Hello,

Took my piggies for their first health check today and they got their nails clipped, they got a clean bill of health and were so so well behaved, not a peep from either of them, I'm like a proud parent!

The only thing is that trixie is 20g heavier than Luna, is this an issue? Should I take Luna out and feed her extra? What do you think? Xx

There is no need to worry; I have had litter sisters that have been over 100g (to 500g at their peak) difference in weight, and yet they have both lived to a ripe old age of nearly 6 and over 8 years old.
As long as your girls are eating well, are lively and are not losing any weight when you weigh them once weekly, you are perfectly fine.
