Or...perhaps lalafells reach full height by age 10 or so? Only thing I can think on it.
Clearly, they come out that size.
There's another popato "child" in Gridania near the Conjurer's guild. The parents are an Elezen father and Hyre mother.... I laughed a bit when I saw them.
Lalafel reproduce through mitosis obviously.

We already have Lala children hanging around Limsa for some reason.
To be fair, if a child lalafel were 1/3 to 1/2 the height of an adult Lala, the children of Lalafell would be quite miniscule, smaller than most minions, and I don't think that's such a great thing. I suspect that it is as Alpha Fox suggests, Lalafel reach their full height very early in life.
I thought they lay an egg then it grows until a full grown lalafel pops out. Either that or they come out of cabbages.
Maybe to distinguish full grown female Lalafell to girl is make grown female Lalafells with actual boobs. At least they will look less like kids that way. Males just add facial hair.
Lalafell child npcs are rare, but they have been in the game since 1.0. They have always looked like slightly more baby-faced lalafells.
