Look at these lovely fellows!
I saw in your other post you feed pinkies, I assume that’s a treat food? What does their regular diet look like. What a dream animal!

I have only fed pinkies once to them just to see because i have 3 chinese waterdragons and they won’t touch them, but they eat mainly dubia roaches, black crickets, morio worms, wax worms locusts and fruit beetle grubs, i usually keep well stocked and mix there food up so they dont get bored but dubia roaches and black crickets and locusts and morios the main staple of there diet the wax worms and fruit beetle grubs just treats cause the fatty content

:joy:, ano there a crazy species, definitely been my best purchase lol im really hoping i can breed them if they turn out to be male and female not even for the money just as there so hard to get here, i hada travel to a different country and bring 1 back in a bag there was only 3 i could find for sale in the uk at the time i bought them took me about 10hours travel all in but was definitely worth it

They are just sooo coool!! I really love seeing these guys. The pics of the two together are fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Did you get them both at the same time? Wondering if they’re territorial or happy to be together in groups.

Wow! You definitely went a long way to get Dilo and Puff! But I would probably do the same if I had the chance to have a couple of them. I do hope you have a male and female so that you will have a chance at hopefully successful breeding!

Too bad I’m not closer to your door step! I would be knocking! :joy:. I would LOVE to see Dilo and Puff!!! :joy:

I got them about a week apart but i was told the smaller 1 was 2-3 months i think it was younger to be honest because theres only supposed to be a 3-4 month age gap in them and i cant see it with the size difference my bigger 1 is definitely about 8 months i bought it from a guy on here whos a reputable breeder and seller, i dont know if the bigger 1 could have some australian genes still in it the fast its growing because i feed them the same and wether the younger 1 is just a slow grower i dunno but it baffles me the size difference but they do get on really well i watch them all day theres no aggression at all and if it ever changed i have another viv to move my smaller 1 but all good at the minute

:joy:, can you not get them where your based, theres still some countries who even have 1s that are full australian frilled dragons and have kept and bred them before australia banned imports of them and they get even bigger again lol there just a bit more expensive i would say so tho

And with them sharing the tank its just going to come down to when there older and i can sex them if its 2 males its a definite no no but il just have to wait and see because male and female can cohabit together ok but will breed in that case i would probly need to source another female or split them up from times so the female doesn’t get torcherd but there similar as to my 3 water dragons with living with others in the same viv i have 2 definite females with them and im hoping the other is a young male im just letting it grow on a bit and well see and that would be the perfect grouping because im gonna upgrade wiv to full 6ft or 7ft tall and same with the frilled dragons i wasted money buying the matching cabinets but they were ready made and i needed them within days but the size of vivs i need them custom built and there was a 3-4week turn around so i will just plan it out and upgrade 1 at a time
