: 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.

I think this last time I measured him from pointy thing to pointy thing. Isn't that professional terminology. In the past I may have just done the midline.
