whats better to start with snake or lizard

[lizard_lover]

whats better to start with a snake (stimsons, childrens, spotted python) or lizard (pygmy mulga monitor, thick tailed gecko, something)

 

[grimbeny]

They r both easy starters lizards r a bit more work but if ur up for it, it shouldnt matter. I started with a bredli and she is definatly my favourite herp. Go with what u would like most.

Snakes are probably less work, seeing as they need to be fed (and hence poop) far less frequently than a lizard.

 

[mickousley]

lizards are great but more work

Your name suggests a lizard

What do YOU find most interesting? I've never kept any of those but from what I've read one of the pythons would be a little easier, but you should just go on what you really like..

me and my son started of with 3 blueys and now 3 snakes 1 diamond and 2 coastals they are all great but it is still your choice

yeah, as grimbeny said, 'go with what u would like the most'. Stimsons, childerens and spotteds are all great snakes to start with; easy.. -i'd probably get spotteds out of those. thick tails are pretty cool

 

[lizard_lover]

i dono i quite like both

 

[lizard_lover]

i know what lizards but what do juvinile snakes need

 

[Anthony88]

Get what you prefer the most. However i personally reckon snakes are easier to look after, like what mickously said.

 

[dazza74]

if you like both then buy 1 lizard and 1 snake
then your problem is solved

If you dont mind something that wont want to be handled definatly go for the gilleni, they are more work but they sure do make pythons look very boring(lucky my snakes cant hear).
