BABIES

But how big does this cage need to be, well good news not huge. From 0-4 months you can get away with a 20 gallon. but once they get past 4 months they need at least a 40 gallon. This is why I would recommend starting of with a 40 gallon even if you get a dragon under 4 months.

This can work as a minimum and I have seen dragon live happy lives in these. The dimensions of a 75 are 48 by 20 by 18. But if you want to give your dragon a larger and better space.what I would recommend is 120 gallon. i say this because bigger for a lot of reptiles is better. As long as you can maintain the humidity and temps in the enclosure you can go huge. But 120 gallon is what I would recommend. The dimensions of a 120 gallon enclosure are 48 by 24 by 24.
