Jersey Giant: Size, Egg Laying, Colors, Temperament and More…

The Jersey Giant breed is very aptly named. 

It is the largest purebred chicken in the US and probably the world! The only other breed that comes close are the Brahmas’ – we will discuss them in a future article. 

Once seen, this splendid bird is unlikely to be forgotten since its size alone makes an impression on you. They are, in fact, gentle giants. 

Today we will take a look at how the Jersey Giant came to be and the benefits this bird offers to chicken keepers and admirers alike. 

In addition, we will discuss the size, egg-laying capabilities, and temperament of this wonderful bird.

  1. They are very mild mannered birds. I saw a hen once produce an egg the size of a small emu egg. I was gianormous! The poor girl was in labor doing it.
