BUT... The easiest to take care of (by far) is the Chinchilla, and the hamster, and Bufo Alvarius! </P><P>My ferrets are stinky lil mess makers, and their pee and poop smells strong, so I cannot slack on cleaning their cage!</P><P>The hedgehog is cute, BUT he is not too happy with being handled, (if I held him everyday religiously he would be more tolerable, but times do get busy!) And it sucks to get pooped on all the time, and poked!</P><P>The Chinchilla is very easy to take care of, They dont need alot, and are real skiddish, so they dont need to be bugged allday! Plus their poop is the easiest to clean, and it doesnt smell AT ALL!!!</P><P>The hamster only needs fresh food, water and bedding everyother day! </P><P>Same goes for the frogs, and my Bufo alvarius! They just need crickets, and mealworms for variety! some fresh water, and they are good to go! </P><P>I hope this info helps other people wanting a new pet!! Trust me, most of these pets are not for everyone... Thats actually how I got them... They were in the care of people that had either no time, or just didnt want them anymore!! So please do your research before purchasing your next pet!! Also look into adopting instead of buying from a breeder... as there are already tons of unwanted pets out there!!Thu, 11 Aug 2011 16:21:26 GMTjerret09http://board.smallanimalchannel.com/Topic7407-85-1.aspxHave you owned several types of small animal pets? If so, which one turned out to be the best pet for you? Why?Thu, 17 Apr 2008 15:46:53 GMTFerrets Moderator
