Overweight?

hey, my bearded dragon looks fat, and i know they are fat lizards, but i don't know if they are THIS fat haha. It could just be the way he lays or something but he looks big. i weighed him and he's 114 grams (4 oz) and i measured him, with a 6 inch hello kitty ruler so not very accurately, but he's about 12 inches right now.. is that normal?

im going to say yes, but im not aexpert, we have a 16 inch, 270 gram beardies and he is fine and healthy, actually i think your might be under weight, but hope somone else gives their answer as well

Nope! I wouldn't say fat...just looks like a pleasantly plump healthy belly to me.
