Foster at weekly weigh in.

Mattman Aug 04, 2003 09:55 PM

Foster got weighed today. He just gets bigger and bigger every week. Last week he was 716. This week he is holding up above 730. In the last month he grew another inch in lentgh. He's around 14 months old this month. I got him last August from Chris Allen.

I was talking to Cheri about Foster, and she said that German Giant traits can show up generations after they were introduced to the genes. By looking at the shape of his body and head you could see he might carry some of those genes. Since he is half sandfire red and Sandfire Ranch being one of the breeders that was able to get german giants and some from other countries. He does have the big stocky boby and legs like a lot of GG. I would love to know when he is going to stop growing,lol. It's just so cool watching him get bigger and bigger. He carries his weight fine too. He's very active, and when he sees a female forget about it he's insane. The biggest dragon I ever heard of is 800 grams and 24 and 26 inches. I never seen him but Cheri has. I would love if he grew a few more inches, but I don't see him getting that much longer. He evened out for a while, and he hit a little spurt in the last month or so. It sure would be cool to have one of the biggest dragons.

yea, that is possible.. i dunno though I think GG normally have smaller heads compared to their bodies.. and it looks like Foster has a relatively large head.. and I know Ceasar has a massive head compared to his body... but I don't know.. would be cool if he did have that GG in him for the genes and production.. but either way foster is very impressive. To have that much color at that size is awesome. Ceasar is the biggest dragon I've had and I thought he was huge, and Foster is 100g or so bigger! lol. Very cool indeed.
