Yep! Isn't that strange? I find the tinier ones sometimes need more or just as much as 18lb Jackson to maintain. Jackson's never ever been "Fat", I keep him pretty lean in general, but I can always tell when he's like a pound or 1/2 pound heavier than I like. He seems to gain weight easier nowadays than he used to (ahh the joys of getting older right?)
This was just a few months ago and how I like him- he's not quite as muscular as he used to be but that's because we've gotten lazier this last year. Need to get him more conditioned again ha!
But yeah if I fed him more than I do now he'd be a lard.
