Default The Leopard Gecko: An Owner's Guide to a Happy Healthy Pet

This price is valid only online at Petco.com. Not available in stores at this price. For local in-store prices, please call your favorite Petco Store.At last, a book about geckos that emphasizes total care and companionship! You'll not only learn about how to choose the right leopard gecko for you, but also how to make lizard-keeping an enjoyable, educational experience for you and your family. This book explores appropriate housing for geckos, how to feed geckos and what you can do to keep your lizard in the best of health.A reptile expert has written The Leopard Gecko, and it includes a unique discussion of the variations of leopard geckos and the history of the gecko.Best of all, the book is filled with color photos, info-packed sidebars and fun facts to make caring for your pet lizard easy and enjoyable.
Customer Review: Extremely basic book for the beginner
I found this book to be a useful resource for general knowledge, but it lacked lots of important information that is needed to properly keep leopard geckos. The author's style of writing is refreshingly free of overly technical terms and "scientific" language, so this book would be appropriate for younger keepers or those who want only the most elementary information. The book make numerous glaring ommissions on proper care though, while adding extraneous information that does little to help. An example of this is the 3 page discussion on types of heaters that never even mentions at what temperature geckos should be kept. Overall, it's not a bad book but it was frustrating for me to try and find detailed technical information that simply was not included. Although it does well to introduce leopard geckos to the novice, this book is definitely not a stand alone resource for the serious keeper.
Customer Review: Good book but Leopard Gecko Manual is a better choice
I think this book worth the money. If you can, buy it and buy the Leopard Gecko Manual too. If you must pick up just one, LGM is a better choice. You will find more information on that book


Buy now on Amazon...
