Re: Littlefoot & Cera (New video & pictures)







By the looks of the water dish, you would think we never clean it. Not true, 5 minutes after I change it, they mess it up again.

Re: Littlefoot & Cera (New video & pictures)

Man they're looking just fantastic. They're looking like they're going to be giants, based on how fast they've been growing so far.. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they hit five feet by the time they're done.

Agreed.. Chomper was just about 1 meter (yard) long.

Littlefoot will probably only be a little bit bigger than he was.

The growth spurt has slowed a little recently.

Ah okay, I'm just going by the pictures so you probably have a better idea of their growth rate.

The tail base seems rather solid (muscular) when I grasp it.

Not sure, does it seem mis-proportioned?

I was asking matey because as they get bigger there spurts become fewer but bigger...

So they build up a fat reserve then use it in there next growth spurt.

Thats what ive always seen with my varanids.

Ah, OK.. got it now.

I will pay closer attention.

All I have noticed is that recently they have stabilized somewhat as far as gaining length.

Re: Littlefoot & Cera (New video & pictures)

when I see bulk, I am slowing down on the chow, I don't want bulbous lizards.
