I have severtal african greys - one very tiny and petite (14.5 grams) - 2 medium sized - and 2 HUGE ones....both in sise and weight.....
From what i`m told (and seen) parrots from different parts of Africa can be different sizes (and shades of grey).
My tiniest grey had very tiny parrots.
I have a cockatoo who is bigger than all the greys and weighs nearly nothing. Not a picky eater, either. Though he spends more time flinging food out of his cage or commonly destroying it (i wonder sometimes if ANY is swallowed! :-)...to him, anything and everything is a toy. He`s very very actiuve as well.
Like poeple, they come in sizes and shapes and wieghts. I know. In truth i`m one of those who people subtly say (to me) `you must eat like a bird`.....In addition to that when i hear that do i ever LAUGH...(cackle sometimes, too!)..... In any event as long as the bird is healthy (check it out!) - don`t worry. My tiny grey is `insaulted` a lot by his size (as i am)....sometimes magically size *doesn`t* matter :-) Secondly leicarose www.tobynet.com
