Have owned for a bit over a year now. These are big birds and they do eat a lot while growing. By adulthood they seem to eat about the same as everyone else. The cockerels especially can use high protein or game feed. They are super easy to sex right out of the egg always and are pretty hardy overall. They forage well, but tend to hide eggs if you leave them out too much. They are not fliers and can be kept in fencing similar to orpingtons. I have not had any go broody. Molt was light this fall. They did need lights up after molt to start laying again. Always gentle, but a bit "slow", if you know what I mean
Took a rooster to auction and buyers joked that they could probably ride him home
