She looks quite young to me.. I would say 8-10 weeks old.
 
I would say 8-10 Weeks also! Are you managing to feed her ok?
 
I can't help you with age questions, but I wanted to say she's beautiful. :)
 
thanks guys for your help =) i really appreciate it. Shes currently on Passwells Hand Rearing formula atm, cutting down from 4 feeds a day to 3 now. i give her steamed puree carrots and sweet potatoe mixed with her formula. :red1:
 
AAAAHHHHHHH shes so cute! and if the breeder cant give you an actual hatch date, theyre probably not spot on, but i dont think they would be more than a couple of weeks out. :)
