So I bought this scale:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D3PWMSY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
(on amazon it's only 9.99 now or 2/3rds off it regular price,) so I could keep track of my new conure's weight.
Now this scale is not calibrated. but it's enough to track weight.
When I bought the new bird they said it was 62g.
I weighed today and he was 57.6g but I'm pretty sure thats just from using different scales and mine not being calibrated because he's a healthy eater.
Clark weighed in at 68g.
I'm including a picture so you can get a "sense of scale" if you were also looking for a scale.
They will be of course re-weighed monday at the vet so I can see how much my new scale is off maybe calibrate it.
according to a web search I should be looking at
Green-cheeked
Average Weight / Weight Ranges: 60 - 80 grams
Average Chick Weight: 5 grams
I'm interested if anyone else weighs their parrots.
