Whoa i never realized they were that big
Yeah I thought they were the size of a chicken.
I thought they are the size of a kiwi!
lol same hence the name
They are the size of a large chicken from what I can find.
Different chicken breeds have WILDLY dissimilar sizes. Like 2lbs to 12lbs and some chicken breeds can get to 3ft tall.
Here is a site I found that seems to exclusively talk about chickens with a list of different large chicken breeds.

Nyooooom
I don’t know why, but this comment absolutely portrays the single most apt description of that second picture haha.
And now I’m reminded that I will forever be teased by the New Zealand side of my family… 😅
I found a photo showing how large Kiwi can get, before we went to see them at the Te Puia Geothermal Park, and I was SHOCKED.
“Shel, how big did you think they were?”
I put my hands up🫸🫷to the size of a robin
“I don’t know… bird sized”
“Bird sized? … you’re gonna lose your shit when you see a ostrich”
😐😑😐🙄😮💨
I want to hold a kiwi…
Why is the word bird required? A kiwi is a kiwi, it’s literally the name of the animal. You don’t say pigeon bird?

Lyrebird.
Also, there are non bird kiwis
Hey, I saw a Black out on my lawn, eating worms. I banged on the window and scared him off though.
Americans want kiwis as pets. Trump would like the eggs. Give us kiwis please!
