Thanks everyone! I just weighed and measured her yesterday. She's 92g and just shy of 2.5 feet. Not sure if that's normal for a yearling, or a little on the small side, but she seems completely healthy and growing steadily.

That's a nice size for a yearling, almost exactly the same size as my two and I was under the impression that they were bigger than average.

Lots of Cinders do have a little different body shape. My Hypo Cinder looks a little too skinny on the top/spine part of her body but the bottom half looks a bit on the chunky side. I know of a number of Cinders that are just as big as other morph age mates but I have heard of a number of smaller than average, perfectly healthy Cinders. So it's possible that more Cinder morphs are on the smaller end of the size scale than other morphs.
She doesn't look worryingly small/skinny to me.

If I remember right, which is not a given with my memory, Cinder came out of Upper Keys corns, which tend to be smaller and have at different times been considered a separate subspecies of corn. Though I think presently they are considered full corns right now, not a sub.

Many cinders are known to have slightly triangular body shape vs. the loaf shape of most healthy corns. I agree, her keys ancestry might also be affecting her size and growth rate.

Thanks. She is definitely more muscular than the others who lay around all day. I have started feeding her a little more frequently again, back to every 5 or 6 days instead of once a week, as long as she's out looking for food. If she still doesn't grow with the increased feeds then I guess she's going to be on the small side too!

I hadn't heard this before, that's really interesting! Thanks for the info, Tavia. I'll see if I can find more info on it.
