The Exotic Pet Lifetime Budget

Price an exotic pet for its whole life, at both ends of its lifespan: the adult's enclosure bought once, the lamps that wear out, a vet found before you need one, a reserve for one bad week, and the days you are away

ExoZoo's Pet Cost Calculator prices the first year of an exotic pet: setup plus twelve months of food, substrate, checkups and supplies. Our species reference, one click away, says a bearded dragon lives 10 to 14 years, a ball python 20 to 30 and an African grey 40 to 60. The two never meet, and the calculator files heat and UVB lamps under one-time equipment although they are replaced on a schedule for the animal's whole life. The Exotic Pet Lifetime Budget joins them up in seven steps. It works the lifetime at both ends of the lifespan, prices the enclosure for the adult so it is bought once, moves wear-out items into the running costs at the maker's interval, prices the vet and a reserve for one bad week from your own quotes, and prices the days you are away. For the worked bearded dragon, a $1,420 first year becomes $11,420 to $15,708 over its life, or $89.33 a month. Every price in it is an example for you to replace. Honest about what it is: a budget, not care or veterinary advice. It gives no feeding amounts, treatment or vaccination schedule, and your vet decides what your animal needs. Included: 24 printable pages with seven steps, a lifetime budget sheet, a wear-out log, a vet and reserve quotes sheet, an away-cover plan with a care card, a lifespan table for 19 species and a quickstart, plus a personalised sheet worked from the numbers you enter in our calculators.
