slow growth rate

buffysmom Dec 06, 2003 12:38 PM

Hello, I have 4 leos, 2 of which have had bacterial infections/parasites & whatnot from when I purchased them, they're both healthy now (Tang & Ginger). All have grown well except one, Tang, who has had 2 rounds of parasites. She's not thin & eats regularly. She shares a set up w/ my healthiest, fattest female, Geo. Temps are good, activity is good. She feeds on mealies from a dish. She was born around May 2003 & was 14 grams when I got her in August. She was 23 g in Oct & is now 25 grams, but really isn't very long/big. Will she keep growing or will she always be little?

I think some leos are just late bloomers.
