Answer:

34 pounds

Explanation:

One month, Blue will be 6

Two month, Blue will be 10

Three month, Blue will be 14

Four month, Blue will be 18

Five month, Blue will be 22

Six month, Blue will be 26

Seven month, Blue will be 30

Eight month, Blue will be 34

By adding 4 every month, you will get 34

or

4 x 8 = 32

32 + 2 = 34

Sorry if my reasoning doesn't make sense-

Anyways, hopefully this helped! :D
