Should my a 7-8 month old bearded dragon he 12 inches long. I got easily worried about him :shock: :lol:

They all grow at different rates. My current male is 9 months old and is 19.5" and 410 grams just for reference. If your husbandry is not correct it can affect their growth. If you are worried that he should be bigger then you may want to verify that you are doing everything correctly. If you are and there are no other underlying issues then it is not unusual for them to grow at very different rates.

Ok thanks. The only thing I'm working on is the lighting/uvb.
