Hello,
Depends of the recently grow stage of the lizard.
In my personal documentations I see that one lizard hatched 25 Jan 2010, total feeded in a year with 1356 grams of prey, at the end of the year had 18 cm and total weight 177 grams.
Another 2 lizards hatched on Jan 2011 and both feeded with 1090-1100 grams of prey, at the end of the year the one was 32 cm, and the other 33 cm. The first one was 169 gr and the other 166 gr respectively.
The first case's specimen, the second year feeded with 1647 gr prey and with this food mass took 22 cm more growth and 488 more grams, with total weight 620 grams and 53 cm.
And so on...
