Zee at 6 months

[zeechiller]

Hi all Zee is 6 months now and 5 1/2" long. He may be growing slow but we still love him. Here are some pics of him, srry they are a little blurry I was taking them left handed. I just found out that he hates Mondays. I have been watching his behavior every Monday for a month and he is very grumpy on Mondays. He sqeaked-hissed at me this morning when I went to get him out of his cage. Hope you like the pics.

Nice little fellow! Does something different happen in his world on Mondays (e.g. you getting up earlier for work)? My guy seems a little suspicious on Saturdays and Sundays, when we're home and he doesn't get the house to himself.

Nothing unusual on Monday I stay home(lost my job) my husband goes to work, the kids go to school(one in band) soon. and yes he is small. His sister (same clutch) is twice as thick same length. He was born breach. He eats 2 to 3 silkworms when i have them and about 4 to 6 crickets a day.When i don't have the worms he eats 4 to 7 crickets depending on their size a day.

He's a little beauty! Looks like he has some personality too, lol! He is very small though!

Amy was 'grown slowly' by her breeder and was really tiny at 3 months old when I got her. She is now growing very nicely. Their bone density is higher than those that are over fed and grow too fast. Have you weighed and measured Zee since you got him? That way you'll know for sure that he's growing ok. My Mum says how much Amy has grown and she only sees her every couple of weeks - when you see them every day you don't notice how much they have grown!

Now Amy is more ok with being handled I am going to measure and weigh her every month to see how she's doing.

yes since i've had him he has grown about 2 1/2 inches. i haven't weighed him i don't have a small enough scale yet. Plus his aunt-mom, my sister-in- law(the one who hatched him) saw him last month and said he has grown alot. Not as much as his sister. She is thicker and wider but about the same length. He was a fussy eater when she had him he only wanted fruit flies. I've seen your pics of Amy she has grown. He is about the same age as her. He was yawning in that pic.
