In your opinion, which is better to get, a Bearded Dragon, or a Chameleon?

Question

Which one is easier to take care of?

Which one is funner to watch/hold?

Which one lets you hold it more often?

Which one is less expensive to care for?

Thanks

Answer 1

Easier to take care of - Beardies

Funner to watch - chameleons, especially when they eat, their tongue goes forever!!!!

Holding it? - beardies. Chameleons are like fish, made to watch, not touch. Get too stressed out.

Less expensive to care for - might be equal there. Unless you had a chameleon like mine that decided that crickets were too good for him so I had to find silk worms!!!!

Answer 2

CHAMELEON!

THERE SO COOL!

Answer 5

my friend has a bearded dragon that he loves

and he(my friend) is really lazy and seems to be able to do every thing for his pet

but then they can also get really big so at that point i'd say a chameleon just because they are a nicer size

Answer 6

Bearded Dragons all the way. Easier to take care of for sure.

Chameleons tend to stress out when you hold them. Beardies are one of the most docile lizard you can get. They are squirmy when they are younger, but when they get bigger they are really fun to have and handle. Mine likes to sit on my shoulder.

Beardies are also less expensive. They just need the proper lights, basking spot, and you are good to go.

Answer 8

For a beginner...Bearded Dragon. There are a variety of Chameleons available, which I would recommend researching AFTER you've owned a reptile for a good long time. I've made the mistake of buying a baby veiled ch. and I was too ignorant to maintain it. Now I've got a wide collection of herps , veiled included! Good luck!
