Guessing age?

[JessW]

Hello helpful people! My little bearded dragon's age is a mystery to me. I am curious if it is possible to tell from size/appearance how old he/she is. Mostly I'm just curious.
Length: 8.5"
Weight: 30g

Hard to say for sure but at that size probably only 2-3 months old.

Thanks so much! The guy at the pet store said 5 1/2 months lol ?

He looks pretty healthy so I'd guess at 5 and a half months he'd be quite a bit bigger. Well over 100g anyway. Hard to say for sure because they all grow at different rates. His head is still a bit round but not as much as a baby dragon. As he ages that will elongate a bit.

He technically could be - mine is perfectly healthy, just tiny (7m and only 13.5")
It's really hard to tell, since every beardie is different!

I guess that's true, he just seems little for that old
