    Unhappy Some Thinner Guys

    Perhaps this is gender, because the ones who are thinner tend to amplex the others. However, I'm a bit concerned with some that look slimmer. I tong feed them on a schedule regularly with gutloaded crickets, and have recently given some horned worms (soft moth larvae) as a dietary suppliment (along with the dustings, of course). Everyone is very active, darting around the tank and having HUGE appetites.
    Should I be concerned or do you think it is simply physical gender differences?

    I can/will post photos in the empty cleaning tank for some reference when my phone is properly charged

    they look healthy to me my brown male looks skinner than all my others he is also my biggest pig. the males never seem to keep on much weight keep an eye out that he is eating great but I would guess its just the fact that males are almost always a few grams lighter then the females and shaped differently

    He doesn't look bad Males of most species tend to be skinnier anyways. I hope this helps!

    Thanks all! This is good news. I figured it just to be the difference between the sexes, as everyone seems healthy
