neonate size update

well took some time to get measurements of this years (7-1-03) neonates this morning. Lengths run from 17-19.5 inches and weights from 24-38 grams. The two lighter ones are both in shed and have missed 2 meals and will be late on a third. All have been eating hoppers for about 25 days on a 5-7 day feeding schedule. I hope they all make 40-50 grams before cooling about the end of next month. All of this years breeders are back in the 300-500 gram range and the new girls for next year's breedings are at or above the 250 range.
