My RTB is about 2 months old and I'm getting concerned about the extra loose skin around her neck. This is my first baby rtb and I'm not sure if this is normal for a baby and she will grow into it or if I'm not feeding her properly....

It'll grow into it as far as I know.
I've seen the smaller ones use this as a defense type tactic where they fill it with air like a balloon in order to appear larger.

She will be shedding in about a week but this is something that I've been noticing for a while.
