i think buying would be easyer and wouldnt take as long..but ether way would be fine. and yes WDs do eat fruit and veg, they love strawberry, kewi fruit, carrot, banana, letise...stuff like that, if you look on the net theres loads sites that list all the food they can eat, they can eat all the same salad as iguaners can. mine wont eat fruit or veg lol but my friend givs her WD rsaberrys and strawberrys and he loves them!

sorry i forgot to add, u probably no but encase u dont, dont feed then fruit and veg insted ov crikets, fruit and veg is only somthing like 10% of there diet, could b less, if you only feed then it they will become poorly!! just encase u didnt no :)

It’s your decision mate, if you have the money go for it, but you know they can be very expensive, and buildin it yoursen can be more convenient

Like Saf said, It would be easier to go and buy one, but it is cheaper to build one. It just depends if you feel liking putting your time into building one. My husband built ours for like $80 and it is 6’2"H 3’2"W 3’2" L. Also here is something that I got from a care sheet on their feedings: Crickets, mealworms (normal size, jumbo and super), waxworms, and earthworms, grasshoppers, butterworms, locusts, some people try small feeder fish like goldfish, and you may also want to offer a little bit of finely shredded veggies and fruit ( if your dragon will eat veggies this should make up about 10% to 15% of their diet)

Building one wuld be cheaper and u can customize it inn any way u want! buying one u can have a garuntee that it will last and might actually be safer then a home made viv. i have never seen a dragon eat friuts but trigger my little runaway sometimes ate lettuce. hope i waz help.

i think that building would be a lot cheeper, cause today i went to home depo and got all the wood and mesh that i needed for my new enclosure and that was only like $60.00 and the tank that i bought for my dragons when i first got them was like 90.00 bucks, so building is way cheeper and better because you arent limited at what you can do.

i can actually get both of my aussies to eat collered, mustered, and turnip greenes, and they will also eat feeder fosh if they are small enough, havnt tried pinkies yet though, i think i might do that soon....
