Too Skinny?

[Spots]

Is she too skinny? She's about 16 weeks I believe. I got her a week and a half ago but she hasn't seem to gain any weight (I know I haven't had her long enough to tell) Does she just look skinny because she's still little or dos she look unhealthily skinny? Her arms are so tiny. I don't remember my other ones ever being this tiny.

Sorry that the pic is blurred. I took it quickly so I could ask lol

She looks a little underweight to me but I'm no pro. Usually they suggest wax worms to help get some fat on your leo.

Hopefully some others will chime in with their 2 cents.

Thanks

She is a little on the thin side.

Just keep her in a clean, healthy environment with plenty of food and Im sure she will perk back up. Waxworms are not always the best for getting critters to put on weight. Best thing is just to give them a well rounded diet of gut loaded insects.

With a bowl of mealies available all the time she will gain at a good rate as she grows. Juvies don't have the same "roundness" as adults. I've never had a need to use waxies on any of my animals, they gain weight and grow fantastic on mealies, then switch over to supers. Maybe she didn't have food available all the time before you got her and hasn't had the opportunity to eat to her little heart's desire
