Sounds like your best bet might be a university publisher. Or perhaps you'll have to self-publish. Either way, distribution will be the biggest hurdle (as is the case with all books). I'm guessing you already know these things.

Have you considered on-line publishing? You could assemble all your information and photos into a web site and charge visitors a fee for password access. I know at least one site for insects that does this. They charge a one-time fee of USD$10 via PayPal. After they receive payment, they email you a password. It works great, especially since the audience is quite limited. I'm sure you could easily charge more. Instant access around the globe. Plus, you could do it yourself in your many languages. That would be impressive.

The best part about a "living" document on the Internet is that you can constantly update it. Your site could become a one-stop-shop for the latest husbandry information. You could sell your surplus lizards there, too.

Good luck! -Jeff
