Taming them takes a bit of patience because babies are somewhat sensative and can become stressed with overhandling and/or you being in their view too often. They usually become as tame as bearded dragons, but are more energetic. New Guineas get about 24" (snout to tail). And Aussies usually get larger. They require large arboreal cages as adults and mainly eat crickets. Adults can have an occasional pinkie for a treat (diet is a lot like bearded dragons, but they don't eat greens/veggies).
