can you get a friend to come in and feed them for you while you are away. That is what I do when I go to my in-laws for the week end on occasion.

I wouldn't recommend a Frilled Dragon under those circumstances then. They are very active lizards, and will eat you out of house and home.

Actually, I don't think any lizard should really be left without food 3 days out of every week. Maybe you should look into a snake?

yeah, snakes are definitiely a better choice of animal for you, unless, like zookeeper said, you can get a friend to feed it for you

There are tons of lizards that can go without food for 3 days
If you are worried about leaving for 3 days toss in crickets before you leave or add a dish of mealworms..it is better to have someone check up on your lizard while you are gone but being gone for 3 days is not life threatening to the lizard..put your lights on timers and have a friend pop by to check up on everything
