Books that should be on every breeder's bookshelf?
I love to read, research, and learn about the animals in my care.
Can anyone recommend some herp books they think every BP breeder ought to have in their home?
Thank you!

I have the VPI book, it's awesome! :gj:
Re: Books that should be on every breeder's bookshelf?
Without a doubt and nothing comparable out there, covers everything about ball pythons and then some ;

Also recommend Kevin McCurley's The Complete Ball Python
Re: Books that should be on every breeder's bookshelf?
We have both the VPI and Kevin's book and I'd recommend them highly. Not only informative but just wonderful books to curl up with (the photography is amazing - put on a drool bib LOL).
I haven't had a chance to see this one yet but I hear it's really nice.

Also (ESPECIALLY FOR BREEDERS)
"No Regrets: A Ten-Step Program for Living in the Present and Leaving the Past Behind (Paperback)"

(Note to readers: I do not own these books, but eventually may need to...:rolleyes:)

This one might be a little intensive, but it does have a lot of great information. :gj:
Re: Books that should be on every breeder's bookshelf?
I have Kevin's book, loved it! I ordered VPI's just before the Daytona get-together, so I hope that'll be here soon. Thanks for the recommendations. :)
