    I know it's a she because when I poke her sometimes(Please don't hate me for it lol-- i do it gently) and pick her up from the sides and such. she never peeps and never opens her mouth. She never makes an un-mounting call like all males would. she seems to be growing but at a slower rate. Maybe it was the temps. Her temps were at 72degrees cause I thought that was the temp then found out its actually up to 75degrees that's when she grew bigger.

    I'd get roaches. But my parents would flip if I ever dared to even bring one inside the house. They're old fashioned and that's just too gross for them. Most I can do is worms, crickets. But no roaches.

    Lower temps will stunt their growth as well as malnurishment. For maximum growth speed the temp probably should be around 80. Humidity levels also effect growth rates. 2.5 at 5 months isn't unheard of. They do go through growth spurts. I believe that the Cranwelli could reach a max size of 8". Just because most only hit 5 or 5.5 some even 7 as females ofcourse. Males can reach larger sizes as well3" to 3.5" for males is the overall average. It doesn't mean that a monster isn't lurking in your stunted female just waiting for the right nutrients to cause an explosion.
