I have had my frilled for about 6 months. I have bred bearded dragons for years, which I totally enjoy. I had allways admired frilled dragons and was offered one in trade for some of my bearded hatchlings. I have him/her in a large 3ft wide 4ft tall plexiglass enclosure with many vines and branches. He/she loves it. Have never had the first problem. GREAT eater and pretty sweet! I wanted to see how I liked them before I decided to expand my collection and possibly add them to my breeding program. Well, I have decided to give it a try. First off, is there any absolute way of telling a male from a female. Since this is the only frilled I have came in contact with, the whole larger head larger frill thing doesn't help me much. I was wondering if it is similar to sexing bearded dragons? Do the males show phemoral bulges past a certain age? I just want to be certain before I begin my search for a mate. Thanks soooo much.

Well... you may want ot post a couple of pictures of the animal so the few of us who actually look at this forum can have a look.
breeding them isnt thathard... hatching the eggs is what i have been challenged with; well at least with the Aussie animals. If i were you I would get the best animals I could. Dont waste your money on new imported crap to save $50. Tribal has wht they say are 2 pairs that are young. I know that he used to work with a lot of frills, so i think he wouldnt steer you too wrong. If you woant babies buy the cb babies that Dragon Attack has. But you will have to grow them up 3 years. The older animals that Tribal has will probably breed in less than 2 years, 18 months??

good luck

I will post a pic as soon as I get a chance. Thank you for all the info on getting another one. I would definatley rather spend more money for quality. I have read that there are alot of problems with imports usually. After reading some I am also unsure if this one is an Austrailian or a New Guinea. I can get in touch with the guy I got it from and make sure if there's no other way to tell. He just said it was a frilled. I may be crazy for getting into breeding with these guys. It's not like I don't have enough going on with my beardies!! Thanks again!!!
