Good to know. I should have known better though. I went through this with my fish. Cats and dogs are easier because everyone has them. But lizards and fish...different story. I actually had a friend with an iguana that I cared for as a teenager for a few months. She was the coolest, but he didn't care for her properly and she bit a chunk out of his face. When Sunny bit at me this morning I knew something was wrong. Luckily I have the background I do. But when I think about the people in my situation who go to a pet store with their three year old who wants a lizard and the pet store recommends a Beardie and then offers this kind of advice and then the Beardie gets aggressive and they just dump the poor thing...this has to happen and really, it upsets me. Pet stores have become more accountable over the past 20+ years about cats and dogs, but they still are not being held accountable about exotic pets and this is upsetting to me. I can only hope that groups like this help in that aspect.
