I'm curious to the average weight of a leo at 1, 2, and 3 months of age. Post your results and see how they compare to others.

Our first leos were born 4 weeks ago and are 10g and 7g.

All geckos grow at different rates just like people, so it's hard to say what "normal" is.

Just like what Mel said, mine seem to vary a lot. I think they're all different.

Right now, I've got:

7 week old babies at 15 grams

5 week old baby at 11 grams

Here are some average ranges based on experience:

@Birth: 3-4 grams
@1mo: 6-9g
@2mo:10-14g
@3mo:15-20

(Ofcourse weight depends of each individuals care, but im sure these weights are true with atleast 75% of leos):main_thumbsup:

That seems about right. If I remember right there was a similar thread that came to the conclusion of about 5-10 grams of growth per month.

Interesting thread idea!

I don't know for sure how old my leo was when I got her, but she weighed 3 grams, and was 3 1/2 inches.

1 month (4 weeks) 18 grams

2 months (8 weeks) 35 grams

3 months (12 weeks) 48 grams.

These times were all measured from the day I got her.
