A healthier reptile would be a blue tongue skink. They reach a good size, are reportedly friendly, and have an easier diet, but require a larger cage. They also have a longer lifespan than dragons. Right now BTS are not being over-bred so you should be able to get a healthy one who should live within its lifespan, 10+ years. I asked my vet about them and she said the ones she saw were friendly and healthier than the dragons she treats.
