Question
Can you tell me the average weight of an adult canary?

Answer
HI Betty,

An average canary weighs anywhere from 12 to 29 grams. This weigh difference is caused by the size of the adult bird (canaries can range in length from 4 to 6 inches).

And here are some articles about overweight birds:

I hope this helps.
