    is my bp normal/ healthy size??

    Hello
    This is my first bp named zeeke and Iam probably more stressed than I could've expected to be over him. I wNt only to do all the right thing for him so my question is I got him on sat. And weighed him quicly today he is 208 grams and about 8 months old or so does this sound right?
    Thanks ahead of time

    8 months old and only 200 grams is rather small. Mine that are about that age are in the 4-700 gram range. But it also depends on the animal. Can you post picks so we could get a better idea of how he actually looks?

    I agree, that seems pretty small, a picture would definatly help.

    They all grow at different rates, but I would say its on the small side.

    Re: is my bp normal/ healthy size??

    Really that's what I thought too what really made me think to weigh em was when u feel him from the middle to lower half of his body his skin almost felt kinda loose or savvy idk how else to describe it now I'm worried the man at the show claimed he's ate like pig ill get a pic up asap.. bit only have a phone cam

    Also meant to say saggy not savvy

    A phone cam pic will be fine.

    Did the man at the show say what he was eating? Rats or mice?
