Re: sav vs tegu feeding behavior

at a rough guess...using the silicone edge as a guide, approx 8-10mm thickness of a standard glass tank, i'd say his body is 5-6inches, add another 10 for his tail - its easy to underestimate a tail tength when it is thin, perhaps this is why

15-16 inches total length

I'd estimate a growth of 8-9inches in a month for your Tegu (maybe 7-8 coz I think ur marks are slightly off)

1 month and 6 days = 5.5 weeks

so thats about 1.5-1.75 inches per week


my Sav grew close to 1inch a week during 2 of his early growth spurts, so even still, its a massive growth rate!
