Smile Rankins Dragons

Hi Guys

Been thinking of getting a few Rankins Dragons and was wondering if anyone knew if there was anything different to do for them as i would for a bearded dragon?

Muchos Gracias!!

cheers guys...the girlfriend had 2 desert iggs and they were soooo tame!! would almost get in a mood if she didnt take them outta the viv and let them crawl all over her! they would pick a boob each and just bask there!! im sooo confuzzled as to what to get...i like the mini-beardy thing...but the desert iggys look so different i think.

I'd go for a Desert Iggy, purely on the basis that everyone starts with a Beardie/Rankins or a Leo.

Welcome BTW John
