Just for a little amusement, nothing serious by asking but what is the weight of your boys?

I know I am naughty for not weighing them already but I finally plucked up the courage to weight the boys and found them to be a stonking 1.3kg (126?g but he jumped off the scales before I got a proper reading) and an even heftyer 1.5kg (1486g luipn was more obliging). I knew they were big, but blimey that was a shock :)) still, more to cuddle drool

So curious to know what the average sort of weight for the lovely lads in our homes (not a weekly weigh in, just what they are roughly and what breed/type)

coronet 1.3kg
coronet 1.5kg

(I have rounded them up and will find out what silver and the girls weigh, will do a seperate girls thread too for fun)
 
Angus (rex) 1yr old - 1090g
Hamish (Rex ?SwissX) 1 year old - 1060g
Suilven (Ridgeback/crested X) 18 moths old - 1273g
Arran (Lunkyara) 8 months old - 1200g
 
Big Dave - short haired crested thing - 1.16kg yesterday! (Previously 1.8kg :o)
Jeffrey - aby x type thing - 1.3kg but on the lardy-bum side at the moment!
 
George is my biggest at 1.4kg he is very long!
His brother Gerry is around 1.3kg
Spike and Bob often weigh exactly the same strangely enough usually about 1.15kg (Aby X and Coronet.)

I think he may be 3lbs? 3lbs = just under 1.4kg

i dont know ? The vet defo said 3kg to me.. I have no idea regarding the scale of weight unless its in lbs so i never realised 3kg was classed as large until the vet said he was a big lad... Hes 3-4 now and is alot bigger than my friends netherland dwarf bunny.. Alot of family/friends and staff at vets have commented on how large my piggy is.. Maybe the vet made an error but hw definatly said kg...
 
Well, silver is a predictably slender but equally respectable 889g so 900g rounding him up, he is a very small pig and very light especially compaired to the girls but he was heavier than I expected.

So silver, abby 900g

All my pigs are about a year or so old.
