Right I have had my pinstripe since june she weighed in at 127g
She missed 4 feeds then weighed in at 118g
she then fed 30/06 and 05/07 then missed a feed
She shed and pop 15/07 and I forgot to weigh
18/08 she weighed 108g
Tonight she weighs 105g

I looked at the feeding record in the shop and she did not miss a feed for 3 weeks prior to me buying

She revieved mite treatment in the shop and again once when I got her home

now looking at the weight loss since I've had her its about 18% but if I take it from after the shed its next to nothing

Do I start to try things now or I i use what I know to be the empty weight 108g less 10% then start to try

I'm gunna answer my own question and wait
Is that right

i would have 108 as the starting weight (in terms of watching for drop) just because of the shed and poo emptying her out properly.

does her records indicate what pray she was on? could be just picky


either way not much to worry about i don't think, just a slow starter.

Get her onto Rat Pups asap. When i got my Mojave she was 50g, straight onto rat pups (she was an assist feeder for the 1st 4-5 feeds) she`ll soon get the idea.
