Hi could anybody tell me what my 5year old horsfield should roughly weigh.She is nearly 4inches long and also my 18month old who is just under 3inches long? Just interested thanks
This formula is considered pretty accurate for what their weight should be:
(length cm x width cm x height cm) x .57 = weight in grams
Make sure you measure accurately. The shell only is measure. For instance in height, you just measure the shell itself, not how high off the table it can get (tippy toes just don't work on this formula ). The length is the SCL (straight carapace length), not over the top of the shell (carapace). Same applies for the width.
