Swifts are not interactive pets for the most part. I am trying to breed certain kinds of indigenous lizards, and thought Blue Spinys would make good pets because of their size. Well, they don't. They are fast and bolt when I stick my hand in the tank, and these were cb and raised by me! They will tolerate my presence, but they are more like observational pets, and since I don't trust that the majority of people would house them properly, ie, LOTS of running room and LOTS of hides, I have decided not to breed them. I kept three females, and while I enjoy looking at them, they are not exactly the little buddies that my collareds, chuckwallas, and desert iguanas are.
