Black Jersey Giant Day Old Chicks

The term "giant" is right for these tall, stately birds with shiny black feathers. In fact, Black Jersey Giant Chickens are the largest dual-purpose chicken breed. The breed was developed in the 1880s in New Jersey by breeders who wanted a large roasting bird. While Jersey Giants grow to a large size, they do it slowly.

Jersey Giants lay around 3-5 large brown eggs per week. They are a sustainable heritage breed and have a calm and docile personality. Read more about the Black Jersey Giant Chicken on our Breed Spotlight over on the Meyer Hatchery Blog.

Average mature weight: Roosters 13 lbs., Hens 10 lbs.
