Hi,
I have two rescue Russians, Chili and Persephone. They are both adults, one male, one female, and of vastly different size.
Chili, the male
Persephone, the female
Persephone is nearly twice the weight of Chili.
Questions
1) Is that a function of Sexual Dimorphism or of Chili living the last 20 years in a 10g plastic tote, eating romaine lettuce?
2) Chili has put on a bit of weight since coming to live with me, nearly a year ago, but not much... should I expect him to catch up to Persephone in weight?
Thanks,
Jamie
