Got a frilled dragon from Hamm and he is gorgoues beyond description.

I know some of you warned me about Hamm sellers labelling stuff as captivebred and they are in fact wildcaught but this guy looked in perfect nik and looked plump and healthy and alert so im pretty sure he was captivebred and was told by the seller he bred him himself so hopefully that true. Plus on hes tub it says he was born on 2007

Ive got him in a 2and a half ft viv x18 x18 inches. Got a large water bowl, orchid bark subrate, branch to climb on and cork bark. Heres a piccy of the setup

What do you think? Do you think he needs more in it? Should i change anything about it?

The temps arent quite right yet and but im sorting that out in a minute when i get a higher wattage bulb. I wouldnt usually get a reptile whithout having something set up and rearing to go but I knew i had everything i needed just had to be put together.

He ate one waxworm last night and was quite active around hes viv but this morning hes just sitting in one corner perches up on a bit of corkbark. Il give him a couple of days and dont handle him for around a while untill hes properly eating and got a routine into him.

Hes sooooo cute. Im so glad I got him.

Im a little worried cus he hasnt moved from the same spot he slept in last night. Ive got the temps up to 95 degrees basking point. He is looking round but not moved. I put 2 locusts in with him but he was just not interested. Should I try crickets tonight or what I did with my rankins when she was a bit fussy, I made sure there was no food items running around for a day or 2 and then introduce food and by then her appetite would have grown and she would hunt for food. Should I try this with the frilly?? Im panicking cus he hasnt eatn anything other than a waxworm last night. im gunna give him some hydrolife tonight to hopefully keep hm going and stimulate hes appetite.

Ive only had him 5mins and already im worried about him LOL

thanks for your comments guys but im a bit worried cus he hasnt eaten since ive had him apart from the waxworm last night. Im gunna give him some hydrolife tonight and see how he goes.

temps are sorted out now btw

i dont get it hes just sitting in the same spot he slept in (he hasnt moved at all) but last night when i put him in the viv he was really active and moving around really well and jumping around exploring and sluff and today hes like a different lizard
