In my experience, males don't grow too fast and for females, it depends. My female basically exploded for the first few years of her life, and now it's pretty slow, but I think she still gains some. The little one only grew about 1 pound heavier over the past 3 or 4 years, so she still looks like a baby. (She eats all day and I'm still waiting for her to hit the 1 1/2 pound mark.) If you want a big healthy one just get one that eats well as a hatching (like my big one) and you'll be fine as long as you feed it right.
