Well it's her tail that seems to be the largest part of her body. She does seem to be rather rotund but what he describes as weight doesn't seem to be out of range.

Maybe pics really do add 30lbs.. :)

He may just feed her garbage though.. possibly a ton of pinkies and waxworms.. some are just fat though and some are skinny.. similar to humans..

I'm not so sure it's very healthy to keep your geckos that fat, although I have a 102 gram female Tremper (non-giant) that only gets fed weekly and still looks like Jabba the Hutt.

... I guess ome of us gals are just meant to be Reubenesque.

I actually have one on a diet! She has really packed on the grams since last season and I've heard big girls tend to lay less clutches. This female in particular laid 13 clutches last year! Maybe she's compensating for having laid so many eggs?

i have an 89 gram Blizzard female (non-giant) that eats like a horse.. She will only eat mealies. I give her 10-15 every other day and she immediately cleans her plate..
