Hey all,
looking to get a reptile in the near future and wondering what is the easiest for beginners - I'm tossing up between a bearded dragon, or some sort of snake. Not incredibly well versed however so I am open suggestion!
I want to be able to handle my baby to some extent (but also have no intention of forcing that, just something to keep in mind in terms of what I'm looking for).
Also don't have copious amounts of money - is a snake or a lizard going to be more expensive? In regards to long term care, feeding etc. (Excluding initial set up costs, which I'm prepared to have set me back a pretty penny).
Also just, is it easier to have a lizard or a snake! I've heard a snake is a lot lower maintenance bc it feeds only once or twice a week.
I've done a fair bit of research on beardies and think thats what direction I want to go but looking for more experienced opinions
