Equations fitting changing of mass and mass specific rate of oxygen consumption during post-embryonal animal development are deduced from formulae of thermodynamics of linear irreversible processes. Requirements of applicability of the equations as well as requirements allowing to reduce the growth equation to Bertalanffi's equation and changing of mass specific rate of oxygen consumption with body mass to allometric dependence are described.
