SMALL irn's? Is it normal?

Post by SCB -SA »

Hi everyone, two of my indian ringnecks seem very small in comparison to my third, as well as any other I see in petshops?
They are just over a year old, and my 3rd (normal size) is only a few months older than them? I hand raised them from a few weeks old, is it my fault? is it something i did or that I am still doing?
They get a balanced diet, fruit, veg, seed, biscuit/pellets, as well as mineral blocks etc.
How can I help them grow into healthy birds or is it too late?

I've been called 'birdbrained' before, but somehow I don't think this is what they meant. say:hah-nay

Next time link please. ^^

Hard to tell in the picture since one is closer up so I have no opinion. Check their weights and if that is fine, wait until they mature and see what happens.

As posted recently here, http://www.indianringneck.com/forum/vie ... =3&t=11478 average adult weight is 115grams. I do not know weights up to then, and I would suppose that it depends upon the bird as they are all different.

Link by copying the URL and pasting it into your post. :)
