How much does a chicken quarter weigh?

On average, a chicken quarter, also known as a leg-and-thigh portion, weighs around 10 to 12 ounces (280 to 340 grams). However, the weight of chicken quarters can vary depending on the breed of the chicken, the age of the bird, and the specific cuts of meat included in the quarter. Some chicken quarters may be larger or smaller than the average weight range.

If you are purchasing chicken quarters from a grocery store or butcher, the weight of each quarter will likely be listed on the packaging or item label. You can also ask the butcher for the approximate weight of the quarters before making a purchase.
