Practical Reptile Keeping Magazine - What do you want to see included?

[9Red]

I'm interested to know what aspects of the magazine people find particularly useful/enjoyable and what people would like to see more of? You can vote for more than one choice.

Also does anybody have any specific ideas about articles they would particularly like to see inlcuded in future issues?

loving the genetics part of the mag!! Am SLOWLY getting to grips with the whole genetics thing so has been a great help and easy to read!! Otherwise am interseted in ''different or rare species'' if that could be convered Them knob-tailed geckos in this months were pretty cool!!

I would like to see foam background and viv enclosure tutorials which are really good.
Also what I would like to see much less of is an advert on nearly every other page, almost as bad as American reptile magazines.

aye but that keeps the cost down, hardly any ads means a much more expensive magazine.

Though I think having a few pages at the end totally full of ads and no ads until then, might make it less intrusive?

I don't really want to see leopard geckos and beardies, corn snakes and the same old things.

I think that it would be really good of there was every issue, a rare/less common species kept in captivity. Or something with a bit of mystery about it, if that makes sense?

Does anybody have any suggestions for specific species? I.e., something you've always been interested in but can't seem to find a good article on? I'd be interested to see pieces about blue-tailed and green tree monitors for one, and maybe some of the other chameleon species like parsons and pygmies.

I'd be really interested in Boelen's pythons, I know there not very often kept, but it would be really interesting to read about them

Like to see issues covered which for some, may appear contentious;
ie1. Hatchling Terrapin trade?
2. Tortoise Farms?
3. Reptile Farming in general?
4. Modern Reptile Keeping; a road to domestication?

i like it but as everyone says less adverts plz, every other page is full of adverts and it puts me off the mag to be honest i just flick thru and think "yeh more ads" and dont read it all as its just off putting realy

[louodge]

i would like to see
1. classifieds page.
2. the magazine in sections snakes/lizards/torts etc/inverts/anphibians etc etc etc
3. not less adverts but more content therefore it would not seem as add heavy to be fair the magazine is ok but theres loads of scope for improvement and 10 or so more pages of content would be a bonus
4. more interviews with breaders keepers and shops
5 how too's
6. a basic husbandry section
7. more Q,A
