Question

Question: Just wondering.


I got a new chinny recently and I was wondering if someone might be able to tell me about how big she may get. She is a little overweight because she stopped the chin in the cage with her from eating so she hogged it.
Cammy:
She was 56 grams when she was born

At exactly 3.5 months she ways 403 grams.

Also, The chin she starved (Toffey)weighed 51 grams when she was born and is two weeks younger.Could she eventually get just as big as cammy?

How long might it take Toffey to gain more weight back? she seems to be just junking out on supplement right now and doesn't seem to be growing as fast as cammy. We are a little worried about her. Se does not seem as hyper as Cammy.

First if she is eating mostly supplement I would stop giving it to her and give her feed and hay.


The one may never get as big as the other one is. The birth weight does not really determine how big the chin will get.

That's what we've done. How long do you think it will take to get her weight back up?

What color is she? What does she weigh? Is she by herself now? I think that she will be fine
