gecko or tree frog for a pet?

well i own two leopard geckos which are terrific pets!

although they are nocturno

( they sleep during the day and wake at night)

but a bearded dragon makes a great pet also

but between gecko or tree frog ill say GECKO!!

Talk to li'l nieces mommy. At 10 years old, you can be sure that it won't be her pet, but mom and/or dad's pet. Certain types of geckos can be handled occasionally, a frog shouldn't be handled at all (with your hands), so a gecko might be better. Frogs and geckos are both usually nocturnal, and will be sleeping during the day, so that might be kind of boring for her. I think a fish is probably a better pet just because they are cheap, easy, and more entertaining for a young girl.

Have you considered a hamster or guinea pig?

I even have 2 white's tree frogs, and that i think of they are astounding pets. They stay in slightly arboretum (for loss of a greater helpful be conscious) with plastic vegetation that they could climb, a warmth source, a water dish, thermometer and humidity gauge, and bedding. They consume stay crickets, and each now and then they're going to sing. they want sparkling water on a daily basis, and the water must be stale (i save mine in a sprig bottle and fill their water dish after washing it on a daily basis). I additionally save a numbe of stay crickets reachable, so which you ought to feed those too. And in case you have a trojan horse "component", you will ought to recover from it. desire that facilitates

gecko for sure i have 2 leopard geckos and 1 crested gecko best for beginners like a 10 year old that's when i got my first gecko it was a leopard gecko

leopard geckos a desert animals and crested are rainforest

id agree and go with the gecko but maybe talk to your niece and she if she wants something to handle i find the the bearded dragons are the best for that
