I was looking up the average weights for an Orange wing and it said 340 grams which is under a pound.Another site said 350-600 grams, which seems a bit more reasonable to me(but what do I know).
I swear Paco must be 2lbs easy.I need to build a little perch and weigh him...He is really heavy and rather pear shaped.I havent had the nerve to feel around on him yet..He flys okay, he can make it across our kitchen into the den but never really attains any height and I doubt he could fly much farther.
I ordered the Zupreem in the nasty colors(he is used to some kind of round colored pellet) and I ordered some Harrisons high potency as well.Ive never tried the Harrisons.I use Zupreem natural.I figure I just need him eating something reasonably healthy.He picks around at his veggies but does eat them well.
