default first reptile help

Post by jbgky on June 15th 2011, 7:37 pm

So i'm brand new to reptiles. I do have a White's Tree Frog, i've had for about 2 weeks now. Anyway I need advice on what to start with.

·I'm probabley looking for a lizard, as I do have a very small fear/distrust for snakes even though i do know better.
·I would like an animal that is easy and somewhat ok with being handled
·ease of care would be nice due to my first reptile
·and last but not least, i would prefer something that would live comfortable in a 30-40 gallon tank

please any and all advice and openions is greatly apreciated and welcomed!
also i know little to nothing about tanks/terrariums so help with that would be nice as well

For a first reptile I would suggest a bearded dragon. They are very docile. A bearded dragon would be comfortable in a 30-40 gallon. If you come out to the show on Sunday there will be many for sale from hatchlings to adults. Welcome to the forum!

I would suggest a well started hatchling or a juvenile. Look forward to seeing you on Sunday!
