Weight gain

[herriotfan]

Can you please tell me the average weight gain for a young cherryhead redfoot tortoise over a period of approximately a month?
Thanks

I always expect about 10% a month until they plateau somewhat as adults.

That is weight not length.

Thanks.
My little one has gone from 30 grams to 42 grams in six weeks.

That sounds great. Closer to 20%. Don't worry about small fluctuations. With such little guys a good poop can blow your growth curve.
