I just had a de-ja-vu moment.. flashback to three years ago when I first saw Murphy’s mugshots ???

Is Large Marge still looking female?
So far yes still looking female. She's currently living in Murphy's indoor enclosure while Murphy is living outside. If I can acquire an adult female before winter they'll probably all soon live together. Assuming Murphy is able to behave himself ?

Thanks again Ray, I've tried my best with what I've learned here. How is Opo coming along? I bet he's big now!
Opo is doing fine. In June he weighed in just over 54lbs. I imagine he is close to 60lbs now. He does something new every week that amazes me. He is a gift that keeps giving.?

Your Marge is a beast!
None of my hatchlings reaches 1 kg yet even though they are nearing their third year, yet Marge easily clear the milestone before its second birthday.

I am not sure whether This is because mine are just not kept under the most optimum condition, or yours is just a prodigious grower.

May I know what incubator you used to hatch Marge?

They all grow at different rates, I think genetics plays a big part. The incubator I used is called the Hova-Bator and I got it from a website called Incubator Warehouse.
