Bearded Dragon is so much better! They are alot more friendly then skinks! And beardies and skinks get the same size its just that the beardie has alot more tail then a skink. My beardie rocks! awsome color

Bearded Dragons.
They're like tiny dogs.
And they do the cutest little dance right before they snuggle next to you in bed.

Bearded Dragons...they are like every other mass breed reptile in the world...theres too many of them and they are WAY TOO CHEAP which is what causes them to be sold by pet stores who have NO CLUE WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT, consequently they are kept by people who have NO IDEA HOW TO CARE FOR THEM...therefore they DIE BY THE MILLIONS EVERY YEAR. Bearded dragons (and green iguanas) symbolize everything that is wrong with the reptile trade.

I've never seen any larger than like 2 ft or less. Too small for my tastes. Glad you did your research...You won't end up like all the other retards I see on "bearded dragon" forums -

"Hi everyone...My bearded dragon lives in a 10 gallon in my basement and I feed him lots of iceberg lettuce like the pet store tells me too...does he need light? and why doesn't he move very much?"

ROFLMAO!!


im wanna go all out on this thing, including trips to the vet, i think most lizards like iguanas and beardies have internal parasites, when i had my iguana he grew slow, took im to the vet, found out he had round worm, they gave him medicine to kill the parasite. He took off like a rocket, he was 4foot 10lbs before my dad made me give him up and he wasent even done growing, vet said he was the best looking healthiest ig hed ever seen, thanks to my TLC!!! im gunna save alittle extra so i can have my beardie checked out by my vet just to be safe.

Seriously...don't laugh I'm not joking...thats really almost verbatim from a post I read on Kingsnake.com...unbelievable. But I'm glad to hear you're going to do it right...its encouraging.
