I have had Ziggy for about a year and a half now. i got her when she was about 2 months (guessing from her size). she has grown a decent amount since i've had her. she is 12" long from snout to tip of tail. she is actually MISSING about 2"-3" of her tail b/c the breeder said the other babies ate it. :? . I posted pictures of her below so you could get a good look. is she too small for her age? or is she a good length, and just has to fill out? does she look pretty healthy? thanks!
*unfortunately I thought my heat lamp had uvb, but it turns out it didnt.
i read that improper uvb exposure can lead to a growth stunt even with calcium
supplements. do you think this is the main reason she is small? two weeks ago
i went out and bought a reptisun 10.0 uvb tube for her!! so she has it now!!
p.s. she hasn't shown a single symptom of MBD(tremors, lumps,gummy joints/jaw)
unless growth stunt is one......

don't mind how she is laying..... she didn't like the measureing tape http://i925.photobucket.com/albums/ad96/ANK3_photo/22775_1395768974773_1248678894_3121.jpg?t=1266451293
