Amos and Fiona's unofficial scale-baby thread

Artemis and Deandra are both very pretty. Artemis is still showing her beautiful receptive colors. Any signs Deandra might lay eggs?

Not yet. She just being her old self but I'm ready for her when she does

I’m ready for Lola too. She’s still little but got the beautiful receptive colors.

Still nothing from Emma. Still waiting, and ready for when she does.

Lil Louie is 7 months old today. He is a beautiful young man and weighs 100 grams now. Had a scare last month when he came down with coccidian and an intestional infection but 2 trips to the vet and 2 meds and he is doing well now. I am lucky that he likes to hiss at me when I put my hand in his cage because I had the syringe ready....when he hissed he got his meds. The fun began after being cleared by the vet...Sanitizing all of his cages. Everything is good to go now.

Arlo Update:
Wow, he is getting big!
108 grams! And a noticeable change in his size since a few weeks ago.
I had to start closing the door to his cage because I kept finding him over by the window, away from his lamps and water. He seems pretty grumpy about it but I’ve tried to make up for it by moving his cage closer to the window and by taking him outside more often. I also turned his misters into rain domes. He used to run from the misters when they kicked in and now he seems to be more laid back.
Health-wise, he’s doing well other than trying to make sure he didnt get dehydrated on the days he made his way over to the curtain rod.
Finally got him to eat super worms again and he still won’t eat any fruits or veggies I offer him, but I’ll keep trying.
Glad to see his brothers and sisters growing up so big and beautiful too!

My goodness, he does look like Lil Squirt!!! Lil Squirt loves hornworms, silkworms & medium super worms....sometimes he doesn't eat for a few days, but I've read that is normal for them.

Lil Squirt has become some a beautiful little guy.

Well I wasn't totally sure whether deandra was gonna lay anytime soon. She's eating and drinking but her demeanor was a little off. But luckily for me I have a Male so I held him up to the cage and she colored all up. So she will be laying soon.

Deandra is getting so big. Do you know how much she weighs? I hope all goes well with the egg laying.

Lil Squirt looks like his daddy when he's mad. I hate to see him stressed like this & hopefully I've fixed the problem with the window & his reflection. I know that stress is not good for them at all.

 

[Angelwolf]

What a big boy you are, squirt!! Your name doesn't quite for anymore, but it definitely adds character!

Emma weighs in at 71g today!! That's a huge increase from a couple of weeks ago. I am hoping that means she will soon be ready to lay her first clutch. She just finished her shed, too. She's been showing a lot of oranges and tans, but her eyes are always green. Looks like she has goofy little goggles on most of the time. She has become very accustomed to the new home and our routine, and even anticipates breakfast time. And boy, this girl will eat like a pig if I let her! She gets about 6 large adult crickets or supers every other day. Sometimes every day, if I think she needs it. She is so precious and sweet. I can't get over her wonderful temperament! I'm trying to get pics, but she's not cooperating at the moment. Veileds, I tell ya! LOL! I will post pictures of her as soon as she lets me!

I’d cut out the supers because they are very fattening. I only give my girls a small super maybe once a month. I would not feed more often than every 2 to 3 days. I would do all in my power to try to prevent egg laying. These girls can easily become egg bound and need surgery. Just incase do you have a good reptile surgent within driving distance? Did you get the pet insurance? These little girls worry me so much. I have still been able to keep Lola’s weight at 70 grams.
