Contents:

Many terrarium animals flourish in natural sunlight and fresh air. Keeping them outdoors, even if only for a few weeks in summer, is good for almost all of our reptiles. However, many species can also live outside all year round.

REPTILIA presents the most beautiful outdoor enclosures, documents the construction of two different terrariums as examples and deals with keeping lizards in the garden.

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.

The bearded dragon

All about bearded dragons by Peter Maria Müller 168 pages 155 colour photos, maps, tables, drawings Hardcover Format: 17.5 x 23.2 Author Peter Maria Müller Publisher NTV Contents: Hardly any other reptile is as popular with terrarium keepers as the bearded dragon Pogona vitticeps. It owes its success in the terrarium hobby not least to its interesting appearance, exciting behaviour and its calm and very trusting nature. Its husbandry requirements are easy to fulfil, and so it is bred by the thousands every year, making it easy to obtain and also ideal as a terrarium animal for beginners.Their close relatives such as the black-earth bearded dragon (Pogona henrylawsoni) or – although much rarer – Mitchell's bearded dragon (Pogona mitchelli) are also becoming increasingly popular.Peter Maria Müller, himself an experienced breeder of bearded dragons, gives you a detailed introduction to all representatives of the genus and their habitats. An identification key helps, you to differentiate between the individual species. In addition, all important aspects of keeping bearded dragons are explained in a comprehensive and easy-to-understand manner, such as decision-making aids before buying, handling the animals, sex determination, species-appropriate care and nutrition, possible diseases and, finally, successful breeding. Over 150 brilliant colour photos bring you closer to the world of bearded dragons and show the fascination of these popular lizards.
