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.

If you want to fulfil your desire to bring a piece of nature into your home with a terrarium, you cannot do without plants to create a natural habitat for your pets. Plants not only increase the visual value of a terrarium, they also improve the climate and provide the animals with cover and hiding places. Some amphibians and reptiles are also very closely tied to certain plants. Planting in the terrarium therefore fulfils a whole range of functions and is an important part of the furnishings.This book offers everything you need to know about caring for terrarium plants, designing near-natural terrariums and selecting suitable plant species!
