Cheers dude. I've still got to put the fascia on to make it look a bit more tidy. The temps in the two vivs on top had a bit of a funny 5 mins but seem to be settling again slowly. Might have to get a sheet of thermoboard between them to stop G's temps bleeding into Sherman and The Hoff's vivs. It'll get there eventually |

He looks big, but I don't know how big your bath is, need photos of you holding him |

Not sure if he has gained much length but he feels like he has bulked out a lot since the last pic . |

WOW - this is one great topic, just spent half hour reading through, and what a lovely photo diary you have of your animal, viv looks amazing and looks like you've done great work with him too.
Nice work, really awesome to see, keep the pics coming :D |

Thank you. I won't lie, because the whole point of this thread is to tell people the truth about these beasties, it has taken one hell of a lot of time and patience to get him to this stage but it is soooo worth it. Working on the basic dog training commands with him at the moment. Next time I get him out for a handle I'll try and get some pics of the state of my forearms afterwards . |

Ta daaaaa:
My apologies for being a mouth breather in the pics. Bit of a cold man-flu at the moment . Couldn't measure him this time out because my 5 year old was freaking him out. It hurts when G freaks out . |

Thank you. With him being a male, when he's fully grown, he'll be about 5 foot of muscle, claws, teeth, whipping tail and attitude. That's the main reason why it is so important to get the taming done and gain their trust before they get big enough to do too much damage. I saw his teeth properly for the first time today. I think we can safely say that if the mood took him I'd be needing stitches from now on. |

That's quite some growing he's been doing! How long do you think it'll take him to get to adult size? |

They have two major growth spurts in the first 18 months, approx, of their life when they get most of their growing done. It all slows down after that, thank god . |
