Wow... keep them coming... I am so amazed!

Yeah, you gotta weigh Nugget again and get a current pic.

Debi, tell Ken to pic up a scale at the feed store... that BLRW and BO are HUGE.

and to think that Nugget weighs more than that big meaty!!

Ya no kidding. A regular chicken that is 23 pounds is ABSOLUTELY HUGE! Our meaty was deigned to grow big and heavy but if any of my birds were as tall as Nugget and weighed 23 pounds I would be afraid of it

This meaty is scary enough when he's ticked. I dont want to imagine a rooster that big being able to jump to my midsection

My big blue cochin boy, may he rest in peace. We had to dig a big hole for him.

And Little B*stard, the Jethro Bodean of the chicken world. Big and stupid he is. If anyone has any idea what he is, feel free to clue me in. That's a 2x4 that his feet are wrapped around.

Well feeding one like him just might be a problem round here!!!

Well that's what its going to turn into if these monstrous chickens start procreating with others of their size.

Tyrannosaurus Chix. A new breed, comes in different colours, feather or clean legged. Highly dangerous, will peck eyes out for meal worms. Will stomp on for treats in general. Handle with care, full body armor required. Roosters at your own risk.

I found a picture of such a specimen:

(author and origin of this picture unknown to me: thanks whoever you are!)

Yes raroo, our experiments will probably bring humanity to its end...

...and the beginning of the age of the chicken!

I am hoping I will be able to enter Jaques into this soon. he is my Partridge Rock cockerel and he is just four months old but he has very thick legs, he looks like he will be hefty. I'll check back in a few more months!! I think someone should turn the picture of Nugget stepping onto the table into a LOLCat...

Heres my big boy - Tex the barred rock roo

Not sure how old he is but he weighs about 5Kg (sorry we're metric here

)

I love just watching him - hes so majestic
