I won't tell you to get a new scale, I'll tell you to get some new shrooms.

Well, sorry, but....get a scale. It is IMPOSSIBLE to eyeball shrooms, I've had huge stems and caps that weighed out to very little, and single small shrooms that weighed 4gs. If you don't have a scale, it's impossible to tell.

i never use a scale, but I've eaten enough mushrooms to know what I'm doing and I can handle the consequences of an unexpected dose.
without a scale it's impossible to judge a dosage, trying eating half and waiting. Eat the other half if you want more.

get a scale man, they only are 25$ or so (if you look carefully you can even order them cheaper. look for diamond scales, pocket scales or gram scales)
we don't even know what kind of shrooms you have, how should we be able to tell (you need a scale anyway, period.)

I have always eyeballed it, every time I've ever done mushrooms. It's easy IMO, if you know what you're doing. It's generally not recommended though obviously. You need to know exactly what species of mushroom you have, the potency of it, etc, etc.. I always started off small when trying a new species and worked my way up.

indeed, and some shrooms are much less dense so loads of mushrooms are needed for 1 dose while with some other strains (or even the same strain) only a few are sufficient

Yeah if you've ever gotten rid of bud for any substantial amount of time you get used to feeling shit out. I used to be able to hold bud or a baggie of any substance in my hand and guess the weight, always got within 0.1 - 0.3 of the correct weight. It's been so long I doubt I'd be able to do it now though. 
Remember a US nickel is your friend. They weigh out to exactly 5.0g's. US One dollar bills weigh exactly 1.0g.
It's probably not safe (mentally ) to eyeball or feel out a mushroom dose but to each their own.

To me, that looks to be around a gram of dried Cubensis (+/- 0.5g) so, at most 1.5g, at least .5g. None of which I'd consider a "good size" dose.
Get 3-5x that much and party. You'll barely feel what's in your hand when you eat it, which I have a sneaking suspicion you will, no matter what we all say.

You'll need at least double that to get an "effect".

Yeah, wait till the McDonalds is getting digested, and then I'd say it'd be safe to eat all of those. You're brain will definately feel something, and you may even see a little bit of something.

Technically speaking you can eat them right now if you'd like. Just chew them up till they are a liquid-like mush and hold them in your mouth for a solid 10 minutes before swallowing them.

It looks to me like 1-2gr, or about half an 1/8oz.
This for me is a strong dose, but then again I'm 3x more sensitive to psychedelic than most.
I think, if you wait until you have an empty stomach, there is a good chancve that it definitely will be interesting, if potency is average you got 6-12mg there and those are good mid-range psychotherapeutic doses.
