I just purchased a Broken New Zealand she is nice plump and rounded and 3 months old weighs 4.5 lbs
I have raised a Californian /New Zealand from birth and a Siamese Satin from 4 weeks, both are now 2 and a half months and weigh the same as the New Zealand but are half the size and very muscular. All 3 are does.
All are very healthy, I feed a 17% pellet mixed with rolled oats and cracked corn free choice, they constantly have water both bottles and bowls in hot weather they get added electrolytes. I also feed a good grass hay and sometimes just grass and non dried purple clover.
Is it preferable to have them heavy and muscular or larger and "light for their size"?
