Book Description

March 1997
It is only recently that pet food manufacturers have started providing for reptiles, yet in a relatively short time, a lot of product has been created -- each with its own claims to superiority. How, then, to choose?

In this book, Palika explains reptilian nutritional needs for carnivores, herbivores, omnivores and insectivores -- species as varied as
-- iguanas
-- snakes
-- turtles & tortoises
-- skinks
-- chameleons
-- frogs & toads
-- even bearded dragons

Ingredients are reviewed in clear, simple, objective language so owners can learn what their pets really need, and in which products to find them.
