 Getting a Frilled lIzard I am wondering what I should get for her

She is coming tomorrow and I got the cage today it is a pretty big one I could put a picture up later if you want. I got some MV lights and I got a artificial ficus plant and I am getting a vine that should of come but didn’t. Should get anything else? I am getting the substrate. I could go out later and get some things because my Homework was light (just finished it). I am waiting for my parents to come home so I can go out with them. Before I go out and get things that may not be needed what would you all think I should get? I might get a climb vine to make sure I have a climbing thing. I just want to make sure that I have a good cage is a 29"L x 29"W x 4’H is that good. She is only about 12" at 9 months old.

You have a New Guinea Frilled Dragon! You would know if you have an Australian Frilled Dragon, they cost a lot more $$. They like being up in the branches. Here’s a pic of my cages

Just got her she can climb on the walls of the cage!!! I am so happy for her. I got a cage that is called reptilerium or something. It is on big apple herps. She can climb so well. she can climb the whole amount of the cage with a problem.

She has a brown coloring and is pretty good at climbing. I’ll post a picture later after I get her situated.

You have her in a reptarium... That isn’t to good as they need humidity, which can’t be achieved with a reptarium...

to be fair if he has a 50% humidity room for whatever reason then its fairly easy for him to manage it but if not then brien is right thats why reptariums only really work in the country of origin

We spray the tank alot to keep moisture. I know but heat from the lights do effect the humity, it is means alot. You should know that.

unless u live in a new universe I think you will find that lights destroy humidity not help it. Do you have a humidity gauge because maintaining humidity in an enclousure like that doesnt seem very likely. You should know that

If you have lights that are to hot and there is no way spraying your tank can help because it will just vaporize into the air. Lights do effect the humidity and might destroy it to. Also I am getting a humidity pad for her. I bought it from the same website big apple herps so it probably is designed for that type of tank. So the humidity will be fine because I spray here more than 3 times a day. If the humidity doesn’t work for that tank then we will get a new tank. Also if you did your research on tank glass tanks are bad for here because it causes her to frill at her self. Which I think you know make her have stress. I don’t want that for her it cause her to be skittish. You should know that. But you can disagree with me.
