I got this off a website:
LENGTH
Adult: Head-body length is about 200-300 mm (up to 12 inches). Males tend to be slightly longer than females.
Newborns: Newborns are about 6 - 10 cm long.
HEIGHT
Adults and sub-adults: Height when walking approximately 13.2 cm, and when crouching approximately 11.9 cm. (about 5 inches)
Juveniles: Height when walking approximately 10.4 cm.
WEIGHT
Adult: Adult weights can range from a low just after hibernation of only 600-700 g up to 1.1 or 1.2 kg prior to hibernation. They may rarely reach as high as 1.6 kg and in captivity grossly overweight individuals may even pass 2 kg. Males are generally slightly heavier than females.
Newborns: The weight of hoglets at birth is variable and may range from 8-25 g. Hoglets at the top end of this range may be considered abnormally large and may lead to difficulties with parturition.
