    when i had my water dragon, his name was Krazy
    And indeed he was.
    you couldnt give him enough room.
    i got to take him to the tub and let him swim around and run and play
    we had a grassy backyard i let him run around in(in a big pin, im not stupid about 12 foot by 30 foot)
    and he was happy as can be
    he HATED his cage.
    i did everything i could
    waterfall.
    treees.
    water.
    moss
    bark sometimes
    so untill he wasnt having it anymore and was clinging to the top of the wires on the cage top
    i would take him out and hed sit on my arm or hands and watch tv with the family.
    Water dragons are amazing.
    Im sure a few people out here are gonna say"NO! no being out of the cage a lot"
    oh well, its what he seemed to love

    I was after getting a Water Dragon and was wondering how you setup your Water Dragons enclosure?

    just some ideas,
    hard,twisty vines are great,its like a roller coaster for them.
    fake or live plants,I have a small (real) fern in a little pot for him.
    hiding caves,you can buy from a pet store
    fairly deep water bowl.make shure you clean it at least once a day especially if he has pooed in it.
    DONT forget a uva and uvb lamp! it helps them absorb the nutrients from their food.I have a fan forced one and he can climb on it cos the bulb and fan are covered with a built in protector.
