Most are done growing in length by 12 mo. They usually put on wt. after that.

Actually, bearded dragons never stop growing, its just they grow slower and slower as they age. So instead of about and inch a week, like a hatchling, a one year old adult may grow about one inch a year but only for a year and then it just goes down even further. But yes they do most of their growing in the first year and a half but can still put on another good 2 inches or more in their lifetime.
