At what size would you move a leopard baby in with the herd of yearlings?
She just turned 4 months old and is 156g.
I ask this because she already needs an enclosure upgrade and I'm considering setting up another lifetime raised garden bed conversion like I did with my yearlings, and splitting them into two groups based on size. Three larger ones in one enclosure and the three smaller ones in the other enclosure. Five of them will be outside most days soon and coming in at night, back into their humid chamber, leaving the baby to stay in the humid chamber except for an hr or so each day.
Here is the enclosure. I am wanting to set up a second one to separate them by size to give them more space while inside. (Which soon will be only be at night, inclement weather, and winter)
Here is the 4 month old baby next to my smallest yearling for size comparison. She would be with this yearling and one that is 40-ish grams heavier but visually the same size as this yearling. Is she large enough now or should I wait until she reaches a larger size?
