Hi folks,
After weeks of speaking to pet shop owners and trying to work out if they really know what they are talking about or not, i decided this was the way to go. Im trying to decide whether to buy a Beardie or a Chameleon. Have been researching both. Pros: chameleon.. Not demanding on handling time, so working all day is not a big problem as far as i can tell, beautiful looking creature but...CONS: not much fun by all accounts, delicate, boring, slow. etc
Other option is obviously a beardie (otherwise i wouldn't be here) Again, seem to have a better reputation for being a fun pet, again beautiful creature, hardier...ah..you know all this..im the one looking for advice.
Any comments one way or another would be greatly appreciated. At the moment the Beardie is ahead by a hair, only thing holding me back is that if I am working all day, is he going to loose out by not being handled apart from only in evenings etc.
Look forward to hearing from you. Iain.
PS. I have had geckos before so i know the basics (sort of).
