Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a resin coated carrier for stably charging toner with an external additive having a large particle size added thereto for a long time and preventing blocking of a developer; a two-component developer; a developing device; and an image forming apparatus. SOLUTION: The resin coated carrier is produced so as to satisfy the following formulas (1) and (2). Formula (1): log(Mb/Ma)>2. Formula (2): 0.5≤-log(A/B)≤2.5. In formula (1), Ma represents a weight average molecular weight of a silicone resin having a minimum weight average molecular weight, and Mb represents a weight average molecular weight of a silicone resin having a maximum weight average molecular weight, both silicon resins being included in a resin coating layer 2b. In formula (2), A represents a volume resistivity value (Ω/cm) in an electric field of 1,000 V/cm that is obtained by conducting a stirring test, and B represents a volume resistivity value (Ω/cm) in an electric field of 1,000 V/cm before the stirring test.
