Runt maybe? I had one exactly like him, took longer to develop then the others. Thought at first peanut, then maybe a fader, and then finally settled on Runt. He is now close to six months old and doing well, still small though compared to his siblings.
Thanks for the thoughts - I am thinking runt, too, glad to hear he's probably just developing slower. Thanks for the input! =)
Looks like a runt to me too. They do develop slowly compared to normal ones and from my experience with them, they don't seem to develop good flesh condition as adults. They make cute pets though. :-)
Thanks Linsey - that's interesting about not developing as good conditon. Hm. Well, he seems to have a big full tummy after feeding, which is good. I wasn't sure if he'd be able to compete with the other babies but he seems to be holding his own! I have done a force feeding two or three times with Chip, to help him out, but I don't want to take anything away from the big healthy ones, so I'm trying not to do that too much. He sure is a cute little guy, though! ;-)
My grandpa always told me that runts are auspicious.. and it's always been true for me.
