 Female Frilled dragon sizing

My New Guinea Frilled Dragon is one and a half years old. I believe she is a female, right now she is about 15 inches. Is this normal? If she is not normal size what is?

That is about normal size. Females get about 18-20 inches long. Females won’t reach there full size till there about 2 years old or a little older. It also depends on what size cage you have her in.

Currently she is in a 65 High cage, During the summer I plan to make a pet room in my basement where I plan to house her with another female and a male in a 6ft tall, 4ft wide, 4ft long encloser. I was just wondering what wattage bulb I would need to heat that?

Hi, one of my frilled dragons is a female and is 14 months old and is only 13 1/2 inches. so 15 inches is normal. Just like humans different frilled go at different rates. as long as she isn’t too skinny, is eating, and you cant see any hip bones poking through than there isn’t a problem. and as for wattage...alot lol you would need multiple bulbs. depends of room temp and what not. id wait until you set it up and experiment with what works.

I hear that it is only the Aussie males that can grow 3 feet and NG males only get about 2 feet.
Is this true?
