Peanut and Pecan, sisters, are 6 months. They seem small when I think back to our other rats at this age.

What age do females typically reach their full body length?
 
That seems to be about when they are full size (though they often do fill out a bit more horizontally LOL). Some rats are just very small.

I have seen that growth with my food lover, Mishka!

They are small, but healthy and happy. Just hoping that small size doesn't relate to any potential health problems.
 
I have a boy finley is half the size of my other rats and not much bigger than my girls. Some of my girls are little and some are wider :) it just depends on the rats.

Good.

That's what I was hoping.

(There is just such a size difference between Mishka, who is of the "fat rat" variety :lol: , and the younger two. )
