My baby Eastern Hermanns eats a varied diet, drinks plenty of water, gets regular baths, is active, and poops well. I bought him in early December 2008, and he is STILL about 26g. Temps are right, food is right. Heating and UVB is right. He was at the vet a month ago, and tested negative for parasites. He was also on antibotics for 10 days.
I would think the volume of food he eats is ok, but have nothing to compare to. If it were not for the fact he does not gain weight, I would not be the least bit concerned.
Some say their baby torts are gaining 2g per week. Mine has not gained and maintained 2g's in 4 months.
In the next few weeks, he will be spending a lot more time outside, and I hope this helps. Should I be concerned? Is another vet visit in order?
