Recommended Reading

Anyone have any herp-related books to recommend? I used to check out a ton of books from the library as a youth but haven't done any serious reading on the subject in ages.

Looking for subjects including but not limited to:
- Species specific care (I like to read about stuff even if I don't keep it, but of course BP related books would be great)
- Anatomy/physiology
- Behavior/psychology
- Taxonomy
- Evolution
- Regional guides and references (Snakes of the Southeastern US, Amphibians of South America, etc)

Anything good you guys would suggest?

A couple books in my library that were very helpful and good resources.

- The Complete Boa Constrictor: A Comprehensive Guide to the Care, Breeding, and Geographic Races by Vin Russo

- The Complete Carpet Python, A Comprehensive Guide to the Natural History, Care, and Breeding of the 'Morelia spilota' Complex by Nick Mutton and Justin Julander

If you're looking to purchase them I would suggest directly contacting the author as they don't see any profit from Amazon sales.

Happy reading!!!
