Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Reptile Medicine and Surgery
I have this book for myself. It is designed for veterinarians and veterinarian technicians. That means it is useful and has the information you are craving. It starts out with building and maintaining a successful practice then goes into biology and general husbandry including grief counseling for clients as well as into all the diseases and treatments known and also has a section on amphibians. It is also minty fresy having a copyright date of this year. After all only the latest info should be used when it comes to medicine and surgical techniques and the Frye book is too old. Reptile Medicine and Surgery is also a pulse pounding 1242 pages over 8.5 inches by just over 11 inches. The print is a little smaller also so they can fit more info per page! Copiously illustrated with color photographs and printed on slick paper! This book is so good that I even started selling it! The shipping costs alone is more than most little books cost! When it comes to the subject matter it isnt a matter of being able to afford this book. It is a matter of you cant afford not to get it!
