Reptiles

Well, I thought I'd come on here and ask.

We are considering a reptile, my OH loves them and over the years he has allowed me many furry things. So I thought I'd get him a reptile. He has always wanted one, we have just never had the wherewithall to get one.

Now we have, and I know my son would love it too, so would I to be honest.

I know there is a rescue society a few miles away so we would be going there. But I'm not sure how to start. How much are the vivariums, food etc? My brother had a tarantula many moons ago but I can't remember much about it.

just remember iguana's grow very large so you have to ask yourself how much space you have for one.
