Thanks guys. Hoping to breed them next year, not for busi ess for to experience that part of the hobby and raise an animal i produced.

Maybe trade them for other colors in the future.

Vicious, my females are gaining a couple grams a week, is that a good rate?

These guys are really easy to breed so this is a great species to try out. But it's a good idea to keep the male separate from the females until they're at the correct age and weight to breed. Cresteds in captivity can breed at a much earlier age than they should and they WILL breed, trust me. It's best to wait until they're about 16-18 months old before attempting it.

Yes, I'd say that's a good growth weight depending how old they are.
 
I got my female yellow tigers from a pet store, they said they got them in at a baby size, and estimated around 6 months. They are 19 and 23 grams when I weighed them on Monday.


I keep the females together, this is my first male and he is alone.

Your girls are going through their rapid growth stage. They usually slow down at about 25-30 grams. Glad to hear you're keeping the male separate.
 
Youre not kidding! Weighed again and the smaller one is now 23g and the larger one is 26 g!

I changed their diet to CGD version 3 and they like it more.

Even the baby gecko i got from petsmart has a chubby belly now lol
