Default Tiny "old" potatoes

I bought some of those delicious tiny potatoes. Put them in veg bin along with other potatoes -- small red. Went to nuke tinies today. SPROUTING! If they're babies, why are they prematurely geriatric. And if they're not babies, how is size controlled? Is it a function of species? 1 week seems rather soon to start sprouting. Dinner companion said it's because they are so long in transit.

Any experience out there?
