Starting second shed

[Monties1982]

My 4 month old montium is just starting his second shed . I took this pic of him tonight before lights out.

You can see the skin shedding on his horn and the skin around his eye just starting to loosen. I also finally picked a name for him, Thomas Cernunos. I picked it because Thomas means twin and Cernunos was a Celtic God whose name means horned. I'll try to get more pics of him once he's in full shed and post them.

He is such a cute little punkin. I had no idea he would still be that small at 4 months.

He weighs 2.23g now. When he hatched, he weighed 0.54g. The past few weeks, he's been putting on some good weight. The last four weeks I've weighed him, he weighed 1.54g, 1.87g, 2.02g, then 2.22g. You're probably more used to quads, too. My male quads each weigh about 100g, but montiums only get up to about 25g.
