Does anyone know what qualifications are needed to become a Reptile/Amphibian vet? When I say vet I'm talking about the general sort that you take other animals to that give check-ups and stuff
Thanks
To be a herp certified vet you have to train along side another one (at Least here in the states from what I looked up). Although most exotic vets are not herp certified it's fairly difficult

In the UK I don't think there's anything to stop you practicing on exotics, provided you have your veterinary degree. However, I wish more vets there would admit they know virtually nothing about amphibians and stop treating them like reptiles.
