Do lizards have growth stunting, if so can it be reversed?
If yes, do all lizards stunt
How could you stunt a lizard

What are a few ideas for decoration for WDs or Leo tanks

could leo innactivity be a sign of low temps

I've heard natural yogurt is good for WDs, what is natural yogurt, how much, and were do you buy it (specialty stores)
Could natural yogurts benifit Leopard Geckos?

What are some good tricks for increasing appetite and fattening lizards safely

when do Leopard Geckos WDs and BDs all reach full size
what are healthy sizes for these all as adults

Just a few curious questions
THANKS

Yes, stunting can occur in most herps. Anything from stress to improper care can stun the growth of an animal. -Not the size of the enclosure.- Normally stunting is not reversible but your animal will continue to grow if it is set into a proper care situation.

Live plants are great decors. Just check out everyone's photos on here. A lot of people have great looking set ups for Water Dragons and Leopard Geckos.

Low temps is a possibility. Could be sick or stressed, too. Low temps is a good possibility though.

Natural yogurt has lactose ingredients in it.-From what I hear. So no, bad choice. Some baby foods are good ideas. (Fruit/vegetables)

Keep the temperatures proper and make sure the animal is stress free. With this you will have a happy animal. Feed proper foods...

Growth will vary. Keep them healthy and in a few years you will have great looking animals.
