Around an inch and a half would be right. Is the new one you are getting a baby?

yeh im so excited
i have got bobs old indoor cage thingy, i know it's a bit rubbish but the clamp lamp fits nice on it and it's big enough for a hatchling.

after the 6 month quarenteen and hopefully there fine to introduce to each other, can the hatchling live with bob, or will bob squash it?

How big is Bob now? He may just regard a tiny hatchling as a pebble to be walked over! it may be a little while before they can go together, the best person to answer this one would be Terry, he has Leopards of all ages.
I have some 6 month old hatchlings and I would never put them with our other guys, they walk over each other as it is, and the little ones would get too stressed. The bigger ones will soon start growing much faster as well.
Can't wait to see some pictures!
