Hey all,
Last year I caught a little skink and brought it home to show my kids (8 & 7 yr old boys and my lil girl is 5). The boys promptly fell in love with him and begged to keep it. We went to the neighborhood petco, got an aquarium, heat lamp,and all the basics. The boys took great care of there new pet named flick (cause of his tongue....flick flick), watered him every day and fed him once a week. Well flick flopped yesterday and connor, the oldest boy is mortified. Seeing how well they took care of flick my wife and i decided to let the boys research a new lizard, and we (the boys and I) decided on a bearded lizard.
Before we get the newest addition to the family though I want to make sure we're prepared( i don't know who is more excited, the kids or me lol) so here i am. I seek the guidance of those more experienced in the raising of the mighty reptile known as Pogona Barbata. One thing i am strongly considering is picking a reptile with a bloodline suited for breeding and making a profitable hobby out of flicks misfortune.
Hello all, i hope to get to know some of you, and hopefully learn somthing along the way.
