Good books?

elgecko Nov 15, 2005 09:41 PM

I have 3 or 4 different books I had purchased on Leopard Geckos several years ago when I first kept and bred them. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good book. Maybe one that get more involved then how to keep them. Such as morphs, dominate and recessive genes, genetics etc.

I was wondering if anyone has seen or read this book: The Herpetoculture of Leopard Geckos?
What was your thoughts?

Yes, I have that book, written by Philippe de Vosjoli, Ron Tremper & Roger Klingenberg DVM. It is excellant in my opinion, and has WAY more than simple Leo care & husbandry. Sounds like it is just what you are looking for. Looks of info & pics of the various morphs and lots of info on genetics. I truly don't think you'd be disappointed in that book
