Very nice mate,my two sons keep pestering me about getting a couple of dragons but am worried about how much hassle they are to keep

cheeky dog

how much was the tank?

turbo_3dr_tommy

tank with heat lamp with thermostat, UV light, bits of tree water bowl and chippings basically reay to go wasjust over Ł300 mate

cheeky dog

wow that aint bad, no where near as expensive as a marine fish tank.

might look into this myelf

gramsey

do you find they drink from still water? usually they wont and you have to teach them. You can sex them yourself when they are 3 months old by lifting their tail from behind and looking out for 1 or 2 lumps near the base of the tail where they poo. also the males have a few semetrical dimples under both their rear legs

best go to reptile specialist like this http://www.britnett-carver2.co.uk/c2c/

cheeky dog

nice one dude

mad dog younge

if you want them sexing .i can do that for you .i use to breed them .done it for about 15 years

turbo_3dr_tommy

cheers dude they have been sexed altho they said they are only 90% sure as they are still young

Maria.

Mine would never drink from water, so used to 'spray' them with a water mist a few times a day

turbo_3dr_tommy

I'm also doing this, its quite funny watching lick the water off each other lol

turbo_3dr_tommy

so if they have one or two lumps this means they are male ?? and females have none ???

ive had mine for 4 years now! hes just over 18", i have never seen him drink,(still put fresh water in every other day) and ive never sprayed him, heard its bad for the skin! not sure how true tho! they get there fluid from there food, best thing is to get them eating veg when there young,saves you ŁŁŁŁ, he loves wax worn, he goes nuts even when he see's the yellow tub they come in (start head butting the glass trying to gey at them,hehe!)
i think i paid bout Ł250 for the set up and gizmo (lizzard) and after a 6-8 month i could take the tank back for a bigger one and he would take the price i paid for the small tank off the bigger one!

They look quite big for 10 weeks?

My mate keeps 2 and has had various numbers over the last 7 years. They are usually quite quiet when let out but i have seen some people have theirs climbing curtains and all sorts
