how to tell age

[syariama]

I recently got a beardie and was wondering the best way to tell her age. I figured by her size would be teh best, but I can't find articles at all about size correlating with their age. An example I'm looking for is like 4 inches SVL determines if they are baby or juvenile, and approximately how many months old they are. I'm curious! (also waiting to hear back from a friend of mine who got me the dragon from his friend that is a breeder to see if he knows/can get the breeder to tell me.)

Unless you know the hatch date from the breeder it's hard to tell.. They all grow at such different rates.. Here is a growth chart that might give u some kinda idea but like it's really hard to compare one to another b/c they are all so different.. http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Growth.html Hope this helps!

it's helpful, just not quite for her size. I measured her earlier today and shes 6 1/2 inches with her tail and 2 1/2 inches without the tail. She's only a baby still! Measured my boyfriends too and hes still just a baby too (3 1/2 inches without his tail, 5 1/2 with tail, he had cage mates in the pet store that chomped off his tail).
