Hi!

I'm about to get my first brongersmai in about 30 days.

I have read the artivles/caresheets i could find on the Internet
but i'd like some more "In depth" reading, so does anyone have a suggestion for books, regarding bloods and STP, that i could purchase somewhere?

Thanx )

I haven't been able to find a single book on them, but the best articles have been caresheets at NERD (www.newenglandreptile.com) and Pro Exotics (www.proexotics.com).

I know the Barkers have written several dissertations, but I havent heard of an actual book devoted just to the species. I believe there is a veteranary library somewhere at my University, but I haven't gotten around to finding it quite yet. If anyone knows of some good reading on bloods/st's or pythons in general please post up

Well worth hunting for.

Curanial and Roach raise a good point - Kara, write a book.
