How long do beardies actually live?
I've read everything from 3 years, to upwards of 20+ years
that is quite a large variable in their age, most pages say 10-12 years should be the 'average' life-span,
but then some say 3-10 years, while others say 15-19 years if properly taken care of.
Where are the experts?
everyone who owns a bearded dragon obviously thinks they're an expert, only they know the truth.
but what is the actual life expectancy of a 'healthy' and 'well taken care of' dragon, who doesn't have an immune disorder, is fed healthy food, and has consistent UVB, and no parasites.
