howdy, i've had my CWD for almost 2 months and we were told we only need to feed crickets, so we feed him crickets...a lot of crickets!....he has not grown...at all in legnth or girth since we've got him (i havent re measured, but he is about the same size) and i was just wondering what else i need to be feeding him....i always have a UVA and UVB light on him along with fresh water, and a good amount of D3 and calcium supplments....nose to tail tip i believe he is like 9.5"
finished a shed like 2 days before we got him and also shed about 3 weeks ago....do they just grow slow?

CWD are also a slower growing lizards not as slow a a frilled but slower than a Bearded. Crickets and small meal worms are the best. If you have any doubt about his health/growth get him checked out buy a herp vet.
