Marlow is now 15” at 23days off his 1st birthday
Do they stop growing length around 12 months or is it 18 months?
I know they still gain muscle and fill out a bit after that but just wondering on the length.
I’ve had him 3 months now, he was 11” at 9 months so gained 4” in 3months

I know his growth is likely stunted from the husbandry before he adopted us

It really kind of varies. My vet says they can grow up until about two years but growth slows down quite a bit between about 12-18 months. By 18-24 months I'd consider him to be full length.

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
