    I also bought a book ;-P

    Hi,

    Mine isn't one of the really high priced ones but I hear the author really knows his stuff.

    It's one I didn't even know existed untill two nights ago ( mainly because I'm as sharp as a marble but partially because amazon uk doesn't carry it)

    So has anyone read this one and care to tell me what they thought of it to tide me over untill it is delivered.

    Re: I also bought a book ;-P

    That was the first book I bought when I saw the first BP Morphs online! It's like a short version of "the Complete Ballpython". It just doesn't have the Genetics and Morph pictures in it. But you won't regret getting this book.

    I've read it over and over and over and over.....well you get the point

    Oh, when you're done with this one, it might be cool to have "the Complete Ballpython". It's VERY complete....

    I bought the Complete Ball Python first. Then discovered this one at a local herp shop, and had to have it. It does seem to be a very, very abridged version of the Complete Ball Python. As far as the smaller ball python books are concerned, its the best!

    Excellent!



    I must admit the number of photographs swung it for me.

    I got an email to say it had been dispatched so I just have to wait for the nice postie to deliver it now.

    **crouches behind the door to better grasp the precioussss when it arrives**

    Re: I also bought a book ;-P

    Hi,


    You guys were right - this is an excellent little book.

    Beautifull pictures and covers a great amount of info for such a small, inexpensive, book - it may have just replaced Philippe de Vosjoli's "the ball pyhton manual" as my first stop reference book.

    It certainly does make me want to rush out and buy its big brother without a doubt.
