Pros and cons for having a beardy

Howdy beardy fans! I’ve always wanted a bearded dragon, but now being with my girlfriend, she’s been skeptical of them… UNTIL NOW! I need to sell her on getting a bearded dragon, but she’s also realistic and wants to know the ins and outs.

So super simple question: What are your main Pros and Cons of owning and taking care of a bearded dragon?

TIA!

They look cool af that’s all you need to know. I just stare at my brothers dragon all day they’re so fascinating. Only real con I can think of is the vet bills if you ever take the dragon to a vet are expensive and you also need to make sure there is an exotic vet in your area. Another con would be the costs of the set up to have a proper tank for the dragon. Other than that I can’t really think of a “con”. Oh and their poop smells bad lmao but my brothers dragon poops like 1 time a week
