Well, I took some weights and measurements today and here is what I have found.
Skippy is a 8 1/2 month old male.
He is 16" long
Weighs 245 grams...he put on 5 grams in the last two weeks.
the only problem is I have to hand feed him his crickets, greens, and worms....he eats them when I open his mouth and then he sucks them in and chews them up great...he just will not eat on his own... Is he getting lazy enough that he will not even eat on his own??I know that sounds silly. Just wondering how he is keeping his weight up when he really is not eating .
Thanks
Nancy
