Clyde is about 18 inches long n approx 15g and about 5 mnths and having 1 pinky a week however he is being very active after his feed on tuesday n every day since - could he be hungry ? He did have a bit of a bump in his tum after his feed. i am a bit worried about him being skinny

Try feeding two pinky at once if you like and see how he goes. I think mine were on fuzzier by 6 months old but can't really remember!

my little girl is 9 months and weighs 23g, i've just moved her from 2 pinkies to 1 fuzzie, wasn't sure if she'd manage it but she did, and look as if she was thoroughly enjoying it

i would suggest trying 2 pinkies before a fuzzy, make sure their stomach can handle the extra food
