John, that is Jordan? Bub's brother? They look a lot alike and I assume they have similar personalities from your photo. Jordan looks like he's larger than Bubs but he is a male. You need to post a new sighting of Lev and her offspring on Cyclura.com and change your previous comments about their disposition. More photos, please!!

Females usually start growing slower than males the first year they lay. The burden of producing eggs takes priority over growth. Jordan has not been weighed in awhile, but I will guess he is close to 12lbs. The picture below of Lev was taken a year ago in Los Angeles. She was nearly 16lbs when the picture was taken.

nice photo, is that from the west coast or the east? My wife would flip if I let my son that close to mine, but he is only 2. How old is this rhino

The Picture was recently taken on Long Island, NY. Both my son Zack and the ig Jordan were born in 1998. Jordan is an offspring of Walter of cyclura.com and Lev -- one of my females.
My wife would have freaked also if I had put zack in with Jordan at age 2. Now that we have 2 kids, My wife has mellowed out. The little fingers of a small child can be confused for large super worms, so be careful with what you try.
