    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!

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

    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!
