Anything can help?

Hi, my name is Lauren and when I went into the exotic pet store, I did not want to buy anything I was "just looking". But there he was, love at first sight, my frilled dragon. And I emptied out my pockets for this lovely and I read up and researched and asked all the imprtant questions. But what I don't know is the type of frilled dragon he is, it's gender, how big he is going to get, and does he look normal. I have been seeing so many different pictures of frilled dragons and they don't look anything like mine. I have only had him (her?) a month and I think he was 8 weeks when I bought him. Here are some pictures, I am wondering if anyone can tell me anything and as much as possible about these pictures. He (she?) looks happy and just shed for the first time and his skin looks very nice. I been feeding him crickets with vitamins and a couple silkworms here and there. He eats 12 large crickets everyother day with Nekton-Rep vitamin powder. Anything at all can help!!!...
P.s. in some pictures he looks kinda blue cause I had blue sand in there and he turned blue (it was only in there the first two days) now I have cypress mulch and he shed so he is not blue anymore except his tail because for some reason he did not shed the skin on his tail.

Awww, you just wanna kiss him/her right on the lips!! Its too cute. I love frilled dragons! I believe its too young to sex, I have a bigger frilly and am having trouble there. As far as what kind, its probably New Guinea. What state are you in, maybe someone else is near by that knows the breeders there. It a good looking frilly, and sounds/looks like it eats well. Just maintain the humidity by daily misting and having access to a clean water dish big enough to soak in and of course feed it all it wants. Go to www.sundialreptile.com, they have an awesome care sheet. Good luck and enjoy your frilly!
Have a look at my frilly
