I have a one year old sulcate his name is igore. I think he's big for his age I'm not really sure he's my first. He's 5.5 inches long He's really healthy eats like a pig and I live in the desert so it's perfect for him. I'm not sure if it's bad for them to grow to fast.

The desert is perfect for them if you are simulating the hot humid rainy season of the African Desert. Fast growth is only bad if its in the wrong conditions (too dry). His size seems normal to me. Can we see a pic? Try tinypic.com for posting pics.

Here are some threads I put together:
