There is no answer to that question. Weights are extremely variable. Here is a link to a page in which I document the average weights of 20 CH BPs. Be sure to compare the weights on the Individual charts as well, and you will see there is no "Should be"'s

There really isn't an answer for that question. Depends on genetics, when he started eated, if he's eaten regularly from birth, how often he eats, what he eats, if he's ever gone off fed......
