what is the largest breed of chicken

[nicktrkula]

I have wondered for the longest time what it is

The largest recognized, standard breed of chicken is the Jersey Giant with roosters typically weighing 13 lbs. (sometimes more) and hens 10 lbs. Cornish X Rocks can exceed the weights of Jersey Giants, but they are hybrids and not true breeds. The largest chicken ever bred was the White Sully, a hybrid developed by Grant Sullens from West Pont, CA. who continually crossed Rhode Island Whites with other breeds until he developed a super sized chicken. White Sully roosters could exceed 23 lbs. and were so ferocious that one male rooster named "Weirdo' killed two cats and crippled a dog. As far as I have been able to determine, the last White Sully died sometime in the 1990s.

Sorry, but I don't think any of them exist anymore. They were a temporary Frankenstein monster chicken experiment. )

Why not? That's what Grant Sullens did.
