Reptile & Amphibian Forums

It is amaazing the amount of information a person can pick up simply reading posts. I am however prepared to take the next step. I will be looking to purchase a book or two. I would like to start a project of my own. All I have right now are 1.1 normals, and I have never bred leos so want something like ummm "Leos for dummies" The wee beasties just fasinate me. So anyway what would you all suggest as the best books available?, keeping in mind I am basically academically challenged. My many heartfelt and humble thanks to all

WYSIWYG

Reptile and Amphibian parasites (I think that's the title) by Eric Rundquist. This one isn't as useful as the book by Klingenberg, but it has excellent color pictures and works as a good supplementary text.

All of these books are pretty easy to understand, and you can even find a couple of them for really cheap on half.com.
