How much more will a 8 week old IRN grow?

I was just curious at how much more my birdie will grow. She is 124 grams and 8 weeks old. She seems big to me, so I was wondering if they tend to get much bigger from 2 months to 2 years.

Thanks!

Not much, really. Once a bird weans, they are about the size they will be for the rest of their lives. They may gain or lose weight, build muscle or get fat, but otherwise they are finished growing.

After weaning they're 'visually' as big as they'll get, but the scale will show some gain up to about a year (?) depending on the species/size.

Thanks! I was thinking in terms of an 8 week old kitten thinking "How big is this thing going to get???!" HA!
