Finger Monkeys or Pygmy Marmosets as Pets. Including information on baby finger monkeys, finger monkey adoption, cage setup, breeding, colors, facts, food, diet, life span and size Paperback – July 29, 2015

Finally a book on these species of monkeys, been searching around on Amazon for quite awhile now. Although its a new book, but its still packed with essential information needed to get started on owning these monkeys as a pet.Highly Recommended!

As well as incomplete sentences. Lack of detail on topics leaves you wondering how to do some of the suggested care properly. Do water your money

This book repeats itself several times thru out it..not very informative..just gives the very basics over and over

In my opinion and from what I have read online, I found this book NOT informative! Wasted $.

It's hard to know how this book could be of any positive value, given that it's widely acknowledged by primate specialists, animal welfare specialists, and veterinarians that monkeys are not suitable animals to keep as pets. The book's description says that it includes information about "finger monkey adoption". "Adoption" tends to be euphemism that people who keep pet monkeys use to avoid mentioning the removal of a infant monkey from his or her mother - a step that is necessary in order for the monkey to become someone's pet, but is known to cause serious and lasting psychological and even physiological damage to the infant. This removal occurs far before the natural weaning age; often almost immediately after birth. Marmosets are not domesticated animals and do not have the traits that are needed to live good lives alongside human beings. A book like this, an "owner's guide" to keeping them as pets, is an awful thing, giving people who don't know any better the idea that it's a harmless and acceptable thing to keep a marmoset in the home.

The book was great thank you
