Torn between two animals!

Okay. I'm totally torn between a Russian Tortoise or a Red Italian Leatherback Bearded Dragon. The pro for the RT are a relatively smaller size & the con is that its a lot of money upfront. The BD pros are that its a lot less upfront, they're very social & are simple to care for, the only con is that I'm running low on space in my room. My parents keep badgering me for what I want for Christmas so I'm thinking a 360, an RT or BD, & possibly a snake rack. If I go with the BD it's a lot better on them financially which I like. Also, as you can see the BD has more cons than the RT. Please give me your opinions before too long! :confused:

Ive never really interacted with a beardy or tortoise lol. I like the look of beardies though. they seem friendly with cool personalities. Id go for the snake rack... And some snakes to fill it lol!

I like the idea Mike but the rack alone will probably cost 200 big ones, & then however much per snake I want. If I were to go this route, what rack & what snakes would you put in it? I've got two balls already, so I'm thinking of getting a 4 slot rack. Throw me some morphs!

tortoises are beyond cute

I say rack as well. You can always get a bd or tort later on. This way you'll have a couple or more slots for more snakes. Yellow bellies are pretty cheap these days. Orange hypos too.

beards poop alot and it stinks so dam bad

A rack and a lesser. ;) Or a pinstripe. BELs and/or jigsaws would then be in your future.

I used to be so in to BELs now I'm just like "meh." So I think I'll try and get a female pinstripe, make some jigsaws in a few years. What rack do you recommend? Good breeder?

for a rack it depends on budget but for you with only a few animals....AP or reptile basics

dragons can be expensive to feed. I found out the hard way I had a lil one & it was costing me $30 a week in crickets. just my .02 worth.
