Beardies are a bit more maintanance than a Leo or crestie. The veggies, the large amount of food they eat, special lighting, high temps, and big poops you've gotta clean daily.
I never recommend beardies for beginner people or people that don't want to spend alot of time on an animal. They are great animals as far as handelability, but they get large, and need special expensive things. Secondly for people that don't want to spend alot of time I thoroughly encourage no pets. But if anything I'd recommend a crested or a Leo.
Cresties don't need anything in particular special except for Repashy. Leo's need heat, and crickets. And I personally have never met a mean crested or Leo. Even in "mating frustration".
