What are the recommendations on the best match for a herp pet gift for a very young child (my grandson) ?
I'm thinking either a tree frog or a bluetongue or a breaded dragon (nice robust but very easy to tame, not aggressive once tamed and used to the owner's attentions and easy to handle and look after) for the child when he gets to about 3 yrs old.
Seeking your collective advice and any experience with children and frogs or lizards.
(A snake is out the question .... not that I've anything against snakes, the mother and grandmothers are scared witless of snakes.
