Yes Dennis, the dragons are keen on fruits and vegies.. My little guys eat apple, grape fruit, bok choi, carrot and sometimes even dandy lions if I can find them... They are definitely an omnivorous animal, and its actually very good for them to get some fruit and vegitables in their diet..
Im sure you'll love watching her grow.. The eastern water dragons can grow REALLY big... so the more she gets used to you the better, as you don't want her perceiving you as a threat when she's a 90cm long lizard... Im not by any means saying domesticate her, just dont avoid doing something if she's in the way, just go about business as usual. She will watch you just like you watch her, and start to understand that you're not a threat to her, and that you have no intention of harming her or stealing her territory, that way when she is a big (possibly 1m length) lizard in 4 or 5 years time, she'll be quite accustomed to you, and feel safe with you around...
My mate has a domestic EWD that roams around his house... its about 85~90 cm, and is a really freindly boy.. But a bit big for me to manage as a pet I think... my beardies will get to 50~60cm in 5 years or so.. thats quite big enough.
