this is my only leopard gecko its a male.. he weight at 98 grams it seems a lot
i dont feed him fatty food.. mostly cricket and mealworm
i think he may have some giant in it he does look much bigger then the few other live leo i saw this is why im not sure if hes overweight or just normal weight and bigger size.. he does not seem to have fat pocket behind the arms or fat wrist but im really not an expert on the breed

Its pretty easy for a leopard gecko to reach 80 grams+. He probably does have some gaint genes in him. From the pictures, I wouldn't even think hes 98 grams. If your really worried you can reduce feedings, but i don't think you have anything to worry about right now.

he wont go on a diet im glad he seems fine
when he weighted at 98 and i saw average weight was 45 to 65 gram i freaked out a bit
so im going to assume hes just bigger then average and the weight increased accordingly
thank you for your time and taking a moment to answer

He looks great, it looks like he doesnt have any hint of the armpit bubbles, which I know are a sign of fattiness.
