I've been tracking the weights and feedings of my two stripes from the same clutch and it's interesting to see how they differ being fed the same amount.
I've had them both about 6 weeks and they both started out at the same size of 8g when I bought them. Both are very aggressive feeders on f/t and have not skipped a meal, even when in shed.
Interestingly enough, after 6 weeks with the exact same feeding amounts and on the same days(the Munson plan), one is at 16g and the other is already at 20g. That's a 25% increase over his sibling! I think I may start feeding the big guy on a bit more conservative plan than his brother.
Either way, I always find it interesting that with the exact same circumstances, you can get such large differences.
