20 odd years ago when i was in aussie i had a yearling waterdragon leap off a 3 story balcony was a bit stuned but ok. n my beardies in w/d regularly leap off 2m high ledge fo snafel locusts. i wouldnt lose to much sleep over it.

the trick with outside is they get to hibernate,wich gives there body an anual detox,and imagin they only have x amount of heart beats in them,by hibernating it slows right down=longer life span.
I would guess w/d inside maby 15 years outside up to 40.
with beardies iv seen them burnt out in 3 years when they should go 12 years. i am experimenting with inland beardies outside ,so far so good.
i have a 2 year old who was out side all last winter and is healthy but half the size of an indoor . n 5 adults who were outside as well. make there enclosure dry but with a glass or plastic roof as its the cold damp that toasts them. dry cold is fine (its realy ball numbingly cold in aussie desert at night) .
i think the trick with most reptiles is less is more(heat,food)if you want a healthy long lived animal.

woah guys keep it toned down, Lmsmith only wanted advice like most people that's new to something so there's no need to get up on your high horse about.
Smeauwa - you may be new to the forum but people don't get condescending over others, not only can you get banned but no one will take you seriously or even help you out when you need help.
Wow (Condescending)..... Wish i could pull out the whole 4 syllables
Thanks for not taking me seriously,I dont! maby you could help me with my high horse ,it seems to have got away from me!didnt realise lmsmith was so young....Lmsmith dont keep an adult in anything less than a 2m cube enclosure, minium a large water bowl, max a 50/50water land enclosure
glass leads to snout rub so keep the glass at water level and up.Out side after 2 years ....max, pref sooner . otherwise, unless its tame(see living art,n handel daily) you will get snout rub .N if inside will half its lifespan.
If outside where you get winter frosts or snow, supply at least 60 cm soil to hibernate in.the greener the enclosure n shorter the sunlight phase (not photo cycle) the greener the w/d (but more chance of rickets) bla bla bla e,c,t e,c,t. theres some basics .as you can see, big diference in husbandry
between w/d n b/d!

Well, I guess you're new here, but this forum is about learning things. I know quite a bit about beardies, but have recently seen lots of people talking about about WDs. I have googled it, but there's so much contrasting information out there about them, so I'm asking people I trust have first hand experience. But thanks, I won't be buying any from someone like you.
Thanks Chilli - that's the sort of info I'm after!
Sorry about that! As a breeder i get a lot of stupid questions thrown at me.
like (can i keep a wd with my axolotle in my 2 foot fishtank) or(do they eat) or (whats the difference between a wd n a beardie) as a policy i wont sell reptiles to Mod=Warren - swearing removed who are willing to part with a large chunk of money for a reptile without doing some basic research. i now understand your trying to do that research on this forum so maby you arnt a Mod=Warren - swearing removed after all. good luck to you.

I hope your misting him/her at least once a day....?????

Yea na depending where you come from. fine in auckland/ north. with a winter heatlamp n rain cover. i know off a coastal beardie breeder ,from PALMASTON NORTH who had them outside n winter( with a light bulb in an avairy) so basicly the same thing. i dont see her selling many but sooooo

Well for a start they recived one from public hands to get them breeding in the first place, edit (Warren) - swearing removed.
