Melbourne Reptile Keeping Excellence Masterclass Workshop
Sun, Oct 4, 9:00 AMWe are hosting our next gathering for The Reptile Keepers Masterclass Social Club, focusing on the practical side of reptile husbandry and maintaining long-term health for our animals. This session is designed to move beyond the basics, offering a space where we can troubleshoot common challenges, share insights on enclosure optimization, and discuss the nuances of refined keeping practices. Whether you are an experienced hobbyist or someone looking to elevate your current standards of care, this workshop is a great opportunity to connect with others who take their commitment to these animals seriously. The afternoon will be informal but focused, providing plenty of time for hands-on discussion and questions. We want this to be a genuine exchange of knowledge where everyone feels comfortable sharing what has worked for them and what hasn't. Our goal is to foster a supportive local network where we can all learn from each other's experiences in a collaborative environment. If you are interested in joining us for this session, please make sure to RSVP at your earliest convenience so we can manage numbers for the space. We look forward to seeing everyone there and hearing about your latest projects.
