Booklist?

[Marla]

Grain of salt, shug - Kayne was reading through the Python book (the popular Bartlett one) which says to feed your Python every 3 to 6 weeks. GAH!

Which reminds me, and Colubrids is the wrong place for it so I'm making a new thread, but can anyone give me specific recommendations as to which books on ball pythons are good and which are to be avoided? I know the Ball Python Manual is kind of the default reference, though it's slightly out of date, but my cousin just got a book from her mom and I don't have any idea whether it's worthwhile. I told her I'd look into which books are good and which aren't.

Good thread idea - and I am a bit of a bookfiend (though they are competing for space with enclosures atm). Have relied more heavily on web-based info but have been looking for some nice references.

Won these in an auction:




And I have to tell you they are geared towards a children's library - won't help you much a'tall in husbandry - the info is pretty general such as you might find in an encyclopedia and the type is in that 3rd grage 24-point size. Not-too-shabby pictures though.

Can you tell us the name of the series of those books? Or the publisher anyway? That will be useful since their titles appear just to be the name of the snake.

LOL, no problem! Any books you can recommend?
