I have started my first hatch which includes seven serama eggs. In researching this breed of chicken I learned there are different weight classes. For those who have raised several, can you determine what size a young one will mature at based on early weights? Is the 16-18 week weight the mature weight?
 
Yes there are different weight classes. Can you tell what class at a young age? Generally no. It takes a serama 10-18 months before they have completely filled in, so at minimum I would say 6 months is when you can get a good idea on their class size.
CLASS SIZES
Sizes – Cocks,
Micro – upto 13 ounces
Class A – under 13 ounces
Class B – under 16 ounces
Class C – under 19 ounces


Hens
Micro – upto 8 ounces
Class A – under 12 ounces
Class B – under 15 ounces
Class C – under 19 ounces

Anything weighing more then these is considered a class D bird and are generally considered culls
