i think it sounds like his growth rate is fine ... he's grown 7 inches in 6-7 months so that's about an inch a month! that's more or less average for igs ... as long as you're sure he's parasite-free, i wouldn't worry ... offer him food 2-3 times a day ... sounds like he's doing good! make sure he's got lots of room to climb in his environment and he'll get big + fat in no time! you might want to change his food just a little ... igs don't like the same thing day after day after day ... that might improve his appetite a bit ...

it took iZ a long time to get used to being in the bath tub too! try putting just a very little bit of water in ... not so deep that your ig can't touch the bottom and see if that helps ... it's VERY good for when they're shedding!

he's growing, it just doesn't FEEL like it's much right now, but it really is fine ...

(glad his side is doin' ok!!!)
