I am not sure about Yorkies but from what I have learned on here they shoudn't have left until 12 weeks. I got little Bella when she was 8 and half weeks old and that was way to young and she got really sick right after. I grew up on a boarding kennel and my dad breeds english setters and they never leave their moms before 7 or 8 weeks so that is def. not right!!! somehow that should be reported hope the little ones ok. 2 lbs sounds good though and must be doing pretty well!
