http://www.DadLabs.com – Your kids want a pet, but you don’t feel they’re quite ready for a cat or dog. How do you solve this parenting dilemma? In this episode of The Lab, the dads present The DadLabs Guide to Starter Pets. Learn about the benefits of pet ownership. What kinds of animals make great starter pets? Insects and bugs like butterflies and beetles are an option. Kids love fish. Rodents such as rats, gerbils, guinea pigs and hamsters also make good starter pets for children.

@zoocritter100 Have you had a turtle? I’m really excited because I’m getting to go to the pet store this weekend to look at them and have my parents learn a bit. We love Saint Bernards (we have 5)….but I really like turtles. Enjoy your guinea pigs, tell me how they are!
I’ve had almost every small animal there is. I’m getting 2 guinea pigs tonight!!!:D

Guinea pigs aren’t starter pets. Their fragile and shouldn’t be handled alone by small children. Get your very young child a dog!
@pokelover66544 Indeed. He was the best little pet ever.
R.I.P mr paws
@LisaMA Glad you had such a good experience. Ironically, the dwarf hamster that we used in this video, just passed away last week. Four years old. A beloved family pet. Headed to get a Guinea Pig tonight.
I chose gerbils for my kids first pets because they are not nocturnal like hamsters and are awake more often in the day so the kids can watch them play They are quieter than hamsters which is a huge plus. We’ve owned them for over a year now and so far it’s been a very good choice. They rarely bite (twice the whole time we had them) and the socialized fairly easily. They also are very good at recycling card board!
My uncle had a gerbil and the only problem he had was if you left a piece of clothing to close to the cage it woyld shred it to make bedding.
f**k you you kill anamels for food cute ones you b***h
Rats are the best of all pets by far i have them.
