Just realized howmuch my gu has grown

Do you ever realize how much your gu has grown just by looking back at what you used to feed them and what they eat now?
Just fed ollie, He ate 3 adult mice a hand full of super worms and a bunch of crickets.
I remember when I was scared to feed him a pinky because it looked huge! when he would look fat from a turkey ball the size of the tip of my pinky and 5 crickets. wow, what a difference, and he isn't even that big yet!

I want to hear your similar stories!
What did you feed when you first got your gu and what do you feed now?

Yeah I remember when I got Samson she was eating Mice pinks. I remember when she went to Rat pups I thought that was a huge step. Now she is eating Sm-Med Rats.

It goes by pretty fast in hindsight.

I also remember when she would just eat a few tiny pieces of egg and Salmon. Now she can eat a whole egg in one sitting easy. :-D

I got my hatchling from Bobby at 6 weeks old in the summer of '08... It was an adorable little 9" dude with a green head...

I met a local guy who got a 6 week old hatchling from Bobby in the summer of '09... I brought my guy over and we held them in the same room. It was amazing to see the comparison after just one year...

I truly hope to see a '10 hatchling some time this summer to again make this comparison. Because at 44" and 7+ pounds my little guy just doesn't seem "little" any more! But seein gthem side by side I'm sure I'll be amazed...
