Hi all!
I`ve had my male bearded dragon for about 6 months now and he has only grown 2 inches and gained 15 grams. I got him from a breeder when he was a month old and 6 inches long. I've recently started to weigh him every couple of days and his weight fluctuates constantly. He eats crickets and salad everyday, has 2 butter worms for treats a week, and has a bath every other day. All of his temperatures are correct, he doesn't seem to be stressed, he's active every day with lots of attention, and he's always displaying what I call his "happy colours" (white belly with bright orange and yellow on top of his body). He's had 2 full sheds since I've owned him. Overall, he seems like a perfectly healthy beardie to me. I just can't figure out why he hasn't gained much weight or grown.
He is currently around 7 months old, weighs 29.9 grams and is 8 and 1/4 inches long (nose to end of tail)
