southern angle headed dragon underweight

[greggles91]

he ate yesterday for the first time that i have seen he ate 4 meal worms but i had to put them in his mouth and he chewed and swallowed. so happy. he has come along way.

now i need to think of a name that suits him, any ideas?

Wooohooo good to hear mate! keep us posted with his/her recovery.

p.s waterfalls are a must in my opinion. i've had angle heads that have had a waterfall and loved it and i had to take it out for a week to fix the pump and they wouldn't touch any water at all from the bowl as soon as i put the waterfall back in and turned it on, all three of em literally bolted for it at the same time for a drink!!

also keeps a good humidity level.

Wow! Congratulations they are looking so much better! I had my fingers crossed for you but I didn't think you had much of a chance, with the neglect they endured there's no need for that, as a owner it is there responsibility to take care or these animals and if they can't then they so give back to breeder or find a saint like you well before they are on border line of death.

i put a waterfall in about 6 days ago and the female bolted over for a drink. the underweight male i have seen him drink from a bowl 2 days ago. he is looking more lively everyday and gets around the enclosure more and more.

what humidity level should i keep their enclosure at?

i will take in any reptile in need, no matter what is wrong with them.

i will update pics soon. still waiting for more plants to get delivered for their enclosure but its getting there.

I got an indoor plant watering kit from bunnings and bought some little irrigation fittings so I can set up a sprayer in the hotter months. It was only $49, runs on batteries and you can set it to spray as many or few times as you want and it will mist right down to a tenth of a second. Awesome idea for keeping humidity up and temperature down. I have spagnum moss over cocopeat as substrate. It is very clean and holds the humidity well.

Best of luck, btw I know this is already been said but the skinny one is a male, the one with more markings is female.

Awesome work mate. The enclosure looks great and the those dragons are cute.

thanks, since i upgraded the enclosure and this one is bigger i will need to get more plants so they can hide and feel safe. but i am really happy so far with how they are both going and the enclosure.
