His head looks in that pic to be goin a bit grey thats usualky the sign that thier gonna shed, if he hasn't for that long hes due one. mine is almost ten month s old is 17 inches and is 305 grams if that helps .how often do you bath him ?

 

[Danny nicholas]

I'm bathing him twice a week so I'll keep it up until he has shed thanks for your help

Cool he'll let you know if he s not ok. heres specs after head an back shed just before legs an tail he always sheds the same way .

If you wanna fatten him up a girl on here gave me a great tip because my boy was a bit skinny. I ve started to put about 4 waxworm s in with his salad once every fews days he loves them an eats more salad now because he thinks there in there, thier very high in fat so they cant be fed every day they could also get too fusy ,but its worked specs has gone from 236 grams to 305 in five weeks make sure its wax worms though other s are not recommended

I wouldn't worry too much. My girl just turned 1 year and went through a tail shed (which was funny because she was in a tail shed when we got her!) but she hadn't shed in about 6 months! When we got her she was in a constant shed, we never knew what her true color was LOL!

You're boy looks good!

No worries wax worms are great you get lots in a tub ,they only eat a bit of any greens yr dragon eats to keep them alive an because you dont feed many they last ages
