I read somewhere that most baby bearded dragons don't make it past childhood, whether it be due to adenovirus or other causes.
Dachiu dragons, the breeder I plan on buying from, has this warning on the health/shipping guarantee page:
**Our breeders and currently available dragons have not been tested for adenovirus. Adenovirus is believed to be present in many/most bearded dragons, including ours. For those of you who wish to test – a positive tested animal may be returned to us within 6 weeks and a refund issued for the purchase price. *We do not refund shipping fees or testing costs
What size/age should I buy my dragon at to lower the likelihood of having one with adenovirus? They don't list the ages though, they just have 6-7 in, 8 in, etc.
Maybe I should buy the dragon from a different breeder?
