I am torn.. Please help.. Advice needed.
Hey everyone,
My name is Mogavero I am seeking advice. I am having trouble deciding:
Do I adopt/buy a Benti Uromastyx OR a Leatherback Bearded Dragon?
My ideal situation is a lizard I can hold and them be tame. I hear conflicting information regarding the Uro being lovable/tamable. I am not a fan of buying crickets everyday. The leatherback is 4 months old. The Uro is 6 inches long but they don't know how old she is.. Any guesses on that?
Can anyone shed some light that owns one or both of these. I know and understand every lizard has different personalities.
So, who would you pick?

Get a beardie! Great lizards for experts and beginners. Their lovable attitudes will keep you entertained and will be a long time friend.

It really depends on what you want, both are fun pets, Uros eat veggies only, require high basking spots, large cages and grow pretty slow. Beardies eat tons of food in their first year (crickets, worms, dubias) some greens. As far as them being tame, you get out of them what you put into them. You really can't go wrong with either one IMO. Read multiple care sheets on each animal, look up caging requirements, tons of pictures online, scour other forums for info then make the best decision you can.
