Is this growth to fast?

[Tizzay89]

Boxing is April 17th
And then the 14th of this month.

I knew they grew fast but.. yeah should I slow down on the power feeding of protein? Main diet is salmon,chicken guts, crickets ,meal worms and fruits no vegs. Vita dust 3 times a week cal daily.

Or just keep to this mix? I dont mind but I really don't wanna harm it. Not sure if the bones will keep up with the growth. Info on this would be nice atm I can only find vague info.

Calcium is always important in their diet, especially when young and when breeding if female. Keep protein high for first 2 yrs as well.

Not to power feed, but they must grow quickly. That is strongly selected for in this sp.

Cal power every meal. I want to invest in a uvb meter as well. I'm just not 100% on these uvbs I got. The graphs show the distance to put them but how do I know if they even putting out uvb.. best to avoid risks any idea on a quality brand for 1?

I was in total shock at how much Alpha ate as a juvi and am now glad that he has slowed down... £5 every day or 2 for 15 years seamed extreme just on food but its calmed down to a much more reasonable expense now
