I was browsing the net last night and came accross an ad for injured beardies so I had a look and fell in love with this dragon and had to have her! Had to drive 2 hours to get her but it was worth it!
But who am I to talk. I once had a dragon with about half of his tail missing. At the end of the tail, it came to a curve upwards, so I called him scorpio since he looked like a scorpion.. lol.
How is she at getting around? I understand your wanting her. I would not be able to resist.. because I would want to know for sure that she is well taken care of. I begged and begged my husband to let me adopt a dragon that grew to 10 months with NO uv lighting what so ever. He lost the use of his back legs completely.. and he was a little bent and slow.. but I wanted him badly! Sadly I have too many animals and I wasn't allowed to bring him home. He got around by pulling himself forward with his front legs.. he did pretty good!

surprisingly she is getting round quite fine she's actually quite fast when she was chasing her crickets! they had a few babies with missing limbs and tails was so sad i wanted to take them all home! they also had a few adults with missing limbs too
I know I didn't actually realise how big pepe was till I got tango! The person I got her off said she is 4 months but I think she's younger! Anyone agree or am I wrong?
It's hard to tell. From what I understand if you take her length from nose to vent her tail would be one inch longer add the two and you would get full nose to tail length. So if 5 inches from nose to vent she would be 11. Then you can look at other dragons to compare and get an idea of possible age. There is a topic here (somewhere) that is all about age, length, and weight.
My guy Toa was 12" at approximately four months.
Hopefully I am remembering that correctly. If I'm off hopefully someone will correct me.
