What Next to Get

We have an adult corn and a young Ball Python already, but now are feeling the urge to get another reptile. We want something relatively docile and easy to handle, and something that doesn't need a huge enclosure. We were thinking leopard gecko or bearded dragon? We have studied care sheets on both. We like to handle our snakes daily, so what do people recommend? Open to ideas!

I like both honestly but for some reason I tend to go more for the gecko because I find they are so beautiful!!! I took care of my friends leo and I loved it!!!

I think it depends on how small of an enclosure you are thinking about. Bearded Dragons need larger enclosures than a Leo.

Re: What Next to Get?

Another quick question about geckos - are they ok on their own, or happier with a companion? I know you can't put 2 males together. I do have a 33 gallon tank empty...

They don't need any company. They would probably prefer it that way, but you can house multiple females together just fine.
