Hey everyone, I´m really excited to have a beardie in the near future! I have been doing a lot of research and all that good stuff....I should have my beardie by December.
I initially wanted a female (still do actually) but I came across some mixed answers that has me in this limbo....
I read somewhere that a male is better for a first time owner because with a female, I´d have to deal with a female laying infertil eggs, and it can cause health problems especially if I dont plan on breeding (I don´t plan to)
I read that males can become aggressive when wanting to mate, how aggressive can they get? would they still be able to be handled during this time?
I also read that males have more personality...how true is that? I also read that both male and female have their unique personalities...so it confuses me....
(Here´s the link I found about having a male over a female for first time owners https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110910042414AAuXFrR )
Any first time owners who had a female first?
What do you recommend? Should I stick to having a female, or should I go for the male? At the end of the day, I just want a healthy beardie, the sex ultimately doesnt matter, but some advice would be appreciated!
thank you so much!!
:mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Edit: another question just popped to mind....for a first time owner, is it best to buy a dragon that is already six months old, or can a two month old be okay?
Thank you again everyone!
