I am considering adding a Chinese Water Dragon to our collection. This would be a combo birthday/Christmas present from my GF, so not until mid-late Fall would I have the cage and system. I am currently looking at the Animal Plastics A20 arboreal cage. It is 48" x 24" x 36" high. I know a fully grown adult would need a larger cage, but I hope that this would work for a year or two for a single dragon. Like I said, I am in the process of researching and planning this out.
Anyone have any suggestions with regards to caging or set up?
Also, I know that most, if not all CWD's are imported from Asia, typically Vietnam. Because they are wild caught parasites can be a worry. I do have access to a qualified herp vet, so I can have a fecal done if need be. Then there is the issue of where to purchase it from. My GF works for Petsmart, and I have worked for Petsmart in the past and am not overly thrilled with the idea of buying one from them, but I am not sure where else to get one. I don't know if they are seasonably available or available year round. Can anyone shed some light on this?
