Stella must feel like a lead weight. My male is 9 3/4" weighs 6#, but I think he's too light. My female is 11" and weighs 9# so I think we have similar weights, I do love to see pictures of leopards.(hint)

I have an 8.5 Inch Female Leopard that weighs 1.6kg Which is about 3.5lbs

Assuming they have been measured straight Plastron lengh, converted,
Stella 8.9cm 453.6 gms is a little heavy girl to me, but could be.
Rocky 23cm 2kilo 333 gms, sound's ok

Petal 25.4cm 3k 200 gms 4-6 year old guess
Spot's 30.5cm nearly 7 kilo, 6-8 year old guess
These two not sure of, they do come in sometimes all different when older. Thinking they are not all 4 year old's. What do some other Leo keeper's think.

We measure SCL in the states. Is it different in the UK?

Rocky's, Petal's and Spot's weights are good. Stella's weight though is more for a Leopard in the 12 to 14cm size. Have you measured her correctly? If you have, I might worry about fluid retention or a stone if she weights that much at almost 9cm.
