Re: Weight?
mine were 11-13 grams.
I have the smaller American zebras, not the larger European zebras.

Re: Weight?
Thank you for your answer. 
I hope more ppl will answer.
Im doing a little research.
I placed one of my zebra finch fledgling (22 days old) on a scale and it weighted 16 grams.
My goal is to raise large zebbies, maybe i am on the right way
