A bearded dragon is an amazing pet. they are low maintence, feed and water them daily, clean the cage every couple days to get rid of all uneaten food, and they actually like to cuddle. their main food is crickets, but they can be veggitarians. they are trainable, and can be very funny to watch. they hide when they get tired, can run very fast, but you can make a leash, and jump pretty well. they have sharp claws, but they can be cut, and if you get a female and a male, once they are old enough, the male will dance for the female. i "dragon-sat" one for a friend once, my stupid dog wouldn't leave her side unless forced to. she had even the people afraid of lizards holding her. they're fun!!!!!
