We found our hatchling about 1 month ago, and he has only been eating a little over 1 week. We weighed him yesterday at 40.08 grams.The lenth of the carapace is 2-1/16" eyeballed with a ruler. We were getting worried because he was not eating for weeks. He finally started eating Romaine, and we are also giving him some grass, and other plants. We hope he continues to eat well and grow!

Aww, so cute. Glad he has finally started eating for you. Sorry if I am repeating myself, but Toms threads, below in my post, great reads for the proper way to raise a sulcata healthy and smooth.
