I know you won't be able you tell the gender this young and I'm not asking for it yet, but I'll post more pictures as they grow up. Their name is Emo and my other BJG is Missy.

    Black and White Jersey Giant

    So I have 1 Black Jersey Giant Roo and 8 hens. I have had them for about 2 years and got a few chicks from them but never one like this one. He’s 7 months old now and he’s black and white. I thought it was so strange because all of mine are fully black and any chicks before him had white when...

    Laced Jersey Giant

    Jersey Giant chick question

    I have a Jersey Giant chick that is 4.5 weeks old. Is it normal for them to look like this at this age? Its my first J.G. It looks like a Roo but maybe its just the breed?

    Need help identifying a chick!

    Hello everyone! So I bought 8 chicks a little over a month ago, and one of them, I was told, was a Black Jersey Giant. Right off the bat, it didn’t really look like one, and I was wondering if it was an Americauna. At this point, I’m truly not sure, but I definitely don’t think it’s a Jersey...

    Bantam silky Jersey Giant cross

    I have a chick that is a cross between a black bantam silkie (hen) and a white JG (Roo) I know crazy right. She got out and I couldn't catch her for 3 days so she was with the big chickens. I collected her eggs from the yard and thought I'd try to hatch them. And sure enough she had been bred...

    Fine versus Coarse Meat

    I’ve heard that, for example, Dorkings and Bresse have fine meat, while Cornish and Jersey Giants have coarse meat. I have only eaten store bought chicken and self-slaughtered Buff Orpingtons. Can someone explain the texture (and if applicable the taste) differences between Coarse and fine meat...
