Growth spurt?

kingofspades Jan 23, 2006 10:40 PM

Last Friday (13th) I weighed Eve on an empty stomach. She weighed in at 225 grams.
This past Saturday (21st) I weighed her after she ate two 20 gram mice, and she weight 350!
Now I am no expert, but minus the mice, she would be 310 grams.
That's an 85 gram increase...in a week?

That doesn't seem right to me. Did she hit a MAJOR growth spurt?
Has anyone else had this happen?

I would think there would have been an error somewhere. I have done it when weighing a bunch of animals and inadvertantly put the wrong weight down.
