Anyone good with Basilisk?

[nessanicolle]

Hello everyone, I just got a new brown basilisk that is about six months old.

I'm wondering what type he is and how big he will get. Is it a male or female? I know that males have the crest and he has a pretty decent sized crest but no plumes.. So do some brown basilisk not develop them at all or just not till they are older? He has the crest and a tiny ridge on its back but no real "plumage".

It's doing pretty good so far!
Thanks for any help!

They get about 2.5 feet or so.

Why not do just a bit of research and find some of the answers for yourself?

I've tried but thanks for your input.

You haven't tried very hard, a guick search on google would tell you their average size as well as ways to differentiate between male and female.

hi, yes around 2ft or so. if you dont know what size they get to then you might not even be caring for it properly? give us a run down of ur setup.
viv size? temps? humidity? uv?

That's a good lookin little fella you got there. From what I understand males get crests on the head back and tail so that would be your best way of telling. Most browns average around 2.5 feet. To me he looks like a common brown but I can't be sure.
