Tipping the scales!!!

[drewlowe]

This is a picture of login my male bearded dragon a.k.a. my chunker. He's a great bearded dragon, good eater, great personality, and such a sweetie. He went to the vet Sat. to have his checkup and he is the first bearded dragon to tip the scales LOL. (don't worry i asked my vet if he was obese and he said no and commented on how healthy he appeared, how alert he was, and how much he liked shoulders lol.) I do have a dig. scale at home that i use for my leos but i had to stop weighing my beardies at a year old, because my scale wouldn't go that far. They also said this was the biggest beardie that they have seen. I'm just so proud of him!!! After all the good news at the vets i decied to give my boy and girl some treats. When we got home they got a nice warm bath (they swam around for a bit) and for lunch some food pellets with some cantelope, kiwi, and grapes.

Can you guess how much this guy weighs????

Thanks you two...

Yeah i don't have a newer pic of him next to anything. The best i can do is his back leg (the thigh part) is the same size of my thumb. The dig. camera is out of town right now but when it gets back i will take a good comparison picture.

Hehe i wish he was 600+grams. Ok since i know alot of people don't come to the beardie forum i'll tell ya.... He's 1.2lbs i think that converts to 504 grams. I'm so proud of my big boy!!!

I didn't take my girl in this time but i'm taking her in next time cause i really wanna know what she weighs. I think she may be right around his size or a little over...
