im running into the exact same issue..my babies were 2 weeks on tuesday so almost 3 weeks..they were born 2 & 3oz, smaller then most yorkies is what i was being told. Now when i weigh them at 2 weeks one was a 1lb, 2 at 14oz and 1 at 12 something and the other was 11.02oz...

the birth weight on the puppy chart put them at 5-6lbs full grown now some are arond 7-8lbs ranges, the rest are 5-6lbs range. But maybe they will surprise us.

This is also my first yorkie litter..daddy was bigger 8.5-9lbs and mom is 6-6.5lbs. i know the grandparents on both sides were smaller, so when they were born that small i figured it was the grandparents but now i see it probably the daddy's genes kicking in. So im on the look out for a smaller male now..i gave the daddy to a friend so that i could get a male with better breeding qualitys. i will probably purchase a male end of next month but i dont want a puppy i want 6mo-1 years of age


good luck post pics!!
