This breed is believed to have been developed in the United States from various breeds of chickens originating in China. This is the largest breed of chicken, with roosters often towering up to 30” tall and hens a bit smaller. They are considered a dual-purpose chicken with roosters weighing on average from 12–15 pounds and the hens 8 – 10 pounds. They are very hardy birds and lay about 200 eggs a year.
This breed was originally developed in England as a dual-purpose chicken and are considered rare today. They are a striking bird built like a bowling ball. They are low to the ground, very heavy and round with rich chocolate striping down their long plumage. They are very laid back and have an excellent nature. They are terrific for families.
