Hello, everyone. I recently got a female baby Nosy Be Cham about 2 weeks ago and I have been free ranging her. I have been told to weigh her when free ranging to make sure she is gaining weight. I guess I just need some opinions on proper weight gain. Now I admit I did not weight her when I first brought her home. But last week she was 4 grams. and now this week she is 5 grams. Is that enough / a good gain? I cricket proofed the heck out of my cage so the crickets really have no where to hide. I put 20 crickets in her cage per day for good measure and then remove every last straggler before lights out. So on average I am removing 7-10 per day, so she is getting probably about 10-13 crickets per day. One day I was missing 17 crickets?! Strangely enough that same day was her multi-vit day. Anyway, she was 4 grams and she is now 5 in one weeks time I figure that's a 25% weight increase, but just wanted to get input on if it was enough.
Thanks!
Thanks!
