bearded dragon

Answer 2

i would not go with a ball python unless you are ready to take care of it. they can be very mischevious and get out of their cages. they can be easily scared and could bite. the ounger you get it the better your chances are of having it be non agressive. you have to handle it at least once daily. the more the better. at first they are small and eat rodents but once they are large they eat rats and rabbits. if you have cats or small dogs they could also be in danger as well as infants. you can never leave a infant and a python alone.

if treated right and cared for they can be great pets. but with age their smell receptors start fading as well as their sight and tend to become agressive. not all become agressive but most do, this usually tends to happen after they reach 12-14 feet. because of how large they can become you have to make sure that you will be able to accomidate it at it's full size.

if you really liked the bearded dragon get another one. they each have differnt persionalities, so i do not think it will remind you of your old one too much. and they have differnt sub species with differnt coloration so you can get one that dosen't look like your old one.

Answer 3

well if your not ready for another beardie then don't get one for your own sakes

do not get a ball python for your first snake as they are a pain to feed

if you after a lizard research some geckos and anoles

but if your after a snake go for a corn snake

do some research on some beginner reptiles

:)

Answer 4

i think ball pythons make better pets because u can hold it and carry it arround ur house also it amazing to see it feed

Answer 5

well if you get another bearded dragon you might be reminded to much about your old one so get a ball python.  i also recommend leopard geckos because they are easy to take care of and they can live for a long time.
