What type of chicken breed is my chicken?

Try to get a full body shot. From the sounds of it, he could be a Cornish X -- or maybe a Cornish X/White Jersey Giant cross??

Here's a picture of his body... and a new close up of his head.

White Jersey Giant.

Thank you very, very much...now I can research his kind and get him some female friends.

Wow, that is a huge rooster! And a very odd comb.

Haggard is Huge! I mean, to me he's HUGE! I dunno for his breed... but wow! Comb is cool, too. I'd be very proud of him!

You don't have to get hens that are the same breed as the roo, fyi. He would be very happy with whatever breeds or mixes you find for him. But, jersey giants are really cool, so you could stay with that breed. Most hatcheries carry them.

also if he tried mounting a smaller breed well she wouldn't like that. get him some more jersey giants or another larger breed.
