Hi guys, I was pondering over whether or not I would put my EWD outside into a permanent outdoor enclosure with a large pond, plenty of basking spots and hides and maybe some fish/turtles or another EWD.
I just have a few questions about doing this.

When I brought my EWD, Billy.. I was informed that I was allowed to keep ONE lizard without a license.. unless I sell her, which won't be happening.

We get our creatively named Murray darling python 'Murray' out for a cruise mst nights(when he hasn't just fed) and he likes to cruise around our shoulders or just chill out on the coffee table :lol:

I gave my water dragons about 30 blow flies and 20 crickets. I've never seen them go so nuts feeding :lol:

Very entertaining :D :D

Hi,
I just found some eggs maybe from an EWD out the back from work in Brisbane. They are in a shallow burrow about 100mm deep and uncovered, maybe the animal was disturbed and left. Any ideas of what they maybe? The eggs are about 25mm long and 15mm wide at the widest point and an oval shape...
Another visitor I've made friends with.

Hey Guys,
I have 3 Bearded Dragons that are roughly 4-6months old, two of them are significantly bigger than the little one. Yesterday the two bigger ones were bobbing heads and fighting, I watched the whole thing and I dont think it was to serious, im assuming it was either territorial...

hey all, i am looking for an eastern water dragon can anyone please help me out? im in ballarat but the pet shop down here ran out of ewd's so i'll have to go looking somewhere else. perhaps some pets shops in melbourne? i know theres a few good ones there. thanks in advance :)
im really looking for a young eastern water dragon with a snout to vent length of roughly 10cm doesnt have to be exact but about 4-7 months old. so if anyone is willing to sell one or knows of a good pet shops that would have them, then that would be great. p.s im in ballarat.
cheers.
what is your favorite? why? this is for 6 month eastern water dragons. I'm going to buy online tonight and want to make the best choice. i hear they love to dig and would you think a repti bark or critters crumble?
cheers in advance guys...
Hey all!
I have a blue tongue lizard, and every time i rub its head with my finger it cranes its head up like a dog does when it's getting pats, would it be reasonable to assume the lizard enjoys the attention or is it some other behavior? (the lizard is not trying to bite me)
thanks,
Mac
I have 1 eastern water dragon and his enclosure is heated by two 60w bayonet party lights (one red, one blue).
but at the top of the lights there is about 1cm of no paint on the globes an this means the incandecent light is coming out. my question is, wouldnt this be keeping him awake at night...
I would love to see pics of wild animals that people have caught on camera themselves all in the one spot, i will start as soon as i have some, so hopefully we can see some cool animals in their natural evironment and give people another reason to get outdoors!!!
Cheers Mo :D

I asked this in another thread but thought I would try to get some more suggestions. I'm not talking about in a colony where you can obviously just use fluon. I mean when you put them into the enclosure for your little critter to eat. I know some people use tongs which would be ideal but my...
