I used to work in animal nutrition and we would calculate “Feed Conversion Ratio” (FCR) = [Animal Feed Eaten] / [Weight Gained]. A lower ratio closer to 1 was the most ideal; the most efficient animal is a factory farmed broiler chicken at an FCR of ~1.5ish. So for every 1.5 kg of feed given, it puts on 1.5 kg of weight. The inverse of this is 67% (weight / feed).
I did the same calculation for my baby, and found a baby is *almost* as efficient as a factory farmed broiler chicken.
Congrats on the baby!
Also this is really interesting data, I knew babies grows fast but hadn’t thought about the efficiency
