Ok, that would explain why they looked so big. I have a female 4 mo old (tomorrow) SH from working lines and she is about 18/19 lbs. She was a couple pounds...
Gwen, believe me when I say those "giant type SHs" DO exist! ;-D And not just from BYBs either! I can still remember back in the days when I went to the shows...
