Buckeye LF chicks - when will they weigh at least 2 lbs?

[ChicoryBlue]

I will set up a treadle feeder and train them (Rat Proof Feeder http://ratproofchickenfeeder.com/Medium-Ratproof-Chicken-Feeder_p_1.html) and the seller recommended they weigh at least 2 lbs for safe use. What is the weight trajectory for this breed? I don't have an accurate scale in my house. I have a small hanging feeder (https://www.premier1supplies.com/p/...3+Feeder,+3+lb+capacity&species_id=0&cat_id=0) I'm using while I tractor around my 4 four-week-old chicks now, but plan to use the Rat Proof Feeder in the Winter when everything will be stationary and attached to a 6x9 composting litter run. Thanks!

Thanks for the link, I will try there. I was also thinking maybe there is an Ag manual somewhere that would show it in a tale for the breed, I don't know. They are slow-growing, I think.
