Jersey Giants I believe, but I could be wrong.

Cochins and Brahmas get pretty tall too, like sumo wrestlers

My Sussex Roo is huge!

Probably some of the game birds or Asil or something like that.

Malay are the main ones if you're going for height, and i believe weight as well (but could be wrong on that). They're commonly between 32-36" Possibly taller, i've heard of one near 40" but i only believe it when i see it!

I agree with Daniel and Pop's it is the Malay. Malay's are one big chicken.
I also have to say a Madagascar Fowl can get big all so..
