Loki is 9months now, but he is inly about 6" long at tge MOST while stretchef out.. Hes very very light, but eats like MAD!
He always gets fresh hay, pellets, veg etc.
But is this usual?
He just seems so small, About half the size too two thirds the size of harvey. (sorry for no pics, and really bad discription)

P.S Harvey is slightly smaller than the average sized American/English

I would start weighing him - that'll be helpful in bringing any problems to light. It is important to weigh young piggies weekly to see they gaining weight at a steady pace.

Kitchen scale are perfect - you can get a cheap pair from Argos!
