You can actually get scales pretty cheap on ebay. I got a digital scale that goes up to 6 pounds for weighing pups. The one I got came with a little bowl I could place the pups in for safety and I think I gave like $22 shipping and all. IT weights in 10th of oz's Marsha

(Chi size) When I got Penny at 5 mts old, 4 lbs, the breeder said she wouldn't grow much more, but we shall see. My daughter was over yesterday and she says she has grown since I got her, but I don't see it. I think I have had her 1 month now. I need some baby scales....lol Stefanie Brannan wrote: My girl, Cricket got weighed at the vet yesterday. She only weighs 3.4 pounds and she is 6 months old now. I hope she gets a little bigger because I was planning on breeding her when she is old enough. I was hoping she would get up to about 5 pounds but she is still tiny. Anyone know if she is still young enough to continue to grow?

Not that I can get another chi, since I have 3 already, but do u have their pics in the photo section? What is the Mom and Dad's names? I just like to look :-) marsha wrote: well, I am expecting pups this weekend who should be in that size range! lol. OF course, it would be awhile before they are ready to go. Momma is 3 pounds, daddy is 2 and a half. This will be a first litter for momma and while daddy has a couple other litters, they are all still babies, so can't guarantee how they will be as adults, but expecting small. :-) I can't wait!! IT will be my first l/c litter!
