PROC GLIMMIX

Thank you! Will the GLIMMIX with identity link works?????

[Ksharp]

You could check option " DIST=possion | gamma"  .

Or calling experts @StatDave  @lvm  @SteveDenham

I think a gamma distribution with a log link or a lognormal distribution with an identity link are probably best here, as the values seem well bounded away from zero.

The ID for the last observation looks wrong. I think you intended ID=6.
