hey guys,
ive owned a pair of angle headed dragons for about 3 months, they have been good without problems until now. my girl is looking dehydrated and and hasnt been eating. she is alot less active than the boy. they are in a pretty big inclosure, its probably about a metre in lenth and 80 cm in height. theres no heating.
thanks in advance
 
it could be a number of things
1 temp should be about 22 - 26 deg not above 28deg (ambient temp)
2 spray them as sugested by the others
3 put some plants in ther enclosure to bost the humidity.
4 somtimes they just sulk
5 read the reserch paper from Marc Furbank ( google it)
 
you need heating, I'd say. not sure though, but thats probably it.

Heating is what they need and spray her with water every once in a while to keep her and him hydrated.

As Mic772 has said, temps need to be between 22-26ish and not much above 28 for any length of time.

With lower tmeps they will not be abe to appropriately digest there food and so can loose weight quickly, also keep in mind that these dragons are particularly known to sulk and in doing so can do themselves some longterm mischief.
 
Have they got areas to get out of sight as she could also be stressed.
Give the enclosure a good spray down as well.
 
yeah they have alot of places to hide at the top and bottom of the enclosure.
thanks guys
