    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Well, it's nothing nearly exciting as a new leo, or more eggs, but I just got a new-fangled scale that read to the 1/10 of a gram! Woohoo! It's 1g off (I have a calibration weight), but I haven't found out how to fix it yet. Here's Ozzy making a lovely model. I've been trying to get him to loose weight FOREVER (he's a bit big in my opinion), and in close to a year he's lost 4g! ROFL :rofl: Talk about big boned. At least the stomach rolls have mostly gone away.

Great scale, I understand why you are happy, those scales make life soooo much easier! I was excited when I got mine too.

P.S. Ozzy looks great IMHO. He doesn't look like he needs to lose weight, he's muscular nor fat :eatpointe
 
Here's a pic of when a few months after I got him...can you see the belly rolls? LOL

This was the first day I got him - lucky for me, my fingers grow back like leo tails! WOoo - special powers. (I was actually VERY nervous doing this, as I had heard stories of how mean he was.) You can see, 4g didn't really make much of a dent in his figure.

Here's the same day...you can make out rolls near his thighs. He is a BIG leo, no doubt, but he was overweight. I think he's looking better now, maybe a few more grams - lol - that'll take another year.

Ozzy is cute and chubby; that last pic almost looks like he has no neck! What a sausage! lol
 
If Jaws was considered a porker amongst Sharks, or Great Whites in particular, then Ozzy certainly qualifies for a (Non-Giant) Porker Status Leo. He is Huge. 95 grams is quite large for a Non-Giant. My first Leo was a big gal who hit and stayed at 85 grams from about 18 months - 4 years old. I sold her recently, but she was still over 80 grams and bred right away for the person who bought her. I also had a male Rainwater Albino named Ozzy, but he topped out at 80 grams. He bit me once and I have to admit that it didn't tickle and he drew some good blood. :)
 
I have 2 Non-Giant Males in the 95 Grams area, My original male High Yellow, and my Male Mack Snow. It is weird, becuase they both have HUGE Heads

Jeanne,
Those are huge also. They don't have belly rolls, but their heads sufficiently make up for the lack of the spare tire... :)
