Picked up a new baby, and she's "tiny". Possibly problems?
That's awesome! No bones :)

You almost wouldn't believe they were the same baby at all.
Years ago, my husband and I rescued a little normal boy. His owners fed him one pinky mouse a month. He was 7 months old and just as skinny as your babies were when you got them. The first time I attempted to feed him a fuzzy mouse, he panicked because he'd never seen prey that big. But once he got started, he never looked back. By the time we'd had him for 6 months, he'd gained 600 grams and looked great.
I am so happy for you, and more important, I am happy for your baby that you were willing to work with the baby and get her back into condition.

Another update.
Ruby is still growing and sassy. She's up to a small adult mouse every 5 days, and taking it like a champ. Had some issues shedding, I really don't think she'd ever shed before, she didn't know what to do. She's still got a bit stuck under her mouth, but I'm hoping that'll come off with her next shed. She's realllly loving the moss I put in there for her. :D

One last update.
Ruby is over any rough start she had, she's a fat little cow, and is eating/shedding without a problem. The change is.. Amazing.
