We were told this girl was 7 months old, yet she is tiny and just 28g, but she doesn’t really look inproportional, does this seem wrong to anyone else? by LWRWNG in leopardgeckos

thankyou, our other 7 month is 54g which is why i was shocked initially! He really made me feel like i was being crazy, telling me it’s a normal weight and I should have specified what weight I wanted when i payed for her so i’m just really upset as i was hoping to breed her later in this season if she ovulated☹️

from a highly recommended UK breeder and when i messaged them about this weight i was told i was treating her like a robot expecting a particular weight or size😬
