @tarantulakat where we surprise her with some new Tarantula Cribs for her Indian Ornamental Tarantulas… and she surprises us right back with a baby scorpion and a few adorable baby wolf spiders for Maria!
When we finally return to The Reptile Room, and I open up about something huge: I’ve officially launched my new company BBTTRR (Be Better) a brand built around the lives of animals, creators, and keepers. And in today’s video, I explain exactly how YOU can help, and how this project may genuinely impact animals both in captivity and the wild all around the world!
This is one of the most exciting chapters of our lives, and we’re so grateful you’re here for it! ❤️🐍🕷️
