[Chris1]

[Tristan]

looks similar to mine, it was sold to me as a western bearded dragon but after 2 years hes still very small, compared to other western beardeds i have seen in the shops

I agree, eyes in first n second photo weirdly remind me of a boyds forrest dragon as well.

regardless he looks awesome!

 

[Justdragons]

I personally don't see any features that would remind me of a water dragon.. But let's just for a moment assume it was a bearded x water, would the water part not make the animal bigger than a regular bearded? Rather than smaller.

its toes look longer and scales around the mouth look different? yer? head just looks water dragon like IMO

 

[davobmx]

so many opinions, i cant decide but the closest so far is a dwarf bearded dragon

 

[benninsw]

Pogona Mitchelli Pilbara Dwarf Bearded Dragon​

 

[davobmx]

he is wild caught in the perth area i believe

It looks just as similar to a EWD as to pretty much the majority of Aussie dragons....

Looks like a pretty standard Pogona minor to me. Theres more than likely a bit of mitchelli blood mixed into captive gene pool in WA but that animal doesnt really show any traits common to mitchelli as far as i can see. Size is determined by food intake, it all depends on how much and how regularly you feed.

It's obviously a western bearded dragon
after all western bearded dragons are the only dragons sold in perth(and long nosed ta ta dragons), some of them have orange/yellow feet and legs and grey bodies

 

[Bluetongue1]

It looks like Pogna minor minor, the Western Bearded Dragon to me. Does it hold its tail in an arc above its body when climbing on rocks or branches?

So you know, P. m. mitchelli is actually a larger subspecies, more brightly coloured and has different arrangement of spines and broader head (like an equilateral triangle).

Blue.

FYI: Water Dragons are a relatively new coloniser in Australia and are only distantly related to Bearded Dragons. They are a lot more closely related to Forest (Angle-headed) Dragons in eastern Australia and SE Asia. I would suggest that the likelihood of a viable inter-generic cross is zero.
