Now see that's what i'm talking about, everything you said i can agree with except to have a BT grow to 5ft in just a year, did you power feed it?? I would think growing that big that fast would lead to improper bone formation as well as Calcium deficiency and health problems later on in life. I've heard of 4 ft in 2 years which i've seen several times with different BT owners. I also read that for a water monitor the record growth length was 3in in one month from a hatchling. Not trying to step on anyones feet here, just really interested in this subject.
