Frilled Dragon In-Depth Care Guide

[@acaughtpanda]

Best care video iv found so far! Thanks!

[@Dakotahblueexotics]

Heyyy first ad on an uncharted video congrats! Also damn you I was just about to film a frilled care guide 😂

[@unchartedwild2166]

Thank you! Ah yes now that I've made one the rest of the internet can relax and never need to make another one and solely rely on mine because I am master reptile keeper haha

[@saltwatersoul]

Such an awesome care video, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge on this species! Getting my first frilly tomorrow, I’m an advanced reptile keeper, but this species was always daunting for me. After watching this I realized I definitely handle this husbandry. ☺️👍🏻

14:46: No. UVB CFL's actually do give off a decent amount of UVB. It's not comparable to the peak output given of by mercury vapor bulbs, but it's pretty omnidirectional (unlike Hg bulbs) and, when coupled with a good reflector to concentrate the light onto a baking spot, can exceed a Ferguson zone of 2 at a distance of about 10 in. This should be adequate for most baking species. Definitely get the highest output CFL you can, but they're completely serviceable for 120 gal or small (assuming the animal comes to the baking site frequently). Also, if you have more than a couple bulbs running at any given time, get a UVB meter or Ferguson index meter (i.e. a UVB meter with filters that mainly pass the short wave UVA and long wave UVB responsible for D3 synthesis). You'll find that most (but not all) brands continue outputting at least 50% of their starting UVB for well over a year which can save on bulb replacement cost. Do stay away from LED UVB. As of 2022 when I last investigated this, the bulbs I got started off almost dangerously bright, but degraded to almost undetectable levels in the span of 2 to 4 months.

Got mine today, first frilled but not first reptile. Great video.

Good vid. Setting up my first frilled cage. Lots of useful info.

I got a frilly yesterday as an early graduation present and this is my first reptile so I'm trying my hardest to take care of my baby. I haven't seen it drink water out of it's bowl and I'm worried it's not drinking. It eats just fine though. I've seen 3 vids and I can definitely say I trust your vid the most and I have thing written down. What I'm worried over is it getting bigger and the cost of things when I need them. Thanks so much for this video.

[@unchartedwild2166]

Yes this is not a good gift lizard. If your frillie doesn't drink from the bowl don't worry, just mist them once a day and that should be good. Frillies take a bit to settle in. As long as it's eating and you have the right UV light then those are the most important steps for them in the beginning

[@flamingosama8060]

@@unchartedwild2166 thanks man, I keep the UV on the entire cage and Basking light on one side opposite of where I feed and put it's water at. I'm feeding crickets as of right now until it gets a bit bigger. I'm definitely subbing for the info on other animals as well. Thanks for everything. I've also got a heating pad on the side where it vibes on the tree I gave it.

[@unchartedwild2166]

@@flamingosama8060 No problem! Be sure to keep researching

[@7eitgeist]

I've had my Australian Kimberley Frill-Necked Lizard for a few months now and your video has helped me immensely. Cheers mate!

[@witheredbonnieanimations8047]

THANKS FOR THIS VID I'm planning on getting a frilled dragon this will probably help

[@unchartedwild2166]

Glad to assist!

[@cershashearman5495]

If you have the room, a shower cubicle (adapted) would make a brilliant enclosure. I can't remember the guys name now but I saw a reptile collector who had done this and it looked amazing and they don't cost that much in comparison to ready made enclosures 👍

[@unchartedwild2166]

That's a good idea!

[@AngelicaMaysVlog]

Useful one thank you . Now i want one ❤️❤️❤️

[@measures_of_distance]

Good vid thanks! I was misting one and I think it got a fungal infection on it's frill so now I syringe water them

[@xxxt3ntac1on8]

frilled dragons are tiny versions of dilophosaurus 🤩

[@witheredbonnieanimations8047]

YES THEY ARE 🤩

[@ahappyimago]

Love this lizard. Good job!

[@unchartedwild2166]

Thank you!

[@Kitsune1989]

I use a 8x8x6 grow tent. Cheap online used, and effective to keep temps and humidity stable.

[@saltwatersoul]

How do you use lighting on a tent?

[@amazingaquaticsandexotics3030]

awesome vid

[@daniellopezdelgado4155]

Awesome! you really helped me to understand a bit more the proper care to these animals. For basking Im gonna try Arcadia DH Projector 50w for my 120x60x120cm cage combined with T5 and Led, have you tried it? You earned a subscriber! keep showing these f dragons!

[@unchartedwild2166]

Thank you! Never tried those but if it gets the right temps should be good!

[@nicolerok9100]

My first reptile was a corn snake and I have to say I’ve been obsessed since! Now I have 3 snakes , a blue tongued skink and looking to get a frilly!

I am planning to get one and name him/her 'Spitter' but I am getting mine from the vivarium which is a pet store but I think they do a much better job than petco. Your thoughts?

[@calliemorgan7786]

Have a 3 year old female frilly. She’s a cross between Indonesian and Australian. Got her from a trusted crested breeder at an expo. Captive bred and has been kept as a pet all her life, looking to upgrade her to a larger tank with possibly a small water pond. She keeps shedding so we’re worried she’s not getting enough humidity/water

[@fazercraig9652]

There is no such thing they are endemic to Australia and papa new guinea. They are just farmed in Indonesia lol! That's like me farming black widows and calling them English black widows.

I just recently got an Indonesian real dragon she is or he is in a 4x2x4 reptile enclosure is that big enough for one dragon plus do they need a misting system installed

[@lizardal3377]

Do you think you could do a small water section in the tank with live plants in the water and a filter

[@jessiefranklin9318]

Was thinking about getting a male and using zen habitats 4x2x4 enclosure. (Dbcb Exotics)

[@unchartedwild2166]

He's definitely the person to check with on that

[@nicholasgarza8223]

I have seen Australian frilled dragons up to 2000 dollars

[@kaden9095]

I want one but my local pet store has one for $800 and I found some babies online for $250 I might get one idk. Thanks this video was helpful btw.
