Chickens are raised by farmers almost everywhere because they are a source of eggs and popular, inexpensive meat.
We are accustomed to the fact that these birds weigh only a few kilograms and do not seem very large in size.
However, some representatives of the species managed to surprise their breeders.
Which chickens are the largest?
Rooster from Great Britain
This amazing bird has a nickname - Rooster Coburn. It is noteworthy that the rooster has grown incredibly large: with a height exceeding 90 centimeters, the bird's weight is about 11 kilograms.
The rooster is very brave, since it can easily protect its relatives even from wild animals.
Big Snow from Australia
This bird became known in the early 90s of the last century. The Australian rooster also had impressive dimensions, as its weight exceeded 10 kilograms.
Little John from Great Britain
The irony is that Little John is one of the largest roosters on the planet, standing at over 65 centimeters tall.
It is noteworthy that the rooster lives on a very large territory, comprising several hectares. Also, the bird is not averse to trying popcorn and sandwiches.
