If so, I'm looking for some background info on keeping a bearded dragon.

Dave speak to this man, he got one. http://www.essexhertsmtb.co.uk/member456.html

I had one for about 8 years sadly he passed away, they are easier to keep / clean and look after than a goldfish gonna get another one soon

Thanks for the info.
What do you do when you go away on holiday for a few weeks? We put the dog in the kennels, not sure about a lizard?
Do you have to get timers for the lights etc?

Yes get timer for lights and the heat lamp on thermostat anyway and just have to get someone to feed it box o locusts and fresh lettuce and or cucumber Apple any like that no iceberg lettuce is like crack to a lizard

OK thanks. I'm taking my son (its him that wants one) to SeaPets in Colchester on Monday for a fact finding mission.

Hi ,had amonitor lizard for years -Alex. 2.5 fwwt when died . Buried in the garden. My sun had a monitor as well but had to get rid of it as had a baby. He also has a dragon and had it for years sytill going strong . easy to keep .Pet shops take them in and look after when on holiday . not to expensive.
Enjoy it .

Ditto to what bob says easy to keep and a lot of fun if handle them from young they become very friendly to being handled
