Handbook of food plants for tortoises and other reptiles
CHF 46.50
Handbook of forage plants 2nd revised editionMarion Minch is not only a successful breeder of diverse tortoises for many years, but also an excellent connoisseur of native wild herbs. She founded and runs samenkiste.de, which is well known to many tortoise keepers and nature lovers. Her name is inextricably linked with reptile care and species-appropriate nutrition for tortoises. Her handbook of food plants summarises the most important native food plants for herbivorous and omnivorous reptiles. She not only considers tortoises, but also iguanas, spiny-tailed dragons and even chameleons. From the basics of plant biology to native wild herbs to suitable food plants for hardy tropical reptile species, this comprehensive work provides the basis for species-appropriate keeping. In the expanded and supplemented 2nd edition, the plant section is divided according to flower colour. This makes it even easier to identify wild herbs. The work has also been supplemented with a wealth of additional information and many pictures.

Published by Gräfer & Unzer
Like creatures from another planet! Bearded dragons are right at the top of the popularity scale for terrarium animals. They fascinate with their bizarre appearance and inquisitive nature. The mini dragons from Australia are also easy to care for and quickly become trusting. In GU Tierratgeber Bartagamen, bearded dragon expert Manfred Au explains everything you need to know about keeping these diurnal lizards: what to look out for when choosing them - detailed portraits of bearded dragons help with this -, how to acclimatise and care for them properly, what tastes good and keeps them fit. There are also tried and tested tips on health care, hibernation and care in the event of illness. In addition, there are many ideas and suggestions for species-appropriate and varied design of the terrarium, so that the animals are completely comfortable. The behaviour interpreter also explains typical bearded dragon behaviour. And with SOS - what to do? help is guaranteed in an emergency.

The animals are admired for their colouring and their favourite position, curling up over a branch, almost symbolises our idea of a tree-dwelling snake. This species has been successfully kept and bred in terrariums for a long time. However, the other pythons of the Morelia genus are also very popular. We offer an overview of these exceptionally beautiful giant snakes, describe new ways of setting up a terrarium for Morelia viridis in a naturalistic way and look at the keeping and breeding of a species that is still little known, the python with a scaly scales, Morelia carinata.EditorialMAGAZINEDATESWESTERN HERP PERSPECTIVESThe fate of books part 2B.
