Donating YT 10K Club Member | They tend to fill out more in the later months. All of mine had growth spurts between at around 6-8 months. I wouldn't say she has LOTS more growing to do...but maybe some.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | It depends on the lines. My breeder said her lines grow fast and most of their growth is reached by 6 months. Roxie hasn't really gotten any bigger in several months and she is now 10 1/2 months old. So your baby may get a bit bigger.

| More often than not, they will not finish growing until around a year of age. |

| Like another poster said: they tend to 'fill out' some but nothing substantial - not like 2-4 pds hehe More like when a young lady comes of age and 'fills out'. Not really bigger - just more mature and suitable for adult life (carrying babies for example). I noticed it in my girls bum - her bum got wider haha. And was already wide because her poor legs are SO SHORT! I pick on her bum all the time - I tell her shes got too much junk in that trunk! |

| They are all different. Mia is reaching 9 months of age and she pretty much stopped her major growing at about 7 months. She's only gained a few ounces since then.

| My Abby sounds like Sky Fox's baby and Daisy sounds like Cura's baby. Daisy is model material Long legs and thin. Abby is a short little thing and very round. I think they're both beeeeeeeeUtiful! BTW Abby will be 7 months the 25th of this month and weighs around 4-4.5 lbs., but she's so tiny!
