baby facts wanted

PacMan333 Aug 07, 2006 01:40 PM

I have four bd's which are about 6 inches head to tail tip. They have showed no signs of shedding or growing for a while and mostly sit around the basking log, not in the hottest part. It is 105 degrees F at the hottest part and I don't know if I should get something to increase that or what to get to do it. They poop and eat a few cricks a day. How many times a month do they shed?

get your temp up and they will probly eat more. mine as babies always ate more than a doz a day each, also my new 6 inch babies are between the to of them eating 3 doz a day. this will speed up growth and the need to shed, also you can give them baths to help with the shedding
hope this helps
