    It is called the Complete Ball Python, A Comprehensive Guide to Care, Breeding, and Genetic Mutations. I have the book and I absolutely love it.

    Re: Good Ball Python books

    VPI's 'Pythons of the World, Vol. II: Ball Pythons' is the best book I've come across. I also have NERDS book and the VPI book is better in every way. I'll also be getting the book by John Berry.

    I have never read the VPI one to be honest. I have heard it explains in great detail, but can be quite complicated, But even so i would love a read
