Small Geckos

[geckolover2006]

Three of my geckos (two females bought from the same place, and a male who is the offspring of one of the females) are small, weighing only 35 grams. All are adults, They eat and poo normally, and look fat and healthy. Is this something to worry about, or is this normal?

Do you know their age? If they are adults, 35 grams isn't a normal weight. Adult is usually considered anywhere from 1 year to 1 and 1/2 years. How much and what are you feeding?

Right.. I had a female that stayed pretty small for the longest time (around 35 grams), then finally grew to her adult size at the age of 1.5 years.. if your geckos are much older, I would def. be worried

Some leopard geckos also just grow slow. Telling us the ages will help also.

They are all well over 1 1/2 years-- I'd say about 4 for the two females and 2 for the male (my computer crashed and my records got destroyed, but I think thats right. I feed them between 5-10 crickets three times a week. They eat them all very eagerly and defecate normally. They look normal weight-- they are just small.
