Ive got two specifically on Hermans & lots on med / general assorted torts but none on Margies - I'd probably get it for pictures alone lol

, as I know their care is similar if not identical!

There are a few books available in german about Marginatas.
Don't know if you read German, but you said you are keen on pictures

Not aware of any specific to this species written in English. However, I have been trying for years to get a friend of mine; Mike Hine, to write up his own experiences with this species, which date back to the early/mid 1970's.
His breeding group are established nearly Forty years, and he has bred from them most years. His experience and knowledge on this species represents an absolute goldmine of information, and along with his repeated success's with other Chelonian species represents a fantastic testament to a personal commitment with these animals.
