I don't know why, but my baby male chacoan hasn't gotten that much bigger....I mean, he has grown lengthwise, but I don't think he's anywhere as big as he should be.
I believe he's trying to go into hibernation now. Up until a few day ago, he has been eating like a pig. He over the past few days has seemed to want to be left alone for the most part, and has been spending more time under the dirt, although not exclusively quite yet.
He gets plenty of UV, and usually gets several rodents several times a week, and has access to crickets almost 24/7, but I try to not leave too many in there when he's not actively hunting, as I don't want to stress him out.
I'm not sure exactly how long he is, but I put him on a dvd case for size reference. I took this today.
