Panther sizes?

[AlexKnight]

Just popped into pet shop to get my veiled's food and saw some panthers. One of them was literally about an inch big.

Is that a standard size for babies or could this one be a bit poorly. Looked abit weak aswell :/

Any thoughts?

Could be that he is just unhealthy, but also could be that someone sold him to the pet store way too soon and he is just very young..

I wouldn't get one that small, especially if it looks a little weak. It was probably sold to a pet store at a very young age and is therefore more likely to have problems or fail to thrive.

As babies they should be thriving, eating well etc. If not there may be issues present

This particular one looked as if it was yawning constantly. Possibly a breathing problem? It literally looked like it had just hatched, bulging eyes and walking like a drunken huntsman!

I wan't going to buy one, but my female veiled is pregnant and I spoke about selling her babies to them. I was a bit concerned about selling to them but I think it is probably like you said, sold too young.
