Do you have any lenses already? Finding a camera to fit existing lenses can save money. I'd definitely get one that allows for interchangeable lenses so you can match to the type of shooting you're doing. If a DSLR is out of budget, maybe something like an Olympus OM-D E-M10 which is a nice small mirrorless camera. You can get it as a kit with a 14-42mm lens. Then you could get a 100-300mm lens to do some distance shots and switch between them. I like the Panasonic Lumix G II 100-300mm as a good budget friendly option with the Olympus.

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
