NSW licence class 2 needed i believe. Enclosure should allow for plenty of climbing room, with aout 60% humidity (i think, you'll need to look into that one). Otherwise i believe it's like other non-arid dragons. Give it a place to bask, a place to hide in the shade, some water to drink ( a small pond nevers goes to waste) and insects to eat. I've never owned one i admitt but i'd be suprised if they are difficult. I plan to get one actually.

Good luck

naah not in vic,or aus,angle heads are alot more common than boyds,hence the price of boyds juvies usuall starting at 700 odd dollars each,u can buy 7 angles for the same amount

I cant understand why anyone lives in victoria, no V.panoptes and no boyds forest dragons(to mention a few of many), what a hellish place to live

I guess atleast you have a nice climate down there

I am an ex Victorian and never ever want to go back even for a visit (been here since 82)
Queensland is Herp Heaven and more ...
It must be near impossible (and expensive) to keep and breed reptiles in the Victorian climate
and IMO the climate is not nice not very often anyway ... lol
