Looks like a Peking but isn't a bantam

I'm probably being extremely dense but I don't really know an awful lot about different breeds. We were out at an amusement park yesterday and they had the absolutely gorgeous chickens! They looked exactly like the photos I've found online of the Peking, and what I've read so far suggests these are the original bantam.

The thing is, these chickens were HUGE!!! Was just wondering what breed they were if anyone can shed some light. Would love to get a couple. Absolutely LOVED the fluffy legs

I'm betting what you actually saw were Cochins! They get pretty large, and boy do they have the feathers.

I just recently fell in love with cochins myself!
