I bought this book for my son because we were planning on getting him a snake. We were told ball pythons are a good snake for beginners because they are docile in nature. We bought the book for our son to start reading...we are yet to get the snake, probably this weekend, actually. The book was pretty informative, though I could have appreciated it going a little deeper. it tends to scratch the surface of snake care, but that is probably what it's purpose is. As a basic informative book, it is very good.
when it comes to snakes, especially captive owned it is important to be as up to date as possible with your knowledge. this book is extremely outdated. it states that ball pythons are look at me pets and do not like to be handled among much other flat out wrong or contriversial information. make sure if you are a new ball python owner or snake owner you get no books dated past 2000 and the newer the better because science grows each day, and so does our understanding of this amazing animal (: Tianna
The Guide to Owning a Ball Python is essential reading for anyone just starting to work with BPs. It is clearly written by someone who knows a great deal about working with the beautiful animals. Readers will enjoy his style of writing and the brilliant photos that accompany the text.
Very informative, I love the do's and dont's that really helped me alot. Great book if you are seeking general help with breeding and raising Ball Pythons.
