Answer 2

Are they baby water dragons? If so it will be almost impossible to sex to Chinese or Australian water dragons. Also which of this do you have? I have more experience with Chinese Water dragons. If they are adults then you want to have a male and female in a tank or two females. This is how you would sex them. First with age an age of one and a half to two years and six inches snout to vent length males develop larger heads, large jowls, and a larger crest behind the neck, the femoral pores of adult males are slightly larger than that of the females. If they are babies you should use newspaper as a substrate they will not eat it and get impaction. Also the humidity should be around 60 to 100 percent. Also the heat should be at night 70 to 80 degreases F. Get A THERMOSTAT With CERMINC HEATER!!! They are very nice and docile. Get Juvies an at least a 30 gallon tank.Females get two to three feet, males get three to three and a half feet.

Answer 3

Yes, please read tricias water dragon website--it's the best! They will end up needing a very large enclosure, a pool for swimming (which must be very clean), lots of plants to discourage snout rubbing (a common problem), a variety of insects and plant foods, good heat and UVB lighting. Nice lizards, but not easy to care for.
