bunnieshaven, I think your conti doe looks normal to me ^-^, beautiful and fluffy!
do you know how much they both weigh? I think someone on here with more exp, and people who helped me would be more adequate to answer this question!


heres some more updates of her, she hads grown ALOT since those last photos -

shes not put on a major amount of weight, only up at 13lbs (at 7 and a half months), still eats like a pig, but, size wise, she is BIG. even using two hands, its difficult to carry her! still, her full dark steel coat hasnt come through, just waiting for that to come! she's going to be spayed this time next month too!

Oh my gosh J hasn't she come on beautiful! 13lbs dosen't seem a bad weight for seven months to me. Some one has said Contis can grow up to the age of 18 months! , and , if that isright? (can any oneany confirm that please),then they go on and fill outalso , so you never know kid she may end up carrying you lol, seeing as you say shes already grown to where you find it diffucultto carry her

Hi, Several weeks ago I put a deposit down to reserve a female giant continental probably when they were just a few weeks old. However, I was told a few weeks ago that several of the kits became ill and a few died. In total 6 of 12 died. The breeder days that the girl I reserved is doing well and putting on weight each day. She is 8 and a half weeks old and weighs 1.3kg, which is about 2.8lbs. I am told that she is behind due to the illness, but the vet says it is ok. Should I be concerned at this weight? Would you advise me to go ahead or pull out if you were in the same situation?
Thanks in advance for your help.
