This may surprise some of you who have read my posts with the trials and anxiety and the thousand questions I have about Apollo my new beardie who I have had for exactly 2 weeks today. But I am thinking of getting a 2nd one!
So I want to know from multiple beardie owners, is it a good idea?
I work so I'm away from home for about 10 hours during the day on weekdays and I wonder about Apollo being bored and lonely. I leave the tv on for him and he can see it from his tank but still I wonder if he'd like company. I can't imagine, other than a slight financial increase, that taking care of 2 beardies can be that much harder than taking care of one. However I hear that beardies are solitary creatures and just fine alone, even prefer it. So any advice on whether they need company, whether its best to have them both while they're young and raise them together, 2 males vs. 2 females or one of each, etc...
