5.0 out of 5 stars The Corn Snake Manual, March 24, 2000
By 
This review is from: Corn Snake Manual (Paperback)
This one of the best books on corn snakes I have read. It covers anything anyone interested would need from history to selection to breeding. The color pictures are great.

This book is a must for anyone interested in keeping, breeding or just learning about Corn Snakes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Required reference for corn snake keepers, August 29, 2001
By 
Jonathan Crowe (Shawville, QC, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Corn Snake Manual (Paperback)
This is the best and most comprehensive care guide for corn snakes on the shelves, from a couple who breed them by the thousand each year. Each section covers its subject thoroughly and with authority: a lengthy treatise on brumation; a thoughtful couple of pages on stress; even a serious investigation of commercial snake sausages (ick!) under feeding. That thoroughness also carries over to the lavishly illustrated section covering color and pattern morphs: we not only get a picture and a brief description, but also the history of how that given morph came about (and by whom). So we discover, for example, that a pewter corn is a combination of bloodred and charcoal (anerythristic B), that butter is an amelanistic caramel, that a milk snake phase is a selectively bred Miami phase, and so on. With so much useful and interesting information in this book, every hobbyist with corn snakes simply has to have it.

By A Customer
This review is from: Corn Snake Manual (Paperback)
The best of books written by the professionals for anybody. Any experienced keeper will value this, but even the newcomer should get this book. With every possible piece of info. you could know about a cornsnake, there isn't a topic that isn't covered. If you have a cornsake, then buy this book.
