Update on Gamja the axanthic

Postby krmike » Fri Dec 25, 2015 3:15 am

So, its been a little over a month since I got Gamja. Just thought I would toss up some new photos.

Last week Gamja went into shed. No shedding problems, came off mostly in a single sheet! Wasnt sticking to the fingers (as it was when i got him/her). After the shed, the skin on its back is MUCH better. Things are much more smooth, no more discoloration or rough spots. Still some issues, but much better. I guess after another shed or 2 it will look normal.

Also, look at the size difference! Gamja got fat! I dont think I am feeding too much, but wow, chunky monkey! What do you think? Is he/she too fat?

Thanks!
I was amazed at how well he ate that squash. It was the first time he just devoured a non-meat product! Usually i have to mix the green stuff with the meat stuff haha.

Anyways! Happy holidays all!

Looks a lot better, it doesn't matter to much of them getting chubby when they are still growing they will just turn that fat into energy to grow mainly watch the weight when they are fully mature.

I thought you said it wasn't sticky the last time?

Anyways, good job. Hopefully he'll continue to do well.

No no, not sticky, but sticking up... as in very rough feeling. Now it feels very smooth to the touch.
