I was just browsing this site and came across this post!
I have 5 beardies
mom and dad who are roughly 6 years old with their 3 offspring that we kept. They are about a year and a half.
12 years, wow! I always thought they ranged from 7-8.. Very cool

Wow first off beautiful beardy family
Yes their average life expectancy is much less then 12 years, which is why I made the thread, Spike has become much less active over the past couple years so I wanted to give him his own thread because he's brought me so much joy and comfort in my life! realistically he could die any day, but every day he is alive is great, I will miss him dearly
How big is your beardie tank.... And what vegoes do u feed him... And u said u feed him pellets... Im curious lol

He's been in a 75 his whole life, recently in the past few months I moved him to a 40b so he could be on my night stand and I could keep an eye on him, plus he never used the other half of the tank, the crushed walnut substrate never showed any marks the past couple years!
He eats crickets with calcium that I keep for a week or so and gut load with fish flake or fish pellets, always has a planter full of fresh water, I mix green beans, peas, carrots and corn with zilla beardy pellets as well.
But during summer he chills in a kiddy pool swimming for around 4-8 hours per day with a piece of dw, and i think the fresh sun and air has helped. Keeping them between 80-93 degrees is key too!
