When do they quit growing?

[hdcrazy25]

My lil "girl" is only 6 months old and already 14" is this normal she is also already eating superworms. Does this sound right?
I bought her in februaury and she was about 4" long and a little chow hound. Her being that size when i bought her put her being born in early january IMO.

That sounds about normal. I got our Angus mid April and he was about 6" and weighed .2 oz - tiny little thing. Since then he's grown to 14" and weighs in at 5.2 oz. I think they grow fast the first 1 1/2 yrs but I'm not sure as I'm all new to this. There are growth charts you can look at here to get an idea http://www.beautifuldragons.503xtreme.com/Growth.html

They usually grow up until they have reached adult which is at 18 months.. but Spot is still growing and she's 22mo

My Sokar was nearly 16 inches when he died. I estimated him to be about 6 months old.

Bane, estimated age 19 weeks, 12.25"
Astarte estimated age 22 weeks, 14"


Of course my ages are estimates, but I don't believe I'm far off. I've checked their growth rates against charts I've found on the internet they seemed pretty average. Sokar might have been a little above average towards the end, but it didn't seem unheard of.

Here's another growth chart
