RESOURCE LINKS

 

Do NOT allow yourself to think you have a handle on caring for your reptile with one of those 10 second reads that are found throughout the web.  But I have to say, sifting through the crap to find an excellent source of material is time consuming and frustrating.  For some species the information is slim to almost non existent, on others there is a wealth of information and knowledge.  This page will be forever ongoing as I find the resources out there.  I sure would appreciate some help.  capturemymind1@aol.com 

Secondly, forget 90% of what you have read here and go listen to the experts!  Take a little of me, mixed with a great portion of their advice and knowledge.
