Do Black Beardie Babies become Black Beardie Adults?

So there's a really dark baby bearded dragon at my local pet store. I don't have an actual picture, but he looks like this one:

I'm going to be able to handle the beardies at my pet store this weekend at their Reptile special weekend event. I'll try and get some actual photos.

I was wondering, since I know how a baby looks isn't necessarily how the adult will look, would the black baby above grow up to be a black/dark adult? Or do they pale with age?

No, they change pretty drastically for the most part. It would be nice to see a very dark dragon, they are rare and would be highly sought after.
