The tiny one must be the one covered up as the others look similar in size. Your momma is 7 pounds? She looks small. Just trying to get a visual concept as the pups are only 2 - 6 ounces.
Glad they are all well cared for. I did not mean to insinuate they weren't. I only recommended taking them to the vet because you had not mentioned doing that in the initial post, when
you asked when to be concerned. A one ounce pup is not the norm. I still feel like it is a concern to have a pup that small and daily weigh-ins at the same time of day are important. Another consideration is accurate weights. You did mention having some concern over using the postal scale as the pups kept wiggling. They should have been weighed at the vet's office when their dew claws were removed. How did those weights compare to the ones you had taken at home the same day?
