The Reproductive Husbandry of Pythons and Boas is the first reptile textbook to integrate the data accumulated by professional and amateur herpetologists in reptile husbandry with research in the reproductive physiology of reptiles. The result is over ten years of research conducted by the Institute for Herpetological Research; this book is the most comprehensive guide to maintaining and breeding reptiles in captivity available. The material in this book has been designed to provide detailed information on every aspect of captive propagation of pythons and boas, as well as valuable material on breeding and general husbandry of other reptile species. Every serious herpetologist will find this book an essential and invaluable aid.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for those interested in Boids!, April 11, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Reproductive Husbandry of Pythons & Boas (Hardcover)
This is a book that you simply must have if you are at all interested in the keeping and or breeding of Boa and Python snakes. This is one of the most complete works on the subject available to date. It is an easy reading book that even though there are some technical discussions, even an amature hobbyist will be able to follow along. Advanced hobbyists will also learn things from this book that they had not learned before, and it will make them think in a way that they had not thought before. This is a book that you will find yourself reffering back to for years to come. Not to mention you'll see incredible photos that you will not see anywhere else. This one goes on my top shelf for sure!

5.0 out of 5 stars the gospel, August 4, 2005
This book is the real deal. If you are interested in breeding or just curious this is the book to own. I have bred boas and pythons and I refer to this as often as possible. Even if you are not interested in breeding and just want to bone up on your knowledge this is a must have book in your library. Every self respecting herper should own this book!! It is "THE WHAT IT IS" book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, December 29, 2009
Comprehensive book provides everything a successful boa/python breeder needs to know. Book is backed by extensive research by the best experts. Covers snake care before and after the mating as well as egg incubation and embryo gender. I was succussful on first attempt to breed, incubate, and hatch healthy ball pythons thanks to this book! Honestly, no other research was needed.
