Are these growth rates ok ?

[lynn22]

I got the baby tigers at the end of july (sold as 2 - 3 months old) & both were more or less bang on 2cm shell length & now here we are at the end of August & both are 2.5 cms so is that below/bang on/above average growth for this species Are most 3 - 4 month old tigers around 2.5 cm shell ?

My albino retics I got on the 11th of August sold as 2 - 3 months old & shell length was 5cm, they are both now sitting on 6cm shell length, again is this a normal growth rate

Many thanks once again.

Tigers do have comparatively slow growth, much slower than most species, so I wouldn't worry about those too much as long as they're still growing. They keep growing for much of their lives, so they catch up eventually!

Retics on the other hand grow pretty fast. Yours sound like they're doing okay.

Thats good , ta.

I was just interested to know if they were "average" as average is perfect for me lol.
