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.

West African Mantis
West African Mantis Pseudocreobotra ocellata (flower mantis) This West African mantis (flower mantis) lives in West and East Africa. There it is found in scrubland and grassland, where flowering plants also occur. The male lives for approx. 3-5 months after the last moult and the female for up to 10 months. Food The West African mantis feeds mainly on small, flying insects such as Drosophila, houseflies and moths. However, it also eats small crickets, crickets and cockroaches. Care A terrarium measuring 30x30x45cm is required to keep a West African mantis. Terrarium soil is ideal as a substrate. Live plants and branches are essential. The plants improve the climate in the terrarium. The temperature should be between 30-35°C. It can also be warmer directly under the heat lamp. The humidity should be 50-70%. Special features If the mantis is fed regularly and well, it can also be kept in a group. There must be enough plants and hiding places. However, losses are always to be expected.
