Weight Question

[Leasdraco]

Out of curiosity,is obesity a common issue in reptiles? How do you tell if overweight?
Thanks in advance

It can be an issue because captive reptiles don't get the exercise or travelling that wild ones do. I only feed once, maybe twice a month.

I feed on same guidelines as you and let them out twice a week min for a good ole fashioned roam around backyard. They love it...well that's what they tell me....
