Tapioca Progression Thread!

MissterDog, are his eyes blue? It's hard to tell on mine, we took some photos in natural light today and he seems to have dark blue shale eyes. So beautiful!

I feel very lucky, both our boys have been voracious eaters, switching from live mice to f/t rats. How big/old is your guy now?

His eyes are a bit more silver than blue with a darker gradient at the bottom. I haven't been able to get any good pictures of him yet since unboxing day, but the best photo I have of his eyes is this one.


Tappy is getting close to 9 months old! When we got him he was weighed at 126 grams. He actually gained a little weight since his breeder last told me his weight! A month before he was shipped he was 118. So it will be interesting to see how much more he'll grow when I get more feedings until my belt!

Happy to hear you've had smooth sailings on switching to f/t!

I can't believe Maze is almost the same weight... and he's so much older.... But he looks a lot bigger in the hand than she does?? How does that make sense? (Maybe she's longer than she is chubby, I don't know. She's already approaching 2 ft.)

Also I can't help but coo every time I see him, he is just such a pretty baby. Precious shy boy.

I was actually really surprised how small he was in person! In the photos (I guess because of the angles?) I was expecting him to be a bit bigger but when I held him, he was pretty cute and dinky for what I thought a hatching his size would be! No complaints here of course! I love him ;_; I wonder if it's also the positioning of their body that might throw us off? How much is Maze weighing at now? I could have sworn it wasn't that long ago she was under 80 grams! She grow!

Empty she was 108 before her last meal, after she was 116, so she's catching up fast. Right behind your boy there lol. It could also be my hands, I have big hands :/ (this just occurred to me XD). Back on topic though, she was 80 not even a month ago. Them rats r YUM!

We managed to get a quick cute but potato quality photo of Tapioca on feeding day! He was actually smelling around for his mouse this time! He still hid afterwards but he ate
