You said..."Hi, I was wondering if most wild cought/imported/farm raised water dragons are prone to having parasites? I recently obtained a small group(4) of 2-4 month olds and all "appear" to be healthy, but was wondering if steps are generally needed to ensure parasitic free dragons, or because of their arboreal nature stay "clean"?"...any water dragon can carry parasites whether WC or not. It doesn't matter if a lizard is arboreal or not, they can get internal parasites from what they eat and drink and pick up external ones from their environment too.
