Okay, so y'all remember when we got Fury back in Janurary from a breeder from Morphmarket and by February, he was showing signs of a uri. He would make a popping sound while blowing out a puff of air and then open his mouth for a few seconds. He was doing this literally every minute, all day, except for sleeping. The vet said possible uri and that he had some nasal drainage and while he was there, she had pushed on his nose to get some of the drainage out and he came home with a dark spot on said part of his face and the vet said maybe she did it a little too hard and it was bruising. Whatever I can live with that, despite how mad I was. But, then, a few weeks later, that black spot on his face fell away, exposing the tissue underneath and the vet saw he had something. A growth, excessive tissue he was born with, a cancerous(or benign tumor) in his nose, at the top. She thought that may have been why he was breathing like he was and started oral antibiotics. 

Well, then he stopped eating. In less than a week, he went from 35g to like 26g, we could see and feel his hip bones and he still moved around a bit but looking back and comparing, he was definitely lethargic cause of it. Since the antibiotic was every three days, we had to wait before switching him to ceftz injections. But once we did, he finally perked up. He started eating, gaining weight, even stopped the popping/open mouth. (But still has whatever that is in his nose, you can see it on the ridge) 

Anyway, I wondered, could whatever all that was stunted his growth.? At the time he was 4ish months old when it first started and he will be 7 months next saturday. He was about 11/12 inches then and is just a smidgen under 15 now and weighs about 130g. But he looks so...small.? I haven't had a baby in awhile, my oldest is over two and my youngest is 1 1/2 so I can't remember how much they're supposed to grow. Toothless was almost 3 when he passed and we got him at like 2 months but within a few months, he got huge, like by 6 months, he was 20 inches long. 

Is 15 inches (from nose to tail) and 130g okay.? Can their growth even be stunted like that.? I feed him small roaches everyday around the same time (we are in the process of cutting back and shifting to like every other day) and he acts like he's *starving*. I know they're opportunistic eaters and dumb as hell and will literally gorge everytime but he literally acts like he's never eaten a bug in his life. He'll most likely grow out of that right.? 

Sorry this was so long, here's some Fury photos for tax -- also, Fury surpasses pancake and goes straight into crepe. 



Possible stunted growth.?
