had frank nearly a month now and hes had 3 feeds in a row no problem
was 100g when i got him and has put on nearly 50g has got a little thicker and is about 22-23" long.
has a lovely Temperament, balls up in my had when i get him out but as soon as i put him down hes off exploring

I think they do - once my lot are eating regularly they pile it on, and then of course the heavier they get, the sooner they move up to the next prey size, and so it goes.

frank is now nearly 200g empty and has grown quite a bit and filling out well. im amazed how much hes grown in about a month an a half, will be needing a bigger viv before long. very happy

good to know its a nice amount of weight to put on per month, just out of interest roughly how heavy is a fully grown royal.
not sure whos happier me or him, already looking where i can put another viv for anonther royal
Royalbob Posted - 08/09/2011 : 10:42:41
great news chrisc. 40-50g/month is nice as well.
