Yeah, I understand. Right now i have 5 snakes and a tarantula. I've cared for more than that however. I know how much attention lizards need compared to snakes and that they are much faster. What I meant, by intermediate keeper, is being able to manipulate an enviroment to meet an animals needs. I've since decided to either get a steppe runner or just stick to snakes for now. I'm really more of a snake person but I would like a lizard since they are more personable. The things I am looking for in a lizard is it being diurnal, active, handleable, and strictly instectivorous.Thanks!
