Sorry. Didn't mean to mislead.

Here you go. A little invasion of privacy!! :)

@laurie they aren't related. Caroline is CB and Taco is WC and been in my care for 2 years.

@Scottsquatch no that has nothing to do with the sex. Melleri are one of the species that you cannot determine sex by outward appearance. Taco is 100% male. Best way to establish sex besides a vet visit with x-ray is to try and catch them pooping. Boys will expose their male parts as they are...

So I recently created a new habitat for both of my Meller's to live communally in. Caroline is up to 18" horn to tail and weights around 145 grams at 1 year. She is going to be a monster! CB from @jpowell86 clutch. Taco is right at 24" and weights roughly 350-400 grams. Hard to know weight...

Hey guys! Sorry it has been so long! Winter is a busy time for me. Caroline is doing amazing! She eats dubias or crickets daily. She loves to hang out in the canopy of her plant under the basking lamp. Below are some pictures and weekly measurements over the past months. Her little horn is so...

18 Weeks: 6.7 grams She has consumed about 6 baby dubia/hisser roaches a day for the past week. I think most of her weight is coming in the form of stretching out. she looks to be about 6 to 7 inches now. Still not plumping up yet, but it is coming. @jpowell86 , question, Have you shown your...

17 Week Update: Everything is looking great. Weight: 6.21 grams

@jpowell86 last Friday at 16 weeks she weighted 5.8 grams. With the food she has eaten since then I would say she is easily over 6 grams now. I weight her every Friday so I will update then. She loves silkworms and crickets. Put in some waxworms and mealworms with no luck this week.

Well she finally had her first shed in my care yesterday. She will be 16 months old tomorrow. She is starting to drink a lot more (or at least I am catching her) over the past week. She took down 5 XS dubias yesterday and has eaten 6 1/4th inch crickets dusted with Calcium today. I think she is...

14 Weeks - Taking down silkworms, crickets, and baby dubias daily. No signs of shed yet, but I have a feeling it is close. 4.94 g That's a growth of 1.3 g in the 2 weeks I've had her. Behavior notes: 1. Sleeps on same limb every night 2. Not a big fan of the misting system. Will drink daily but...

That is strange. Mine took down most of the dubias walking through the enclosure rather than in the feeder cup. Good luck.

I took weight and measurements from Friday. Here is the growth and food intake from the 1st week in my care. Weighted 3.66 g when I got her on 11-4-16 Weighted 4.52 g on Friday 11-11-16 (growth of almost 1 gram in 7 days) Here is what she ate last week: 11-4 - 4 crickets and a silkworm 11-5 -...

Mine has been very curious too

Put in a feeder cup today at lunch. She found it about 30 minutes later and sat on the rim for about an hour. She took down 5 crickets in the hour. Crazy how much she is eating. I bet she has consumed a forth of her boast weight over the past 2 days.

Funny happening from today in regards to feeding. She took down 4 crickets and later a nice sized silkworm. When I put in a small dubia she started to bob and shake like crazy. It was cute!

I am hoping to make another enclosure out of PVC and plastic fence material. I am hoping to house Taco and my new little girl together. She just took down a silkworm. I havent taken my eyes off of her all day! I cant imagine having 41 to care for. I have a new found respect for @jpowell86 !

Here is a picture of her enclosure. I have a little more work to do on it this evening. Taco's is to the right.

So this morning my baby Melleri arrived in great shape. Joel had a professional reptile shipping company ship her with her history, feeding schedule, and supplement schedule all enclosed. She weighted 3.66 g She is 5" from snout to tip of tail. I'm referencing her as a she because I REALLY...
