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.

Clay is the oldest and most universal building material in the world. The animal world has been demonstrating for millions of years how it can be used to build safe dwellings. And humans also utilised this building material a long time ago and even created huge and artistic buildings from it.
Clay can also be used perfectly for our pets. Building projects for animal housing of all kinds, landscaping in terrariums, soil construction for aquariums, pest control in aviaries, pigeon coops and stables - this book will show you how to do all this and what you need for it.Clay is not only a building material that can almost always be reused, but also contributes to the health of humans and animals. Clay binds toxins, displaces pests and is suitable as a fertiliser. For this reason, the health maintenance of our protégés through clay is also described in detail

Inhalt:
Schildkröten sind die Sympathieträger unter den Reptilien. Urtümliches Äusseres gepaart mit liebenswertem Wesen und sprichwörtlicher Gemütlichkeit machen sie bei allen Altersgruppen beliebt. Die Steppenschildkröte bildet da keine Ausnahme, ganz im Gegenteil: Ihr „handliches“ Format und die einfach zu erfüllenden Haltungsanforderungen machen sie zu einem äusserst geeigneten Terrarientier. Thomas Wilms, DRACO-Redakteur und Leiter des „Reptiliums“, schildert aus seiner langjährigen erfolgreichen Haltungspraxis sämtliche Aspekte rund um Haltung und Pflege dieser attraktiven Schildkröten. Ausserdem lesen Sie, wie Sie Ihre Tiere zur Paarung stimulieren, die Eier ausbrüten und die niedlichen Jungen aufziehen können.
