20 gallon long should be good for a while, but i sudjest you get at least a 40 gallon with lots of floor space cause it's a hassle to buy another cage and you can't really have to much space, so the little guy won't be un comfortable. but if you don't have the money now or you got a 20 gallon long sitting around, that should work well untill he gets bigger, but make sure he gets a bigger cage later on.

I agree. A twenty long would be fine for two or three months if you get a 6 week old dragon. If you don't already have one and just need something for the short term till he gets a bit bigger... (which I highly recomend as bigger cages have to much area to cover for hunting down food..).......Go get a 58 quart sterilite tub from Wally world. It's cheaper and in my opinion bnetter....... Just a thought.
