My babies....is this normal???

Philg Sep 23, 2003 07:53 PM

My 2 babies hatched july 4th, and at 2 months they are HUGE. They eat more than my adult males... 10 large crickets a night, and I feed them every night. I'm not complaining by any means, I'm just wondering if it is normal for babies to eat this much. My freind has 2 babies that are 2 months older, and they are about half the size of mine. If you click the link below, they are in the first few pics. I was also wondering what morph they are. They're spots have faded more, and some orange is starting to show in areas.....They are much bigger now than in the pic....

Not neccesarily recessive genetics as Ron Tremper claims his are, but I would say that something in the makeup of your leos is allowing them to grow at a faster rate. Nothing special or to be concerned about, just different.
