question about size of my beardie

[spikeswithskills]

i was wondering if my bearded dragon was going to grow anymore,because i got him in July 2009, being 9 inches, and now (January 2011) he is 18inches. I thought that he would grow more to be around 20-24inches, but can he still grow if i continue to provide a stable diet?

18 inches is still pretty average for an adult. They can grow up to 24 inches, but I believe the max size is uncommon. 18-22 inches is more the norm.

I don't know if they grow anymore at that age. I suppose it is possible, but it wouldn't be a significant amount.

That is probably the biggest he will get, length-wise. He is a pretty average length! He's definitely not too short. 24 inches is much more common with a particular morph, the German Giant, not with a normal dragon.
