Hey everyone! I just got a new leopard gecko a few weeks ago. He is from Dan Uremovic and I think he is around 3-4 months and he's a jungle. I named him Juan :) (after the hurricane that hit our province, for you non-Canadians). He is a great eater and he's scarfing down way more then my female Ying, who is around 2 years old. He shed just 2-3 days ago and now he is going into shed again! I never remembered my other leos growing this quick! Is this normal growth for a male this age?
Thanks!
Adam
ps. Thanks again Dan for the great leo! I'll put up a pic of him soon...

They shed when they outgrow their skin. So it is normal if it does eat like a pig. I have had some that will shed avery week for about a month now. I think it's a good sign.

my babies always shed about once a week for the first few months, then slow down.
