The average weight of a boiler hen, typically used for meat production, ranges from 4 to 6 kilograms (about 8.8 to 13.2 pounds) at market maturity. The exact weight can vary based on the breed, age, and production practices. Generally, these hens are raised specifically for their meat rather than egg production.
