Are bearded dragons and ball pythons good "beginner" pets? We don't think so! We chat all about why some reptiles are considered "beginner" and "advanced" and give our recommendations for the best first pet reptiles. Then we talk about our tips for bachelorette parties and hear about Lyssa's Bach Party in New Orleans!
