When handling a scary bearded dragon, it's important to approach them calmly and confidently. Use slow movements and avoid sudden gestures that may startle them. Support their body properly and avoid grabbing them from above. Gradually build trust by spending time near them without touching, then slowly introduce handling. Be patient and gentle, and always respect their boundaries.

The average adult bearded dragon gets 18 inches long (1 1/2 feet) . There are different species of bearded dragon that can get up to 24 inches (2 feet). I have 5 adult dragons. The smallest is about 14 inches, the largest is about 22 inches. Ones that have some "German Giant" genes tend to get larger but you really can't tell until they are full grown. 18 inches is a good estimate but it could be 4 - 6 inches difference in either direction.
