>>It is virtually impossible to say really. It depends on too many unknown factors. Could be a very well-fed '09, or a not-as-well-fed '08. And it could be several months difference either way when it was actually hatched in either given year too.

Like Doug says...
Heck, I have had sibs that were pretty different in size...even when the same sex. I have a Childrens that is half the size of any sibs and his sister didn't put on a last growth spurt til I bred her....and she is 5 yrs old.
