I wondered similar things when ZoE turned out to be much bigger than I anticipated...much bigger than her breeder thought she'd be too.
Part of me does wonder if it's the better quality food we give them (including today's people food). My skin son turned out bigger than I expected too, he's almost a whole foot taller than me!
I do love how healthy and active ZoE is though and she has no problem keeping up on long walks. For my skin son, he comes in pretty handy too, as he can change lightbulbs in ceiling fixtures without me having to drag out a ladder
