Three-week Old Sulcata Enjoying Sunshine & Lunch

[Maro2Bear]

I too am in maryland!!! But I just got my little girl So she is not near the size of yours. Mine only started at 38 grams and now weighs in at 41/42 grams :d I have had her for a week almost two

Best of luck with your new 'lil Sully. If you have any questions, give me a shout! Ours is gaining about one pound per month now!

Wonderful.
Glad he made the 5 pound mark. Congratulations. I have a feeling that another 5 pounds is not too far off in the future.

mine is not really gaining at the moment. She is sleeping like crazy and kinda stopped eating. She eats some mazsuri on the days that I feed it but the past two days shes just been sleeping a lot. I feed her in the morning, then soak her, then I spray her tank three times a day and then I let her walk around the yard at night and graze. She weighed 38 grams 2 and a half weeks ago and now she weighs 40/41 grams.

What substrate do you use?

Mostly coco coir, the kind that comes in bricks and expands when water is applied.

You don't really leave your lil guy grazing around the yard at night, do you.

Oh, Good! That's what I use

No I mean in the evening time I let her walk around when I watch her outside. Sorry I should have been more specific. It's getting too cold now to take her out though

Here's our graph of time vs weight gain. You can see a more dramatic increase started at about the 9 month old mark.

Awesome thread! I just got my first 3 month old hatchling a few days ago. I was also planning on keeping a journal of his growth. Thank you for sharing, on top of the care sheets on this forum this helps a lot.
