Another Question...

Spillproof May 07, 2004 06:57 PM

Ok if this ones 8-12 weeks.. we have a normal (high yellow) female that is a little over a year old.. big though.. 10-11 inches...

Anyway, how long till we can put the new one with her without fear of it becoming dinner? Stryke (the HY) will put away 2 or 3 superworms at a time if you let her..

10-11"? Thats abnormally large for a year old leopard.

More likely than not, your 10" leo is a so-called "giant" (a dichotomous genetic trait). I would definately not put your smaller animal with the 10". The little one will definately turn into lunch.

A giant leo? I think shehe'd know if it was a giant by the abnormally large price tag, lol. I wouldn't put them together until they reach the same size, or very near to the same.

it certainly would be expensive, but there's no other explanation for an 11" leo...

I can think of one... Human error, lol
