5 Great Alternatives to Bearded Dragons
by Gary Rolfe on in Bearded Dragons Lizards
Bearded dragons are great, that’s why they’re easily the most popular pet lizard around today. However, they’re not the only lizards available. I’ve listed a few of my favourite alternatives to bearded dragons below, but I have left a space for your suggestion at the bottom!
1. Uromastyx
Uromatyxs might not have the looks but they make up for it in personality! If you’re squeamish about feeding live insects, these herbivorous lizards should be right up your street.
2. Blue-tongued Skink
With a bright blue tongue and lovable character, blue-tongued skinks are a great choice for those who like their lizards laid back and chilled out.
3. Spiny-tailed Monitor Lizard
Fancy your own miniature dinosaur look-a-like? These guys are cousins of the legendary Komodo Dragon and make great pets.
4. Chinese Water Dragon
Chinese water dragons need a wetter setup than bearded dragons, but they’re worth the effort! Bright green and lively, they make a great showpiece.
