Last year I hatched a dragon that at 3 months was 16 1/2 and 222. Today he is 22 1/2 and 635 at 10 months. His father is a greenie/orange german giant from Dachiu. But, his father is only 19 1/2 and 570. His mother was a rescue of unknown line. She is large and may be missing the tip of her tail. She is 21 1/2 and 650 grams. She had a very tough start before coming here and was only 8" at 7 months. Both mother and son I would call very long bodied. He looks very thin because his body is so long.

He is the closer of the 2 in the picture at 3 months old. The female behind him was born over 3 months before him. He has long since outgrown her.

Well my core male breeder is 650 grams 23.5" and only 11 months old. He came from a private breeder. I believe he was an Allen red X red.

This is him at 8 months old.

Now that's a big dragon. Only trouble with big males if finding big females for them. My big male just got banished to his own enclosure for dragging his 510 gr. 21 1/2" female around the cage to often. She was panicked so she is interviewing for a new smaller mate. lol.

I agree with that. I just got a Translucent and while she is still young I have heard that they don't get that big. So, I am hoping that I can get them to mate. While he is not a Het for trans I am hoping to produce some really nice large hets.

I also have a female that drug him around his cage. She is 19.5" and 630 grams. He got on top and held on while she ran around trying to shake him. She finally gave up.

My Male Mike is a 24 1/2 inch giant. He was listed as Hi yellow x Crawly red when i bought him though i never saw the pictures of his parents. I don't have a scale to weigh him but he is rather heavy too.
