I would suggest that you put him/her in a smaller enclosure if you notice that its hard to catch the food easily, otherwise.. leave it alone. That enclosure will do well for a while. I don't know if you've been to Sundial's website, but its worth a look, www.sundialreptile.com, they have a super nice care sheet on frilleds, they are also very nice, knowledgeable people. Also, when you think of questions post them here. You can provide this lil one with many plants to hide in and around and for now you may want to just have the water container, you wouldn't want it to become too humid for the little one, also put a rock in the center of the water so he/she can get out easier. As this frilly is so small, make sure you make it drink daily once or more, eventually it will drink while soaking.. hopefully. They are usually very shy by nature, I hate to keep repeating that, but I feel its the most important part of learning to understand them. Their vision is incredible, they may get upset just watching TV, or being near a window that is open slightly, they fear birds and snakes. Feeding is so easy, they will eat most feeders, so keep plenty of calcium dusted small crickets, small supers, (true) minimealworms (www.mimimealworms.com) on hand until the size picks up, then work on adding roaches, mice and silkworms, to name a few other options, my frilled will not eat any veggies, fruits or wax worms, just regular feeders, but yours is very young so try it, good luck there. When thinking of adult enclosures, its probably best to build something, check online for cage plans that suit your budget and space. I will try an take pics of the new enclosure that I just built and post them. One more thing.. gentle handling and speaking softly goes a long way, my frilled loves to sleep/hang out on my shoulder inside my shirt, if you notice it getting stressed put him/her back in the enclosure and give it some time to absorb the attention. I hope I have been of help.. take care and post pics when you can. Sorry the post was so long.. [ Reply To This Message ] [ Subscribe to this Thread ] [ Hide Replies ]
