My male is around 17 inches and about 300g. I think he is around 2 and a half years old.
I have had him for about a year and have had a couple problems. When i first got him, he took quite a long time to settle in and he didn't eat too much either. After that, a few months ago he had a bad mite problem, due to there being a lot in some wood chips from pets at home. I tried everything and after a month or so, I was able to fully rid of them. He did not eat much through this period as well as i think he found it stressful due to the things we had to do to try and treat him so much.
He eats fine now, and has 4-8 locusts per day as he sometimes likes to eat a lot! I feed him greens occasionally and trying to get him to eat more as he has never been too keen. I would like to know how to fatten him up and get to a healthy size.
Please leave any tips you have.
Thanks,
Ben
