Description

The bearded dragons of Australia are some of the most exciting lizards in the pet trade and are taking the country by storm. This updated, revised and more comprehensive version of "The General Care and Maintenance of Bearded Dragons" is the most up-to-date and complete guide available for these popular lizards. The authors provide the essential information for choosing, housing, feeding, interacting and providing proper veterinary care for bearded dragons. A chapter on the frilled dragon may encourage you to also consider this fascinating Australian lizard.

Bearded dragons are some of the most beautiful and exciting lizards ever established in captivity and they are taking the country by storm. Personality plus moderate size, alertness, docility and ease of care make them among the best choice for a pet. Everything from selecting, housing set-ups, handling and breeding to notes on popular species, diseases, incubating eggs and common causes of failure and death. It's ALL here in this book by the masters, de Vosjoli and Mailloux.

The highly acclaimed Advanced Vivarium Systems® series, founded and guided by herpetocultural pioneer Philippe de Vosjoli, are the #1 books on reptile care. From choosing a pet, to selecting a veterinarian, to feeding, housing, breeding, and more, these books deliver the most helpful and up-to-date information available on popular reptiles and amphibians kept as pets.

Philippe de Vosjoli is the herpetocultural pioneer who founded the first nationally distributed reptile and amphibian magazine, The Vivarium, and the best-selling Advanced Viriarium Systems line of reptile care books. His many articles and books have established many of the standards used in the field today, including popularizing terms such as 'herpetoculture" and "vivarium."

In 1995, de Vosjoli was awarded the Josef Laszlo Memorial Award for Excellence in Herpetoculture and for his contribution to the advancement of the field. He is currently working on developing a systems approach to keeping amphibians and reptiles that focus on the aesthetic and functional aspects of naturalistic vivaria.

Stephanie W from Florida says: Great book for new Beardie owners. I got my Bearded dragon a little over 2 years ago and bought this book at the same time. It was a big help in getting started and has been a good reference whenever I've encountered any problems.

Rating: [4 of 5 Stars!]

Norm F from Illinois says: I LOVE THIS BOOK. I bought it when I first got a bearded dragon more than 3 years ago. It's a SWEET book. I had PLENTY of questions about bearded dragons, so I used the book a lot initially. It contains a wealth of information, and is written in a easy-to-read, and sometimes comical style by individuals knowledgable about almost every aspect of rearing bearded dragons. If you're considering getting a bearded dragon--BUY THIS BOOK FIRST. If you already have a bearded dragon, and don't have this book--make a move. This book will help you to raise healthy, active and spolied-rotten bearded dragons, and put you in the know as to why, what and when these amazing creatures are doing what they do. Get this book.
