This review is from: Geckos (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
This book details the captive care and matinence of geckos.This book can get you through your first lizard or answer a quick question for the advanced herpetologist. So if I were you I would buy this book to see if geckos are right for you or see how to better the care of yours.

This review is from: Geckos (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
Great general book on geckos. Lots of unusual species as well as common ones with good basic information in an easy-to-understand format. This would be good for the beginner trying to decide on a lizard or for the advanced hobbyist looking for their next rare find.
