ok, so back in November my mom (thinkmore) asked about Miami's size..since she was already 33.6" long when she arrived and a month later she shed, and measured at 36.1" long...several of us checking and rechecking the before and after measurments thinking this was not possable..every result being the same..she grew 2 1/2 inches and gained 20 grams after having her for only 1 1/2 months..suprise suprise...its been 1 1/2 months since then...and she is preparing to shed..again. any idea how old she would have to be to be growing so rapidly? and if she is gaining a few inches every month and half and she is already 3 feet long...just how big should I be expecting?! she is just your standard checkered garter.
