How large are your Orange Head Geos? I got some about an inch long 6 months ago or so, hardly grown at all. Did you find the same thing?

if you check the link in my thread I recorded their growth so far. but I have had mine for about a year and they aren't that big probably 3.5-4" defiantly slow growers.
