This is a 5 month JG cockerel. Since he is hatchery stock he is no where as impressive as a professionally bred bird but you get the idea of the large size.

My buff brahma hen is HUGE. She far outsizes my former big girls, 2 wyandottes and an Austrolorpe. She is taller than them by at least 4 inches. Probably weighs 10 poounds or more...and she's just a 5 month old pullet that JUST started laying.

He's GORGEOUS! I'm only allowed to have a banty rooster, per DHs wish, but my little banty is the cutest little guy ever. He sounds like a windup toy when he crows. He's a little Mille Fleur D'Uccle, named Feisty. Very funny to watchh him with all my full siized ladies. I have 19 hens, and only 5 of them are anywhere close to his size....but he's certainly making a go of it! I saw him with one of my EE girls and he covered her just fine....for about 45 seconds! What a champ!
