We are told to encourage our children in whatever interests them. My kid likes to catch lizards sooooo we got some cages to house them. If you like catching them then you will love keeping them.
They have been pretty good pets and are easy to handle, dont make noise or a mess and are cheap to feed.
My daughter does seem to have a special power over the lizards ands is able to "make them go to sleep". She turns them on thier back and rubs the belly a few times and they are rendered helpless. Strangest thing, they wont try to run off for quite a few minutes.
Here are some pics of her practicing the dark magic.
