Had a full enclosure clean today so decided to measure and weigh our girl. She is now 50cms and weighs 682gms.

She looks great, a perfect size. Those condensed wood pellets are an excellent substrate for blueys, I used that a lot when mine were inside. The enclosure looks terrific, she looks almost as if she's smiling and saying 'thanks for tidying in here'!

She looks awesome! I still don't understand exactly what the average size is for the different types of blotched. Is she typical size for a Blue Mountain form?

She would be the biggest of the three although I haven't weighed and measured them for a while.

I'm not sure as to size either Jeff, Richard would know that better with his collection for comparison. Clancy is not as big as the wild girl who has had a few litters in our yard over the past several years, but I mostly see that one when she is gravid. I sighted one I assumed to be female near our door about 5-6 years ago who was the biggest I have seen. She would have been close to 60cms and a huge girth, almost one and a half times the body size of Clancy.

Oola is the greater poser when there is a camera around. :D

I'm really pleased with Clancy though considering how she was when we first got her. :love: She is very mellow now, there wasn't even a huff when we picked her up to clean the enclosure.

Shes certainly flourished in your care norm,they all look great

Jeff its hard to say,over all northern ones are bivver on average,but ive seen some big ones of all kindsso all capable of being large,northern forms though appear to do it consistantly,lowlands its a mixed bag with alot seeming to stop at a way smaller size

Clancy is about normal for her age, my girls are about 50-60cm long and between 800g-1000g. Bigger and heavier after they had their first litters. I'm sure there are lot of girls out there who can identify with that. ;-)
