All of my bubs seem on track, they are doing very well.
However, two of them seem to have stopped, or slowed down, in growth.
The runt is now bigger than them :S
Thevet says I shouldn't worry, but I am mostly confused.
They are both happy, chubby, and jumpy, but MUCH smaller than the others, when they were younger they were the bigger ones.
I am not sure because they are just as strong, and they are twice as active as their brothers and sisters.
I give them extra time alone with mom, but the others seem to be passing those two greatly in size. They are both males, very dainty and small, with larger seeming ears than the others. Does anyone have an explanation for this?
