Oh, not a hint really, as such. I can see why you're all picking 2-Toes, really I can. After all, she was the biggest of the girls at birth - by a long way. And, yes, it's true that puppies will normally gain about 10% of their weight each day and that at the end of the first week they will have approximately doubled their body weight. Approximately.
And it makes sense, too, to pick 2-Tone because boys are usually bigger than girls and will often gain more weight more quickly if they are small to begin with.
It just goes to show that these things are not set in stone and so many factors will affect the growth rate. For example, you haven't even had the poo story yet (for which, perhaps you're grateful?) Does it help if I tell you that at their daily weigh-in this morning, but for 1 gram, 2-Toes was the same weight as Butterfly? No, that's not much help, I guess. See, isn't this fun?
One more day to vote! In the meantime, this is what was going on at breakfast this morning. Halfway through you can hear Lenny the cat yowling outside the door for his food too. And you also get a glimpse of how a puppy can come unstuck, get lost and need a little help finding their way back to the milk bar.
A note on the sound: all the grunts, squeaks, squawks, yelps, squeals & screeches are made by the puppies. The creaking sound that is similar to wood pigeons cooing or a woodpecker in the forest is something the video recorder does, for some reason.
And the books in the corners of the box? That's a story for another day.

Now I didn't see any for sale at Crufts so maybe there's a gap in the market for a puppy compass ?
LOL you might be onto something there.
