Toothless & Nia's Health
I weighed and measured my two other females, they are older than Yuna and Rikku.
I'll start with Nia, I got her at the end of 2007 she was young and had some problems, toes were the biggest problems, she had problems shedding, she had a cave dropped on her back, and she survived mouth problems throught the years I've had her. She is still with us and couldn't be happier that she is, even through all that.
I would assume now she is about 4 1/2 years old.
She was measured about 7 inches.
Here is her weight.
Some picutres, she is a tubby butt.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Toothless is a girl, she is about 6 1/2 inches long and she is about a little over 9 months old, I bought her on 11/07/2010.
Here is he weight.
And some pictures.
Are they both healthy? They are great, despite Nia health history, she is a great lizard and my tamest.

Re: Toothless & Nia's Health
I think there is something odd about the scales.
There is no way that girl is only 51g ... she is built healthily with good fat stores. If she is a fully grown adult (and she is at over 4 years old) then if she was only 51g then she would be a lot skiinier than that.
And also the 32g one... she looks like a nice healthy female... and when i have a gecko at that size and age she is normally around 70g.
Im honestly not saying it is anything to do with your care or that your females are too underweight, because looking at them they are clearly not, and look completely healthy.
But their weights are not right surely.

Thanks, I thought that too, let me try a different scale and see what I can find out for you.

Didn't notice you said 51, its actually saying 57/58, i jumped to 57 during the photo.
I weighed her again today, 59-60 grams is what it saying now.

Either way, I would say those are some very healthy looking leos. I have seen them in all sorts of bad shape and good shape working with rescues and these are very nice looking leos.
