As long as he is still eating, drinking and pooping properly i dont think theres too much to worry about
Maybe he's just a slow grower?

It may just be the shop has not kept the records up to date, wouldnt be unheard of.

Hi, I have a little one ?9 months approx. She had feeding difficulties before she came to me; then they got her started again and she fed okay with me from May to July - then became chancy again, nothing to worry about, and now she's picking up nicely and beginning to feed well again (fingers crossed!) She's a Miami - they say they can be difficult to start as young ones. (Last time she fed she nuzzled round for another pinky - she's getting two next time.)

Looking back in her shedding records she last shed 17 June. If they don't grow they don't shed. Your Vinnie's had a long period of not eating - bet you anything he goes into shed soon now he's started eating again. As, I hope, will my Cy.

Good luck to us both!

Edit - oops, sorry, I thought you said in a previous post that he'd had a few weeks not eating but had started to eat well again? Sorry if I've got this wrong.
