Hi there,
I have been begging my parents for ages to let me get a pet lizard and my mum has agreed that if I keep up my chores for the next year that she will talk my dad into letting me get one. I am an insane animal lover and have been obsessed with animals my entire life and this isn't just a one off. The only problem I have encountered is not knowing what species to get. I have limited room and I'd say lizards that bigger than a meter would probably end up being too big for the space that I have. Although I do like larger lizards over smaller ones. I'm also unsure of which lizards are easiest to keep for beginners as no one in my family has kept a lizard before although most of the caring will be up to me. I am aware that keeping lizards can get quite expensive and am aware that I will need to obtain a licence which is quite costly as well, so a lizard that is possibly on the lower price range would be more suitable to my budget. So what lizard would you suggest that would best fit my circumstances? The most important ones to me are space cost and level of difficulty rather than size preference.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: I forgot to mention that the lizard would preferable have to be a solitary lizard as I am not interested in breeding.
