Possibly true, but we have more "common" pets, so the argument only holds so much water.

Are lizards, and especially geckos, high maintenance?

Also, is it expensive to own one, in terms of food, housing, and any other related costs?
We give him 5-6 meal worms a day, change his water daily and have his lights on timers. He's very easy to take care of.

We probably spent 100 dollars all together (tank, lights, substrate, hiding places, dishes, extension cord, light timer) and he himself was 25.
