So the title says it all. How big are your dragons. I'm talking about length and grams if you know it. My dragon is at 20 inches and I think he's done growing but ya. How about your dragons.

My girl just measured in at 13 3/4", we think she may be 5.5 months old.

Pretty much a monthly pictorial record of my 3 that I have at this time, since hatching: Hatchlings

Keep in mind that different BDs, grow at different rates & to different over all sizes. Comparison is not always the best of plans.

I was just thinking the other day that I wished I would have taken a picture along her measurements.

Mungi is 18 1/2 inches snout tip to tail tip and as of last weigh this past Sunday he is a very nice solid 504 grams:)
Is it done growing? The reason I ask everyone is 1. Its cool to hear about other dragons and 2. My local petshop said they get on average 24inches and that Jonny is short xD

Some do get larger but I think average is about 17-18 inches when full grown. Like most creatures though it depends on the individual and it's genetics as well as the diet and care it is given. Without proper diet, heat and UV they can become "stunted" in growth.
Mungi is an adult at 3 years old so he isn't really growing much more although he did surprise me this last year as he has grown about an addition inch since this time last year.
BTW I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock on statistics and care tips coming from most pet shops because the fact is that most only have only a general knowledge and not any real species specific knowledge to offer. Most ofwhat they are good for is to move critters as quickly as possible and sell you as much accessory product asthey can under the guise of "everything you need to take care of your new pet" when in reality they haven't a clue as to the proper care or needs of the creature you are buying or inquiring about.

Enjoy:)

Cool thank you very much Mungi. I thought the pet shop was right because they trim lizard nails their and give free health check ups but i guess not. Is the dragon in your profile picture Mungi the dragon lol

Mine are brother and sister (from the same clutch) I always measure short too these pair are wriggly little mites lol. Genetics have a whole lot of influence on all living creatures but as you can see it doesn't always make 2 things the same :D
