All my guinea pig's weights are under 700g, but they seem so big and bulky :D

Luna, 1 year old : 680g
princess, 8 months old, 560g
Bing, one year old: 600g
Apito, 4 months old : 300g
 
Are you sure about their age? While piggies can vary in their weights 600-700g seems on the small side. My smallest sow is 960g at just over a year old and my heaviest is my 2 year old sow at just under 1200g.

If they had unlimited hay, good quality pellets and a variety of vegetables then they should be fine. Are they eating OK? Pooping OK?
 
I am sure of the ages, they get one bowl of supa guine a day, unlimeted hay and their daily veggies. They are pooing fine and eating fine.
