I also thought that the female was supposed to be bigger. I'm no expert either though. I thought, or assumed I guess I should say, that the female should be the bigger one to ensure that she would have room to carry the babies. You don't want a little mother and big father because then you risk having larger babies in a small female. I could be completely wrong though, I did assume that afterall....
