Is my beardie too small?

[HipHopOpotamus]

I've had my beardie since the beginning of March. I'm not too sure but i got him when he was either 1 or 2 months old. He was very small but steadily growing. i recently looked at some growth charts and at around 1 1/2 months, the average was 6.3 inches. my beardie is at least 2 months or more old but is only a mere 6 inches. should i be concerned or is he just small? thanks for any advice. i'll post pictures later because he's sleeping now. here's some picks of Grandpa Poe sleeping. unfortunately it's pretty blurry, but you get the point

you mentioned that he was steadily growing, so he should be ok. My girl rexie is ten months old and is 17inches long.

So as long as he keeps growing and is eating well you shouldn't have to worry. Have you got any pics up yet? Let me no i love looking at pics.

I thought my beardie was progressing slowly too. At 9 weeks, (just over two months) 6.25 inches. Maybe we just have small beardies.

It can also depend on the species of beardie you have or if he's a hybrid. Mine is a Rankins/Beardie hybrid and when I got him at 2 months old, he was about 6 or 7 inches long. He rapidly started his growth spurt not long after, and now he's now 7 months old and working his way past 15 inches - bigger than his mom is (she's a 12" Rankins). So, as long as your little guy seems to be eating well and growing good, I'm sure he's fine. Soon he'll be growing like a little weed!

I have no idea what morph she is and were i got wouldn't even know what that meant. But shes got a big buda belly, and eats well and poops, so as long as all that is ok i'm not worried!

Do you have any pics up. Have i already asked that? LOL
