Mali's: How slow do they grow?

AlteredMind99 Nov 16, 2005 03:04 PM

I was just wondering...are Uro's relatively slow growers? I mean, comparitively to lizards that eat more insects? I ask because it seems as if Scuttle is growing much slower than most baby lizards i have had...he eats great is active and alert (very active!)...but has only gained a gram or so since coming home....

what do you think?
