Beautiful example of high quality Ko Shamo from Japan. This photo was borrowed from Julia Keelings book on Japanese Shamo, section: Ko Shamo.

They are not larger than German, Australian, South African Malays. Not sure on Shamo. I like the Gigantes. Posed with people who are smaller than say an average American makes them appear larger than they are. Any bird who flat-footed stands 28 inches should impress anyone. The stretching to a meter is unfair as a Shamo and a Malay should have very different posture. After about 17 years I have yet to see a picture of any chicken looking over top a yard stick. Have seen hundreds in front of 2x4 wire standing about 23 to 24 inches with caption reading this bird is 32 inches tall.

This is the result of a saigon ganoi bred to a barred meat bird. These two are full brother and sister.
