Size/Weight

I was just wondering if anyone can tell me approximately how old my beardie is? I just weighed him and he's just shy of 30g and is 9" tip of nose to tip of tail. He was purchased from PetSmart and the previous owner was instructed to only be feeding him 4-5 crickets a day, once we got him, everything changed. He got a whole new setup and a new diet. He eats up to 80 crickets a day! We got him mid August and the previous owner said he was probably 2-3 months old. He's definitely grown a ton since we got him, but I just want to figure out how old he is more closely. Thanks in advance!

He is probably four months old. Every beardie grows at a different rate.

Brandon's right - beardies grow all kinds of odd
So long as the food is no bigger than the space between his eyes, let him eat. A little dragon will eat LOTS.

I re weighed him, he's actually 45 g! Porker!
