frillies get up to 3 feet long and can wiegh up to six pounds //frillies are shy and stress easilyyet they make really good pets!cagin well for a full grown I would say nothing under 40 gallons/and you can give them there own room if you want to go that big! lighting and humidity and haet is so vary important heating should be no less than 75 degrees F. with spots for basking of over 100 degrees F,/lighting should be full spectrum!and humidity levels should be higher around 50 to 75%daily!they come from a forest region so make cage like that and you should be ok!hope this helps Chip!

the bigger you can go the beter, always use a viv thats tall, they like to be high, i have mine in a 4ftx5ft high viv, also i have the viv raised so when hes on hes branch he is the same hight as me when im standing in the room, im 6ft

i have never had an aggresive frilled dragon, the one i have now likes to show off hes frill but hes just playing, he would never bite.

my frilly loves roaches they are hes favourite, but i do feed him fluffs, hoppers and crickets

i think the secret to a healthy frilly is doing your best to make him happy, if hes happy hes healthy

I agree! the bigger the better/frillies come from forest regions believe it or not!and they will eat anything that will fit between there two eye lids!!! Mine ate a crawdad(crawfish)and all it did was made him bigger!frillies have been known to eat small fish up to 3 inches that i have seen!! there are so amazing!my frilly is one of my best friends he,s big and so tame that I can take him with me any where I go!do your research taking care of a frilly can be such a reward!mine plays peek a boo with me all the time ! eats from my hand/loves to hunt!you can see him inlook at this baby post!
