Both are fantastic pets, however, the amount of work that come with them is much different. If you are new to reptiles as a hobby I highly suggest getting a Bearded Dragon. They are extremely docile, well handled and generally easy to take care of. They eat a simple diet of mainly crickets and veggies(greens), and their upkeep is minimal. Chameleons on the other hand require a lot of time and work to keep healthy and alive. They require a lot of humidity, which is hard to maintain as well as a much more varied diet, as well as a full spectrum of UV light. Most people who jump to Chameleons as their first reptile will unfortunately fail unless they have done a lot of research.

well a bearded dragon requires many things like crickets, log, a 40 gallon tank, water dish, Ubb lighting, and heat lighting. for the cockatails i will give you some questions.

How much money am I prepared to spend? While Cockatiels are not very expensive to purchase, they need sizable cages, and plenty of toys and other enrichment items. In addition, you will need to take your Cockatiel to the vet for annual exams.

How much time can I spend with my Cockatiel? Unless someone is at home most of the day, a single Cockatiel is likely to be lonely. Paired Cockatiels will need less attention, but you'll still have to give them daily attention and care.

Am I sensitive to noise and mess? Though Cockatiels are not extremely noisy, they will be vocal in the morning and evening, and can create big messes. If you're a neat freak or hate being woken early in the morning, a Cockatiel might not be right for you.

How long am I prepared to care for a pet? Because Cockatiels can live for upwards of twenty years, consider your dedication carefully before purchasing. If you are underage, consider who will care for your Cockatiel if you cannot keep it while at college.

While reading through this article, consider the care requirements of Cockatiels and whether you would be able to properly care for your Cockatiel for more than twenty years.
