I would guess closer to 3 months from that pic. But it really depends on how well they where fed. More food equals faster growth.
Well she wakes up eating so she is probably 1 month. OMG she can eat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are a bottomless pit when they are babies lol. Or maybe a blackhole 🤔🤔😜
So I am a little nervous as she devours greens so I picked her up and handfed her dubias. She ate them like they were her last meal.OMG then I closed the container and she pounced on it and looked back and like like, "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM"-
I just can't LOL

This is the best shot I could get with help. I tried inside, outside- laying down and standing up.

I say it's a male...

Yeah pretty sure male. The pores are pronounced and i can see bumps where the hemipenes should be.

But he acts like a girllllllllllllllllll...whatever that means.
He raises up to the male in the home but didn't wave like Rocky did.
He acts so different from Rocky.
Ugh, this is going to be interesting.
But I am happy no eggs.... or should I say this site should be happy.

I like Ruby 🙂
The biggest problem i had when our Ruby laid was the fact they were infertile, it made me sad to think that, that was 20 something little babies that didn't happen. They were unexpected but as soon as i saw them i wanted them to hatch so so bad. ..... Now I've got Sinatra that should solve that lol.

okay everyone, I am emotional (surprise)- Rocky wont be able to play with his brother. I was able to keep Ruby up until 7 but he just told me lights off. Closed eyes, looked up at the lights several times and closed eyes when I asked if he wanted to get out.
Rocky (upstairs) walked right over to his enclosure at 5 and waited for me to lift him up. He was so bright and happy.

And here I am 2 beardies and beardie-less.

@xp29 my friend asked if it was a girl would I sell the eggs- could you imagine? I'm not built for breeding. I'm barely build to be a reptile parent.

Aww your profile picture is precious ❤️‍🩹
Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
