Hey everyone! Just wanted to show off my newest addition and ask a few questions. I just got little Mack Sunday at a reptile expo. He's 48g and about 2 1/8" long. They didn't know his Hatch date, but I'm assuming late December or early January? Looks and acts very healthy, and is pretty active. He's got his first vet appt tomorrow just to make sure he's as healthy as he seems.
He does seem to have a small underbite, and is having some issues biting and tearing his greens (I've started finely chopping his romaine and dandelion so it's easier for him). Is the underbite something I should be concerned about or something he'll grow out of?

I don't know the answers to your questions. When he goes to the vet, don't let him give any vitamin shots to Mack. He doesn't need them, and the shots can do harm.

In case you haven't seen it, here's our care sheet. BTW, Mack is adorable!

Thank you! I'm absolutely in love. Like I said, he seems healthy. He ran around like a tiny tank eating most of the day yesterday. I was going to start him on energy other day calcium and vitamin supplements on his food like I do with my home's hingeback. He is just the cutest little thing.
