Handbook of food plants for tortoises and other reptiles

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.
