ah well yeah i do see where you're coming from regarding mine i've used a website for most of my knowledge as to what to do with him and it suggested that they won't 'stop' growing because of the size of their cage or environment but mine seems to have just stopped growing aside from the aforementioned tail what confuses me the most is i happened to get about eight juveniles from someone a while back they had hundreds or so anyway when i had been looking over them at first one was nearly black in color this is the only one of the eight that actually survived the rest managed to escape the cage and crawl into corners and die overnight or so he had i's say half a tail when we got him but it's been growing back and is near the original length i'd guess as it managed to somehow grow back parallel to his body but now it's at a near degree angle to the rest of his tail but the tip's rounded i guess i have three questions then since you see to be quite knowledgeable on the subject why did he stop growing why was he black then turn green again later on and what can i do to fix his tail may
