The Beginners Guide To Keeping Reptiles And Amphibians
If you or someone you know wnats to keep a pet reptile or amphibian I've got both good news and bad...
The bad news is that there's so much to learn it can be hard to know where to start.
What are the best species to start off with? How much space do you need? How much time is their care going to take? How
expensive is it going to be to get set up? How long will they live? Where can you get them from in the first place?
And so on.
The good news is that I've just boiled my 10+ years of keeping reptiles and amphibians in captivity into a single work that is suitable
for even the most novice of pet keeper.
Every single technical term is explained in plain English so even a child could understand it.
And so, in over 15,000 words, with numerous illustrations to help illustrate the most important points you'll find my new book a friendly, first guide.
In it I'll take you right from the very beginning to the very end.
