Nobbi dragons

[Strange1]

Hi all

Im considering buying some Nobbi Dragons (Or Lashtails whatever you want to call them ) but cant seem to find much info on them.

Can anyone tell me what kind of setup they require? How large they get (Ive heard they are small?) and how old they have to be to breed? Basically any info on them would be great

Thanks

Adam

nobbi's and lashtails are two different lizards.

you will find more info on lashtails then you will nobbi's.

lashtails are also known as jacky dragons or tree dragons. There is also a article on keeping jacky's in the next monitor mag which will be out shortly............its also written by me :lol:

No worries thanks
In the NSW license outline they are listed as Nobbi Lashtails, seperate from the Jacky Lashtails *shrugs*

Nobbi's are also referred to as Nobbi Lashtails. They are pretty much the same as Jacky's just a bit smaller. I used to keep one, fed him mainly on insects, occasionally he would take banana. Besides the banana he would only eat things that moved. They are an arboreal species and love to climb. Being a dragon they obviously require a UVB source. They also prefer to drink water by licking up droplets, so i gave him a bit of a spray now and then. Cool lizards..

i have been offered 3 ... 1 ,male and 2 females, not related, ready to breed soon, 9 months old.
for $200
is this a good deal?????
should i take it?
how much are they usually worth?

 

[MrBredli]

They are very rarely advertised for sale, but i'd say $200 for 3 is a good deal. I saw those ones advertised, just make sure you double check they are licensed.

[MrBredli]

Nobbi's have pink mouths and Jacky's have yellow mouths, if memory serves me correctly..

They don't always have red tails.

Mr bredli is right about the different mouth colours and jacky's get bigger then the nobbi's.
