Lisa,
Hoku feels nice and heavy, he feels like a heavy rock!
I have no idea why there's such a difference in weight between the two of them.Hoku is a tad smaller though, just measured him again and he's still 3 and a quarter inches.Funny because to me he seems both bigger and heavier, but he's not!

He hasn't lost weight since the attack, he's actually gained a couple of grams.
I don't know, all I can think of is that he is a tiny bit smaller than Vigil.
Do you measure Virgil to the tip of the gular scutes?

He eats well, is very active and so on and my vet isn't concerned over his weight or size.
No idea.
