Some people feel queasy touching a reptile, such as a gecko or a snake. Now, imagine having a reptile for a pet.

If you are okay with it. you can choose from several small reptiles available such as lizards and frogs. There are many lizard species to choose from. These species do not require too much maintenance.

You might have to spend a small fortune for your pet’s house, though. After all, the enclosure requires a special setup for a reptile’s use. Your pet will need a tank, its size will depend on the adult size of the animal.

You will also need to create an ideal environment inside the tank that you will use for your pet. You also need to keep the enclosure warm since reptiles are cold-blooded.

Keep note that reptiles only eat live prey. This means that some people might have second thoughts about feeding a reptile. But if the people at home, especially the kids, won’t have any problem handling live crickets, then it might be a good decision to get a reptile for a pet.
