When i went and got Kayla yesterday i made sure i got a guided tour..lol..
I noticed a big difference in size between royals that were feeding on live and mine feeding on F/T
for the most part the live feeders were growing really really well...so made me wonder if they do breed younger in the wild, assuming they can get prey of course... |

| Yes they probably breed younger in the wild, doesn't mean they are healthy or even live. |

were the F/T not growing well???
also in the wild i bet they dont get feed every 7 days so may take a little longer to grow. |

yeah but when you look at a royal the same age as say P the difference is not massive, but they have grown nicely... |
