I am pleased to report that we added a frilled dragon to our family. He arrived on Tuesday 9/9/03. So far it has been quite interesting between chasing crickets around the room (not quite the adept cricket keepers yet) and thinking he had escaped on Wednesday (he was actually clinging to the wire from the thermostat probe at the top of the cage). He still seems stressed from the journey, but is eating (as long as it moves) and there is evidence that he is moving around the cage during the day, though when we look he is always on the highest perch basking. I have included a picture from when he was pulled from the box and the link to another picture in the enclosure.

On log in enclosure.

Wow, I can remember when mine was that young. He would always fall over forward when he jumped because his head was so big. Congratulations on your dragon and enjoy him!

(Sorry all for the double post). He is settling in now and has started hunting aggressively. A very animated little character. I see why people like them.
