[BOAS_N_PYTHONS]

Hi there folks:

A while back I posted a photo on Boa books of interest to help a fellow member get a head start on information on them. So I looked through my collection of books and found I can do a better post of that information including pythons as well. Since this is about boids mostly boas I put this post here.

This is our collection of informative and useful books we collected over the years aside from internet information and contacts with breeders and the forums.

I really reccommend ''What's wrong with my snake'', it's an excellent book that i've read a few times but i'll buy one soon... Its a must for every herper... Ive read the Complete Chondro book and its also an awesome book, i would have bought it just for the pics in it!!! Even if i dont have a chondro, hehe! Does anyone else have comments on some of these books?

How is The Complete Chondro, as far as depth, info, etc...? I have heard good things about it, and would like to get a copy as I would love to get into some Chondros in a few years down the road... Any other Chondro books to reccommend...?

The Complete Chondro (book) is a must have if you want to get into Chondros..........there may be other books but this one is the top. Loads of info, loads of photos....overall a great book. Its the bible of Chondros in my opinion. I ordered mine direct from author and got it signed as well.

I am just finishing reading the complete condro and it is very good! Next year i plan on attaining my 1st condro and i wouldn't want to be without this book!!

The Complete Chondro is a must have period! I have most of those books but there are two I would like. As for the Guide to owning series I think they are the bottom of the barel when it comes to herp books.

I've got most (10 I think) of those books, but my favorite one of the bunch is the complete chondro - and I don't even have gtp's.

I've read it front to back twice. It's a good book about pythons, good book about snakes really, and you can learn a lot of things from the book. Even his perspective on things like forums and the current state of some things are really accurate and well put into words and is enjoyable and easy to read.

It's also an evil book that makes me really want to get 12 fancy GTP's. Well, that is, until he tries talks you out of getting them in the next section.

I should take a picture of some of my favorite books in my collection.
