I want to hear from the people with pets like centipedes, prarie dogs, alligators, scorpions, vultures, octupus… What is taking care of your pet like?

    Blue tongue lizard - they’re pretty easy to take care of (so far - we’ve only had it about a month). We’re still learning what it likes to eat, but their diet is pretty varied, so there’s always an option in the fridge - strawberries, lettuce, banana, etc.

    It’s been pretty reclusive, and even a little cranky, since we brought it home. It’s started hissing at us when we try to pick it up. Talking to the people at the store, I think we need to “force” it to get used to being held, so that’ll be this weekend’s fun activity.

    That said, experiencing other domestic blue tongue lizards, they’re pretty chill pets.
