Make sure not to have a male and female pet rocks together or you with end up with pebbles all over your house.
-
Take one from the wild, and if you keep you're pet rock in a cage remember to take him out and throw him around once in a while.

a pet rock is better bought when it is still a pebble that way you can raise it the right way so it wont fight the other rocks after you have to let it go , after the men with the white jackets come to your home and put you in a padded room and you can have fun in jumping from wall to wall.

I would try a shelter. It always feels better to rescue a neglected rock, and provide a good home. Capturing one from the wild could cause many problems, and getting one from a breeder may be expensive! They are pretty low maintenance in general. Sometimes they like to be shined, or rolled down a hill. Maybe see about getting some sand or dirt for it to sleep in.

best 2 get one from the wild so that you can fully experience the thrills of having a rock pet. they have a very vearying lifespan (3seconds to 3.7 million years) and whatever you do DONT PUT TWO MALES IN THE SAME CAGE for the same reason as why you whouldn't have 2 male hamsters in a cage

I prefer Pet Rocks that are from the wild. Sure they can be a little more jagged and rough, but they can be so beautiful! Domesticated ones are too mute, and dull for my taste. As far as I know, they just like to hang out in their place and star out at the world. Except, because mine is wild, it likes to be thrown around a bit. Keeps it on it's toes...

I would get one that's already domesticated - you don't want to experience the house training process. There's nothing worse than finding that your pet rock enjoys unsupervised flying - I understand that wild ones have a taste for glass and porcelain.

just remember, no matter what you do, don't feed them after midnight.
