Biggins Thread

[tommylee22]

Ok I figure I should just make a Biggin thread with all the info and updates on his growth. I'll start with as most of you know he's growing to be huge. He eats a wide range of whole ground foods and insects, some fruits but very little. I got Biggin July 9th and you will see his size in pics below and also his progress all the way up to today the Aug. 26th. It's going to blow your mind!!!!!!

Oh I'll be having to up size his 40 breeder already, was told it would last 8 months to a year, whatever!!! didn't last two months lol.


Check him out I'm very proud of him and he is so sweet, has never shown any aggression and always a sweet personality. He's a BIGGIN!

Ok as before pics by date.

Biggin is a Bobby Hill Extreme

He hatched on the 13th of Jun. I got him the 9th of July so I've had him two months on the 9th of September. so two months old back on the 13th if you want to count from the day he hatched.

He grows so fast, I've had people ask where is the baby one at, I tell them "this is the same lizard you saw a couple weeks ago" they ask if I'm joking and continue to say seriously.... lol It's just amazing how fast he really is growing.

 

[Logie_Bear]

Wow, I didnt realize he was from the same clutch as Ezzy. What a difference! I am floored. D:

He looks amazing tho. I hope Esmeralda starts getting more whites on her like Biggun is. Did you name him Biggun before or after you realized he was a huge piggy?

I know right he's just getting huge. I named him after my first reptile as a kid, I had a green iguana named Biggin. I named him this before he got here and it seems to be a dead ringer name for this guy lol.

What a fatty. What exactly are you feeding him?

What a fatty. What exactly are you feeding him?

I'll just paste this from other forums

So each day he gets something dif. with my rabbit and turkey I also have whole ground quail eggs mixed into the meat. So it looks like this.

M= Turkey/quail eggs(blend) with a dubia or two
T= Rabbit with Dubias or two
W=Chicken/quail eggs(blend) with grapes
Th= Quail with dubias
F= Hamburger with calcium suplament -D3.
S=Fuzzy or two with horn worms or dubia
Su= Fuzzy or two with posible fruit option(note he may only take one or two bited of fruit, he's not a fan).

Thats about it and the order changes up and depending sometimes I liketo bring him new stuff like chicken gizzards ect

How long is he now? He looks absolutely gigantic - mine is around 18".

 

[tommylee22]

Biggin is 24" maybe a little more that was mid last week lol yea he grows that fast.. He shed this weekend.

Biggin just had his first treat outside of his diet, a small chunk of a raw hotdog lol dude acted like it a kid to ice cream for the first time lol He might have to get a bite of that from time to time when we have hotdogs lol.

 

[tommylee22]

Well today Biggin was a little lazy, he didn't want to come out and enjoy his bath, he ate then I sat him in his enclosure for a min and he then went in his borrow and didn't cone back out . I guess he just wanted to nap today.

 

[chitodadon]

Same with Zeus today its like he knew it was going to rain so he hid

Amazing! I love how clearly the stripes are coming out! I don't think I've seen that before.

Would you say he's definitely gotten calmer, not just with time, but with size?

 

[HeatherN]

wow Tarots only 16 inches long! same clutch, that sure is a biggin, he looks like hes a yearling!

 

[kinggill]

That is very fast growth..WOW...looks super healthy!

 

[tommylee22]

Biggin is tearing up the Dubias today. had his bath and is now just basking after his monster attack on the cup of large dubias he just destroyed. Life is good in his eyes.
