Hi Beth, Try looking for the Macintyre Ratio for Horsfields. I have 3 Horsfields here but I'm nowhere near being an expert but I have to ask, are you sure your Horsfield is only 3 years as I would say that it sounds a bit big for it's age. My first Horsfield was aged at around 6-7 years+ when I got him last year and he was less then 12cm. As I've said though, I'm certainly no expert and I'm sure someone more in the know will come on to help you. | |
