How long do bearded dragons live for?

Question

I was just wondering how long Central Bearded Dragons live for, because I've heard people say that they live for 5 years, 10+ years and even a man at the Easter Show who was displaying some reptiles and other bearded dragons said that they live for 70 years. I am not sure which is the correct life span. My beardie is well taken care of and is around 1 year old (give or take a few months).

There life span is 5 to 10 years in captivity but in the wild they are know to live up to 12 years.

Answer 3

Zara Julia a bearded dragon is NOT a snake so why answer. Usually about 8-12 years, depending on the quality of care given and the individual lizard of course, but that's the average anyway.

Answer 4

They have a life expectancy from between 5 and 10 years.
