Smaller than I thought!

Nisa Mar 02, 2006 01:13 PM

Well my scales came in today, and I gotta say a grown female must be honking huge! My male is what I think of as standard size for the balls I see and he only weighs 1185g. I don't think he's under weight. I will admit I've probably never seen a grown female, but I think my boy is grown and the boys a friend has don't look that much bigger and there like 7 yrs old.
The 2 girls I have weigh 565g and 624g. My other two boys weigh 156g and 569g.

Are the girls that much bigger? Or is it mostly that you get them that much of a fat reserve?

Just little balls all the way around!

This girl is pretty big. Well over 3000 grams and more than 5 feet long. My wife in the picture is 5'9" for reference.
