- Beardie name(s)
- Carl
Hey everyone - soo....when I bought Charlie, he was sold as a 'fancy' beardie at petsmart (lol yeah ok). Anyway. He was tiny, we figured 6 to 8 weeks. He was 31g and about 8 to 9 inches long. That was Feb 27th. I weighed him on Friday - 2 months since I got him. He is now 15 inches long and 199 g...and is only about 4 months old. I mentioned it to one of my Petsmart peeps that I know has them herself (and tries to change the way the shop keeps them), she wondered if maybe he had some German Giant in him - which could explain why he is growing so big.
Thoughts? I mean, I know have read that once the bloodlines are diluted 2 to 4 generations that they are basically just normal beardies, but he is already almost as big as some adults I have read about. It's crazy. It's kind of funny too - he's of course in a huge shed and I keep getting the stink eye cause he's so grumpy :lol:
