Great Title, Not Much Else,
By Alexandra Mironov (South San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eat This Bug: A Guide to Invertebrate Live Foods for Reptiles and Amphibians (Paperback)
Eat This Bug was a huge disappointment. It's main fault is that it contains very little detailed information. There are some nice pictures in this book, a list of insects that are suitable for feeding reptiles and amphibians and not much else. There is no discussion of reptile and amphibian nutrition, little information on how to care for your insects once you get them home, little or no information on culturing your own insects, and no information about the suitability of different insects as food for different reptiles and amphibians. The book is so simplistic, it seems to be written for children. It was a big waste of my time and money.

Eat this Bug: A Guide to Invertebrate Live Foods,
By Lori G. Williams (Excelsior Springs, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eat This Bug: A Guide to Invertebrate Live Foods for Reptiles and Amphibians (Paperback)
At $9.95 I thought this book was way overpriced. It is 8.5 x 5.5 inches, a paperback with stapled spine. Only 58 pages of content, and each of those is half printed with text. Black and white illustrations are few and of low quality. Information is only rudimentary, but accurate. I would recommend those interested in this topic to look anywhere else!

Reptiles foods made easy,
By warren picket (california) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eat This Bug: A Guide to Invertebrate Live Foods for Reptiles and Amphibians (Paperback)
This book is a simple guide to finding and keeping live foods for herp pets. A good source of info about suppliers of hard to find items in the appendix. If you want to raise your own insects, this is a good place to start.
