Yup he is gonna be a huge dog. We had LGD before for the sheep but have never heard of them for poultry until lately. When dad's outside dog goes to doggy heaven I plan on getting another one. We used to have to put a large chain around their necks conected to a truck tire just to slow the dogs down so the lambs could escape. This would last for about two months then they seemed to learn they they are not play toys. We lost 4 lambs with our first dog and had to do this with all 4 of them. We were getting the Marramma's and Great Pyranesse. All the dogs lived in the barn with the sheep even as puppies.
