MIne just seesm to never stop eating, Always wants veggies.. ITs like he can just eat all day... Do they ever stop? Do they know when to stop?
 
They do actually snooooooze zzz but if they know you're around i'm sure they're wheeking more for food and attention rolleyes:))x)
I have seen my girls walk away from food i'm presuming they've filled their tummies and then once they've had a rest......back into it :)
 
so sometimes after him eating alot and he goes and lays down, hes full and just needs a small break? Lol

How do you know if you over feeding him.. People say 50g of veggies, But i dont have a scale to weigh, I dont know if I'm giving too much or even too little... does anyone have any pics of what they give daily?
 
I don't think the weight of veggies is so important as the kind of veggies. If you feed them more green leafy veg, and then only small amount of things like carrots and other root vegetables and fruit.

They will eventually stop eating! :)
 
ok good, I didnt know if i was feeding him to much,, He loves the leafy greens so I have been giveing him some when he looks at me and kinda like is sayin, hey can you feed me please? lol Hes kinda spoiled..
 
Earnie is so lazy that he's learnt to snooze whilst eating. He's worked out that if he just tilts his head whilst on the grass, he can still munch away no problem. I'll try to get a picture of him as it's absolutely hilarious.

If he's only 6 months he might still be growing so he'll need extra food:))

yeah hes just barely 6 months.. might even be 5. When i got him 3 weeks ago they said he was 4 or 5 months..

So i would presume teeth grinding for food would be common at this young age? I knwo teeth grinidng can be bad but i have had a lot of people tell me they do it to when they want food... I guess when he gets older he will be more calm and slow down a bit?
 
This is my youngest she's almost 4 months how does she compare in size to yours?

Yes that is close, Mins is the longer haired so it looks bigger then it is though.

Dindy tends to eat, poop, sleep, poop, eat, poop, sleep and not allways in that order.
 
I often wonder if they ever stop eating...my dad jokes that sexy (my oldest) eats till he could explode!
