Biggest chickens

[19Dawn76]

I was at the state fair this week and I saw some cochins and buff orphingtons that were HUGE. I mean I have a 6 month old cochin and some 6 month old BO s but the ones I saw at the fair were like twice as big as mine.

What is the biggest breed of chicken?

I have heard that the Jersey Giants are the largest, but I think there a few breeds that are comparable in size to the JGs.

Here's a similar thread from a while back that has great info.

My largest hen is a Delaware.

My largest roo is a Partridge Cochin.

I'm going to be getting a mate for him on Thursday...
