| | | | It's a handsome male. nice spikes too. Anyway you can feed it if you want. It is practicaly your pet if it lives in your backyard. I'd even set up a body of water for the beautiful dragon. Keep away from feeding it "too much" red meat. It "can" make them fat. (not that fat is a terribly bad thing) they love grapes and insecks. That one would even make fast work of mice. Just keep in mind if you feed it alot,,make sure you put up live food so he doesn't forget how to hunt. |

Water dragons usually live near water but because there a simply so many of them(quite possibly too many) they get forced into other areas. I recently had one move into my yard too.
Im fairly sure its illegal to feed them, but its not really going to hurt. I would just leave it to get its own food though if it was me. |
