frilled dragon

[pwerfulyifu]

so since im inheriting a super large bird cage that has a mesh divider in the middle. im thinking of putting my veiled on one side and a frilled dragon on the other. i read a little about them and they have really similar husbandry, except for the calcium dusting. other than that, they're both tree dwellers, mid 80s temp, like it really humid, drinks dripping water. so i dont see why not. i am going to pothos the hell out of the divider so they dont see each other. other than that i think its a done deal. plus i saw them on backwaterreptiles for $140. so its not really that expensive. any of you guys have or had a frilled dragon? those things are sick, they run on their two back legs. look like raptors. haha

EDIT: the frilled do need a higher temp. mid 90s, but this is an outdoor enclosure and cali summers do get pretty toasty.

Ive never owned a frilled dragon, but I took a vet tech class in highschool and the vet was a herp specialist, so I got to see alot. I have met a few of them, one of which I will never forget, because I think he was a spawn of Satan. This dude was MEAN MEAN MEAN. But I wish you luck. They are cool lizards, big heads and crazy eating habits.

Are you going to put a divider or something? And my friend has one it's not as mean as I thought jurrasic park always made me think they were venomous

Yeah there is already a mesh wall in the middle so they cant kill each other. And then im gonna pothos it so they wont see each other. Gonna be so sick

Lol like a raptor, god i love jurassic park Honestly I wouldn't house them together unless this cage is gigantor lol just because the frilled can get adventurous and figure his way around the divider if it isn't in place enough. Probably don't wanna see that fight loll would say if you can get another thing to put him in I would just do that so your chameleon can have all the space to itself. Just my thought, i don't know how long the pothos will take to really cover the entire screen so idk if you should risk it. But good luck with your frilled they are fun, my good friend has one lol they are also nuts

the new outdoor cage is going to be put in the new house that i will be moving in. but the new house is under remodeling at the moment. plus i wont put any animals in the cage until everything is done growing and set up correctly. but you're right maybe i should put like a tarp in the middle just in case the frillie tears open the pothos. but the worse that can happen is that they see each other. no body is gonna touch no body
