I am thinking about getting my son a uromastyx. He first seen them at his doctor's office. When he was younger he called them dinosaurs.



I will be the primary caregiver to the lizard as my son is only 5. Could anyone give any good websites or books to check out before I buy one? Also where I can find them. I have found them in a local petstore. $80 each. Doesn't seem too bad. Although it is the first time I've seen one outside of the doctor's office.



I would like to learn what I can about keeping these. I have experience with snakes, but not lizards.



Thanks



Jennifer
