Venomous Snakes in Captivity - book

It is finally done and published.



There are actually two versions of the book. The original is full color. But because color publishing is very expensive, I created a more affordable black and white version. Same content, just no color on the interior.

147 pages
76 photographs

Table of Contents:

Disclaimer
1 Introduction
2 Considerations for Venomous Herpetoculture
3 Housing
4 Tools and Equipment
5 Handling, Maneuvering, & Restraining
6 Transportation
7 Common Mistakes
8 Tips and Tricks
9 Venom, Envenomation, & Antivenin
10 Emergency Agencies
11 U.S. Federal and State Agencies
12 Recommended Resources and Reading
Bibliography

Can copies be purchased directly from yourself? Perhaps a signed copy?

Ray,
Sorry that got screwed up. So far, that is the only shipping mishap. I will be glad when the shopping cart get done on my site and I can send them out myself. I like being in control of making sure everyone is taken care of. I finally have a couple boxes in stock. It just took a while since I had to pull money out of savings to do it. Either email me your address and I will ship you a replacement or if you will be at the Spartanberg Show I can give it to you then.
