Lombardi the 5mo old Male Veiled... Update.

Well I posted some pics of this guy when I first got him a couple months back... And I figured it would be fun to post an update here for you guys... He is turning into one of the most amazing Veields I have ever worked with. I have never seen a 5 mo old Veiled showing the size and color this guy does. I recieved him at 2.5 months at 12 grams... He is growing like crazy... and now at around 5 and half months, he has just broke 100 grams. Both of his parents were HUGE veileds both Well over 200 grams!!! He is following suit for sure. I have followed several of his clutch mates... And I am convinced that I got the pick of the litter! I couldn't be happier.

I will post pics of his progression in cronological order... Let me know hwat you think!

Thanks for looking! Enjoy!

Damn dude....Im really impressed.


What do you feed them?

When he was small I was feeding him small Silk Worms, and hornworms, and the occasional dubia nymph. Now that he is getting bigger he gets 1-2 full sized Dubia a day, Silkworms and gutloaded supers inbetween as a treat, with the occasional hornworm. He hasn't had a single cricket since he has been in my possesion. I think the main factor in this guys growth was natural sunlight. I had him positioned next to an open window where he would get about 4-5 hours of direct natural sunlight a day. All of my chams get outside for natural sunlight whenever I have the time, it works wonders.

Thanks Pat... I appreciate the comment!
