Kirmy and Alberto weight update and a question.

jasonw Nov 17, 2005 01:28 PM

Well all seems well, Kirmy is still not eating to much but last time I took the mesurment on 10/27 she came in a 25.0g todays she came in at 30.1g so I am guessing that is very good. Alberto to has become a monster on 10/27 he weighed 12.7g and today he came in at an astonishing 18.1g Todays weight was taken rght after a feeding of 6 mealworms. Do you think that is why there is such a diference? Maybe I should only take weights on full or empty stomaches? hmmmm

Whichever way you do it, I would be consistent. It would probably be much more accurate if you take the weights on empty stomaches if you want to see their progress.

I'm glad to hear they are both gaining weight, sounds like you are doing a good job I do take the weights of my Leos before I feed them.
