I was wondering if anyone can give me a ballpark age when Leos lose their egg tooth. I bought what I was told was an eight week old on Feb 7th. The baby only weighed in at 26 grams and still had its egg tooth. Today, the egg tooth is still visible. I also got what I KNOW to be an eight week old from a friend a few days later....no visible egg tooth and weighing in at 39 grams.....already starting to show some "leoparding" in her shell.
I'm just wondering if they lied about his age, or if he was started that badly and hasn't grown enough to lose it yet??? (I call them "he" and "she" because they don't have names yet.....lol)
