Horned Lizards

[varanio]

There are exceptions to every rule, some do live it out to have a decent life in captivity, but in all reality a large portion of the ones available die. Most because people are ill informed on how to keep them, and the other few because people have great intentions....but still fail because of the animals delicate state.

I agree. I think this is another one of those species that is best left to the professionals, or left in the wild where it belongs.

yes def. for a exp. keeper just cause i said one guy had his for that long i also have had a few die at the shop and im very good at what i do so on a scale of 1-10 (10 being very diff. to keep) i would say there a 9

Very good decision in my opinion. There are other great desert dwelling alternatives.
