About this Item

Near Fine in Wraps: just about perfect, but perhaps for the mildest rubbing and a price sticker affixed to the upper corner of the front panel. The binding remains perfectly secure; the text clean. No longer absolutely pristine, but remains virtually 'As New'. Not a remainder. NOT a Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 48pp. Liberally illustrated in color. (General Care and Maintenance Series: The Herpetocultural Library, Series 300). First Edition, unstated. Paperback: Staple-bound Wraps. Although somewhat small in size and length (especially at a first glance), this book is packed with great, surplus info about every factor that makes up corn snakes and their appearance. It first gives a short explanation of what a corn snake is and details about the general species, and then goes straight into what makes up and causes corn snakes' coloring and markings. This book explains all types of corn snake morphs, phases, mutations, changes, and more about how different-looking kinds of these snakes surface and how they occur. It even explains breeding techniques and possibilities for breeding such different phases, morphs, and mutations. This book doesn't provide much general info on the species, such as captive care, so I thus recommend it for people who already know the general care and maintenance of these snakes. Therefor, it's best for those who are interested in collecting and even breeding these colorful kinds and varieties of snakes, as it explains much of that subject. So altogether, I believe this book is one of the best for explaining it's subject clearly and thoroughly, and there aren't many books that could have explained it better.
