Chinese Water Dragon

[cope]

Here is what I have... I somehow am the new owner of this Chinese Water dragon. I would say his body is 8" long total lenght tail and all is 22"

He was given to me because I know how to care for them. Do not know how old.. I would guess 3 years old....

the cage goes with him.. the cage is like a 1969 chrome metal 75 gallon fish tank and it is WAY to short for this guy.... He needs something tall.. at least 2-3 feet tall so he can get up high and feel secure....

not sure if he was abused or not.. but he is eating and sometimes gets in the water for a swim...

I only want 25.00 ...

YOU MUST assure me that you know how to take care of this animal.. I do not want to let him go to someone who is expecting this to be simple and he does not get the care he has thus far been lacking... these animals if handled properly can roam free in your house if it is secure.. that is completely your call..... they need moisture and fresh water daily and a warm place to lay.. and they need UV light for the heath of their skin.

my wife says I have too many animals and I can not keep this one. Period.. No discussion...... she feels like we own a zoo now.. LOL.. the first person who calls and commits get him... but you will need to get him a new cage. 713-408-6365

I don't know a thing about them, but I would like one. Do they like kids?

Fishboy, tell your dad to come over and bring you.. you can look at my set up and see what you need for this guy. I can tell you how to care for him. Do some research and see if this is the pet for you.

My shop is in LaPorte... 118 s.5th street Coupland Signs this is where I work.

I can't make it down to La Porte. I'll keep researching and talk with my parents. :)

[fishboyt]

Could I put him in a large cage outside made of chickenwire?

[cope]

No, he needs to be inside.... in a cage.... he needs to feel secure.... but he needs a tall cage so he can climb....

[fishboyt]

OK. :) If I were allowed to get him, would you accept trades?
