I have interacted with Roman in a handful of threads. He may not be the most conventional keeper, but he KNOWS HIS STUFF.
I've developed a HUGE respect for Roman because I've been fortunate enough to see how deep his research goes firsthand. He was kind enough to share some of the papers he has read with me. And just through listening to (errrr, reading) him, it is very clear that every move he makes with his animals is well thought out, due diligence has been thoroughly put in, and most importantly, his animals health and well being are always top priority.
Now, I will say that this particular cohabitation project is pushing the envelope a bit, but I think Roman is one of very few keepers I respect enough to fully support this project. I can say with complete certainty that Roman put the time in to do the research, weigh out pros and cons and do it the right way.
...and look at that enclosure, that is just gorgeous!!! Pretty much any herp lover's dream come true.
Roman, keep up the great work!!!!
