This is (supposed) girl Allos, and she was born in July! I'm wondering.... is she.... obese for her age? I'm not sure how you tell with blue tongues if they are overly stocky! Any input? And is my estimate on the gender mildly accurate base don body size?
Is she..... FAT?

The 2 of ours that we got as babies were real chunky the 1st 6 months or so, then thinned up a little, especially our male Thor. Looks very healthy to me.

Re: Is she..... FAT?
Thank you guys! I just want her to have good quality of life, and I realized I've been sneaking her a few extra munchies lately and she's been getting bigger!
