With much regret, I shipped out the last of my hatchling bairds rat snakes that I produced this past year. I'm expecting more eggs any day now but in the meantime, I worked on building up my personal herp library. I've gotten into collecting herp books.

Here are a few MUST HAVE BOOKS that I recently acquired:

Of Golden Toads and Serpents' Roads
by Paul Freed (Jul 2003) based on a recommendation Bill Love made to someone else in this forum back in 2003!

A Snake Hunting Guide: Methods, Tools, and Techniques
for Finding Snakes
by Will Bird and Phil Peak (Paperback - Dec 7, 2007). A NEWER book I came across by accident surfing some herp websites. VERY WELL WORTH THE MONEY! GREAT PICS & EVEN BETTER TIPS!

Snake Hunting on the Devil's Highway
by Richard Lapidus

Cobras in his Garden
by HARRY KURSH; antique book about Bill Haast published in 1965. It may require a bit of work to find it & it's pricey ($100-$400 depending on condition)

Living on the Edge: Amazing Relationships in the
Natural World
by Jeff Corwin - seems like a cool book...recommended by a friend.

Snakes: The Keeper and the Kept AND
Snakes and Snake Hunting
both by Carl Kauffeld (Hardcover-1957)
