Just took a couple pics of the little guy. His tank is littered with the calcium powder and cricket legs LOL. Im going to clean it out before lights out. Hes gotten more orange. He eats really well. About 50-60 crickets a day.
So I measured him today and he grew 1 1/4" since last sunday. He was 5.5" last week and today hes 6 3/4". Amazing how fast they grow. I also noticed hes going into another shed. His tale has gotten pale. He was bred for size so lets see how big he gets.
Any bd is amazing imo. I like his pattern. He seems really calm in water. My guy tries desperately to climb out like hes on fire or climbs up my hand and up my arm lol. I would have never been able to take a pic like that. Hopefully its just a hatchling thing and he phases out of it. Yours is a month older than mine. Mine turned a month old this tuesday that just passed. They look the same size. Would you be able to measure him and see exactly how long he is? Its good you got him so young. I think the younger the better. I got mine at 2 weeks old. When I breed my dragons I'll sell you a orange one for cheap if your still around the forums. But that wont happen for another 18 months LOL.
I tried to measure him this morning, but he wouldn't lay straight! He's between 9 and 10 inches now. He has been steadily growing since we got him (on May 17th). He was supposed to be about a month old then (according to PetSmart employee), so he's about to be two months, give or take a couple weeks.
He doesn't always act so relaxed in water. I bathed him Saturday evening, and he was doing these weird movements, almost like he was trying to swim in circles in the shallow water. The bowl doesn't fit him well anymore, so I need a bigger "bathtub" for him.

You have a cute one. The second pic doesnt show for some reason. Hes bigger than mine thats for sure. I went to petsmart in brooklyn yesterday to get a new 20 gallon tank for my female and they had these 3 beautiful babies. I even saw one leatherback! It was gorgeous I swear I almost bought it. I took a pic. The one to the far right is the leatherback. They all looked really good.
Finished setting up the other tank for my female. I put them side by side with basking spot on opposite ends. This location is only temp. When I build my Viv's I Will build a stand.
I see it, too! I don't know what I did .... Maybe copied the wrong link? That's Saint, my youngest of 3 cats. I was drinking a frosty shake and he was trying to look cute, so I would give him some. We just took him to the vet for his annual visit, and he weighs 16.2 pounds! He sure doesn't need any shake!
So I purchased my female. She's a orange hypo trans. She's 3 weeks younger than my male and only 1" smaller. She shipped out today and I will be getting her tomorrow. I will post pics of her. Stay tuned.
