Keeping giant snakes requires large caging and the knowledge of certain procedures for safe handling and maintenance. Husbandry and captive breeding of this popular species is covered in great detail. The original AFH guidelines for responsible ownership and handling of large pythons are included. A chapter presents information on other giant pythons with similar care. Although a black and white book, it remains one of the best on the subject. 44 pp. B&W.

This review is from: The General Care and Maintenance of Burmese Pythons: Including Notes on Other Large Pythons (General Care and Maintenance of Series) (Paperback)
This little booklet may be small, lack color photos, and appear a little outdated, but it covers care and husbandry of Burmese pythons in considerably more depth than I've found in several other books. I am a breeder of Burmese pythons and highly recommend this book to everyone who buys my snakes. You just can't beat having this level of detail at your fingertips for the price. If you own or plan to own a Burmese python this booklet will help you out on the basics of cage design, feeding regimens, handling, disease, and even breeding techniques. If everyone who owned these animals followed all the tips in this booklet, all the captive Burms would be better cared for, which might even help eliminate the bad rap these snakes often acquire.
