I think that may be a little more into play. Like I said, when they are full grown, I have never noticed a difference in size or production in dom. rats.
Perhaps. But they've been that size since two months, just as the bigger ones have been that size from two months.

They had they're eyes open (I'm pretty sure it was three weeks) so when the other babies were born, they weren't really suckling that much anymore if at all. I recorded seeing them eat one to two days after the second litter was born.
