5.0 out of 5 stars Iguana Iguana : Guide for Successful Captive Care, June 11, 2000

By	Erwin Oldeman (The Netherlands) - See all my reviews

This is the best book I have ever seen on the proper care of green inguana's. This book gives you the information based on the latest scientific research. It shows you the right way to choose an animal and how to give it proper housing, heating, lighting and a healthful diet. You'll also get detailed instruction on disease prevention and safe handling. Also you will find excellent information on the how-to's of breeding,including photo's of male aggressiveness, mating, and egg-laying. Most important for breeders is information on how to incubate the eggs. I did read a lot of books, but this one is the best!
