Hello there! And It is wonderful to have you here with us, and that Brahma is huge!

I have a Brahma hen who is very large, about 8 or 9 pounds I guess (give or take a little).

Good luck with finding a Brahma! I promise that it shouldn't be hard to find a Brahma, they are very popular Best wishes!

Hmm, I'm guessing at least 10 lbs I would love to pack a huge rooster like that around the house

be aware that he looks huge because of the setting, in the first picture look next to him there is a cinder block and he's puffed up and close to the camera

in the 2nd picture he is being held by a 5yo

yes brahmas are very big, i have had a couple BUT they are not really that gigantic

I don't think many of them get that HUGE but, they are Big birds. I remember the videos for that enormous Brahma. I think it was tricked out to some extent, small pop door in the coop - so the bird would have to inch himself out through the opening very slowly. Also young child holding bird like that makes it look immense.
