    There is no set weight average.
    They're all born at different sizes and have different growth rates.

    But ball park figure I would say between 50-150grams.

    At that age, it really can still vary a lot based on what his hatch weight was. I have some two-week olds that range from 54g-82g (before first meal), which is a pretty big difference. Yours looks like he has good body condition, so I'd say he weighs what he should, whatever that is. :)

    It's variable, lots come in to play

    Weight out of the eggs, I have hatch some in the 40+ grams and some in the 80+ grams.

    How fast they start eating, some will start the day of their first shed some might take 4 or 6 weeks before getting started.

    So imagine a 40 grams hatchling that take 6 weeks to take his first meal and compare it to a 80 grams hatchling that eats right away, the difference can be pretty significant.

    What matters is that your animal is eating and that he LOOKS healthy. :gj:
