good books on reptile health and meds

TymLrd Jan 31, 2008 08:14 PM

I have a really good book on reptile parasites it gives meds and dosages.
I need one that covers illness's like RIs and Abcesses and the like.Not just one that identifies the problem but also suggests possible meds and dosages for various species.
I dont have a reptile vet but do have a really good vet who is willing to take on any of my exotic pet problems but I need to be educated to the degree that I can say hey this is not a good idea or even something to show her incase.
Any suggestions?
Thanx

Reptile Medicine and Surgery by Mader. Learning to culture bacteria is a big help too.
