PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a carrier exhibiting stable charge providing ability in which sufficient charge can be provided to toner having a small particle diameter, and no image contamination such as fog caused by toner scattering via lack of electrification is generated, a carrier capable of maintaining a charging level of no interference for image formation even under the image forming condition at which a charging level for printing a number of prints continuously is difficult to be maintained, and a two-component developer composed of the carrier. SOLUTION: The carrier is obtained by coating a surface of a core particle made of ferrite possessing at least Mg with a resin, wherein the core particle has a ratio of the number of irregular-shaped core particles of ≤5%, based on the total number of core particles, and the surface of the core particle has a maximum grain diameter of 2-5 μm.
