Chunky monkey.?

So we got a kitchen scale for Toothless. He quickly became too big for the small scale we have. A few days ago, he weighed a solid 90g. Which is good, right.? We weighed him the following day, he gained a gram or two. That's fine, no big deal. I weighed him tonight, (only three days after his initial weigh) and it's reading 103g. Surely this boy did NOT gain 10 grams in a DAY. I'm chalking it up to that he had just finished eating when I did, but he only ate maybe ten crickets. Buuuuut they were fat and juicy crickets.

I dunno. Is he reaching overweight if that is an accurate reading and not just bloated from eating.? He's about 3 1/2 months.

He looks good- he's a growing boy

Is it normal for them to gain 10 grams in 24 hours, though.?

Dragons grow at their own rate- could be a growth spurt

They grow so quickly as babies! It’s probably a before/after poop thing. He’s so cute

I weighed him just a minute ago, I thought maybe it was bloating from eating but nope. Still 104. he eats like nobodies business and I've no clue where he puts it, besides his fat tail

It's definitely thiccc. With three c's. I swear that thing weighs as much as he does.

I'm glad you guys think he looks good. I know they're relatively hardy animals but I'm always afraid of doing something wrong

It's totally normal and around that age they can grow in length visibly as well.

We definitely noticed that. We got him a month and a half ago and he was 6 *maybe* 7 inches, if that. Now, he's like 13 inches long. It's crazy

So I weighed him again and it went from 103 yesterday to 113 today.?? Surely that can't be right

 

[AHBD]

That's so wild. He gained 10 grams a week over since September 18th, then by October 2nd, it went from like 55 to 90 something then it was 10 a week and now it's 10 a day. He definitely looks rounder
