Amazing Micro Hog

Roy Stockwell Aug 05, 2004 12:24 AM

This is the smallest one I've ever hatched in 15 years of breeding.
It weighs 2 grams. that's a Canadian 2 dollar coin it's sitting on. It's just
a bit bigger than a Susan B

It took 3 hours but that little guy in the background ate that pink backwards
I'm lucky to have a line that feeds so well, I guess.. thanks for looking!

Hi, to your experience, will he grow the same size as other does? Just being curious.

Cool photo, Roy. One time you said something about a “Loonie” and I didn’t have a clue.

It would be interesting for you to follow up on its growth. I suspect it will be like those half-sized ball pythons that grow up normally. But come to think of it, I’ve never kept any of those back, and am just going on what I have read in the past.
