Just wondering how much does your IRN weigh in at?

I'm curious what others will say because the usual place I check for typical bird weights (source) lists Ringnecks with a mean of 123g and a +/-10% range of 111 to 135 (i.e. not even close).

Alexandrines, however, are listed with a mean of 215g and a +/-10% range of 193 to 237g.

That weight is WAY over IRN weight. Both my IRNs are in the 120s and 130s.
Is that your IRN in your avatar pic? If so, that looks like an Alexandrine Parrot which is bigger than an IRN.
