    Out of Ideas...Help me feed my beardie!

    Is he older than I think?

    I have a male Beardie, and was wondering if maybe he is older than I originally thought? I got him from petco (sorry) when he was 7 1/2 inches long and 20 grams. Ive had him for 5 months now, and he is now around 18 inches and 400 grams. Does 7 months sound a bout right? I know that weight...

    Underweight or what?

    Ok I know this is going to sound repetitive...but Im just wondering because I really dont know how old he is...and in the early weeks one week can mean a lot of growth. Petco (yes, the dreaded petco) said he was 4 months old...I believe he is closer to 2 months old. He is currently 9 1/4...
