Customer Reviews

If you're getting into reptiles, this is a good place to start.

People planning on keeping lizards as pets should have this book. It gives you the general needs of reptiles and then delves deeper into the needs of desert, forest, tropical, and semi-aquatic species, from caging requirements and decorations, to foods and lighting.

Don't use it as your ONLY book

I was expecting something a little more in depth. The Uromastyx section should really not be trusted. I reccomend joining a mailing list for your particular species.

a must read for all saurion enthusiasts

lizard care from a to z is the most comprehensive and informative book on reptile care that i have read in a long time. a variety of species are covered in considerable depth. it also includes information on cage construction, and general rules of thumb for the care of most common (and many uncommon) species found in the pet industry. an absolute must-buy

Vey good

The vast majority of info in the book was 100% accurate. However, I disagree with several cage sizes he reccomends. His savvana cgae size is somewhat larger than most people use, and his statment that you could put 4 leopard geckos in a 10 gallon seemed a bit unreal. Most leo breeders say no more than 2 in a ten gallon. Otherwise, a prefect book

This is a great book for beginer-intermediate lizard keepers

I enjoyed this book due to its wide variety of infomation and all of the great illustrations and diagrams on how to acutally set up the terrarium for the lizards. I currently use several of the books ideas for my lizard collection. I give this book two thumbs up.
