4 out of 5 stars Good if you haven't yet chosen a python   January 18, 2004
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Helps in choosing a species, but offers little care advice relating to the care of specific species. Still, I consider this a must-have for its basic information on sexing snakes, helping them shed, and ensuring a proper feeding schedule.


5 out of 5 stars A MUST FOR PYTHON HOBBYIST   November 16, 2000
 8 out of 13 found this review helpful

Since I don't have a pet python yet and i don't want to have an accident so I bought this book in order to familiarize everything before buying one or two if possible.

For me, this is the most comprehensive book about pythons on how to select, care, breed and medical nutrition and behavior on such lovable snakes.

So, hobbyist or the like... buy this book first in order to be a more effective and good caretaker of your own python... =)

4 out of 5 stars A concise guide to the care of Pythons.   January 26, 1999
 17 out of 17 found this review helpful

This is a good book for the beginning python owner and a good source of general information from choosing, housing, breeding, and caring for pythons. It also has a section describing the care and characteristics of different species. One great section actually illustrates rather than decribes the sexing of pythons, which is impressive for a book this size. I have herp books in my collection costing 15x as much that do not illustrate this process. For the cost, a very good book.
