I tend to think this is how Chloe is going to mature. She is very fine-boned like your little guy. Like I mentioned before, she was 2lbs at 8 weeks and at 6 months now, she is 4lbs 10 oz. I want her to be 5 1/2-6lbs. She was the largest one in the litter, and I purposely chose that because I knew she was more likely to be closer to the standard. I was so afraid of the health problems that sometimes come with the tinier ones. I know they grow at different rates, but her size now, and fine features...(and she's as tall as she is long) I just don't see her getting over 5 1/2 lbs, but I hope she grows that big.
