I am a brand new keeper to frilled dragons.

I am wondering how fast do they grow and possibly how old is the little one I have just gotten is. He's roughly 5 inches snout to tail. Currently I have him in a 20 long, I know i'll have to build a much bigger habitat later, how long can I expect him to be happy in this size? And from there I have a 55 standard, after that I plan on building a habitat that is 4-5 ft long x 2.5 deep x 6 ft high.



Also I don't know for sure that he is cb, just to be on the safe side, what wormers have been used safely with this species. I work at a vet clinic so getting them is no problem, I just need to know what to get (our doc is domestics only sadly ).



The only problem I have been having at the moment is maintaining humidity in a qurrentine type setup. So far stools look normal, unfortunately they are too dry for me to run a fecal to really be sure he's free from worms. Would you all reccomend switching to a substrate that better holds it now or wait till at the very least deworm him first?



I'll post pictures of him later

thanks,

ashley
