In Reply to: tortoise trust master courses posted by Marie on April 18, 2001 at 10:54:43:

: I recently saw an ad for a master course being offered by Tortoise Trust that will be in my area. I was interested and went to the website. I hadn't realized how expensive this course would be. Could anyone who has attended one tell me what they thought of it. I am a very recent owner of a pair of Hermann's tortoises and I enjoy them very much but I am not a serious collector or breeder...yet!!! Thanks a lot to anyone who can answer my question.

I know nothing of this course but may I make a suggestion. If you don't already have one, buy a good book on tortoises. I recommend any of the books by Advanced Vivarium Systems. Philippe De Vosjoli wrote a book (The General Care and Maintenance of Popular Tortoises) Hermann's may be covered in it. He is a excellent writer on the care of Herps. A.V.S. books are sold in most reptile stores and online. The A.V.S. Herptoculture Library has books on the care, maintenance and breeding of just about every reptile kept as a pet today. I hope you don't mind me making this suggestion, happy herping,

Tim
