Hey Wondering If You Could Answer Some Questions ?
Hey everyone looking to get a lizard... In my reptile room i have a really nice 4x2x2 enclosure that's just sitting there. its just a starter enclosure (I want a hatching that gets BIG)... lol only about any where from 2-6 Feet nothing bigger. I was checking out a few and was wondering what you think ?
Sav Monitor or a Blue Tongue Skink ?? These 2 have caught my attention. But the thing is i have heard some bad stuff like bad temperaments!!! i have a 4 year old that loves being in my rep room and i wanna get something small so it will get use to being handled but i still get bad feed back!

Re: Hey Wondering If You Could Answer Some Questions ?
BTS is your answer. It's pretty simple.
Sav's are NOT an animal you get because you wish to interact with them on a "pet level".

I definitely wouldn't call iguanas or water dragons "basic." XD
Whatever you get, keep in mind it's not a play toy for a four year old. That's fine if you want your son to handle it on occassion, but it should only be done properly under close supervision.

Re: Hey Wondering If You Could Answer Some Questions ?
Speaking from painful experiance DO NOT GET A MONITOR if you have a child that wants to pet something. Monitors are awesome. But they can just about take your thumb off if they wanted to. A bts is pretty, and i hear, easy to handle.

BTS all the way. My 6yr old has one and he takes care of it 90% by himself. I supervise but its all him.
