How big are your adult Meraukes (and other types)?

Hello, my Merauke keeping friends!

I've been looking at some Meraukes online lately and wondering about them. Specifically I've been wondering how much bigger they are than our little Halmaheras.

I'm beginning to suspect that Zipper and Scout are just about full grown. Zipper seems to hang around the 500-600 gram weight range and Scout is usually somewhere in the 700-800 gram range.

It has been a long time since I measured them, but the last time they were about 22" from tip to tail. I suspect they've grown since then but probably not much. I'd have to guess they're somewhere around the 24" mark give or take.

If you don't mind, I'd love to hear the "stats" for your animals (of any type really) but especially your Meraukes.

Thanks in advance!

Noodles, my love of my life BTS is amazing! He is 24 inches give or take and around 500-600g. I haven't weighed him recently and probably should. He has the absolute sweetest personality and is so good.
