    Thumbs up Mini Book Review




    I've never seen a book review on this forum so I don't know if this is first or not. I recently ordered "Ball Pythons" by Colette Sutherland. For all the noobes (newbies) here, this is an awesome book to buy. You can get it from Amazon.com (and I'm sure many other places as well).

    This is by far the best all-round book I have read yet on basic Ball Python keeping. Other books I have read are very dry and read more like a university text book. This one is very easy to read with lots of pictures and oodles of information on feeding, breeding, enclosures, genetics, natural history etc.

    It may be a little low level for the mega-breeders out there but it's perfect for hobbiest and inexperienced breeders such as myself.

    4-Stars!

    I own this book as well. Can't add much more than what you said. It is a good beginner book (they sell it at Pets Mart) I bought when I first picked up my snake. Won't tell you everything, but thats why bpnet is here
