Good Books?

I'm hopeing to start a Ball python breeding project in about 2 years. Figure if I can't afford to get albino and piebald Ball's I'd try my hand and breeding them myself. I don't have any intention in starting over the next year but I would still like to start gaining some knowledge on the proper way to breed. Burmation periods, incubation periods, what to do when and how. So I figured I'd pick up a few books and go from there and pick the brains of people here when I got stuck. But I'm not sure what is a good book to start with, any suggestions?

What he said.
I have it, and don't bother spending your money on ANYTHING else. In this neat little 2 video set, Dan and Collette Sutherland (with Dr. Mark Sewards forwards) cover ANYTHING you would ever need to know about breeding balls, with some neat graphs and charts too!. Go to www.ballpython.com and check it out. It's money well spent.

Anyone know where I can pick up this video in Canada? I hate getting bent over at the border for dutie charges. I checked Chapters but didn't have any luck.

I'm thinking of selling mine actually. Send me a PM and I'll give you the details.

Other than Trevor up there, the ONLY place you can buy this video is the Sutherlands website.
