Giant chickens

[Bluerosesd]

I don’t know if you have seen the video and pictures of the HUGE HUGE chickens but what kind are they? I am thinking the ones I seen are the white brahama breed. My question is this are those really huge or are they a special breed? When I started out I was going to get a couple of those but as I did my research I am leaning toward EE and silver laced Wyandotte and a couple barred rocks. Now I am just curious about those huge chickens!

Like Joeschooks said the SLW are cool birds, the pic on my avatar is actually a gold laced Wyandotte on my grandson's head. She's a hilarious bird and a pretty good layer too

Hi there!
I am assuming you're referring to the video of the Light Brahma chicken that went viral for a while.
The Light Brahma is a large chicken breed and can weigh over 8 lbs.
My rooster Dezi is a Light Brahma and he is the absolute sweetest guy I've had! Light Brahma hens are also known to be docile and decent layers of a medium size brown egg.
EE are a great choice also, though my EE's tend to be a bit flightier than my brahmas or my orpingtons.
Good luck with your flock!!! You'll find a lot of interesting breeds as you go along in your chicken endeavors!

Yes I think I’ve seen the video you’re talking about. It’s a Brahma if I’m not mistaken. They are big birds but that is an especially ginormous rooster!

I love SLW and plan to hatch a few on my next hatch!

Hello Blue, . If it's the video's that I'm thinking about I'm pretty sure those are Giant Brahma's. Not positive that we're talking about the same vids though

I LOVE that she's on your grandsons head!! I'm glad to see that happens at someone else's house too!
